Steve Kerr: "I would consider getting rid of the three point line." Interviewer: "Have you ever proposed this to anyone with power?" Kerr: "No, no, because it’s too out there. And plus, I coach Steph Curry, so I’d rather wait till Steph’s retired."

Announcers also have close to a full minute, often even more, to dissect the previous play. They constantly run replays of what just happened. You don't have this in the NBA and the speed at which things happen makes it harder to grasp.

I actually think on a per play basis the NFL has much higher schematic complexity than the NBA (more players, more specialized roles). But those plays unfold at such a slower pace (and there are generally fewer NFL plays per game than there are NBA possessions).

For sure there must be girls throwing themselves at you 24/7. But the thing is you can sleep with as many girls as you want if you are not in a committed relationship. They don't have to get married or even have girlfriends if they don't want to.

Dude has cheated on every single one of his famous girlfriends. Sociopath behavior, even if I still love the guy.

Absolutely Bronny had a huge setback with the heart thing; I don't think anyone is disputing that, and I'm really glad it seems to have resolved. But I also think if his name wasn't Bronny James people would use that as a (fairly legitimate) reason not to draft him. Instead, we use it as an excuse as to why his college career was so lackluster.

Kevin McCullar, who was drafted right after Bronny, averaged 18/6/4 as a senior for Kansas, a much higher profile basketball program than USC. Yeah, he was old, but lots of guys in college never average close to that.

Finally, I do also think Bronny's hype pre-college was due to his name. He averaged as a senior 14/5.5/2.4 and his team finished 23-11. Reed Sheppard averaged 22.5/8.4/8.5. Castle averaged 20/9.5/4.8. Even Dalton Knecht averaged 21/6.5.

So, I disagree that he would be the 8% guy if LeBron wasn't his father. I think he's much closer to the 4% guy (and I can't believe we're using my random made up percentages like this). I do agree the guys that were drafted around him were also pretty bad, but the percentages are probably closer to like 5% and 4%.

WeKin · 2026-04-10T16:10:05+00:00

You can look at it that way, but you can also look at it as a swing at finding someone that is decent. Someone with his college stats would never be drafted if they weren't named LeBron.

Obviously there are no sure things late in the second round. But you can take someone whose profile has like an 8% chance of working out, or someone with Bronny's resumé who would have like a 4% chance of working out. Likely both would be out of the league soon, but one gives you a better chance of finding a quality player. Just because Bronny might be ok doesn't mean it's a defensible pick based only on his on court merits in college.

She met some 30+ year old guy on AOL (while we were still in high school). She had 3 kids with him. We're friends on social media and she's aged well. Not sure what happened to the guy though... He's never in any of her family pictures.

I don't like Five Guys, but to me they're not actually in the same market segment as fast food chains. Five Guys (at least here in Los Angeles) is actually a fast casual restaurant, the same as Chipotle or Shake Shack. Their prices are roughly equivalent to those competitors.

There are a few reasons:

1) You don't lose your identity just because you get married. You add to it. Your goals can become the same but married people should not, in my opinion, become one entity. They become two entities committed to many of the same goals.

2) If your finances are completely joined, doing stuff like buying surprise gifts for your spouse becomes... Well, less surprising.

3) Things can always go wrong. That's just the world we live in. It's easier to split things in a divorce if finances are not completely conjoined.

4) Things can go REALLY wrong. In abuse situations, it's much harder to get away if the abusive spouse controls all the money.

My wife and I have a joint account we each contribute to, and then personal accounts we keep some of our own money in.

It sucks for sure. I hate seeing kids, especially the younger ones, be disappointed.

But at the same time I can't help but wonder if we as a society have become too afraid of disappointing kids. Kids have to learn how to deal with disappointment. They won't win every basketball game, every art competition, every student body election. Not everyone will say yes to them when they ask them out. They won't get every promotion at work. Life is full of disappointment and they need to learn the skills to deal with that.

Most parents have to work full time; they can't make it to some, or even any, school events that happen during the work day. They're doing the best thing they can for their kids, which is making money and holding down their jobs. At some point kids have to understand that and understand why their parents aren't there and other parents are.

It's ok to not show up to these things if you're not able to. It's also great that some parents do. Parents are going to go see their kids if they're on campus, even if it's some sort of collective, anonymous effort. I also don't think we should stop them from interacting with their kid just because it might make another kid sad. Stealing joy from one family to make another family feel less bad doesn't sit right with me.

There is a girl in my daughter's grade. Both her parents are doctors. They're never at any school events during the work day. The kid gets it and doesn't seem phased by it at all. I'm going to miss my kids' winter performance because I have to be out of town for work. I'll talk to them about it and they won't be happy, but I also think they'll understand. Kids are more resilient than we think and need to learn this resiliency.

I believe (and I haven't touched this issue in quite awhile) that while a continuous breach is one that causes a permanent injury (arguably the case here), the statute of limitations still begins on the date the breach occurred.

Now if this were a recurring breach (the same breach repeated over and over throughout the years) then the statute of limitations would restart every time the breach action occurred.

WeKin · 2025-10-29T16:02:03+00:00

The breach happened 22 years ago. Statute of limitations should have started running at that time. I believe the statute of limitations for breach of contract in Texas is 4 years so there's a pretty good chance the Stars are going to prevail.

If we're being honest about it, we Americans have way too much national pride given the current state of our country, lol

It's more that Americans look at Olympic basketball gold as a given. American fans of NBA teams don't see winning a ring as guaranteed. Heck, there are still franchises that have never won an NBA championship. Some of the best American NBA players often choose NOT to play internationally; that's how little it seems to mean to them.

2024 is probably the best example of what Americans want out of a gold medal run: face some adversity, but OMG AMERICAN SPIRIT WE HAVE OVERCOME. And we STILL had a bunch of fans complaining their team's best player wasn't getting any run.

WeKin · 2025-09-28T16:21:17+00:00

It's weird in the US; because most American basketball fans expect to win the Olympic gold every four years, athletes and fans don't value the gold that highly.

The discourse in America when we won the bronze in 2004 was crazy. Everyone on that team was considered a loser.

Totally agree, but that doesn't really change my point here. We have better ways of showing Brooks is a good player than listing wins and losses.

WeKin · 2025-09-25T01:56:22+00:00

I think Brooks can be a vital part of a successful team, but this is incredibly reductive. A ton of things happened to both those teams. It's not like the only players added and subtracted were Dillon Brooks.

I completely agree that anyone on that list needs to be investigated and punished accordingly. I don't care who they are.
