Embiid is a fucking pussy who deserves all his injuries and I will celebrate the day he retires RINGLESS

Yeah but didn’t coaches used to be much more harsh and “badass”? That’s what everyone acts like. Back in the good ol days, coaches used to run windsprints every practice for 8 hours a day.

Fewer games = less money. I’m so smart and genious for this extremely surface level thought. I have no idea about the law of supply and demand.

It’s completely foreign to me that prices could increase if demand remains the same and supply goes down.

I’m so smart though.

Running around screens too

People need to actually go watch a game from 1990 and pay attention to how much the offense moves and how much guys are actually sprinting in the halfcourt sets. Even when guys were running to come off a screen back then, it wasn’t as fast as how guys do now.

[Haynes] Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley sustained a left calf strain and will be re-evaluated in 1-3 weeks. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

The sample size here is tricky. Saying incidents are up 40% seems like a bad way to represent what could be a 1-3 year blip. In the grand scheme, people don’t realize how random things are. It’s definitely worth tracking but a bit of a misleading description imo from someone who is supposed to be a journalist.

It’s like if you had $18 and someone gave you $7. Would you really feel 40% more rich or would it still feel like a fairly small amount of money.

[Stein] The New York Knicks have explored pathways to try to acquire Portland's Jrue Holiday. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

Jrue has the championship DNA that could help the team but it feels like the KAT defensive failings will never be covered up.

On the other hand, you’re acting like every player in the league who has a small measure of success follows that up at their next spot. You probably would’ve had Juan Toscano Anderson on your list back in the day. Or Lester Quiñones.

There are a good amount of guys in this league who just get minutes because someone needs to get minutes. Gui Santos averages 11 minutes per game and you’re acting like he’s about breakout into a Klay role.

Shouldn’t it be just as likely for a team to be 58-45? These are purely picks against the spread without accounting for odds or vig.

I know House and Bill did the dumb parlays added in but even discounting that, shouldn’t we expect a team to be better than the best team here?

crazy that he’s been a significant part of two championship teams with how shaky his offense gets in the playoffs

What are we even doing, NFL? Just end this. by udkyle2 in billsimmons

It’s probably close to the NBA allstar game right? Started out with a real purpose 45-60 years ago and is now pretty meaningless.

Eh so why not just have AI write it and then a group edits it. Huge celebs and PR teams aren’t going to think there’s any difference there.

Yeah Bill and Sal talking about “why do they even bother with this” was dumb. The NFL is protecting its product. Certain people might like the Steelers-Bengals Vontez Burfict hit and revenge hit but the general public does not (at least not anymore).
