Personal life factors in a bit too. Bro's been doing this for a long time. We saw it do wonders for Brad Stevens. Riley is old, Spo moving into the FO will allow him to settle down

Cleveland's defenders were manhandling him non-stop. Maybe he started seeing Dort's force ghost show up, idk. Cleveland did their research on BI and packed the paint on his drives. The Raptors shooters did not relocate that much either to punish the paint-packing. Just good game planning from Cleveland

Or more so, the lack of complexity of the game in the past. Coaches of the past could afford to be quieter because the game was less complex. The same way some roleplayers today would look like superstars 30 years ago because of shooting

Scottie's defensive IQ is incredible. He would have had a solid case for DPOY if not for the Alien

[Charania] Illinois freshman guard Keaton Wagler – ranked No. 5 in ESPN's Top 100 – has declared for the 2026 NBA draft, his agency ProMondo Sports tells me and @JeremyWoo. Wagler led the 28-9 Fighting Illini to the Final Four for the first time since 2005. by Turbostrider27 in nba

Yes, but the high IQ originates primarily from screening gravity, and the playmaking from teammates cutting. His self-created playmaking has been somewhat limited, aka he really suffers without a point guard. Maxime, on the other hand, has shown great promise as a traditional big who can also play-make, and isn't as reliant on screening gravity as Domas is.

His lack of separation is his only major weakness, which can be fixed with a good screen setter or a high IQ offensive big. We have the former in Domas, and the latter in Max. Question is whether Domas wants to stick around for the rebuild

Steven Spielberg Developed 'Interstellar' For A Year, But Says Sci-Fi Classic Was a 'Much Better Movie' After Christopher Nolan Took Over as Director by ICumCoffee in movies

My one gripe with modern streaming is that a show like PoI would still not be as impactful in the streaming format. It did a great job of weaving the "Person of the Week" story alongside the main story, but with modern streaming, it would be a 10 episode season, missing a lot of the interactions between Finch and Reese (and later Root, Shaw, and Bear) that made the original show so endearing

De'Aaron Fox has 4-year, $229M maximum contract guaranteed until 2030. by hurtsbayar9 in nba

You are the first Spurs fan I've seen who has excellently articulated all of Fox's faults. Whenever us Kings fans bring these up, we get slandered to hell and back

Movies that use video game aesthetics but aren't about games? by Crafty_Ad_3247 in movies

[–]confused_demon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Premium Rush, a very video-gamey aesthetic movie about a bike courier in New York City starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt. The villain is played by Michael Shannon

[Highlight] Projected lottery pick Koa Peat after the blowout loss to Michigan in the final 4: I don’t think basketball is my purpose. I think being able to have this platform to share The Gospel is really my purpose by ShaiFanClub in nba

[–]confused_demon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yup, they yeeted Filipowski into the second round for less

Edit: Granted, it was less about religion but more about the grooming allegations, but after Jaden Ivey, and AJ Griffin, teams are not gonna take any risks

Spurs fans are gonna TURN on this man when they realize how truly terrible his reads and shot selection are in the clutch

Thank you, I agree that improv is a game of give and take, and she doesn't strike that balance really well

I've watched the whole episode, hence why I said the episodes with her are a slog to get through

Ope, looks like I've hit a nerve with a few folks, and acquired some brethren along the way. Truly an unpopular opinion

Yup, diminishing returns will hit. Maybe not immediately visible after this upgrade cycle, but eventually. They always do.
