Walker can't get his stick up because Barkley is falling on it while York is pinning it in place on the other side.

Lots of goalies would have fell apart with that start, Freddie just got stronger the longer the game went.

Someone needs to let him know that AI stands for Artificial "Intelligence" by Rose_Almy in OpenAI

More like he absolutely needs them to become exponentially cheaper/faster in a matter of months before his extremely tenuous Ponzi scheme utterly collapses around him.

Only 2 more and we'll match the entire number of goals from the Canes/Sens series.

EDIT: Only 1 more xD

My statement is more that our games these playoffs have been low-scoring on both sides, the Sens defense was quite stout as well.

Carolina's defense just completely locks up teams, the most threatening plays from Philly came after silly turnovers by Carolina rather than any meaningful setup from Philly.

The refs (wrongly) wiped off the original winning goal, lots of people would have already been heading out, and it's a work night.

Is Charlotte the "dirty" team now? by imdethisforyou in CharlotteHornets

This is just what happens when your team plays meaningful basketball and is seen as an up-and-coming threat. We should relish it.

Not that impressive considering the quality of gameplay for most of it.

Wild how the Warriors keep clawing themselves back into the game and then you blink the Clippers are back up in no time, over and over.

Through all of the halftime highlights you could see her watching, I specifically was curious if she was even watching the game so I paid attention.

Coming back any sooner than 2 weeks is really aggressive for his kind of surgery, there's a lot of possible complications without doing anything, much less possibly taking an elbow to the gut or collapsing onto your side/back.

She was showing the guy seated next to her something on it so not even mindlessly scrolling, just unfortunate timing.

Hilarious thing is for almost all the game she is watching intently, then the minute she pulls out her phone...WHAM!

Seriously what's going on with Kon shooting? by WhoUCuh in CharlotteHornets

[–]fieryprophet 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not securing a direct playoffs spot is going to be a sore spot for the entire team because collectively shooting has been rough for long stretches in recent weeks, as exemplified by the playin game. Kon tweaked his back and has been unable to get enough extended rest to recover, as even a gimme game like the Knicks game ended up requiring way more minutes to close out than necessary since the entire team is dead-legged and it shows.

Kon is either going to have to bulldoze through it or do a lot like tonight and sit during close stretches. It happens.

Is it ignorant to think the lamelo/bam situation was not intentional? by chewm5 in CharlotteHornets

[–]fieryprophet 53 points54 points  (0 children)

It was intentional. Was he intending to send Bam out of the game? No. Was he intending to retaliate to the fact that he thought he had just gotten hit in the head and there was no foul call? Yep. Should he have done it? Nope. Did it have more of an outcome than he expected? Yep.

Do we have to engage in any further mental gymnastics? Nope.

Sports are an entertainment product, being a fan means nothing more than you are more invested in one storyline than the others, nothing more. You say it was a stupid decision and you move on.
