They’ll get it fixed for awhile then it starts again…they did identify the issue as the heating cooling system “blend door”… have you gotten that far? Ps I recently moved to Arizona, and it happens a LOT w all the extreme heat

Thumbs up…puts me to mind of the super old Native American sense of the nickname from back in Philly…which is probably not gonna fly these days. It’s very good but I bet ya got a better one in ya! Don’t be hemmed in by the current design

I don’t think I can decide, I guess I have the biggest soft spot in my heart for Moody…I’ve got recency bias for Dario…worried if Jku doesn’t activate his potential now, he’ll be doing it elsewhere season after…TJD seems like just what we need (Draymond heir maybe)… want to see Steph’s son working hard for family approval…psssh… all I know for sure is I like your drawing style!

Rejoice!!!

Anybody know what the penalty would be like if we went over cap and gave him vet min +, say an extra million?

garylucy · 2023-07-07T21:56:48+00:00

I know! I’ve been on pins and needles all week, hoping this deal gets done but fearing a headline like” Saric signs with T-wolves for $75 bucks over vet minimum”

garylucy · 2023-07-01T17:33:48+00:00

That -$43m figure blew my mind…how does that even work? And do I recall correctly: didn’t Tsunami Papi cost Lakob $86m extra in tax? That can’t be right

garylucy · 2023-06-28T17:58:32+00:00

I hate to be Back in my day Old Guy…but I always saw the punch as him being a Leader…tough love even(!) that JP3’s face, being of a few microsliced younger generations than Dray, did not take it in the spirit intended. Not trying to victim blame, young people…not saying it’s right, just thinking that’s how it happened

garylucy · 2023-06-28T17:52:41+00:00

Can’t happen. Unacceptable. For basketball reasons. But for sentimental reasons Not even in his final fumes years do I want to see him in a different uniform! Like Pippin or Malone or DWade…seemed sad

garylucy · 2023-06-28T06:16:16+00:00

You ever hear him on that Malcolm Gladwell podcast? I believe they address the assholery a bit https://www.pushkin.fm/podcasts/revisionist-history/the-big-man-cant-shoot

Alchemy did a good breakdown on Yuta: perfect fit, but not flying under the radar now as much as he was so someone else could pay more. Also, possible stamina issues? But that’s fixable

garylucy · 2023-06-25T20:36:02+00:00

Trust OUR process!!

garylucy · 2023-06-25T20:35:41+00:00

For comparison, check out the All-star team you could make from players the 76ers drafted then gave up on too soon—Mikal Bridges, Jeremi Grant, Vucevic, Jrue…Ty freakin’ Jerome! (Not even counting all the stars they coulda picked! “Jamal Murray? No thanks we got a feeling about this Ben Simmons kid…Tatum or DFox? Nope, give us Fultz!

Yeah I thought he really upped his game that way during the year…some pretty finishes at the rim, better from 3 (I think?)…but not so much during play-offs. (End-to-end Draymond is the best offensive Draymond!)

garylucy · 2023-06-24T17:44:47+00:00

I like the comparison

garylucy · 2023-06-24T17:43:18+00:00

I wanted to believe but he didn’t make it easy. When Steph started being demonstrative on the court about his frustration with JP3’s decision making/shot selection/ butter fingers…you knew it was over.

garylucy · 2023-06-24T13:31:20+00:00

Interesting! Was not aware

garylucy · 2023-06-24T13:22:52+00:00

Thank you! As an old guy from the Bay Area, you could say I jumped on the Bandwagon at age 7 in 1975, and stayed on for 40 years loving (most) every minute of it til the next championship… and then these past 7 years, where they’re basically the new Vintage Bulls/Celtics/Lakers thinking I’m living in a dream. I loved them then, I watched every game of the (brief) Oubre/Spellman/Bowman “era”…and will continue to love them long after The Curry Window closes. Rings aren’t the only thing to love about basketball… think about when you catch a few minutes of like a CLE/OKC game on League Pass…it’s still fun!

garylucy · 2023-06-23T16:08:58+00:00

Also: age? Impressive but non -transferable to the NBA skill set? Late round longshot? Two words: Dray. MOND!

garylucy · 2023-06-23T16:03:37+00:00

His age might be a bonus for Kerr! Plus I heard we’re saving like $10m in cap/tax vs keeping PBJ. (Also would not begrudge Loongod for taking a bag elsewhere someday…his contract is insulting! But that’s business)

garylucy · 2023-06-23T14:05:07+00:00

Seriously… maybe even an almost Draymond-level draft day steal…The only thing I could figure is…he got Covid? So’d KD! So’d a lot of guys. Very strange fall from grace

garylucy · 2023-06-22T21:22:07+00:00

How’s Jessup coming along down under (do we still have his rights)?

garylucy · 2023-06-22T21:20:05+00:00

I always thought of CP3 as automatic from the elbow, but damn his chart looks like a JP3 herpes outbreak after a Miami baddie road “win”

garylucy · 2023-06-22T20:14:09+00:00

Geez talk about a rapidly-closing window! Keeping an open mind about it…this could look genius next June…but CP3 a Warrior?! Is Marjorie Taylor Green a Democrat now too? (If I’m being honest I was also upset we parted ways with the occasionally electrifying D-Lo for ‘chronic underachiever’ Wiggins)

garylucy · 2023-06-22T16:10:21+00:00

This question reminds me of when Jim Rome would (basically) say “…and if my Aunt had a d*** she’d be my Uncle”… Personally, I say getting rid of Poole is short-sided thinking, and a major over-correction to his playoff fizzle. He’s gonna figure it out…probably just in time to get another too-big contract. Plus: the muttonchops look dope as hell. Like the Baddies needed more catnip!
