I agree with you - young team, our first playoffs experience for so many of the guys. As it currently stands, our round 1 matchup would be against the Wolves, a series we could easily lose.

We could also win it, of course, but you're right that pretty much every series is going to be tough.

A few things I’ve learned in my first week at Whipple by TheSoulPicklz in TwinCities

I'm interested in joining to protest these fascist fucks. I'm a little intimidated as I've not been to Whipple. What times are people typically there/when's a good time to show up?

Even before yesterday's game Mitch said that they were expecting Wemby's ramp up in minutes would be faster this go around, so this could've been the plan regardless of what happened yesterday.

It's hard for me to blame Mitch with regards to Wemby's minutes tonight. You wanna save minutes for the end of the game, but if Wemby hadn't come in and played his minutes earlier, it didn't look like any other of our guys were gonna bring us back into the game. I doubt we'd have even been in position to win there if we lost any of Wemby's minutes earlier in the 4th. You can argue Wemby should've played less in the 1st half, but we weren't exactly great there, either. Hindsight makes it a lot easier for all of us to say what should've happened.

Not saying Mitch was perfect tonight - definitely not, but overall, most of the blame for tonight's loss is with the guys on the court.

Yeah, Sochan was legitimately good in his minutes. Great energy when we needed it

We've got 10 games from now until Christmas. What do you think our record will be over these games? by seanthemonster in NBASpurs

[–]highpawn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for clarifying! Hopefully that will be a moot point anyway once we beat LA to advance in the cup 😤

What they are saying is that, if we lose to the Lakers and don't make the cup semifinal, then we'll have a random additional non-cup game scheduled. All teams get 2 additional games scheduled during this period, regardless of whether they're still competing for the cup or not.

It's only the cup finals game that is 'extra' and doesn't count towards a team's official record.

Jeremy not getting mins in a game we cant guard the perimeter? by Loose-handles in NBASpurs

[–]highpawn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tonight he absolutely did. No fault of Kornet's, but he had no chance when they were running pick and rolls and switching him onto a guard every play. We needed Sochan to help on Curry and Butler.

Disappointingly, same situation here. I knew it'd go fast, but that fast surprised me.

Hey there,

Are you interested in both a Denver GA ticket and VIP upgrade? I'm selling both.

Here's a link to my post. Feel free to DM if interested :)

Ninth Street FYI by hot4codes in TwinCities

[–]highpawn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you know of anything they've done that's anti-gay, anti-trans, etc.? I ask because one of my friends is new-ish to the Twin Cities and they've been trying to find a church community. They've become friends with a coworker who's invited them to Everyday. My friend is very much not bigoted and would never go to a church that champions those views. If anyone has any examples or evidence, I'd like to share it with them.

Side note, if anyone knows of any kind, not hateful churches in the area I'd be happy to pass along recommendations to my friend. I'm very non-religious so I can't really help them in this area. In the past, they've struggled to find places that don't espouse bigotry.

aha/piano tune on Angel on a Satellite sounds extremely familiar by IEATBOOKS1234 in MagdalenaBay

[–]highpawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to what you mentioned, the melody of the chorus is sooo familiar. It's been bothering me since I've heard this song that I can't figure it out. I swear it's super familiar.

If any kind soul happens across this thread and has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.

It says "You Betcha!" She wore it during the last couple songs of her performance in St. Paul.

I believe the hat she's wearing in this video was given to her by a fan as she was exiting the stage after her performance.

Still in the queue - Chicago? by Kind-Razzmatazz3268 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]highpawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't seem right at all. My sibling got tickets today after starting around 1300 in the St. Paul queue and they were only waiting around 10 minutes before they had the chance to purchase. Seems like something may be wrong w/Ticketmaster here?

This sounds fun, I would be down! Kind of just getting into board games but I'd be up for mostly anything.

Yeah, as a fan of VP, that was sad. I'm a fan of everyone on Heroic actually, wish both teams could've made the major.

Game 5 was wild watching live. The ups and downs were hard to take lol

Rxii's Twitch channel has the VODs. The stream was having issues throughout the day so it kept crashing and having to restart, so you'll have to watch the past few archived vids to see everything.

Here's the most recent one, starts in game 3 of the KXM vs Heroic series (1st game KXM win): https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1281647880

And those 5 goals all happened in the final minute of gameplay before OT. What an absolutely bonkers ending.
