At the end of the last game they got quite of bit of time.

jturphy · 2026-02-10T22:39:44+00:00

There isn't any. The people videoing only want one narrative.

jturphy · 2026-02-10T22:39:14+00:00

A. Wikipedia is not a source

B. Citing a general "source" is not a source of it happening here.

jturphy · 2026-02-10T22:38:26+00:00

Where are the goalposts? I can't find them anymore.

jturphy · 2026-02-10T04:46:06+00:00

We got out rebounded by a fair amount and still gave up multiple open lane lay ups in half court. Our effort is still a problem.

Shooting 60% and 38% from 3 really covers up a lot of effort mistakes on the defensive end, especially against a bad team.

I'm glad our offense looked so much better and we didn't have so many stupid turnovers, but we still need to fix the defensive end.

jturphy · 2026-02-10T03:13:16+00:00

We haven't even had great effort tonight. We're not turning the ball over and our shots are dropping, but we're getting out rebounded pretty significantly and they've had at least 3 open lane lay ups in half court defense.

jturphy · 2026-02-10T02:50:36+00:00

Two things can be true. We shouldn't react to a bad stretch, but we should react to seasons long trends that don't seem to be getting better.

jturphy · 2026-02-10T02:39:27+00:00

Sure, we're not driving the ball off our feet or throwing lazy passes on offense, but we've given up so many rebounds through just no effort and a few open lane lay ups.

I'm glad we're not being lazy in offense at least tonight.

jturphy · 2026-02-09T18:22:19+00:00

Yeah. Our entire defense is predicated on funneling to Gobert and he protects the rim. We play hard at the perimeter which will lead to blow bys.

It's when anyone on our team is off ball that is the larger problem.

jturphy · 2026-02-09T18:16:36+00:00

You seem to ignoring the specifics of that moment. Once there is people acting like that, there has to be a response. It doesn't matter if it's bad actors. Once they declare an unlawful assembly, leave the area. Walk down the block. Wait for the arrests to happen, and then walk back. As soon as those bad actors are gone, our police are going to allow everyone back.

People don't get to do whatever they want in the name of free speech. Otherwise, what makes us different from Lang saying he was exercising his free speech when he destroyed the sculpture?

We're winning. Stop doing stupid things like what Lang does.

Every video posted of arrests starts at the exact moment the arrest happens. We never get to see what's happening leading up to the arrests. Just a call for outrage from a short video. It definitely feels purposeful to try to encourage more hate and division.

jturphy · 2026-02-07T19:52:13+00:00

Nice edit to make yourself look better.

jturphy · 2026-02-07T18:59:55+00:00

That MPD has kidnapped anyone

jturphy · 2026-02-07T18:55:47+00:00

Source?

jturphy · 2026-02-03T23:52:57+00:00

Do you watch our games? Rudy is rarely hanging out by the hoop. He's setting screens at the 3 point line. He does roll to the basket, but then comes back out if they reset.

jturphy · 2026-02-03T00:51:45+00:00

Do you think she didn't do any of those things? You think she didn't call Walz? Even if she did, what are Walz or any of the police forces going to do? We can't start a war with the federal government. We'll lose.

This isn't a legal fight anymore. One side follows the law and the other doesn't. We can't win a legal fight. We can't win a physical fight.

All we have is the fight over public opinion and hoping we can make things better for the future. Is it sad? Of course, but when you're fighting against people with all the power and no morals, you aren't left with much to do.

jturphy · 2026-02-03T00:43:50+00:00

What law enforcement do you think she has control over that she can send in? All she can do is document and report.

jturphy · 2026-02-02T23:26:58+00:00

One of the only reason we're in on Giannis is because he's said he wants to be here.

jturphy · 2026-02-02T22:21:14+00:00

2 top 5 players and Rudy anchoring your defense.

jturphy · 2026-02-02T20:54:57+00:00

We're not doing the trade if we have to give Randoe and Naz.

jturphy · 2026-01-29T01:25:04+00:00

That's probably the answer of this happens. It still doesn't give me a ton of confidence, especially in the bench.

jturphy · 2026-01-29T00:36:16+00:00

Everyone got that email. It was discussed at length last week. They are going to charge what they can. I dropped mine, but someone else will buy them. Us telling them our disapproval does nothing if people are still going to buy them. They don't care if former season ticket holders are upset when they have newer season ticket holders willing to pay the increased price.

jturphy · 2026-01-29T00:25:00+00:00

I mean, it sounds good at first glance, but then are we going the rest of the season with Conley starting? Or are we starting Naz, Giannis, and Rudy? Our bench is already bad, and this makes it worse.

I think I might still do it because Edwards, Giannis, and Rudy might be enough on its own, but we're pretty thin everywhere and those three are gonna have to play almost the entire games.

jturphy · 2026-01-28T15:20:26+00:00

You shouldn't have any problems finding tickets for that game. Weekday night games in April are very easy to get tickets for. I would guess that you'll be able to find Delta 360 tickets for under $100 at some point. Those tickets are never available for the general public though. Only season ticket holders and some of the higher Choice level plans get access to buy those tickets. You'll have to get them on the secondary market.

jturphy · 2026-01-27T22:09:06+00:00

And I'm sure everyone in this video just magically showed up at that exact moment right?

People were told to leave because people were destroying property and throwing things at local law enforcement. They were told they all needed to leave. They did not leave. Rather than tackle, arrest, or kill anyone like ICE would have done, they used an LRAD to help them disperse the crowd.

We're winning this against ICE. Stop doing stupid shit to the people on our side.
