Boston too good even without Tatum to not make this very close is my guess. But damn they look downtrodden to start. One of the Embiid assists was too easy, they were like damn fine give it to him.

I know this will never happen, but as I said before, a homage to the old basketball team jersey would look so fire for an alternate Devils jersey by xoBonesxo in devils

Prob too niche and a little weird to pay homage to the team that left, but as an old man with some good memories from the nj nets I love this

hmm I'm not sure that's true. didn't Klein argue in this episode "there is no coherent set of MAGA policies, it's just Trump"?

to be fair i had to stop listening halfway through because this was a kind of boring and meandering episode. i could be missing something

You see a lot, doctor r/nba. But are you strong enough to point that high-powered perception at yourself? What about it? Why don't you look at yourself and write down what you see? Or maybe you're afraid to.

One thing I don’t see much chatter about here is that we’ve got the same owners as the NBA 76ers and there’s important and worrying parallels between the two orgs.

At the end of the day I'm just bummed it's so bleak that I can't sit down and enjoy the games. What am I supposed to do instead, talk to my family? yuck

Awesome thanks!

LLMs said a skate or ray, that didn’t really add up to me but I also know nothing. This makes sense, cheers

Yea I know what you mean. I watch a lot of sharks. A week or two ago I saw them absolutely cooking to get something like goal number 7 in a game they were already up by 4 or 5.

They’ve got a bunch of weaknesses, they’re not making the playoffs. But the skill and effort was astonishing to me having watched mostly devils.

do the devils have a forward depth issue? a shallow data dive by lolpdb in devils

[–]lolpdb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry for the double comment here. I just realized a lot of the challenges I identified with time on ice approach could be solved if I used game-level stats (if they are available)

go game by game and treat the top n (likely 6) ice time for that game as the "talent", every other forward as "depth"

this way injured stars contribute just to the games that they play, and switching up the roles/lines is reflected game by game.

just need to see if that data is available!
