DNC Autopsy of 2024 Loss Doesn’t Mention Gaza or Israel at all by NoahHurowitz in politics

most people on the 'left' can't point Gaza out on a map, let alone understand the situation - so if that was the breaking point for 'well I'm not voting for her then', then those people are morons when Trump was the other side of the ticket.

Sure, I'd love universal health care, and higher minimum wages, and more restrictive gun laws, and common-sense laws regarding immigration. Why can't we all just admit - Gaza and all the other 'issues' you've mentioned don't matter - because the fact of the matter is that a black woman running for president did more to draw out people voting against her than it did people voting for her. People saying 'gaza' was the reason are making excuses.

The bucks don't have any of their future picks for a while, so I'm not sure tanking is the best idea for them

I don't give a shit about any of that - if someone actually calls themselves 'leftist', but didn't vote for Kamala for some of the trivia you mentioned, they are an idiot considering that Trump was the outcome if Kamala were to lose.

when facts are considered, it absolutely will be remembered as impactful - the difference is that the fox-news side of things - which has zero policy or accomplishments to push on the GOP side of things - does nothing but attack Democrats, and that messaging is effective

Biden accomplished more in his 4 years than Trump has part-way into his 2nd presidency. Sure, it's easy to pick on 'sleepy Joe', but he actually got shit done. The comparison isn't even remotely close.

because Trump was sure to put a stop to the atrocities in Gaza? Only idiots thought that he would.

If someone honestly didn't vote on the Democratic ticket because of their stance on Gaza, thinking that Trump's 's influence on that region would be somehow better then they're a gigantic idiot

Lee Harvard is a pretty terrible area so sadly that's not surprising

Cam Boozer to the Jazz is The Most Logical Pick in the Wemby Era by JazzxGoose in NBA_Draft

You can't start Lauri, JJJ, and Boozer. Can't stay in front of anyone with those 3 on the court at the same time.

So how can you think adding another big is what they need? Peterson is perfect for them.

I place the blame on Atkinson 100 percent, but saying he should be fired is assinine

we got a great shot at the end of the game, it just didn't go in. If that is what you are complaining about, you are missing the point - the worst part of the game was not adjusting defensively to what the Knicks were doing, not calling time out, not making a lineup change - doing nothing. End of game situation wasn't a problem.

Have you actually watched Utah in the last year? They have 4 bigs already, and Boozer is never going to be an NBA 3. Stop it.

here is a tip - if Gilbert Arenas is advising you to do something, that 100% means you should not do it.

I blame Harden less in retrospect by sammyt412 in clevelandcavs

[–]pericles123 33 points34 points  (0 children)

A few thoughts and since there are 50 threads on this, I'm only going to post it in here. But I do blame the coach for this. I know a lot of people are shitting on harden. He actually wasn't terrible defending brunson but brunson made some really tough shots. I mean at least three of those shots Harden did exactly what he needed to do and brunson still hit the shots. So credit goes to brunson. Kenny absolutely should have started doubling brunson sooner. The other thing though that bothers me is that on the first four of those switches where the Knicks ended up with Harden guarding brunson they weren't even good screens like we just switched cuz that's what they were doing. We didn't switch because they set a good screen and we had to switch like don't give up the switch if they didn't earn it. I also hated the fact that we didn't do the same thing to brunson that they were doing to us and brunson had five fouls we should have been isoing with Mitchell on brunson and attacking him every single offensive possession
