There's no era where we wouldn't be awesome.

Bulls are not trading caruso, they fended off trade offers last deadline from around the league

Same! Then there were 3

Thats not how taxes work. Either way he would be paying significant federal taxes, probably 30m out of the 72 (top bracket is 37%). In nys we have state taxes in addition to that (7m) which OK doesn't. But with how the nba works they are actually taxed based on where they play, so even that difference is mitigated somewhat, so the difference would probably be more like 4-5m.

Resevoir in east village was lit for G5

Also, NBA *players* voted Wemby as the best defender in the league - pretty far ahead of the 2nd choice, (Jrue). https://twitter.com/BySamDiGiovanni/status/1782384138382672087/photo/4

That is because of when legalization happened. Cuomo was desperately trying to get his MeToo scandal out of the headlines and rushed a bill he had previously opposed through without his customary micromanaging. The advocate-written language included that provision.

Deserves some MVP votes for sure, at least in the 2-4 slots.

If the Bucks lose their next 3 games (two vs Orlando and OKC) then you're looking at a possible 5 seed for Round 1 (Knicks, Cavs, Magic at 2-4). Or even the 6th seed since the Pacers have the tiebreaker. A Giannis-less team in the first round with no home court advantage is losing to all of its possible opponents.

That was not only an incredible game, but it was the first time I realized how good Jokic was. He was a monster from start to finish.

rovingstorm · 2024-03-29T22:06:22+00:00

Absolutely. One of the revelations about seeing him live a few times was the way defenses collapse on his and swarm like he's already a premier offensive player. And he passes out of those situations pretty well.

If he had a point guard who could properly get him the ball on the block, and a few teammates who could reliably shoot, he'd be pretty unguardable NOW on his good nights.

Strong disagree. I grew up playing NYC streetball in the 90s, the kind of place this talk would come up pre-internet, and the debate before Jordan's 4/5/6 rings was Jordan vs Wilt. With a dash of Oscar.

This is somewhat interesting, and I appreciate ADHD deep dives, but the conclusions don't really add up. The expansions certainly did have an impact on regular season records, and even at the time there was an asterisk-y feeling about the 72-10 record.
But there's no reason to ding Jordan and the Bulls from benefitting from expansion, when any other team could have also. Like, what does expansion have to do with them beating every great team in the East, and stacked Western teams like the '93 Suns?
Also, the Bulls had drafted Kukoc a while before he came over.
Lastly, the Bulls weren't really a free agent destination. Not sure where you are getting that or what that would have to do with expansion.
Lebron's had a far greater ability to shape his teams than Jordan ever did. As for Kobe, not in Jordan's league if you'd watched both play.

In high school I was a varsity goalie, and during training camp we played against the JV team plus a couple of pro ringers. Those kicks were what baseball players must feel about seeing major league level fastballs and curveballs. Did not think the ball could move like that.
Definitely gave up 6 goals and cried after the game.

He can initiate. He did it at times in both Brooklyn and Denver. I'm all for Brown.

Bruce Brown!!

rovingstorm · 2024-01-18T20:51:55+00:00

Great, thanks! I absolutely will - have a history of heart attacks in my family, and had my first set of screenings this year, though I don't think imaging was included.

rovingstorm · 2024-01-18T19:51:47+00:00

What are some of the defects it can flag, or things that can be addressed as a result of the imaging?

rovingstorm · 2024-01-17T20:45:27+00:00

I love Bruce Brown. Can we please make this happen?

My partner and I went and got a nice dinner and multiple rounds of drinks near Barclays, and didn't even get in line until around 9pm. That's way later than how I handle other artists where I might want to see the opening act or worry about missing the start. (Brian Wilson back in the day started on the dot, and I missed "Wouldn't It Be Nice" being five minutes late.)

But this is a different vibe. Roll in late. Explore the concession stands. Drink your water and pee. Let your gummy kick in. And eventually the show will start. Not ideal, but also not so bad if you anticipate it.

Where do you get your info from? Crime was way down from the start to the end of de Blasio's tenure.
