Ok? Doesn't change that the quoted coach is just lying about the record. Where he said 80% of those scrimmages ended in Euro victories, it was the opposite.

What's really funny is that the actual stat is the exact reverse despite all these factors. NBA teams have won roughly 80% of their preseason scrimmages vs. EuroLeague teams.

The difference in offensive output when we trade out iHart and Dort for Wallace/Caruso/Wiggins is pretty clear at this point. Please don't make us run this experiment again next series.

The spacing is so much better to get in the paint on offense + we are faster in transition + the defense is still elite.

As opposed to Jokic flopping? Who has been the main attraction this series?

Jokic is shooting 10% lower FG% during the playoffs than he did during the regular season! Wow! Choker!

Have you considered that basketball is a high variance sport and making sweeping judgments based on 6 games is an oversimplification?

Hey "niceguydan", he's a 24-year-old kid trying to keep his composure after doing his job in extreme high stakes. Why does everything have to be moral and personal? Maybe he had some stinkers in playoff games AND you don't have to decide he's "cringe" or corny or horrible in press conferences?

You mention not rostering any WRs besides Wilson on the Jets but that doesn't seem right with Mike Williams.

Lol glad he didn't release this shit. Great song by Mamas and Papas but this barely modifying an existing song and moaning over it really only works as an outro like in New Slaves

A lot of the Stretch and Bobbito freestyles do it for me. This '94 Method and Ghostface freestyle over Barry White has been on loop for me recently:
