This was such a great game. I feel one of the problems with the modern NBA is that there are way too many (star) players out there who are just going through the motions because all they care about is their paycheck, which makes a lot of games quite boring. That was not the case here. Pure joy to watch Lillard,…

Fun fact: “The Touching is, To Me, Off Limits,” was the original title of MC Hammer’s 1990 breakthrough single. 

Then I was told my tip (15%) was too small.

This is actually a fairly major plot point in Neil Gaiman’s ‘American Gods’. I don’t want to give too much away, but you might want to check the trunk of the car before it crashes through the ice.

The dealers got you covers.

Yes, second year bench rider Zach Collins, who averages a personal foul call every five and a half minutes of playing, is remarkably adept at manipulating NBA refs, even on replay review, especially when playing against veteran All-NBA players.

“...nabbing him at his parents’ home where he lives in the basement.”

Could the Raptors flip him?

“Inarguably inferior Croatia side”?? What??? This is a team that survived two straight penalty shootouts before this game, destroyed Argentina like a college football team destroys a high school freshmen team, kicked the hosts of this World Cup out of the tournament, has an amazing amount of experience in…

HOT TAKE: Lillard and McCollum are the most under-rated backcourt in the league.

When I was a kid, people in my parent’s generation were immediately suspicious of anything that came from the internet. “Don’t meet anyone from the internet in real life!” “You can’t believe that, it’s just on the internet!”

you’re gonna get a bunch of 90s trip-hop fans with your little blog about Portis head hits

And the on-deck circle for switch hitters is right behind the catcher.

it’s just a picture of legs that cuts to an image of a man standing in a burning house and he has a goat head and his eyes are the black of the void and then it cuts back to an image of legs with paint on them and then it’s the goat headed man and he’s closer to the foreground and I can smell sulfur and then it cuts…
