you are allowing maybe the greatest shooter of all time

Andrew Wiggins.

Stop.

I did bet on this. Heavy stakes on this series (pad thai), but I can already smell the peanuts.

Been an NBA fan since the start of the ‘1980s, and I agree with you.

YES. The defense getting to dictate automatically how a possession ends is the dumbest thing about basketball. The team with the ball should get to decide whether to shoot the free throws or inbound the ball. This has nothing to do with whether a player can shoot free throws or not, it’s just a dumb rule.

What I’ve always liked about Masha is that in a sport known for mental meltdowns, she is as mentally tough as any player, male or female. Her body may fail her, but her mind never does.

One ball for every consecutive year the team has missed the playoffs and hasn’t won the lottery. Boom, done.

Seeing how she performs coming off the bench at 30 years old will be interesting. Clijsters came back after two years off and won the U.S. Open. Henin came back after 16 months of retirement and made the Aussie Finals. Both were a few years younger than Masha at their respective comebacks.

Ducks fan here. Please let Edmonton and San Jose beat the crap out of each other in a seven-game series and maybe Nashville and St. Louis can do the same? That would be great, thanks.

Meh, it’s not. Its a litmus test of how much good production values enable you to tolerate terrible human beings.

This is the balanced, nuanced basketball analysis I come to this site for.

Saying Serena is the best because she has the most grand slams is like saying Hank Aaron was better than Babe Ruth because he had more home runs.

Graf has one fewer GS title in way way wayyyyyy fewer matches, and she played in what was probably the deepest and most competitive era in women’s tennis. Martina and Evert…

Yeah, I don’t really get this either.

Not even clear she’s the best female tennis player of all time, but it’s a nice story if you don’t think too hard about it.

You are luckier than you deserve. I can’t believe you tore up the backyard of a place you RENT.

You know more about professional women’s soccer than I know about anything.
