“THIS JOE EMBIID, I CALL HIM THE LIBERTY BELL BECAUSE HE’S LARGE, IMMOBILE AND HAS A CRACKED BASE!”
-Jon Gruden

It’s an NBA-style move that’s drawing comparisons to what Sam Hinkie did with The Process in Philadelphia.

Lemeiuix was much better than Yzerman or Messier. That said this is a dumb controversy.

You have conventional wisdom backwards. Guards make earlier impact than bigs. Bigs seen as developmental “projects” far more than guards. 

Thanks for the analysis, Dom. These gifs are really great.

Who hurt you, starcrunch?

Announcer: “If you don’t like that, you don’t like NBA basketball!”

I’m glad we got to play (coaching) rehab for the guy to call one game and then bounce… ironically a game wherein we lost because we didn’t run the ball more. That’s probably relevant to your interests, Atlanta.

It’s also the correct one. If you don’t need a stretcher and a medical team to stabilise you before moving, you limp your ass to the sideline and take 30 seconds off the clock…

There were also a few Falcons injuries where they had to stop the clock and I know this will sound bad but I was thinking at the time, “you might be hurt, but you have to get up and get off the field and not allow the refs to call an injury time out. That clock has to keep running.”

It’s always a fine balance between the winner coming back and the loser choking.

You root for some random ass teams.

Drew, my man, don’t become “Old Man Yells at Cloud.”

12-year-old me: “Don Cherry is the coolest! Fights and blood! Kick ass!”

“Boy I remember a game at the Montreal Forum when I was coaching in Moose Jaw. The Maple Leafs were down to the Rangers 2-1 when Bobby Orr, as great a Canadian and hockey player that ever lived, stole the puck from that filthy American Mike Modano and then fired it to Doug Gilmour, whose children I would gladly bear,…

Dirk Nowitzki said he tried to vote but they didn’t let him, then some short people WERE allowed to vote. Sad!

The WARRIORS letting this happen BLEW my mind. A guy like Dion Waiters draining A THREE pointer in the clutch like this tells me ONE thing: a LEAD is never safe on South Beach.

What an odd headline, Lindsey. Belichcick is always accused of being arrogant but the first thing he says when they win the game is “We have a great group of players.” He even appeared, dare I say it, emotional.
