Perhaps it is time to revisit that draft lottery status for the best-worst team. Miss the playoffs by one game get a bump in % for the lottery.

Sometimes you wonder if certain owners (management) have personal conflicts with other owners. These people are notoriously vindictive, vain and competitive after all.

This is also the governor who is attempting to usurp much of the state attorney general’s (who is a Dem) powers for himself. I could go on about his misuse of power but I just get enraged.

Looks like the SEC will have some talent coming their way. Kentucky with 4 on that team and possibly 2 more. Missouri and Alabama getting some top level talent. Looks like UNC is left out and might be in rebuild mode. (Just meandering while I have my coffee. Ah well)

I agree. I am waiting for the day some of these MMOs release as fully offline options wherein you could add your own mods, arrange numbers as you like and have LAN capability. Sure, it would decrease the lifespan of the game but as most have months of content and I’m assuming the game is either on it’s way out or…

From the website :

So you’re the general manager of an NBA franchise and you decide to get some ‘muscle’. Do you hire MMA fighters, bouncers, ex-military, sumo wrestlers or perhaps the warrior monks of some forgotten sect? I have a feeling the Lakers would hire out of work action movie ‘stars’.

‘Adam Sandler is Richard a down on his luck private eye who just can’t seem to keep out of sight. Until he finds a magical trenchcoat that makes him transparent. He just became Invisible Dick. Coming this summer to a theater near you.’

Oh yeah. I think the consensus was that UK was better than that seed but ‘entire body of work’ etc. Anyway, great game. Cleanthony(?) Early was awesome if I recall. UK had some pros on the court but they just didn’t gel until late.

As a Kentucky fan (yeah, I know) this bothers me from the other perspective as they get a potential spoiler in an impressive Wichita St. team in the second round. Hurts Wichita St. and Kentucky both.

The shame of watching the Heat make the playoffs by taking the Bulls spot? I concur. You don’t come back from that

That first picture is just waiting for a Photoshop version with a glowing fireball hovering over his hand. It’s the eyes that sell it.

I could be wrong but I thought the narrative was that the Kings didn’t really play the market (absolute beginning of trade window) in terms of using the Pelicans offer to prompt better offers. Would it have killed the deal to wait a bit? If so, it isn’t like there weren’t at least a couple of similar offers.

He’s simply trying to describe the Draymond Green/Buddy Hield defensive stratagem. Always coaching.

Hey, I got a laugh out of that ridiculous carpet. That has to be worth something.

That card says ‘BUSINESS’ so you know it’s serious

This isn’t like supporting ongoing funding for a failed solar array on a space station in the hopes that further iterations grant new results.

An all-UK team (or teams at this point. 25-26 players currently?) would be pretty devastating on paper and with a decent coach likely a winner. Would be some overlap in position I guess.

Vlade in the back with that smirk...
