Welbz is dat guy.

That’s not Doribax’s argument. The argument (I believe) is that dismantling/leaving NAFTA is likely to cost more jobs than it would create. The argument is not that the original crafting/implementation of NAFTA was a net job creator.

Good points, I would also add that Korver had a good relationship with the Hawks and they probably wanted to do right by him and send him to a contender while at the same time getting an asset. It doesn’t hurt to keep good will with Korver and agent Jeff Swchartz.

I will say the alarm clock feature is awesome for not waking up sleeping partners. If it doesn’t bug you to wear it while you sleep that is.

These two articles by Simmons were some of the dumbest I’ve ever read, but I think his point about the Pistons is fair. That 5 man unit was very talented but I don’t believe any of them was ever on the All-NBA first team or top 5 in MVP voting. That’s what he means by a “guy,” and every guy on that list except for

He’s legit trying to George Constanza “My elbow does this involuntarily” his way out of this.

The Clippers do have LA going for them, which has to be a more desirable city for NBA players than Cleveland. But both teams are capped out, so it’s not like any real needle movers will be available for either team.

I love Clyde Frazier. He made that video so much better.

Raptors got doubly screwed since the Kings got the ball with 27.2 seconds left and committed a 24 second violation, so there should have been 3.2 seconds on the clock, not 2.5. Sully knows

Swap Thibs and Spoelstra in 2011 and I think the Heat still win that series. Swap LeBron and Derrick Rose and I think the Bulls have a chance at winning that series, and a great chance at winning at least one championship over the Thibs era. I think blaming Thibs for losing to LeBron 3 times in 5 years is unfair.

To be fair, in the interview he totally acknowledged that his players do it also: “I want to make it clear — our guys travel all the time, too. So this is not me saying, ‘Hey, we’re getting a raw deal.’ But to me, it’s such an important rule. It’s the foundation of the game, and when it’s violated, it just feels like

I suppose, but if it wasn’t for Lebron, Thibs would have had a chance at winning in 2011. And Towns could be a heck of a lot better than Derrick Rose ever was. I think overplaying his guys is a weakness, but I’m not convinced it’s necessarily fatal. Kevin Garnett played at least 37.9 minutes a game every season except

If Towns develops into an MVP, Wiggins continues to shoot well from 3 and they all become not awful defenders I think Thibs could easily win a championship eventually. The inability to manage minutes probably makes the degree of difficulty higher, but having great players is much more important. I’m far more concerned

I miss Zach Lowe on Grantland though. I feel like he writes less now, although maybe I just have a harder time finding his stuff on ESPN’s atrocity of a website. And there’s always a stupid video at the top of articles that starts to autoplay when I’m 30% of the way into the article.

That’s funny, I thought he’s been a scapegoat for all of the US’s troubles. He’s constantly criticized by fans and writers, at least from what I’ve seen and heard. Not that the criticism isn’t fair, he’s been disappointing for a long time now, I just haven’t seen him getting a pass. Maybe number 2 for most blamed

I was also there. The only time I feel like the crowd kicked the sports hate into overdrive was when Salcido pushed/bumped Pulisic. My section went into full crazy soccer mom mode. Super fun. But overall the crowd was much more subdued than in 2013, although that probably has a lot to do with the fact we were getting

I think Republicans couldn’t stand Trump because they thought he was going to lose. Now that he’s won, and that he hasn’t dragged Republicans down in the slightest, I think they’ll forget a lot of the problems they have with him.

I’m shellshocked right now, and I know it’s the least of our problems, but fuck am I not looking forward to the Dilbert guy getting to brag.

I will be sad if Mudiay turns out to be butt. He’s been so bad at shooting/finishing/not turning the ball over that even if he improves a lot he’ll still be bad. But rookie point guards are always bad (Although he was historically bad) and it’s only been 4 games this season so I haven’t given up hope yet.
