Watching James Harden not get the foul calls he’s used to is the most reliable joy the NBA playoffs can offer.

But, you will pass on Tagovailoa, Herbert and Jake Fromm to take McKenzie Milton.
You have to admit, the potential for impressively (and entertainingly) petty social media shade-slinging between the two of them is OFF THE CHARTS.
When your dad leaves you as a baby but then comes back when he realizes you will be an NBA player, you’re gonna be pretty fucked up from that.
Listen, I get all the reports and stuff, but just wait until the Knicks get a look at Daniel Jones and decide to go all in on him.
I’m starting to think they had Jones as a 6th round grade, but Gettleman mis-read the scouting reports and now they’re leaning all the way into it.
“With the sixth pick in the 2019 NFL draft, the New York Giants select Daniel Jones.”
The transformation of the Giants becoming the Jets is nearly complete. The final stage of the metamorphosis is when Pat Shurmur gets a tattoo of a pinup wearing a Daniel Jones jersey.
I’m not saying this is all about race, but Geno Smith is the only black quarterback ever to start a game for the Giants. And that’s all he started: a game.
“It just felt white, y’know?”
Best line I saw: Daniel Jones looks like the actor they’d cast to play Eli in a movie about Peyton’s life.
You mean that time they started a black QB on December 3, 2017 and then the coach and GM got fired on December 4, 2017?
Long time Giants fan. Is it just me, or do Gettleman’s (and the Giants generally) justifications for doing things recently (like trading OBJ, picking Jones over Haskins) come off as racially coded? “Negative culture.” “Mature.” “Fiber.” Hmmmmmmmmmm. Like they get rid of Beckham for complaining that they lose too much…
Jones has all the right attributes: Will, Height, Intelligence, Tenacity, Eye-hand coordination.
Bengals neglecting to pick an exciting, dynamic possible franchise QB with a local connection because THIS IS THE YEAR Andy Dalton will get us over the hump we just needed a tackle that’s probably actually a guard
The Blue Jackets also lost tonight so I’m just having a moment as the universe reminds me my sports teams…
the Raiders to do the same old shit that team has done for the better part of this millennium.
Also getting technical, Josh Allen has been selected 7th overall two years in a row.
You got screwed in the playoffs. Congratulations, you’re officially an NHL franchise.
Special Guest appearance by The Cryptkeepr in the coolest HBO crossover moment in history? That would totally make it worthwhile.
I’m at the point where I actively support Dumb Guys in sports just because it means they aren’t Dumb Guys doing something much more important.
