Before this series I had thought of Jared Dudley as a respectable NBA journeyman veteran. He’s trying way too hard in all the wrong ways. I still have respect he was in that grant hill anti-homophobic-slur promotion, but I’m realizing that was less of an admirable sticking your neck out thing and more of a baseline…

Did he use too much physical force in a close play in a contested NBA playoff game? Perhaps he should have simply tossed some marshmallows in the general direction of Allen to ward off any field goal attempts?

Who could possibly understand why a physically and statistically dominant center who doesn't take himself too seriously might be popular?!

It *was* all ball, and even if it hadn’t been, it still wasn’t a hard foul for playoffs standards.

I mean, you're right, kind of, but everyone in the world, even those who don't know what basketball is, is in position to drag an NBA player when he shoots an airball, especially when he's been talking shit about people not being able to shoot

Reminds me of when Duke officials got two on campus baristas fired for playing rap music

I don't think they're technically required to go to class once the season is over

“But once the buzzer to start the fourth quarter went off,”

He gets a lot of hate online from people that only know his music that I think is undeserved - is there something about him as a person that makes him a shitbag? Spill the tea!

Agreed - I'm not convinced Deadthony Spintano understands humor

“mis-spelling" is a misspelling of "misspelling"

It was?!?!

Because you often seem to have good takes that aren’t completely grounded in irony, I’m going to assume this was a joke that I don’t get.

Why would LeBron leave now? Magic was garbage with personnel decisions and a garbage basketball personality overall (while managing to be charming and one of the 10 best players of all time).

Reached for comment, fellow local superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo somewhat controversially weighed in on Rodgers’s comments:

This is a garbage take

Ill attribute this loss to coach K, not because of Barrett’s high usage rate at the end and more to Duke’s repeated entry passes into the post to Zion that resulted in turnovers. They clearly wanted Zion to get the ball in the post, but they kept throwing it into heavy traffic and having the ball stolen or go out of…

I could have gone a lifetime believing no one really gave a shit about Rick Barnes one way or the other, but you learn something new everyday, I guess. 

Maybe they want him to stop charging things to other people's bills

Im a little in the dark on this subject. What is it about the charter system that fucks over the students in it?
