Psh, what does this guy know? Has he even taken a girl on a date to an NBA practice facility?

Arsenal are in desperate need of a rebuild and their highest wage earners are Ozil (30), Aubameyang (29), and Mhkitaryan (30). Two of the three are well past their primes and Aubameyang is probably at something like 90% of his peak. Lacazette, their best or second best player, just had a great season at age 27 and is…

Atlanta, Los Angeles, and Minneapolis are two-bit towns? 

I kind of like the old-school low-budget feel. WWE, which feels over-produced and lacks any sort of suspense from week to week, is proof positive that production value and quality is not a 1:1 relationship. AEW consistently has a vitality that WWE has had only had a few times (can really only think of CM Punk, The…

Deandre Ayton put up 16.3/10.3/1.8 with 58.5 FG%. Zion was a historically efficient finisher (literally - he shot 74.7% from two point range, which is ridiculous) and the Duke offense had awful spacing due to poor shooting so I wouldn’t be surprised to see him put up similar numbers. Assuming Davis is gone I would…

Bale has scored 78 goals in the league and 16 goals in Europe over six seasons. He’s had hundreds of European minutes each season on a side that won four out of five European championships. He hasn’t been perfect - far from it - but he’s been a disappointment only in the “he’s not Ronaldo” sense. Add to that’s he’s…

Literally scored three trophy winning goals.

He’s definitely still in his prime, but soccer players generally peak around 26-28. He’ll be 29 before next season’s champions league final. A player such as Griezmann will likely command a four-five year deal, meaning a team will be paying him massive wages for his 28-29, 29-30, 30-31, 31-32, and 32-33 seasons or…

Just saying expensive signings for aging attackers is generally bad business.

Nine figures and likely near-record wages for a forward approaching his thirties? What could go wrong?

Great, now I want 292 pounds of biscuits and gravy...

I dare you to make less sense.

KD is the best stretch 4 who can bang down low defensively in the league. He played over 2000 possessions at the 4 this year. 

Yeah I’m not sure how many episodes it takes to form an opinion on Parks and Rec - it’s not like we are talking about Twin Peaks here. Parks and Recs is fine.

I have been complaining to everyone who will listen that these movies are bullshit money presses from our Sith Overlords at Disney. STOP BUYING TICKETS TO THESE MOVIES.

They shot 35.4% from 3 - league average is about 35.9% (per Cleaning the Glass, which removes end of clock heaves). In today’s NBA you can’t get good looks at the rim unless you force defenses to cover the entire floor. You force defenses to cover the entire floor by taking threes. The better question isn’t why do…

Dear “My heart goes out to the accused”:

To a competitive person, there’s nothing more insulting and infuriating than when a friend goes easy on you.

Question: are you saying you can’t trade Russ and PG for the same reason? Russ is on a terrible contract and PG is on a terrific contract. IMO you can’t trade Russ bc no one should want him (though the Pistons trade for Blake so who knows), and you shouldn’t trade PG bc he’s on a great contract and is the kind of…

I think it’s worth adding Joerger wanted out. But even that’s not really an excuse for Vlade because Joerger wanted out, at least in part, to get away from Vlade. Snake eating tail, flat circle, etc. etc.
