The decade-long dominance of a single player and team boosted the NBA’s popularity through the roof a few decades ago. So that can’t be the problem. Something more fundumental stinks around here, like an overlong regular season, a system that rewards tanking for years on end, etc.

Looks like you’ve found your new Feinberg

Wilmore just isn’t that good in the news-delivery role. He can’t feign anger and depression well enough.

Everything sucks now.

And then Zaza Pachulia came down hard on Kawhi Leonard’s foot...

People like you don’t have long careers. Enjoy your CTE, jackass. No doubt all of your future girlfriends will appreciate an extra layer of dysfunction atop your naturally abusive personality.

Hi, Maddy. Nobody needs a reminder that Kotaku pulls no punches. That’s why we’re all here.

Yes. How are things recalculated when you change destination mid-trip? Has to be some exploitable loophole there (which would no doubt only fuck the driver).

Other than the part where the driver “put his hands to the face” of a 300lb+ angry passenger.

They can, depending on the firing angle and wind and a bunch of other things. IIRC, MythBusters tested this and gave it all three ratings (“confirmed,” “plausible” and “busted”) because there are too many factors to achieve predictable results.
