Counterpoint: Football Sundays in Pacific Time are fucking great. Start at 10, SNF is done by 730ish, so you can still cook/go out for a decent Sunday dinner. Actually now that I think about it, let’s just have football start at 10 AM Eastern time on Sundays and tell those west coast wankers to deal with it.

I think maybe you didn’t actually read beyond the headline of yesterday’s post? It wasn’t a call for the teams’ respective role players to be erased from the series. It was, very specifically, a call for the teams not to employ third-brain defensive schemes that prevented the stars from ever guarding each other.

The Philadelphia 76ers Should Blow Up The Team And Not Worry About The Short-Term Consequences

If you have all the draft picks, the other teams will eventually grow old and die. You have to think long-term, sheeple.

They just need to actualize their weakness.

It’s right next to the step of giving a frequently injured big man with a dodgy post game a kajillion dollars. Aron Baynes made Embiid look like he’d never played against post defense before. Ugly stuff.

Whatever step it is, it includes a) Make sure each one’s strength completely overlaps with the others in a way that may well make them unplayable together.

Which step in The Process is having two 1st pick overall point guards with horribly broken jump shots? I seem to have lost my flowchart.

He’s still the second worst Simmons when dealing with the Celtics.
