“What could possibly go wrong?”

To be clear, the Thunder don’t have any kind of plan here.

Four points:

The 2015 world cup team always had her in the same left wing position that she has been playing in this cup.

How fucking terrible are the Knicks if “looking like cheap idiots” is their preferred narrative?

“but Norfolk’s right fielder forgets how many outs there are....”

It is definitely about the years, Boston probably only wanted to give him 3 for $60mm or something (just making shit up) and he wants 4 for $90-$100mm or something like that. He wants to make sure he gets paid at least one more time before becoming a bit player and signing veteran minimum contracts or sweetheart deals…

That seems like a very specific lesson.

once Beilein met with her, he “became determined to recruit her to Cleveland.”

Former college football player. While football skills are so limited position-to-position (what an offensive tackle must be able to do skills wise is utterly different from a cornerback), one thing you had to have was footwork. Every position involves crazy footwork and either you are born with it or you work at it or…

Exactly. I have been playing hockey goalie for over 20 years. My skill is definitely in the decline but at one point I was pretty good. People would ask about a save the looked difficult and I would just say something like “I don’t know... the puck was coming at the open net and I grabbed it.” This didn’t satisfy a…

Yeah, that’s exactly what she’s saying: that the reporters absolutely knew who he was and chose not to report it.

Finally, a video that belongs on Deadspin.

Ayesha Curry forfeited any kind of empathy when she went on her holier than thou slut-shaming tour. She made her own desexualized, I dont dress like other attention seeking hoes, ideal wife and mother, while I condescendingly judge other women bed, so she can lay in it. I’m not here for her humanity, continue to be the…

Here’s years 2-6 for Monta vs. Kyrie. I threw out rookie year because Monta barely started and only played half the games.

Yeah, I agree with that assessment. I mean, I think he’s a superstar at what he does, but what he does is get everyone to pay attention to him thanks to his handle, which opens up opportunities for other players. Even if Kyrie’s dribble doesn’t directly lead to an assist, the collapsed D leads to rotations/missmatches…

Yeah, Kryie is actually *really* bad at getting to the FT line for someone that drives to the basket as much as he does.

No, because the expected return is different due to the fact that a 3 is worth 50% more than a 2, but the drop in shooting percentage is significantly less than 50%. It’s why true-shooting is a stat at all. It attempts to normalize shooting percentage based on expected return for the basket class. Basically, you have…

Damn, this is good kinja. And I’m not even saying I disagree, I see a lot of Kyrie dribbling around like crazy and people saying how skilled he is but at the end of the day what is he doing with it?
