Ha, “runs a tight program.” That’s perfect.

“Midwestern elites” talk in the vernacular of “talk radio host” and “coach-speak”: “Did I know about the arrests? No. Did we know about the arrests? No. Do we have a game on ‘Thursdee’ night? Yes, we do, Brad.”

I’m reading Briles like he’s Barney Fife.

The Rockets are returning to China for the NBA Global Games next October. They’ll play two games against the Pelicans, one in Beijing, one in Shanghai. The second game will be the Rockets’ ninth game in China, twice as many as any other NBA team. There have been 20 preseason games played in China, the first was in…

The three Chinese characters spell “Toronto” phonetically (“Duō lún duō”). The first and last characters are the same.

not sure brooklynites consider themselves long islanders. get rid of the 1980s blue and orange uniforms. hopefully adidas revamps them next year. if this is a last ditch effort, they have to start making drastic changes.

The Kings are two games behind for the eight-seed.

Deadspin’s “The Greys” = The NBA’s “navy/light blue/yellow” teams (UTA, MEM, IND, CHA, DEN, etc.).

There are only like 12 real NBA teams.

You’ll probably have to start manufacturing them when the Renminbi overtakes the dollar.

When that day comes and our largest export is vacations for rich Chinese CPC members, I bet you’ll learn how to say Renminbi pretty quick.

Gobert’s team, based on the photo, could be:
-Utah Jazz
-Indiana Pacers
-Memphis Grizzlies?
-Denver Nuggets?
-Charlotte Hornets?
-New Orleans Pelicans?

I miss the days when you could tell which teams were playing based on their uniforms. Basically, there are like 18 teams in the NBA, the rest have a navy blue/light…

Donald wasn’t wearing his wedding ring when he was signing the ACA repeal papers in the Oval Office.

She’s Slovenian, though.
