Man, the French delivered this year with Coco beating the sore loser and Alcaraz and Sinner delivering arguably the best men's final ever.

The TNT send off stuff was more emotional than I expected.

The All Purpose Comics Industry News Thread
ohtani's jacket replied to The Unholy Dragon's topic in READING & WRITING
That's a shame. I loved the last thing I read by him, which were the Atlantis Chronicles. He was able to write intelligent mainstream comics that were accessible to everyone. Love the ups and downs of his Hulk run and the trials and tribulations of writing for different artists, some better than others. It may be time to revisit his work. There's his lengthy second run on X-Factor that I know nothing about. But for today, RIP and commiserations to his family. -
Indiana didn't have an answer for Mitchell, and they haven't had an answer for Brunson either, but it hasn't mattered. The overriding theme of these playoffs has been depth. I don't think it's a surprise that the teams with the deepest playoff rotations are leading these series. Both squads are wearing teams down. The Thunder do it with points off turnovers. The Pacers do it with pace.

I don't think it's a surprise that OKC is dominating the Timberwolves given that they went through a tough series with Denver and the T-Wolves have faced little resistance thus far. It's crazy how good OKC are at forcing turnovers and turning them into fast break points. A Pacers/OKC final might break points scoring records.

What were the odds of a Kncks/Pacers conference final?

Mitchell, Curry, Tatum, even LeBron... the lottery being rigged... not a good look for the NBA right now.

Yeah, it's the home opener for the Golden State Valkyries.

If I were the Dubs, I wouldn't bring Curry back. Minnesota will probably make the decision for them, but I wouldn't risk it. Let the hamstring heal and run it back next year. It's not like they're going to get out of the next round even if they do scrape past the T-Wolves. The NBA isn't doing its players any favors with this crazy scheduling.

Kuminga can score. He's just useless at playing within the Warriors system. Since the Warriors ran a bunch of iso crap he got his.
-
Ya think Haliburton is taking this overrated stuff personally? It's a good thing his dad wasn't at the game.
-
Buddy Hield... and to think lots of Warriors fans wanted Kerr to bench him in favor of Moses Moody. Great defensive effort today. The Rockets have a ton of talent but it feels like they're missing a playmaker.
-
The Warriors tanking a game and the Rockets celebrating like they'd won the chip was funny shit.
-
That shot of Spencer walking away from the Turkish dude is freaking iconic.

To be fair, Hield shot 6/13 (including 5 threes) and Gary Payton III shot 7/9, both off the bench. If not for those two, the Dubs wouldn't have won. it took Golden State until the third quarter to figure out how to score without Jimmy on the floor. It was reminiscent of the early part of the season where they were using a deep rotation and finding different ways to score. The starters who didn't score contributed a lot defensively. The only real disappointment was Kuminga, whom the team has all but given up on. The Rockets didn't seem very connected to me. The next game is going to be interesting if Jimmy returns given the jawing at the end after the final whistle.
