Go-Go music and culture is/was a huge thing in the DC area so it's a tribute to that. Cool idea, but it sounds a bit goofy in execution. Speaking of good idea/bad execution, the TWolves are getting Purple Rain inspired uniforms this year.

Even for the WWE I'm shocked by how mercenary that statement is.

Bucks erase a 14-point first half deficit to beat the Sixers by 15 behind a 49 point second quarter. Brook Lopez canned 5 threes in a row and Giannis put up 32/18/10 with 2 steals and 3 blocks. He is just on another level this year. ETA: This is the assist that got Giannis his triple double. What in the actual fuck?

That's ridiculous, everyone knows that for a match to be admissible in court it has to be contested IN A COLD, UNFORGIVING STEEL CAGE!

Man, I feel like any story that begins with "I found my lawyer on an internet wrestling forum" is going to end with "and that's how I somehow got the death penalty in a civil case." Also, if you call the bar association for the state they're located in they should be able to give you a free referral to a lawyer.

Oh hell yes Kids these days don't know about the insane hype around Miles when he came out.

Bruce is now too chonky to easily fit through the hole in the cat tree. I love my round son.

I'm having a hard time buying into the hype with KU this year. They have a lot of talent, but their guard rotation is so incredibly young and young guards tend to struggle with Self's offense.

Wildest stat I've seen today: The 2004-05 Seven Seconds or Less Suns, famously one of the fastest-paced teams in the modern NBA, would rank dead last in pace this season.

DD S3 finale:

I feel like this implies that people were asking for Quiet Storm and I have several questions about that.

Can you really draw that conclusion from one game where they were up against the Nik Stauskas juggernaut?

I think a bigger factor than politics is that Jerry is basically a nostalgia act who's been doing the same schtick for 25+ years. That shit has a shelf life and he is well past it.

Thanks for reminding me to preorder, thread.

I had genuinely not thought about Lavar in months. Thanks for breaking my streak, jerk. Anyway, he should probably worry about paying his own players before he starts worrying about this.

Interesting, the DLeague is starting a "professional path" for elite prospects as an alternative to playing a year of college ball. $125k contracts, access to NBA development programs, and the freedom to hire an agent and sign endorsement deals. I could definitely see a lot of guys going this route, especially if the corruption trial going on now dries up some of that shoe company money that's getting spread around.

I've got pretty mixed feelings about it. Coach Bud and Lopez were both really great moves, but I think they whiffed on the draft and they're going to regret the Ilyasova contract. And while letting Jabari walk was probably the right move I definitely feel some kinda way about how that whole situation went down. But if Giannis is going to go all Breaker of Worlds this year the mistakes might not matter too much. Richard Jefferson announced his retirement. I was sure he had already retired after winning a ring with Cleveland.

Giannis has 20/8/6 in the first half on 8/8 shooting. Sorry, rest of the NBA, but y'all are fucked.

"Quinn Cook's true shooting % was actually higher than Jimmy Butler's last year, so really this is an upgrade for us" Also, I'm just going to leave this here:

Heads up this is 25% off this weekend on PSN as part of a flash sale.

Does having a legit fighting background inoculate you from being a JKP? If not then Ken Shamrock definitely has to be in the discussion as the progenitor of the style. I spent a long time thinking about it and decided Minoru Tanaka is the Japanese Johnny Kickpads.

Damn, Spurs G Derrick White will be out 6-8 weeks with a torn ligament in his heel. So the Spurs PG rotation is Patty Mills and....Patty Mills.

I'm excited to hear Wolves fans talk about how Patrick McCaw is "really the kind of guy you can build around"

"Don't worry guys, I will definitely be here to support all of you shithearts, losers, and pussies."
