lonnie walker seems to be on the side of good, based on his twitter feed

lonnie is def a conspiracy theory guy tho

(he's the age of a lot of my former students and a lot of them share the pizzagate shit which i constantly have to go snopes and be like WHAT THE FUCK DID I TEACH U)

youtube algorithms have so much to answer for

Lonnie’s been through a lot, wasn’t he the one who recently cut his hair and had an accompanying players tribune essay about having been molested as a kid?

thats right, yeah

celtics are forcing the blazers into bad shot selection and the blazer big lineup hasn't slowed the celtics down any. if the blazers go smaller they will lose the battle of who can put the best talent on the floor, unless some blazer bench players play over their heads.

tatum cut his hair and is good again now

not sure i understand the metaphysics of whether a game can still be a fabled ilx bowl even it is happening in "the bubble"

much like light is both a particle and a wave this game is a bubble bowl

namaste

theis seems like a v intense dude, never noticed him much before

theis is dece

Let’s be honest: this is great basketball

didn't think i'd ever ever say it about this particular squad or a team with whiteside but theres no quit in this portland team

Nurkic and Lillard have huge balls and really really want to make the playoffs. It’s great to see

Celtics have lots of haters but the Brown/Tatum combo is so impressive

idk where this version of gary trent jr came from but i am v cool w/ it

gary f'n trent cannot miss

he has some very real sam cassell big balls dance energy

big quarter for liberation

if this celtics iteration was a different team besides boston they'd be everyone's leaguepass darlings

i guess they couldn't be the lakers either

wtf there's no foul there

messed up the backcourt violation call too

ya

Absolutely insane officiating, almost every game

bubble life has driven the refs nutty

people were worried about the players being rusty when they should have worried about the refs

my least fave thing about the celtics is definitely hayward's kinfolf cover model lifestyle thing i just ... i get enough of that just driving around here u know

good game!!

obviously tatum scored a lot but 8 assists is really encouraging for him and he also guarded dame in crunch time.

blazers going for 2 down 3 with 4 seconds left and no timeouts was an interesting decision

"an interesting strategy there" indeed

Markelle Fultz just hit a 70 footer

NBA teams took 124 shots this season when down by exactly 3 points with less than 20 seconds left in the 4Q or OT.

Every single team that took a 2 instead of a 3 in that situation lost the game: 0-31.

Teams that took a 3 went 10-73.

you can't say though that is not an interesting strategy

its interesting, in some ways more interesting than trying to win

when keith van horn is right keith van horn is right

I wish America would just go to the euro club model for all sports and we could just be done with the NCAA. The NCAA’s foundation is so flawed that it’s just never going to be right, ever.

well, yes, ofc. but an entrenched system that generates many billions of dollars of revenue and has a huge, highly loyal fan base is not going away just because there is a more rational alternative to it.

Jonathan Isaac planted on his left leg going into the lane, and immediately began grabbing for his left knee, going down to the ground in a ton of pain. He's only just now being put into a wheelchair after probably being on the ground for two minutes or more.

wow god is NOT good all the time?

lol ouch

sucks for issac, just got back from a pretty bad knee injury.

I guess he’s just one of those guys

so as i was saying....

the bucks have ~3 weeks to figure out how to score when the butts tighten
