...What you're probably wondering about is the virgin birth. Well, the way it gets told is that she was impregnated when the Holy Spirit descended upon her, making the whole operation decidedly incorporeal. And here you thought the Holy Spirit was just some worthless fag-end of the Trinity who never gets to do anything.

I get the economic reasons for the quick turnaround, but we are going to have to read about how this being the cause of every player who gets injured and I don't think it will be totally unrelated.

the teams that went really deep in the playoffs may start slow but everyone will have gotten time off....like as i understand it most guys take maybe a month of doing nothing when their season ends and then get back into training hard. i hope it won't be too bad.

ESPN story on the Millers agreeing to sell the Utah Jazz to Ryan Smith (@RyanQualtrics) for $1.6 billion-plus. https://t.co/XMvaNnQCIB— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) October 28, 2020

dece estimate tbf
The Millers purchased the Utah Jazz NBA team in 1986 for $22 million; the team is now worth $1.46 billion, according to Forbes. In early 2017, Miller transferred ownership of the Utah Jazz basketball team to a family legacy trust to deter her heirs from selling or moving it.

BROOKLYN NETS ACTION! IT'S T! B! D!
https://sports.yahoo.com/kristian-winfield-steve-nash-says-214100818.html
Steve Nash was quizzed about what his team’s offense will look like this season during a virtual town hall meeting on Tuesday.“It’s all sort of to be determined,” the new Nets head coach said.Nash said he doesn’t want to get bogged down with too many hard and fast concepts and designs.“I’d much rather come in with principles, with ideas that allow our players to collaborate with us and allow their personalities and the dynamic between them and the chemistry to have a role in how it evolves,” he said.

this is going to end up with kyrie holding the clipboard during timeouts and sketching up plays
i totally forgot that steve nash is their coach lmaohonestly tho i sort of agree with him... KD and kyrie are going to run the offense they want to run. steve nash wasn’t hired to impose his tactical will on that team. no use in pretending otherwise
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 28 October 2020 17:43 (three years ago) link
from a personality perspective kyrie and KD are two of the most hilarious choices you could make for “completely ceding control of a franchise to its superstar players.” what an insane combo, i cannot wait

2021 drama is shaping up nicely. So pumped for the nets. Would be hilarious if it actually works out there.

yeah i dont think what nash said was bad really gotta see what you got first, plus he was prob just being reticent with the media im sure he has some ideas
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 28 October 2020 18:31 (three years ago) link
also clearly aware of the uhh personality issues on the team which is good too
I'm down with Morey for the Sixers. Why get The Process from the student when you can get it from the master, lol?

nash got to watch kd with kerr up close and personal so im sure he's figured out how to navigate him a bit. might not work but they are at least starting with a solid connection.

cool thing abt morey to sixers is you know he will do some trades

I assume analytics says go with Embiid + shooters.

i would be trying to trade embiid while ppl still think you can win anything significant w/ him soaking up a majority of your possessions

and while ppl still think he can play full seasons

watch he trades embiid for harden

Tobias Harris and Embiid for Westbrook and Harden. Go big or go home, Morey!
