https://twitter.com/scooperhoops/status/1361319641793052672?s=19 Well, well, well. Where are the LOL SUNS people now? Any heard from Amin lately? He is right until he is wrong. And we haven't accomplished anything yet. I should quote a famous Tarantino line here but I'll refrain. It’s fun to be in ...

With this win, the team is back to .500 overall (48-48) in the Monty Williams era, for the first time since they fell to 8-9 last season with a November 27th, 2019 loss to the Wizards. They were 26-39 when the league COVID hiatus began; 22-9 between the bubble and the start of this season so far. Ju...

Pretty good: Won over a team they should beat, and didn't really let them close the gap too much. Book and Coach Paul closed the door pretty emphatically in the fourth. Defensive effort was generally good all night. Pretty bad: Still not much flow to the offense most of the time. Turnovers. Ayton se...

I would really love to believe that the Suns are a legitimate top 10-level team, that they'll for sure make the playoffs and at least be competitive for a round or so. It seems like there's so little margin for error in the Western Conference this year, though, and so much inconsistency in the team ...

Same shit. Different year.

I can't believe I've decided to remain a fan of this team. I must be a complete fucking idiot.

Methinks Rudy may be in some trouble. I was reading that Trump may have issued "secret" private pardons to Rudy, himself, and/or his children or others. But if he did so, they would likely not have legal weight. I read up on defamation, and actually it's hard to win a defamation case. You...

I'm ready to see AI officiating. I can't remember them doing a worse job than this season, but maybe I'm just watching more games than I have in recent years.

He might be a good official, but he’d probably have to PRACTICE.

I don't understand why nobody fouled at the end of regulation - there were multiple opportunities to do so. Can't win when you play stupid. That being said, I think we have a better idea of what this team really is now. It's a .500 team that might make the playoffs and might not. Expectations were w...

Ben Sasse would be one guy who fits that profile, the (junior) Senator from Nebraska. Close to 50 but not quite there (would be around 52 if he were to run in 2024), traditional Republican when it comes to his stances on most issues, but has distanced himself from Trump and especially been outspoken...

INF would be a killer "Who He Play For" contestant, I bet.

I don't think they have the budget to fight this suit. I'd backtrack like crazy too if I knew that the lawyer fees alone would sink the publication, whether I believed it or not. BTW, permit me to brag on my youngest brother, who's been published in the American Thinker a couple times and just had ...

I'm just saying that 20K armed troops seems like a lot. Might be more than actually shows up for the Inauguration, but he did get more votes than any Presidential candidate ever, so idk. I do not think that a lot of regular, everyday Biden supporters will show up for the inauguration event, for the...

This article from The NY Times is now a couple of days old, but I think it's the best thing overall that I've read regarding the events at the Capitol, and the attitudes and actions of the incumbents that led us to where we are. Good historical perspective, as well, as it was written by a scholar wh...

Didn’t the wheels start to fall off after a 7-4 start last year too?

You and BK better knock it off!

I don't make the news. Just report it.

Rudy's situation seems like it's very unique. Combination of a small market team that hit unexpectedly on a late round pick, a guy who seems to like the team and is really appreciated by its fans, and a new owner coming in and wanting to make an "I'm willing to spend to win!" type of state...

Rookie max extension for Ayton would most likely be 25% of that year's salary cap (there are also 28% and 30% versions based on the "Rose rule," if you think that Ayton's likely to be an All-NBA level player, or make the All-Star team this year and the next or be Defensive Player of the y...

Seems to me like the agent for every big man who comes up for a new contract is going to point to the Gobert deal and say something like, "hey, my guy's at least half as good as Rudy, we're starting negotiations at $20 million..." or something like that. On the other hand, Wood and Harrell...

Curry, Ray Allen, LeBron, AD, Horford.

Man, I LOVE Allen at $2 for the modern game. AD at $2 is an absolute steal, too, he's fantastic value as a 2-way player.

Centers don't matter, but Horford's pretty good. Multiple MVPs to finish it out.

https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1348380940486246400?s=20 So it is to your benefit as a team to get inconclusive tests if you already have a couple key players out. Got it. That little trick might work for one game, but I don't think the NBA is going to accept inconclusive tests for several...
