How would you compare n contrast Wemby with DominAyton?

They are very similar, in the same way that a Ferrari and a Yugo are very similar.

Game 3 was super interesting. Spurs got the win they needed. Castle was awesome. I agree with the comment that he seems like the 2nd best player on the Spurs. I know folks seem to like Dylan Harper more, but Castle has really impressed me in this run with his aggressiveness and athleticism. It was ...

I am definitely rooting for the Spurs tonight because I think a sweep would be boring. But yeah every game has been great.

Nah. Loved him while he was here but the availability issue is real and we don't need more of that. Royce was reliable. Grayson was the unreliable one. Yeah, I think he just misses too many games for my taste. I'd rather have 75 games of Royce (or however many games of Grayson Allen) than 54 games ...

Would you want to trade for Cam Johnson back? My heart says yes, but my brain says I dunno. Here's a Bright Side article about it. This past season Cam averaged 12.2 ppg on .480/.430/.839 splits (good shooter!), 3.8 reb, and 2.4 ast. He still seems to get injured every season for a spell. He played ...

I was curious about this and found a reddit thread on it. No team has ever come back from losing the first 2 games at home in the Finals. Multiple teams have come back from 0-2, but only if the first 2 games were on the road for them. (Last occurrence: the 2021 Milwaukee Bucks. Oooooof) https://www ...

Really happy for Mikal. Will be amazing if he gets a ring.

So, are the Spurs cooked? Is there any way they can come back from losing both of their home games like that?

Wow. Stunned. The Knicks have really taken care of business, and the Spurs look like lost young boys out there. Age and experience paying off over a young team that looks happy and surprised to be there.

Game 2, tonight at 5:30pm PST. Looking forward to this one. Must-win for the Spurs, IMO; if the Knicks take both games in SA, it's basically over. I think Wemby is going to have a monster game and score 30+, bunch of rebounds and blocks. He isn't going to hang his head after that tough Game 1 loss ...

I mean, I'm sure almost every team would like to trade up in the draft. I'm sure they are making calls. I just hope they don't trade a future pick for the privilege of moving up 10-12 spots.

Here's another interesting mini-story. ESPN seems to have used AI to touch up a photo of Tony Parker that they showed during yesterday's Game 1. But in the process it seems to have totally changed Tony's face into one that doesn't look like him! I am pretty mixed-to-negative about current-gen AI and ...

Don't want to start a political argument, but it is interesting to hear that the President will attend Game 3 in New York. Will be interesting to see what kind of reaction he gets from the always raucous New York crowd.

ngl, this made me laugh. I'm going to hell.

LMAO, I love the Chuckster. How many people, in 2026, could get away with talking like that? Somehow it isn't even offensive, it's just funny. I love what a kick Shaq and Kenny get out of it, too.

Prepare to be shocked. I am shocked! Wow! Big win for the Knicks on the road. Brunson was awesome, and KAT put in a surprisingly effective game. Josh Hart somehow had 15 rebounds??? Weird stats. It felt like the Spurs couldn't hit any 3s; box score says they were 11-43 or 26%. Spurs offense also ...

Jalen Brunson seems to have rolled his ankle and headed to the locker room. Obviously hope he's okay, and the Knicks are in deep trouble if he's out for an extended period.

Game 1 is tonight! I think the Spurs win big here. The start of Wemby's coronation. Anybody here like the Knicks to win the game or series? If so, what's your thought process? If the Knicks are going to win, how do they do it? How do they slow down Wemby or outproduce him?

Here's a funny one from Yahoo Finance, about Starbucks shutting down their AI agent after it was not working well.

WSJ has an interesting article about some of the companies who went gung-ho on all their engineers using AI, now starting to see the bills come due and balking at the high costs. Some of them are beginning to ration it and ask employees to use it only when necessary / most helpful. (I don't view ...
