I still don't understand why we buried Little on the end of the bench. I get benching him just before the trade deadline in case a trade came up, since he was one of our most tradeable assets. But after that, I think he should have gotten minutes. The guy is still under contract with us. We are squa...

Protest at USC against the cancellation of the valedictorian's speech.

LOL, they're accusing Trump of violating his gag order from within the courthouse by tweeting (truthing) about the judge and jurors during the trial days.

This is such a bizarre statement from MTG. It feels like it must have been written by someone in the Hungarian or Russian government or something. "Transcarpathian"? There's just no way MTG knows or cares what that is. https://twitter.com/EHunterChristie/status/1781078712336674892?t=h2ebMZ...

The media is publishing a lot of details about the jurors. I think this is bad and dangerous. These people may be in danger oray feel pressure not to convict.

It sounds like the editor who made those criticisms of NPR has resigned.

Anti-Israel protests into the night at Columbia University.

Trump (and right-wing media such as Newsmax and Fox) are working together to intimidate potential jurors.

Maybe we should rotate to talking about something else.

I think anyone who did what Jontay did would get the same treatment I don't know if they would have given a huge star like Giannis, Luka, Embiid, etc. a lifetime ban if they were the first to do this. But now that they've set the precedent, they would probably have to do so for consistency's sake, ...

^ Interesting stat, but weird visualization. He went "1-0" against them, for a "1.000" winning percentage, in each game?

The "No Dunks" crew weighs in on Wolves vs Suns:

I do have some concerns about our overall roster construction (lack of defense and ball-handling etc.), but I wouldn't want to trade Grayson for any of the proposed guys. We need some continuity on this team right now, and Grayson has been an excellent piece to go along with our Big 3.

I have to believe in our guys. We have consistently beaten these Wolves this year, and we're finally playing some of our best basketball at the perfect timing. I don't believe in us as a true contender, but I think we can pull off this upset. The playoffs are all about matchups, and this is the one ...

Good for a chuckle.

An article about USC's decision to cancel their (Muslim) valedictorian's speech this year after concerns about safety / threats of violence:

Jimmy Butler seems to have an MCL injury and will miss the next play-in game. Rough news for Miami.

Open letter from several NPR employees asking its CEO to rebut the statements made by Uri Berliner.

Trump is already trying to turn his supporters against the jurors. Surely this sort of talk is over the line in terms of tampering with the trial or intimidating the jury or something of that nature.

76ers beat the Heat to secure the 7 seed. I hadn't really looked over the East bracket yet (we should do a Playoff Predictions thread once the matchups are all settled), but the Celtics at #1 are the team you want to avoid in the 1st round. The Knicks are #2 apparently (wow), a much easier opponent....
