This is real sadness. Like what you’d expect to see from him if affordable housing were built in his neighborhood. – at Portland, OR

Really don’t know how people don’t connect Sheed being the best player on a 59-win Portland team that came inches from a title in 2000 AND the piece that took Detroit from second round fodder to champs and two time finals team to him being a HOF-worthy player. But here we are.
Sabonis throwing lobs to Rasheed Wallace deserved far more attention than it ever got

I think he has a strong case for most criminal career-long all-defense snub in nba history. Shawn Marion and PJ Tucker are also contenders for this honor.

Just saying. If Amare is in and if guys like Lowry and Horford could be getting in - all awesome players who were never obvious HOFers throughout their full careers - Sheed really should at least be a finalist.

The all-time best slander name was pre-internet. When recent no 1 overall pick Joe Barry Carroll played for the warriors in the early 80s, his effort was lacking, and they were calling him “Joe Barely Cares.”

Blue Wave smacked Republicans so hard DeSantis dropped the act and started talking like a guy who went to Yale and got a JD from Harvard again.
Ron DeSantis explains why the GOP "screaming socialism" doesn't work anymore: "Young people have a very positive view of socialism compared to capitalism. The question is, why is that? Some of it is the education in our universities. But I think a big part of that is, what they're comparing is not free enterprise versus socialism. What they're comparing is how government gets involved in business, and you have crony capitalism. The best kind of indirect supporters of socialism are some of these corporatist republicans who propagate these crony policies. The average person is seeing that and saying, 'Wait a minute, you're trying to bend the government to funnel benefits to this corporation or that industry. What about having a competitive market? ... Young people really aren't seeing that. They're seeing just a handful of companies that have an outsized influence on our economy and on our society"

The NBA tried something with these Cup courts. I give them points for trying. Half of them are such eyesores that I really struggle to actually watch the games. Tone them down next year. No more blood red. No more piss yellow.

This Dame-Deni two-man game is way more effective than any Dame-Giannis two-man game ever was

Fun fact: Deni actually is tied for the 14th-most 20 pt 10 ast games by a forward in *NBA* history, with 15 after tonight. All 15 came while he was wearing a Blazers jersey.
Deni Avdija now has the most games by a forward in Portland history with 20 PTS & 10 AST.

Some names that I was surprised didn’t make the cut: kg (12 games), Tatum (10), and Draymond (somehow only 6). Other active forwards with a lot: Siakam (13), sabonis (center?)/ingram (10), Paolo (9), K-Mid (8), Randle and PG (7).
