Man, the Warriors flat punked the Cavs IN CLEVELAND. 32 points, and it wasn't even that close...
...lol, was gonna post about JJ, too. Any Novak Updates? :joy:


-Find it rather obvious Chad is taking a little hiatus after Saturday night's game -- he does this from time to time.

I lasted one terrible winter living in Holland, Michigan. It was right on Lake Michigan, and the snow drifts were something i'd never imagined. All i kept hearing was how nice the summer there was. Im sure it was. I didnt stay long enough to figure it out on my own.

My sister lives in Hampton Beach, NH but works in Boston. About 45 minutes to an hour commute. Her first year there was pretty rough on her then she said she just got used to everything. She cant stand even visiting Kentucky anymore in the summer because of the humidity and she's had opportunities all ovre the country but wont leave where she is.

Some people are just weird.

the redick-novak debate actually started over bbdk going all in on the espn redick-is-the-best-shooter-ever love fest bandwagon.

career stats (fg% - ft%)

redick = .409 / .888
novak = .431 / .876

extremely obvious who the better player is, but better SHOOTER is debatable. can't really go wrong either way.

False. You were CONVINCED he'd be the better pro...

...just as you were with Reggie Bush vs. Peterson. LOL.


Regardless, only a basketball dummy would use % as the final judgment of a shooter. Novak was basically a spot up or pick & pop guy -- Redick was running around launching fade-aways off of screens and being targeted by every defense.

Is Kawhi a better shooter than Steph Curry? His % this year says so.

Redick is leading the NBA, btw. 50%. :sunglasses:





Stick with running.

Not only did Lebron get caught knocking Curry down Curry did the same thing and got away with it....

and followed it up with a 3.

Great flop by Lebron, agreed. I mean, totally normal for a guy half a foot shorter and 100 lbs lighter than you to toss you to the ground.

Yup. Have family in NH as well and they always complain how "sticky" it is in Kentucky and how they LOVE cool nights and mild summer days.

They forget to mention the mosquitoes are they size of rats in NH and the lakes are freezing cold in dead middle of summer.

There are some people who believe Golden State hads a legit shot at bringing in Durant next year. And with the salary cap explosion the NBA is expecting, they wouldn't have to gut their roster. Can you even imagine?

-Be interesting to see what happens with that team. Kind of feel like messing with the chemistry by adding another superstar might throw it off.

im at the point now that if you read this book, and/or take time to learn about the story, and still let your kids play football, you're a terrible parent. #judgement
As a football fan I feel very comfortable that the Derrick Henrys and Deshaun Watsons mommas out there are gonna not only continue to let them play the sport, but strongly encourage them to do so

Same, although you simply can't pass up a chance to ADD Durant lol.

One of Draymond or Klay would seemingly have to go (or want to). That's a lot of balls.

I know, just feels like what makes them tick is a bunch of under appreciated dudes that play some of the best team ball ever. KD is amazing but that's not exactly his game. Being older and wanting a ring might be enough to make it work. Pulling Green or Thompson off that team would make me nervous as f*ck, for anyone else in the world.

Not sure why anyone would be scratching their head over why Chad Scott is leaving. Stay here and watch Stoops dick finger everything and deal with our prima donna wide receivers or go coach under Fedora, expand your resume, probably get a raise, and have some security.

Oh thank goodness, I've been waiting 12 hours since the news first came out from multiple media people for Kyle Tucker to confirm it.

Yeah, but Braden, Jaxon, Preston, and Aiden James mother hens may not. Derrick Henry's need some kids to run over imo.

Non-contro take: in my brief history of kids age sports the hens seem more jack3d about their kids than the henpecks. Because their son, Anderson, is special.

So, it took an endorsement from my Black friend to get me to listen, but Tame Impala :fire::fire::fire: Absolutely love it.

Wikipedia classifies it as 'psychedelic rock/pop' -- not sure what that even means, but to me it's like some modern non-corny 80s sounds, at least my favorite tracks. Something different for me, at least.:flushed:

^ umm yeah, I did. I want to wax that redhead. Don't see many music videos these days with chicks being eaten out on a locker room bench after a nice pickup basketball game. o_O

Are they similar to MGMT at all? Kinda reminds me of a few of theirs, too -- never really listened to much of them either, but I loved 'Electric Feel'. Hated 'Kids' tho. Pretty sure those are the only 2 I've heard...

* Bringing a very special guest with me to the game on Saturday. Hopefully he brings me some HGH.

* Officially taking my "BEFORE" picture tonight.

* Finally got an immersion blender. Made some potato and leek soup. Eek. Literally got me laid. That is the ultimate indicator of a nonessential kitchen utensil's value, IMO.

* Trying to let the cake bake, but I think Cal may have used some of the wrong ingredients/measurements in this batch. Praying for a tweak.

* I think we will win on a controversial last second shot Thursday night. Arky fans will prematurely storm the court and The Kiwi will decapitate the fat kid who tried to fight a Harrison last time we were down there. GYERO will rejoice.

* Cal wants 15-20 minutes from Skal. I'm thinking 2-5 may be more effective right now.

* Lee needs his confidence back. For the bulk of the season, he was our most consistent player. Avoid stupid fouls.

* I love Ulis, but he does need to shoot better.

* Think I'll give The Colony a try.

* I work in a largish 6-story building. My office is colder than balls. The HVAC unit is noisy as touch. This is not a new thing. I have given the company that runs the building Bryant's number, but they ignore me. Guess I'll bring in a little portable heater like the hens all have.

* The pond may have been dealt a deathblow with the freezing weather. Half the water emptied out before it froze. I suspect the plastic liner may have cracked.

It isn't frozen solid yet and the surviving 5 goldfish are still kicking. The heater I ordered online has still not arrived.

* Wildcat Willy's Tuesday morning soundtrack provided by Billy Joel's Greatest Hits. :pimp:

Lady Don't Tek No - Latryx :fire:

K, that's about all I got in this discussion. :smiley:

...check out Kendrick destroying Austin City Limits on the YouTubes if you get bored. Sheesh.




-Think I've settled on 6 Feet Under as the next show to watch. Know Tommy worships & SAE enjoyed.

-This basketball season is weird in that I have ZERO sense of the schedule. Had to look today to see who we played, and also re-realized that it's on Thursday.

Also having wavering thoughts on Nashville. :angry:

Billions ep. 2 was strong again. Interesting story line where the criminal inside trader is cast as a decent guy, but the US Attorney is made to look like kind of a dick. WHO DO I ROOT FOR??? Malin Akerman, thats who.

Never listened Tame Impala before and MGMT was immediately who I thought of. I loved their Oracular Spectacular album, but all of their other stuff was just too weird.

I dont have an inside source, but I imagine we'll lose some guys with Chad Scott's exit... hopefully the replacement haul from the new OC will at least be decent enough to salvage a class.

-Video was entertaining but the music is just ok. Best Rock Band in the game seems aggressive. Probably listen a little more.

They have 3 albums that are all at least 9/10 imo and they are all completely different. It's also not really a band, in that Kevin Parker writes all of the songs and plays all of the instruments on the records. Makes the output even more impressive.

He writes better riffs than anyone in the past 30 years and his melodies are on point

The Chad Scott news registers a big "Who Cares" on a scale of 1-10.

Not going to make one bit of difference one way or the other.
The management of the RB's wasn't exactly top notch. Boom has a hissy fit mid-season. Inconsistent PT and touches, a criminal misuse of JoJo, overdose of Horton.

Honestly, all things considered, the offseason for the football cayts has been pretty decent...and by decent I mean not the disaster it certainly could have been at one point.
