Dallas thinks their window is now. They beat OKC with a hobbled Doncic last year. No one is better than OKC this year. They think they are actual contenders?

Just to clarify, Tatum better

Sure, but even if it is bad, the Lakers still do it?

There are two reasonable explanations: 1. His injury is significantly worse than we realize 2. Jimmy Butler to Dallas is coming soon and this sets it up

Just as I wanted 7 years ago, Kyrie and AD are finally together.

That's right. Can't move forward with that loser in the locker room

I say that, while I will hate Luka even more now that he's a Laker. Fat lazy slob

Nico Harrison has passed me as the #1 Luka hater

Jayson Tatum got double teamed and did a behind the back pass splitting the double team to a wide open shooter. The shooter missed, so it won't make the highlight real which is a real bummer

This will probably be 9:30 MST game after Monday night football like the Gonzaga Baylor game was this year

I wonder how much of this is
1. Players that are great at college but not NFL staying longer
2. P4 schools over recruiting for NFL talent rather than college production. Recruiting rankings are based on NFL draft position rather than college production

And they both miss open 3s... Sad

Watching Waterman playing Jackson Robinson in the Kentucky-Louisville game is weird

Jokic and Ja Morant would be so much fun if they were on the same team. Is there a more fun possible NBA duo?

Gee, why would ESPN talk positively about the 18-4 defending NBA champions rather than the .500 team?

One major problem with Bluesky: I don't get notechben takes to make fun of when the Celtics beat the Bucks

I say that but then put a bunch of my money in the stock market yesterday

I have been on "the economy is actually good" take for years, but the jump in the stock market and crypto has me freaked out that we might be in a bubble

OU lost a WR to the portal and a commit in an hour. Certainly seems like they're getting a new WR coach

Idk why, but feels like the pop tart and Alamo bowls are the two funnest non playoff bowls.

Alamo bowl versus Colorado is a fitting spot for this team. A fun team gets a fun bowl. Not an elite team, but great season and a fun bowl

Houston seems uninterested in winning this game. Covering up a bad night for BYU football

BYU is just a bigger team and shoots more threes. Carried them enough in the first half. Hope it does in the second too

Two halftime takes on BYU:
1. Their defense is giving Ole Miss the midrange, and their happy to oblige. Weird matchup
2. Short athletic guards are bothering Egor. As an NBA prospect, that's fine. As a college player, that's a problem

The weird thing about Washington is that the second largest division actually has better basketball most years because they have the Catholic schools that attract recruits, so our high school is better off in the largest division

I have the right two teams! Just the wrong day. They play again on Friday for the cup

Nevermind. I'm an idiot. They should not play games between in group teams during the cup.

The NBA cup is working because it is making me watch the Cavs-Hawks game to see if the Celtics advance

Nothing like a week at my in-laws for me to take the time to actually set up bluesky

Super fun when your high school football team is good. Love going to my team's games
