Poker and basketball, love hearing how two of my passions have become entangled. Interesting back story and credit to you @stephnoh.bsky.social for grinding with little to your name back in your 20s, impressive stuff

I’m 4 episodes in, so yes to an extent

I don’t get freaked out that often anymore, but any facehugger scene gets me uncomfortable

Thoughts on Penda?

They’ve stopped podcasting I’m afraid. Could try the Buzz Beat Podcast where I’m now doing some content with others

- No evidence of deep range — prefers to dribble in for a more manageable look even if open from deep.

- More fluid shooting off movement going to his left than right

- Looked more comfortable as an off-dribble shooter when stepping into shots.

- The majority of his bad misses came off the dribble

- Shooting mechanics don't lend themselves to shot versatility off movement/dribble. Refinement needed.

- Relocates well off dribble drives, finds open pockets

- Appears more comfortable from the corners, concern about beyond the break NBA distance 3s.

- Didn’t attempt an off-dribble 3 in first 5 games; hit first movement 3 after 17 games, but grew into it over the season.

- Relies heavily on stationary catch-and-shoot — very limited shot versatility

- Defenders consistently went under screens, dared him to shoot — rarely drew hard closeouts

- Missed a wide-open game-winning OT 3 vs. St. John’s

Why I stepped back from SI and changed to substack. I’ll make less $ but at least I get to write about quality content

Crazy… Never scored a free kick in a senior match before tonight and scores two at once. A Gunner dreamland

Incredible, both of those would be candidates best free kicks of a career and to do it twice in one game! BIG performance by Arsenal this

Any insight into what Kon was like in high school with his pull-up game?

Where is Kon currently on your board? Looking like a lock for my top 5, could be as high as 3 for me depending where I come out on Ace after my deep dive
