Motion to replace the term “dog walked” with “dog casted” all those in favor
The most successful coach in NFL history is getting his ass blasted so badly in his first college football game that they’re literally giving a microphone to a dog in the broadcast booth to pass the time.

And I think that’s beautiful.

Someone from the 2021-22 Zags will be a top-3 player on a title team. Might not be Chet!

Generally a fan of pushing tempo when down 3 in transition instead of burning a timeout, but Celtics had to get going downhill for that to work. Tough spot now.

Awesome defensive subs by Thibs there. Not an easy thing to do in that moment.

James Harden in his last five Game 7s:

26-for-80 (32.5 FG%)
6-for-43 (13.9 3pt%)
-67 plus/minus
1-4 record

That 2018 loss to the Warriors gave him the Game 7 yips, and you can’t convince me otherwise.

Fine, I’ll say it.

The Lakers needed Boban.

Lakers traded all the stuff they should have had to trade for Luka Doncic to get Mark Williams? Cool, cool, cool.
