Basketball is easy; just a complex, relative, and multidimensional phenomena. ☕️ 🏀 🦌

I can be positive, too.

Tldr: stop doom and glooming my Bucks because they need a year, ok?? National media?!
They say you're not a real Super Bowl contender until you tie the Cowboys in Dallas. We'll see if the Eagles have what it takes

Not having an 8th win banked right now is incredibly dumb work

I've been watching North teams pull games out of their ass late for a couple years now. Congrats Lions

Bad tv

Almost 11am in FL and Mike Norvell still has an office. They're really going to make him take one more road L before they ship his ass out

You're going to call MN and offer Cole for Clark and they're going to laugh. So you'll ask for Shannon. And they'll say closer but hard pass. So you'll add GTJ and ask for DDV and they'll say fine my god leave us alone and you'll take your new open roster spot to the bank

Here's a chuckle. The Bucks *never* shoot ft's, as below. But they miss so many of the free throws they do take, that they're fifth worst in the NBA in points allowed after a miss. Teams are shooting 72%!!! on 2's immediately following a Bucks missed ft. At least teams are only 5/17 from 3. So far.
The bucks have a free throw differential of -130. That’s incredible considering they have Giannis on their team.

I have no idea why Ja was a dick to Klay in that moment, but the Warriors have never had any hesitation talking their own shit so I'm sure that one had been in the chamber. Ope!

Speaking of firing coaches, how does the Herd staff still have jobs? They've been abysmal for 2 years.

Oh Pete Nance with the catch and immediate pivot to pass. The BP+Kuz trade will feed. He's ready
November 23, 2025 at 3:24 AM
Best description of AJax. He makes winning plays. But can't make any normal plays. He can't get from A to B in a basketball game. If he's already at B? Sure, he'll use his body and make that play. But there's no motion. There's no Monday to Friday. No 9-5.
He looks…. The same. He has not developed at all. He makes winning plays but doesn’t do enough stuff you would expect from an NBA player

Replace the dunk contest with a Sims - AJax floater contest. The ratings would explode.

Unless you're a Buck 🤷
I like that you can't go hand to hand on a jump shot anymore but as long as you get a block you can body a dude all the way into the front row. Ok I guess. Feels a little incongruent. But ok.

I obviously haven't seen a second of it, but ol' 'Dipo has 16 in 26 mins, a casual 2/5 from 3, 7 boards, 7 assists, 2 steals and is +21 in a 2pt game. Tbd if he's still an NBA player but he appears to have graduated the gleague again.
November 23, 2025 at 3:04 AM
You're over officiating if your instinct is to take away the AJax putback as you're seeing it. This crew is dopey.
November 23, 2025 at 2:59 AM
It's awesome. Looks like so much fun. We'd all like to try, please
Detroit is playing inside of Rollins jersey. Wish we could play that way.
November 23, 2025 at 2:56 AM
They could've really used some shooting help, but the Pistons used 3 days off to come back and make everything
November 23, 2025 at 2:50 AM
That dude is allowed to bump and hold and play defense the way we wish everyone were. This is some bullshit, man. Reputation officiating is a plague
Ryan Rollins hit with an offensive foul on Ausar Thompson and it's immediately review for a Flagrant. Rollins hit him in the face with a left elbow.
November 23, 2025 at 2:36 AM
So unimpressed with Myles Turner. He's just so soft. I can't believe the Pacers found enough to put together a good defense around him.

He's not the "problem" in Mke, but he is a $20M inflatable tube man
November 23, 2025 at 2:33 AM
Dennis Smith Jr. made his Herd debut tonight. So the g league affiliate can now officially play a stronger defensive backcourt than the big club
November 23, 2025 at 2:23 AM
Get fucked you balding short prick
November 23, 2025 at 2:05 AM
Why would a 3 win WI team change QBs, what is this season about??
November 23, 2025 at 1:52 AM
I'm not really a violent guy, but it's time to square up. It can't be open season for free dangerous plays. Someone's gotta fight.
November 23, 2025 at 1:43 AM
Ausar is a good defensive player so he gets to use his hands and bump with impunity. Feel bad for the "bad" defenders who don't get that.
November 23, 2025 at 1:25 AM
Bobby Portis on Cade, lock him up early
