Well, his stats are starting to get a little better.

But he has been pretty bad today.

Pretty sure I called that!

but Skip Brainless said Dak is EASILY as good as Mahomes...

how many picks was that again...?

Is there a reason Kawhi isn't playing in any preseason games or is it just precautionary?

 

[Black Adam]

way too many mistakes. we may end up pissing this one away...

Probably just precautionary. He's been practicing from what I saw and last week I read he is expected to play in some games. Not sure if things changed

@TurnUpTheHeat how did the Heat look in the scrimmage?

 

[WiggyRuss]

i think tahts the right formula for beating the Chiefs--- run the ball, eat up the clock and keep the ball away from the offense...dont let Mahomes get into a rhythm The Colts had 45 rush attempts- the Chiefs 14.

NBA on China-Rockets rift: Open flow of ideas key

This is some bullshit. Morey did nothing wrong. NBA selling out for that China money

yeah, let's not address all the injuries or anything...

it isn't like WiggityWack was gonna give a fair assessment of the game...

Going now the drain? You expected them to make the playoffs or something?

They were 2-2 after the first 4 and Danny Dimes look solid.

As a Giants fan, i would be happy with how this season is playing out.

Jones look like he'll be solid. The biggest issue for them is defense which they should address in the draft

I echo what @bksballer89 said. It's not like the Gmen were going to win the Super Bowl this year or anything...

The mere fact that Daniel Jones is showing promise is a win. Anything else is gravy. A bad record this year probably helps long term (because of improved draft position).

The Giants are also in salary cap purgatory this year... they'll have a lot more flexibility next season and beyond.

Going forward, the Giants have some weapons on offense and an improving O-line. We just need play-makers on defense in the worst possible way.

She's got to go.

Did you see Candace Parker's face when she was on the bench?

Get rid of dead Fish.

Get rid of that foul-mouthed broad GM too.

Because, if she was white, her ass would be grass.

How fucking unprofessional.

* Blatantly ignores the fact that the biggest reason that I am upset is because Parker is my favorite player *

Yea I don't see how you don't fire that GM. Regardless of race

@TurnUpTheHeat how did the Heat look in the scrimmage?

In general after the first 5-6 minutes, the rest of the game turned into an all star game like atmosphere where players were just launching 3's.

Observations though.

1. Jimmy Butler doesn't mess around. His motor was full throttle like you see from Westbrook.

2. Meyers Leonard is a big man, who can shoot. I was surprised how 'wide' he is. My perception was that he was much thinner. Not the case. Not sure what his perceived weakness is, but he competes. He was also very fan friendly.

3. Dion, in general, looked very good.

4. I have no clue what type of rotation Spoelstra plans to use. I can see a scenario where players like Jones Jr , Olynyk and James Johnson are fighting for minutes.

Bam, Butler, Dragic, Herro, Leonard, Robinson, Waiters, Winslow will prob be top 8?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

The biggest difference between Mahomes and the rest is his ability to buy time for receivers to create space.
Of course once he lost his mobility they were in trouble.
Hopefully he's ok.
