You know what’s kinda funny, it wouldn’t surprise me if the Lakers actually won tonight. Play like horse shit all month, beat a great team to give us a glimmer of home, only to probably lose to Houston or something in the next few weeks

Good call on last nights game.

I swear. This isn't brand new, any woman I have dated has done this.....and now married? Geez. Looking for my stuff when I know where I put it?

I ask and she says, "Did you look for it?" Well, I wouldn't have to look for it if you didn't freaking move it!!!!

lol

I didn't have the issue of my wife moving my stuff.

However, some of my favorite clothes (the ones that properly broken in and comfortable) have a way of disappearing on me that persists to this day.

We’re talking a Different time, we’re talking about a time when you had to be back the field to play or you lost your position.

we’re not talking about today’s player where recovery for an hang nail is 4 weeks.

if you’re asking me now, do I feel a break only takes 4 to 6 weeks to heel , of course I would say of course not. Back then, that’s how we were treated.
More looney tunes. Now if you want to tell me baseball players are wimps for taking more days off I'd go along with that.

Playing baseball is a day off. Nearly half the game you are sitting. Most of the other half you are standing and watching the pitcher/catcher.

I still think he's the best basketball I've ever watched play but this is definitely a pretty bad look.
True, but I guess to be fair seems like all the players on teams expected to be better are complaining about potential of being in play in game....those who might be the 9-10 seed like it.

Go figure.

Again, with all due respect, holy schitt!!! DIFFERENT TIMES, if you didn’t experience it, don’t sit here and judge me based upon modern day.

Today’s athletes are bigger stronger faster , absolutely, they also make a ton more of money, which I’m very happy for them, Today they are considered an investment, years ago we were work horses. PERIOD

Today’s athletes are absolutely pampered because of the money. Load mgmt, analytics , total overthinking ..

in a sense I feel sorry for them, there will be some records never broken, and new ones never set.
I mean this is true....but the idea you are lumping yourself in with NFL and NBA stars as a minor league baseball player is kooky talk.

To be fair, Lebron has apparently changed his opinion on it.

Having said that, I don't necessarily think that the play in tournament is a bad idea. As far as keeping fans interested, it actually seems to be working. However, I think that this was the wrong season to start it. Imo, they should have waited until next season. Last season and this season were too close together and too weird.
Guessing done this season as teams lost 10 games and a better chance to make up ground.

I just don't like the idea of it. Maybe I'm old school. I like the regular playoff format. But I agree they should have waited until next season for this experiment.
Kind of think the opposite. Did it this year because they lost 10 games. Go back to the old way when they have a normal season (if they do).

How high are the Pelicans on biggest disappointments this season?
Probably Gilbert's fault.

all seriousness they have to be up there. Gifted a #1 pick and are floundering in a season they were expected to be a playoff team at the very least.
