What was the Grizzlies cap situation last year and going into this year, since they let both Melton and Kyle Anderson go

I'm neither a cap nor Grizzlies expert but my impression is that they haven't been in terrible shape but they have been kinda getting ready for big JJJ (in effect), Ja (about to go in effect), and Bane (coming soon) extensions and life in and around the luxury tax.

yeah this. Warriors arent going to beat LA at their own game, Looney does not match up against AD. let Draymond drag him around, play gp2 or Moody or Wiggins at center. the 14-0 run was brought on while Looney was out and the warriors were rebounding pretty well by being smaller, faster fresher and more athletic.

And only because lakers got sloppy and Lebron continues to have a bad shooting streak and the refs didn’t call a flagrant one when they grabbed Lebron. (Though that may have been at the end of that run, I can’t remember)

Warriors entire offense is run threw curry. Curry is older now, and the Lakers role players are wearing him down. Green is older too, and getting even sloppier with his tech fouls and he can’t handle AD at all. (Last night he should have had two techs the way he went off to that ref).

I think Lakers in 6, unless they win game 2.

Agree about Draymond, he should have been double T'd. He gets away with too much. I 100% think Malloy would have been justified in tossing him after he still wouldn't stfu.

Disagree about Curry being 'worn down,' I think he'll be just fine for the rest of the series.

the funniest part is how what draymond did was clearly and unquestionably a foul. just draymond being a dumbass and getting away with bullshit

multiple times this season ive seen the hard foul lebron in transition to stop the layup play not even get a common foul so asking for the flagrant seems excessive

Chromecast is nice if you have to type anything long but the phone is kind of a lovely form factor for me now and the remote is the superior lounging and relaxing device. Any half way decent app will have what you want two or three clicks away, the times I have to type something longer than a few letters is rare

As far as the tech goes, I stopped using hehestreams because after awhile the media player would always disappear from my casting device. Similar stuff happened with a chromecast audio setup I had with my parents. Maybe it’s better now but I don’t really care to find out. Cheap rear end rokus and fires have given me less issues and ignoring the ads isn’t hard

And it encourages grey market content providers to just make a lovely to html5 page with a chromecast button instead of a native app. I get that is a stupid thing to hold against chromecast and pirated streams with no staff but I will stand by it from a nitpicky nerd standpoint

Basically the effectiveness of small ball probably comes down to how healthy LeBron is. If he's a jump shooter with some timely slashes, it probably doesn't hurt to go small against the Lakers. And that's pretty much the player he's been since he hurt his foot. If he can deal with switching and choosing his matchup like normal, small ball is a bad very bad idea. But since he hasn't shown it the Warriors should definitely try it.

I mostly like that that I can chromecast video files using Airflow flawlessly which is how my wife and I watch most things.

It is legitimately annoying that TNT doesn't have a chromecast option in the browser stream so you have to do a cast of the window which gets laggy and bad rez.

I don't know if they were still doing it by the end but it's very funny that NBA league pass was blocking airplay at the start of the season. Just absolute garbage product.

Let's talk Football.
Just saw a tiktok about a woman who was removed from her seat at the Warriors game because she was standing a cheering which obstructed the person behind her view. The woman who sat behind her complained and security made her leave her seat. So I blame the loss to the Lakers on the ownership for moving to San Francisco and pricing out cool fans.
