I want to go protest.

I noticed a new thing in the league pass player that is super annoying. The toolbar expands when you mouse over it. So if you want to mute during a stop in action it initially looks like this



Then when you mouse to the speaker icon it expands to give volume control and the speaker icon moves.



Overall happy with the state of league pass this year but this is annoying.

Wembenyama basically sealed up the ROY 'race' in 2 games against the Suns and the Raptors. the dude is a loving menace. Le frawgness is absolutely off the charts.

It's him vs Minimum Games Played at this point rather than another player.

In retrospect it's even weirder that this year's City Edition jerseys are plagued by a rash of zero-effort grey designs when teams knew they'd be paired with these insane nightmare courts. If you can't have good design you can at least go for the Most design

Nike does not care

All their designs look like they were made by the laziest guy

ROY doesn't require a minimum but if he misses a bunch of time it'll hurt in the voting.

This is very frustrating and also very obvious to anyone watching the team: https://intheno.substack.com/p/week-2-recap-its-difficult-to-keep

quote:

We all know the starters are taking less threes, but to rebound worse and get to the line less than units featuring a rookie and a two-way contract - that is a strong indictment of things going wrong. This fact hasn’t gone unnoticed by the coaching staff either.

When I brought up the pace and movement the second unit has played with, Green let loose a smile of acknowledgment. “They are just playing basketball the way we teach it,” responded Green. “ (They’re) not holding the ball, they’re playing with a point five mentality, they’re competing. Our first unit has times where they do it, but collectively we all have to do it every time we step on the floor. Even when you miss some shots. Even when you don’t get stops - get your offense up the floor and get moving, play the right way. For the most part we’re doing it but we’re having some lapses in that third quarter.”

The in season tournament takes place every friday? who cares about this...
yeah it's a weird implementation. It already started like 3 games into the season?! But also now it's on pause for a week? What the hell.

I guess "Tuesday and Friday night games are special!" is something you can remember though.

When they first brought it up I thought the tournament was going to be like a 1 week thing at a neutral site, not just regular games given arbitrary tourny status. Pretty lame.
It'll feel more like a thing once they get to the knockout phase I reckon

That was the "best" the Pacers did in the paint! (Because the Celtics shot 57% from 3 on 35 shots)

Pacers Opponents Points in the Paint:
Wizards - 68
Cavs - 58
Bulls - 54
Cavs - 62
Celtics - 52
Hornets -74


They just have nobody who can stop ball and coaches have learned you better pull Myles Turner WAY out so he cant destroy you help side, so it's just layup lines the entire game.

There's always something at the bottom of the bag.

The refs should give the warriors the ball at the start of the game and just let 1 opposing player hit draymond once at half court instead of a jump ball.

Only if in the post game press conference the opposing players all talk about physics and launch angles, refusing to admit any wrongdoing.
