The wolves offense is ant's battering ram thing and Kat shooting over people.

Now it's gonna have to be more of a pnr deal with gobert. That can win a playoff series. If Kat can be back by round 2 I think they could be okay.

I've seen people post some creepy stuff in other places about Austin Reaves and Rui fans in the past year or so. I don't think any NBA player would stalk me although the volume at which I post means Kevin Durant is the most statistically likely to have seen something of mine. Reach out, KD.

NOLA athletes are generally safe from this. They are notably left alone by the locals aside from nods and stuff.

Be still and know.
Given everything medical science can do these days, it's interesting that the meniscus can't be replaced with a new set of shock absorbers. The anatomy of the knee seems pretty basic. My understanding is that cartilage doesn't have blood flow, which seems like it would make it easier to swap out, not more complicated. Then again I was never any good at science, so I'm sure there's a perfectly good explanation.

I've had 3 arthroscopic procedures on my knees for meniscus issues. Took about 3 months to feel close to normal after each.

Ben simmons is the one being gangstalked (philly fans still obsessed with him), and isaiah stewart is the one doing the gangstalking (willing to square up, seems like he can hold a grudge)

Good selections.
I'm thinking most likely to be gang stalked: Jimmy Butler (insane self belief pivots 4 degrees to delusion and suddenly the haters and doubters become gang stalkers using directed energy weapons to zap him)

Most likely to be a gang stalker: Markquis Nowell, because he blends well into any crowd (5'7)

I'm after some clarification... not sure if I'm getting FIBA/NBA rules confused, but is the first made free throw counted as an assist to the passer? So, guy 1 passes to guy 2, guy 2 is fouled in the act of shooting. guy 2 makes the first free throw, guy 1 gets an assist? Was this ever a thing or am I dreaming of it being a thing?

Here are a couple random thoughts for your reading pleasure


1. It's been said that the nuggets promised Reggie Jackson a longer term deal when they acquired him as a waiver wire thing after a trade. Should they have broken that promise? Would they better with another random vet in that 5m a year slot?

2. Championship teams often have players who are better than their roles, maybe a former borderline all-star who accepts a 5th man or 6th man type of role. Like Igoudala, "The Big Racialist" Andrew Bogut, and kinda KD on the Warriors.

The celtics have Porzingis and Jrue Holiday way lower down the hierarchy than most teams. Cause they're super talented and deep.

Meanwhile the Nuggets are pretty loving weak after their top 5 guys. peyton watson and christian braun will have to play playoff minutes




Monty + Troy have combined to make the worst possible moves this year so it's pretty shocking that the wizzzzards have managed this. mike muscala was genuinely helping them win games. monte morris. GET RID OF THEM. FOR NOTING. Off with their heads. LET THEM EAT WISEMANS

yeah idk but having jrue holiday, 65% from corner 3s, as your 5th option on offense seems pretty good imo

I've had 3 arthroscopic procedures on my knees for meniscus issues. Took about 3 months to feel close to normal after each.

as a learned doctor, a portion of the meniscus does receive some blood supply, it's just not vascularized, ie it doesnt have blood vessels itself. it gets nutrients by absorbing it from surrounding tissues.

there are artificial meniscus replacements but they have not received fda approval becuase the studies show a relatively high failure rate and inconclusive evidence that they significantly improve outcomes. there is an approved meniscus "support" that reinforces the existing meniscus, but it also has questionable outcomes. some of the meniscus supports have been taken off the market.

i've also had three arthroscopic procedures on my knees for meniscus issues. i was hoping the NUsurface meniscus replacement that got denied fda approval last year was going to get approved, but nope. i've had a torn meniscus for several years that only gives me problems doing very specific things, so it's conceivable that Karl Towns could return this season depending on how severe the tear is, where it is, if it's acute or chronic, etc.
