It's like we're back in the 1980s. We have a senile lunatic as POTUS and the Sixers, Lakers, and Celtics are looking good.

So does that mean that Boston might get Sactown's unprotected 2019 pick?

If the 2018 Lakers pick ends up at #1 or #6-#30, then they get the Sacramento pick.

How likely is that? Does it strongly hinge on what L.A. does in the draft and free agency, I guess?

50/50 I guess.

They probably wait till Paul George is a FA next summer instead of attempting to trade for him so I don't think they'll be that much better, but guys like Russell, Randle, Ingram, Nance and Walton will all be more experienced so they might not be quite as bad.

Honestly, I could see the pick being anywhere in the top 10-12.

I get why they'd compare him to Pierce because he is skilled for his age and has some of that old man game, but playing like Pierce and being an efficient scorer is really hard to do. He's not a great athlete and a good but not great shooter so he's going to have to covert tough shots at a really high rate.

Yeah, people have kinda forgotten how good Pierce was in his prime. He's easily a first ballot HOFer and he also was a defensive stud unlike Tatum.

Either the Suns or Kings, probably. Seems pretty likely now that it'll go Fultz, Ball, Tatum, and then Jackson and Fox in some order

I still think there's a chance Jackson goes #3 if Boston thinks that they can move him for Butler or Zinger, but after the last week o' crazy who the hell knows.

Could someone describe what Provel cheese tastes like? The wiki entry just says "is a combination of cheddar, Swiss, and provolone cheeses, and tastes nothing like any of them."

I don't think it has an especially distinctive taste but the texture of it is super gross to me. If they didn't insist on using that St.Louis pizza would be fine, I don't mind super thin crust

Also, the general rule is:

Scandinavian= Sweden, Denmark, Norway.
Nordic= Sweden, Denmark, Norway + Finland and Iceland.
