    Fair enough, didn’t mean to paint them all in a bad light (I have a friend who went to one after getting shut out of med schools and she’s a serious person doing good things now) I just dug around a bit about the one he went to and it seems to have a poor reputation. He sure does tweet...

    Hah, good to see suspicions confirmed by a real doc. Or X-ray technician, whatever

    Yeah, I follow Jesse Morse too for fantasy related stuff, and while his ortho-related stuff might be sound, once he started posting about ozone therapy, avoiding seed oils, and other pseudoscientific quackery I got curious and turns out his MD is from a diploma mill in the Caribbean. Doesn’t...

    2024 NBA Draft

    Kornet is definitely quick compared to Edey. It's not just Edey's foot speed- his processing on the defensive end is slow. He's consistently a step behind the play at the college level; NBA ball movement is going to give him whiplash. I see very little path for him becoming a rotation player for...

    Hah, I was gonna say that it was a Steph post disguised as a Luka post. (But seriously, Ben Taylor's stuff is always worth posting twice)

    Well this sure looks like a nightmare for the association. Apparently for the hurt eyeball game the under on his minutes played was the biggest winner of any player prop that day.

    Yeah, bargain bin Dray was always it. Or as far back as 7 years ago, anyway. At least in East Lansing. I wanted Tillman pretty badly with the Pritchard pick so I'm quite happy with this turn of events. Better late than never.

    The Bill Simmons Thread

    OK but flipside is that Denver shot 26% and 19% from three in those games. FWIW, Celtics 3PAr in those games was 42% and 49%, their season average is 47%, 1st in the league; Denver's was 23% and 38%, season average of 35%, 30th in the league. But I'm not reading too much into those games other...

    Jaylen Brown: Will he be enough in Year 8?

    NBA.com has those wide open 3s as 6.5% of his 3pt attempts, so that's about 20 attempts total on the season. He's at 39.4% for "open" 3s (closest defender between 4-6 feet away), which are a third of his 3pt attempts. It's possible they saw something in his mechanics or something when he has a...

    His chart is hilarious. He'll be Tim Duncan by Easter.
