In this new NBA front office world, the Bulls are fools if they don’t fire Billy Donavan.
-
I ran the numbers on AI and got the same. Pretty even at a 60%post and 40%3. 45% or higher the 3 pointer is the better percentage but you do have to account for a potential and 1 and the pass being misplayed in the post.
-
Down 14 to start the 4th gives the Bulls a chance.
-
The numbers say it’s definitely easier to score a two in the paint than a wide open three. I wonder how the math translates regarding points since the uncontested 3 is worth more.
-
Bulls showing signs of life on defense but still turn it over and giving up too many offensive boards.
-
I wonder what the percentages look like for a quality shooter when they take a completely uncontested three from a favorable angle.
-
I thought the plan for the NCAA was to walk away and let chaos prevail so everyone realized how much they’re needed. I’m still waiting for part where they come back to the table to save the day with a plan to govern paid college sports. I’m ready for it.
-
I still don’t understand the philosophy of consistently doubling to contest a two pointer to give up a wide open three. Even more now I the playoffs when the refs will swallow a whistle in the paint.
-
I’m not sure you’ll ever see a team play worse defense in a big game than what the Bulls are doing now. Embarrassingly bad.

It doesn’t matter who you are, at some point bankruptcies will damage your credit rating to the point that nobody will loan you money anymore. The only place that’s left to go to finance deals is either organized crime or a foreign government that may have a vested interest in quid pro quo.

If true, the story that he (or his agents) asked for more money before the playoff seems to be turning off most of the top teams. It’s a brutal ask from a football coach standpoint but maybe not from a professional athlete. SEC championship game and potential playoff run could be 4 extra games that he’s not getting compensated.
-
Forsberg is a solid player but he would be behind Raymond on the LW depth chart. A playoff team looking to take the next step may trade high picks and $8M+ on a 2nd line wing. Don’t think that’s the move for a team that’s been out of the playoffs in 9 years.

Enjoy the **** show, Joe D.

The same people that made rapper Gelo Ball a viral sensation to the point he was playing at Lions games

You guys have heard about Ozempic, right? It’s never been easier for people to lose weight. It absolutely works. 50 to 100 to 209 pounds depending on the individual is possible and wiithin a year’s time. One massive, giant, enormous caveat, everyone who takes it is essentially participating in a clinical trial as the longterm effects are unknown. It’s also tremendously expensive at the moment for people without Diabetes.

Cade needs to stay out of foul trouble. They can’t have him guard Brunson in the first half. I am also terrified of playoff Schröder. He can get so careless with the ball at times. Series comes down to Beasley being hot and the Knicks bench not getting hot. We also need the good Tobias to show up. -
We are headed for a war between big diet and big pharma. Weight loss is a massive industry and GLP-1 works better than any other program ever known to man. Diet, Exercise, and Nutrution are much safer and healthier but the shot is much quicker, easier and productive at losing weight. It’s going to be interesting to watch as they battle back and forth about the safety of GLP-1 when it comes to future health issues and possible side effects. I expect a ton of biased for profit studies to come out from both sides.

This could be an unbreakable record the way that teams choose to sit players out now.
-
Very slow starts from some of last years HR leaders. Most of these number are through 15 games. Yordan Alvarez: 1 Anthony Santander: 1 Juan Soto: 1 Vlad Guerrero: 0 Gunnar Henderson: 0 Ketel Marte: 0
-
Should be a fun one today on a track that you can pass on. I expect Oscar to run away with it. Fortunately for us, a poor Quali for Lando and Max should give some exciting racing as they chase down the leaders for the podium. Also interested to see how young Kimi holds up against these guys. He’s been every bit as good as Toto thought he’d be so far.
-
Nico and Tennessee to parting ways. Expect it to be a battle between USC, Miami, and Alabama on who can offer the most. I could also see a dark horse like Washington or UCLA jumping in with a big offer.
-
This is a story if they redid his contract after the season and is now coming back for more a few months later. It’s not a story and idiocy on Tennessee’s part if they expected him to play on the same deal. This is a year to year game right now. We are in the Wild West with no guidance, no regulations, and no guardrails. The game has become infested with these slimy NIL “agents” that have taken over the financial side.
-
This game highlighted your point of how bad the 3 point defense is on this team. So many wide open threes given up.
-
My favorite part of the interview was saying he hasn’t been this emotional since they were able to secure a tax credit for developing low income housing despite being a basketball team. ok maybe he didn’t actually say that but you know it’s true.
-
I guess they did announce it before and I just missed it. I thought they may have just released it like they did one of the past seasons. First 2 episodes were great. Common People is fantastic. Haven’t made it through but excited to see the last episode appears to be a USS Callister sequel. The first was one my favorite episodes ever.
