can someone please punch tyrese haliburton in the face? pretty please?
-
always fun for a pistons fan to watch donovan mitchell and tyrese haliburton battle it out in the playoffs. how are luke kennard and kylian hayes doing?

i dont know who danny wolf could guard in the nba.

tennessee's qb just tried and got cut. ended up taking a pay cut to go to a third rate big ten team. however, we dont know what goes on behind the scenes. they'll get to collective bargaining eventually.

giannis or booker or bust. giannis might be for sale. booker wont be because the suns are stoopid.

were the team that has moved DOWN more spots than any other franchise.

and the sports program is probably the LEAST of the university president's concerns.

i doubt it exists. too many different constituencies to please.

he looked terrified at the line.

chet holmgren: you are the weakest link!

horrible shot from tatum. boston looks awful.

the celtics cant hit anything. wide open shots, layups, nothing. and brunson cant miss.
-
mbn scores!

just in time to get bounced by rick carlisle and the pacers.

kat with an airball 3. kat getting punked at the rim by 40 year old al horford. ah, and everything is right in the world again.

the celtics are falling apart.

would the clippers part with kwahi? the bucks with giannis? the problem for the pistons is they would be outbid by teams that ACCUMULATED ASSETS INSTEAD OF 7 FOOT LOSERS FOR THE PAST FIVE YEARS OF A REBUILD. if okc or houston or brooklyn want someone, they have the assets to do it. detroit really doesnt unless you want to put ausar AND ivey AND multiple 1s into the mix.

its howard beck from nyc. he just saw the pistons for the first time this year. and i think he was the guy who didnt have cade as even a 3rd team all nba, right? look, he has to write a piece on the pistons and came at it from a certain angle. i dont like the logic because all those teams he talked about are different and, as del points out, there are plenty of teams that DID decide to add talent and it worked. the worrying part for me is gores. as always. first of all, what kind of owner holds a press conference before his team gets ready to play game six? oh yeah, the same kind who is issuing press releases about how tough the team is. he's a egotistical maniac and the idea of him forcing a trade for kd (like his fellow sparty frat boy millionaire mat ishbia did) for the headlines and the attention (to him, of course), makes me very worried. if you could get a genuine superstar in or near his prime to play with cade, you do it. but i doubt that person actually comes available. if they do, you have to do it. this is basketball and one player can mean almost everything.

The bureaucracy is expanding to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy.

so much for waiting for danielson to step up like kasper did last year.

lololol. how many spots has detroit dropped now?

it is difficult to lead when you dont have the confidence of the people youre leading. and he has to please the board AND the professors, who are two very different groups with many different interests. like you say, once you lose their confidence, youre finished. youre seeing it at northwestern too. but they are much more in the crosshairs of the trump administration given their high profile ignoring of their jewish students concerns. the faculty want to "fight", or think they do. i imagine there are many faculty members in the hard sciences who are concerned more about their reasearch grant money than on any protests on the "worlds most horrible thing ever" of the day. trump, of course, makes things so much worse in the hamhanded and cruel way he does everything. but they play right into his hands. i understand the nixon comparison, but nixon was actually smart... we should stop ruining this thread before it attracts more politics talk. so....underwood for heisman? too soon?

taking the better ideas from "dei" and moving them under a different organizational umbrella is not "capitulation" to a bad idea. slavishly adhering to the extremes of public policy even after they've been adjudged to be unconstitutional rather than reviewing your policies to see which ones might be worth revisiting and perhaps ending is what leadership really is. caving to university professors (no offense) is no less an abdication of leadership than caving to donald trump. the point of being a president is to lead for the betterment of the entire university now and in the future, not to placate the lunatic fringe of the sociology department for fear they might call you racist, or worse, a jewish sympathizer.

aaron rogers isnt that good anymore. when youre one of the best in the league, you can get away with anything, but when youre not you dont. and if youre a distraction? no one wants you. a-a-ron has yet to adjust to his new reality. shedeur sanders just got an early lesson. and colin kapernick, well...

you should see the nba salary cap rules...
