    (2) New York Knicks vs (6) Indiana Pacers - 2024 EC Second Round

    I agree. I would also argue his game is better suited for a more physical style allowed than most. He had a drive last game where he initiated contact on McConnell three separate times on one drive. Minnesota and New York have probably benefitted more than any two teams with the "new" rules.

    Nesmith playing 19 minutes on Brunson with one foul is HUGE for Indiana.

    Carlisle took the high road after game one. He is trying a different method after game two. View: https://twitter.com/TonyREast/status/1788404106731622751

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    The most likely scenario is that Stan is overcompensating for the fact that his brother works for the Celtics. Stan is, undoubtedly, rooting for the Celtics to win the title.

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    For all of the SVG slander - we all know he's rooting for the Celtics to win the series.

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    It feels like you're just as likely to draw a foul on a jumper as a take to the rim in these playoffs.

    4/29: Game 4@Miami

    He's correct that the Heat have gotten really good looks. The drop vs. Herro/Bam side pick and roll is painful to watch right now.

    Matchday 35- Waiting for the inevitable

    Your reverse-jinxing has reached all-time levels. :) I thoughts Spurs played well enough to win. Weird game.

    Matchday 34- where it feels like the end of the season is coming

    There was no contact on Foden, deflected heavily too. Ha. De Bruyne set the mood, which is what champions do in these circumstances.

    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    The rookie has played well. They will have two more months to talk about the C's. They have have a week to talk about Miami.

    Still Not the Super League: Champions League 23/24

    That last free kick notwithstanding, I thought Saka was really poor today. Season took a real turn in the last four days.

    Still Not the Super League: Champions League 23/24

    I've seen that given. I've seen it not given. I don't think either stance is without some merit. The fact that Bayern looked fast and athletic was the most troubling part of that tie if you're Arsenal.

    NCAA Men's Final Four Thread

    Teams of the past have the benefit of knowing how good everyone turned out. Brewer/Noah/Horford is 30 years of NBA experience. That skews most of these conversations. I also think the idea that 2 of UCONN's best players came from East Carolina and Loyola (MD) is hard for most people to...

    NCAA Men's Final Four Thread

    You can't win CBB games shooting 1-6 from 3. Edey has 62% of his team's points. The UCONN 5's have 2 of the team's 14 off. reb. Dude did his job. UCONN was just better in every other area.

    2023-2024 Women’s College Basketball

    Taurasi has publicly said, and I'm paraphrasing, she is in for a rude awakening when she enters the WNBA. Like most things - you can read it a lot of ways. It probably lands somewhere between jealousy and truth. The bottom line is the NCAA Tournament is the pinnacle, in terms of national...

    He is either being sarcastic about the pearl-clutching coverage of current WNBA players not publicly adorning Clark or he is saying it's wild that they aren't in awe of the record-breaking attention she is giving their sport.

    MW32, in which we’re all Crystal Palace fans

    They've allowed one goal since February and their worst league result since December is taking a point at The Etihad, snapping their two-year long scoring streak at home.
