Reminds me of a lower-level soccer manager here in the US I got familiar with as part of my Sports Information research work. His name was David Irving, an Englishman who shared his exact name with a different Englishman named David Irving who's perhaps the world's most infamous/prominent Holocaust denier.

Out of curiosity, would you (or anyone else reading this) consider a bubble more or less "asterisk worthy" (assuming no/extremely limited DNP-Health and Safety inside the bubble) than a playoffs with many/most teams having some significant players ineligible do to infection/exposure?

I kept waiting to see Deron's stupid-rear end panther tattoo.

Also apparently Kemba and Fournier are fueled solely by spite and will only play well against the Celtics. Fortunately it wasn't sufficient tonight.

some of it seems important but a lot of it seems like doubling down on bad habits for the sake of toxic ideals about what a leader is supposed to be. but you don’t need to be a world-class scout to see if a guy closes out hard on screens or if he dives for loose balls or whatever

Yeah "Take Over Mentality" and "imposing your will" feels like something that could be taken in a number of ways- is that Kevin Durant ruthlessly isolating and putting up absurd midrange numbers, or is that Russel Westbrook clanging pull up 3s in the last 5 minutes of a game down by 4?

I know it’s selfish but it would be cool if we could make it to Warriors Suns Pt 3 before everyone gets covid.

I’m guessing the league makes it to the xmas day games and bails out for few weeks on the 26th.

I honest to god think that they're going to plow through it and point to the early reports of fewer adverse health effects and increasing vax rates for a justification as to why.
