you literally think a person saying their NBA team of choice being better than the fucking 76ers is a 'schtick'

a literal thing you think.

"I think if there’s one thing we can all agree on it’s that Penn State and Michigan both suck and are garbage and it’s hilarious Michigan fans are freaking out thinking this is their natty window when they can’t even beat a B12 team in the playoffs lmao"

I agree with you, it's totally team performance, even though that really shouldn't matter. More specifically, it's probably team performance vs expectations. Denver is the 6 seed when they were probably a consensus top 3-4, and Portland is 5 when they were probably a consensus 7-10. Also the lack of movement is probably because while the Nugs have won four straight, Portland's won three and the last two have come on the backs of last second DAME TIME madness. I think it should be Jokic even now, but it won't show in trackers while they're in the back half of the playoff picture no matter how ridiculous his stats are.

The nuggets have like +6 SRS over Portland. Still plenty of time for the disparity in actual record to correct itself

Considering how many people I know are getting vaccinated due to knowing/being a relative of someone/not being asked for any sort of evidence that they're eligible, I am genuinely surprised too.

But Silver defended the decision for a number of reasons. He predicted “over 100 million people” will watch the game through television or social media channels. He touted that the NBA All-Star Game will helping HBCUs with over $3 million in donations and exposure. And he downplayed the safety concerns since the NBA oversaw a bubble season with zero infections among players, coaches and staff members.

I mean covid yea, but over 100 million people will watch so how can we NOT have the game?
