A city that was to live by night after the wilderness had passed. A city that was to forge out of steel and blood-red neon its own peculiar wilderness.

you guys get mad at me for making fun of an anime but look what happens when the anime watchers among us no longer fear bullying

I would like to offer my formal apology.

In reality we obviously have to do something about the philly posters.

This is going to be very good. I hope the players get to wear uniforms based on all my favorite marvel properties like Doctor Strange and Iron Fist.

From The Athletic:

quote:

Steph Curry and Zion Williamson will share a court — virtually — with the Avengers next month, as ESPN and Marvel plan to collaborate on a special alternate telecast of the Warriors-Pelicans game on May 3.

The broadcast, "Marvel’s Arena of Heroes," will be driven by a Marvel storyline in which the Avengers look to recruit Warriors and Pelicans players to fight alongside them against an invading alien army. Using 3D virtual characters, custom graphics and animation packages, the telecast will include characters such as Iron Man, Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Captain America, Black Widow and Doctor Strange.

"Recognizing the superior physical abilities, agility, and tenacity of Earth’s greatest athletes, the Avengers will hold a series of contests where the winners earn the right to train and fight alongside them as Marvel’s Champions," ESPN said in a news release. "The Avengers will begin their recruitment with the NBA elite and observe the battle between the Warriors and the Pelicans, focusing on three star players from each team."

The players the Avengers will "scout" Curry, Williamson, Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins, Brandon Ingram and Lonzo Ball. Players will gain "Marvel Hero" points for every point, rebound, assist, steal and block, losing points for missed field goals, free throws and turnovers. The player with the most "Marvel Hero" points on the winning team will be crowned Marvel Champion.

ESPN's Ryan Ruocco and Richard Jefferson and Marvel expert Angélique Roché will provide commentary on the telecast, which will be broadcast on ESPN2 and ESPN+.

In January, the NFL and CBS Sports experienced success with an alternate Nickelodeon broadcast of a Saints-Bears game.

Gotta get those Hero Points.

I'm deeply confused by that Marvel thing, but also I'm probably going to tune in just to see how awful it is.

All time winshares is likely Iron Man or Thor do to number of games played and their general power levels. Endgame might have Doctor Strange win out. The only other hero who could win is Iron Man. Hulk is probably third. Ant-Man would have an underrated number of winshares.

For as annoying as it is that Philly dropped both of those games, I've been encouraged by how they played. The final minutes of Phoenix were insane. They'll get bounced in the first round by the Knicks or w/e but they won't get swept.
