I think the shirt that got me into sports in general and not just the Lions was one of those mighty ducks cartoon starter shirts with the scary/cartoony goalie mask


sort of like this one but better and with the necessary starter patch

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I am pretty sure I had that Mighty Ducks shirt. It was so cool.

I had a mighty ducks starter jacket when I was a kid and then bought a couple shirts when I was living around there and started following the ducks casually and going to games a few times a year. The team should go back to that name and logo and stop being embarassed about being associated with the movie everyone is gonna associate them with anyway. Teemu was a mighty duck so by definition it is good.

Agree that they should stop being embarrassed about being associated with the movie. Also believe that the Mighty Ducks is better than Space Jam.

what is the basketball equivalent of throwing garbage all over the ice and making the players clean it up? I was thinking Sam Mitchel making players fight for a ball between two lines but that really only involves a few people at a time

Lockback posted:

In Boston and Chicago it was basically "take away any chance the ball handler has to get to the rim". So lots of Icing on screens (in situations that you usually didn't), lots of overcommitting to the paint, and playing off weakside guys. It was really trying to take the Iso game away as much as you can and then just dealing with what was left. It wasn't, like, mind blowing. No one is going to write a book about it, but he was able to make that defense easy enough to follow that all of a sudden Paul Pierce and Keith Bogans looked like really good defensive wings. Now playing that kind of defense (with more running players off the 3 point line) is pretty well adopted but he's still really good at getting players to execute.

I feel like he deserves some more credit than this. It was an evolution that was going to happen once illegal defense got removed but it's still hard to coach your guys to leave their man open. He's a big reason offense in the early 2010s sucked. The response was to shoot more threes.

What I'm saying Thibs ruined basketball and that's book worthy.
