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.

This reminds me of those interviews where Russ would answer questions directed at his teammates on their behalf. I'm glad the Timberwolves finally have a leader

I feel bad because Kuz had the second best +/- on the game after Markieff but also every time he shot I sucked air through my teeth like I needed it to breathe

The Olympics are going to happen. The pandemic has taught me greed beats logic too much.

Maybe. This season just feels like there are way more injuries. I feel like anyone playing fantasy basketball would agree.

From what I understand from my friends there it's less about whether or not they're believed in and more about how difficult it is to get the government to just roll them out, basically everything is in red tape hell.

I can definitely see them happening in empty buildings. I just wonder how many athletes who take part in sports where the Olympics aren't THE end-all of competition are going to become wary at the prospect of taking part in an Olympics where it's looking like they're going to have to live in Ye Olde Social Bubble for 2+ weeks because the government ultimately hasn't handled the pandemic very well.

The compacted schedule helped cripple the league's marquee team/reigning champ with the marquee star. What a poor decision. The league got too greedy this season and it hurt them. Less games could also lead to more money, they just don't consider improved quality of games or what the impact of making each game feel more like an event would do.

Yeah I think you're on to something, a bubble is going to be hard for someone who already has a payday coming from somewhere else or that could come from somewhere else if they start to focus on that. If on top of everything the level of sport isn't good it's really is going to drive in what a mistake this was.

Am I not merciful?
The reason Jokic can't be MVP for me is that he doesn't fit my notion of how a other worldly athlete should look. I want my MVP to look like a roided out 5 percent body fat freak with massive deltoids / incredible abs.

E.g. Giannis, Westbrook, Magic era Dwight, etc.

No amount of basketball skill, efficiency or playmaking will change that for me. It's why I find it hard to root for Harden too.
