    The Dark Days

    This is unbelievably false. To an insane level, you are tunneling on the <5% of instances that were successes and ignoring all of the failures. The fact that you're so starving for successful examples that you have to cite Orlando is telling. Orlando was terrible for 15 straight years...

    Philly was one of the most successful examples of a team that did an all-out tank.

    The Dark Days

    If your definition of "failure" is "didn't win the title", sure. If your definition of "failure" is "didn't become a competitive playoff team", absolutely not. Some of you become so enamored with the very rare instances where all-out tanking doesn't end up in complete distaster that you get...

    The Dark Days

    The harsh reality about all-out tanking is that you're way, WAY more likely to end up as a perennial awful team than you are to become a contender. It's a lame strategy. And if you're the type of fan who can't get any satisfaction from cheering for a competitive playoff team unless the team...

    Timeouts haven't been working out very well for this team as of late.

    What a clownshoes take. He was already past Rui when the whistle blew. and Rui didn't stop defending until well after the shot was attempted. Maybe AD comes to contest if there's no whistle, but then there's two players (Kessler and Laur) in great position at the rim to dump it off to (or to...

    That was really bad, no sugarcoating it. If Hardy doesn't take accountability for that after the game that'd be a major red flag.

    Either Hardy is a genius or a moron in this one, depending on what his intentions were.

    Guessing that's gonna put a pretty big dent in Sexton's relationship with Hardy.

    Eubanks erases a lot of good the Jazz are doing.

    My faith in our front office is not high at the moment. Trying to blow their load on Bridges and PG this past offseason was really dumb. Trying to trade for Brandon Ingram this season would've ruined me if it was successful. What are we doing?

    My brother, the Eagles are averaging nearly 70 more rushing yards per game. Yes, having a God-tier rushing attack would cause Hurts to turn the ball over a lot less. I'm not sure why you keep bringing up the defense, they being elite and Barkely being MVP aren't mutually exclusive.

    The Eagles have never had anything remotely like what Barkley is doing. EDIT: lol, Eagles went from 128.8 rushing yards per game last year to 193.4 this year (2nd highest of any team in the last 10 years).

    Not that it matters at all, but how the hell was that a blocking foul on Lauri. Is this just how Wemby is going to be officiated throughout his career?

    Nice, the part of the game where we settle for horrible shots and don't get back on defense.
