    Cody Williams Hype and Appreciation Thread

    Exum has shown he can play when he is not broken, which sadly is most of the time. He has looked good with Dallas. Cody has not shown anything close to what Exum did when healthy. The only hope is Jalen Williams spent more time in college and also had a very slow start in the NBA so we can...

    The NBA’s Great Illusion-By TGS The ball goes up, the crowd goes wild, A game so pure—or just beguiled? Superstars shine, their moves so slick, But somehow fouls and lottery balls are oddly picked. A phantom whistle, a late-game call, Momentum shifts—was that a stall? A storybook ending, a...

    Agreed. Hope the Jazz figure out a way to lose out the rest of the way.

    As much as I want them to get Flagg, the worst seed never seems gets #1. Jazz have a 47% chance of getting the 5th seed with the worst record. Dallas will probably get it.

    The biggest concern with tanking is the allowance of bad habits a tank affords. To a large extent I am fine with passing turnovers and missed shots, as young guys are figuring it out, but the consistent missed rotations on D drive me crazy.

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    Agreed. The first step would be an analysis of actual savings and where the mandatory programs would be sent to and who would oversee them. All I have heard is pie in the sky.

    Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

    Because the programs will still need to be operated (loans, etc.) I doubt there will be a lot in savings other than some admin costs, but that could still be 5% or more. I have no issue closing departments if they can still be run properly through other departments.

    Cheesesteak topping

    Mezzetta also has awesome spicy cherry peppers. I add some to their Giardiniera and put it on homemade meatball subs. Great on cold italian meat subs too. For cheesesteaks I prefer straight jalapenos over the giardiniera mix.

    True, but a lot of awful turnovers. Super high usage.

    Sexton has looked like ****. After the emergence of Collier, even with his need for a lot of improvement, it is hard to watch Collins hog the ball and freeze the offense while basically neutralizing Collier at the same time. If Hardy won't let Collier run things when Sexton is on the court then...

    There is a variety, but yeah, a lot of the same. A friend of mine owns Takorean, I know they went brick and mortar but I think they still do the truck. DC and Portland are two cities I lived in that I miss the food, but am glad I don't have to raise my kids in either one.
