I once again come here to apologize for a few of my fellow Finns who don't seem to see the big picture - or are just trolling on purpose. In somewhat ironic fashion, what they claim to be their carefully processed sentiment, was my exact gut reaction. For me, the only real disappointment was...

In my nearly 40 years in Finland I have yet to encounter a single Finnish Caricature artist. Everyone I've encountered has been foreign, and even then, there's very few of them around. I guess that gives you an idea of the market, and as we can see, the results of little to none competition.

Caricatype of the year, not caricature.

Those are silent hours on the barracks. Will be interesting to see how they arrange the zoom call

They don't count toward the record, but OKC and CHI could remove themselves from the lottery by making the actual playoffs. If this happens (alongside the outcomes in Anderson's tweet) the wolves would be tied for 11th with the Raptors.

I can take this one. He is - believe it or not - an adult man who came over in the Markkanen trade. He has been stirring s**t on the Bulls and Cavs boards, and even the Finnish koripallo.com for years. As several other Finns here previously, I too sincerely apologise on the behalf of my countryman.

Well, to be perfectly honest, this was the third try. First two times we stayed put and dropped one down. And I obviously wouldn't post that s**t. This was more of a "so you're telling me there's a chance" post.

So I simmed the lottery on Tankathon....

Yeah, I spent one afternoon digging in to this and found nobody has done it in the regular season. If you include the playoffs, then KD has done it twice if I recall correctly.

He would actually be the first and only player in that club - 7 footer or not.

Finland has mandatory conscription, so your options are military, civil service or jail. Most pro athletes do their conscription in a separate unit that's more flexible than your standard service, often completed during off-season and sometimes in parts at a time, i.e. 2 months every summer for...

I actually think we might fall to 5th. Our defense has been bad all year, and now Sexton is taking over Conleys spot, plus we lost Vando. Zero playmaking left on the roster. We won't catch San Antonio, Houston, Charlotte and Detroit, but Orlando has been playing decent lately and are only four...

But what I'm saying is that the Pels have the swap rights, so the Lakers could only offer the worse pick of the two... Which will probably be in the upper teens. Sure it's better than a pick around 25-30, but not really all that valuable, considering we already have our own and Minnesota's pick.

Why would the pels trade down? Lakers don't control that swap.

Does this remind you of a certain someone who played out his rookie contract for the Bulls?

"But then something changed — for some reason unknown, his once-promising future in Chicago began to crumble. Although he was still putting up good numbers, they weren't close to what he had done previously — causing his future with the Bulls to be in doubt." Even the NBA doesn't acknowledge Jim...

An idea for Lauri in the dunk contest: he comes dressed in his old Bulls uni and recreates the Jordan free throw line dunk. Based on a recent interview where he said he'd rather participate in the dunk contest than the 3 pt contest, and the article/interview from before the season started where...

Looking at this list, I tend to agree with what I heard on "Howdy partners". Lauri, Sabonis and Davis (he's back on the court) will round out the frontcourt. Ja and SGA will be the backcourt backups, and the wild cards will be Lillard and Fox. Fox being the likeliest to be replaced by a...
