We need Sexton in the skills challenge… you know he’s go so hard.

That's a good group. In today's NBA they have like 30 people to choose from who are all shooting lights out (38% or higher) from 3, most of them over 40%. It isn't like years past where there were clear options. In the years Horny won it, there were maybe 8 or 10 "elite" shooters and you knew a few of them would be in the contests, along with a couple of just pure scorers. But now they could bring in any of a few dozen guys and we would all be like "yep, makes sense". Crazy how this has shifted.

He would probably destroy half the course obstacles on his way, so better make him run last.

40 years from now, you'll have some kid telling you how you can't appreciate how much genre X has influenced the range of popular music. I wonder if you'll be self-aware enough to recognize yourself in that kid.

I doubt it because I make a pretty big effort to stay current in trends and generally seek out new music from every genre and not bitch and moan if something isn't tailored to my exact sensibilities.

I doubt it as well, because you really missed the point of that question.

What was the point? I'm objectively right. This isn't an opinion piece.

Who said you were wrong? The rest I'll leave for you to ponder. You'll have to figure it out for yourself.

Wasn't there some statistics around people ruining their shot by practicing/participating in the 3pt contest? I haven't heard this in awhile, so maybe it's been invalidated, but I remember there was a lot of talk at one point. I think the idea was that you have to change your motion and cadence to do the 3pt contest, which messes up your shooting motion in game.

I like the jerseys. Too bad we couldn't have a nice gradient from black to orange and yellow for our jerseys, that would look awesome!
