McDaniels fouls out. The Thunder must love that. He's a defensive menace.

What's the point of the virtual replay?

Wolves three point shooting comes back down to earth after soaring against the dubs. . . . shocked, shocked I say!

Minny wasn’t all that impressive to me, and hasn’t been tested. But they settled into the series quite well after getting jarred in the first game of our series. I expect they’ll do fine against OKC here, but lose in 6 or 7, cuz OKC is good, but not some unbeatable dominant force.

I was underwhelmed by Minny. thought they would look better. Think they could lose in 5, doubt goes to 7.

If I were more impressed by OKC, I would agree. But I’m not that impressed by then either.

I'm not impressed enough by OKC that I was worried too much about them for the (healthy) Dubs. . .

Ant down but it doesn’t even matter cos Julius Randle is apparently peak LeBron and peak Steph all rolled into one.

Damn, Ant in the clubhouse with a sprained ankle in the 1st Q? Jefferson jinxed him by talking about his “bionic ankle”…

Lots of big men in the 40's, some of them have varying styles, but all have have some strong strengths to go with the usual 2nd-round weaknesses (although it seems like quite a few of them might be drafted higher that, Kalkbrenner would be nice if we could trade up a few spots, but might not be there, either). Sion James also still down there. Myles Bird seems bad at 3's (not ideal), but shoots FT's at around 83-84%, so maybe some potential on offense (mostly a defender). Tyrese Proctor seems similar on defense (except as a PG not SG), except he has a good 3 pt%, but not-so-good FT%.

Of course, a lot depends on what goes on with trades and FA (although I think BPA should usually apply for any pick).

TL:DR: I want hear Fitz and Buike trying to pronounce Bogoljub dozens of times a season (just a general statement, not who I necessarily want to draft)

Man Sports Illustrated is trash. Article titled "Suns Urged to Trade Kevin Durant to the Warriors". It's source is a Bleacher Report article that proposes a trade. Bleh click-bait.

Daniel, Duby and I actually negotiated with SI about taking over their Warriors site a few years ago. They were recruiting us but when we submitted our sample writing, they rejected us for having — literal words — “too much personality”. Clearly our writing would be only interesting to humans and not the google search engine.

I would put that rejection on a poster in my house. What a compliment! What a trash publication.

SI very, very quickly went downhill about 2 years ago. For anybody remotely observant, it's very easy to see the limitation of AI in how people are trying to use it. It's either got to get a whole heck of a lot better, or it's going to find it's very limited niche, and stick there.

You remember when The Sporting News was a sports bible. Now it's garbage, like SI. When print media hit the skids, most of the money went out of those publications, and it has been a downhill slide ever since.

SI click bait sourced from BR click bait. There's a ridiculous amount of it around.
