The Thunder being -12.5 at Milwaukee while down 3 starters and 2 other rotational players is hilarious. Horst has the best player in the world and even with that has a team that isn't even remotely competitive.

And to think the Bucks blocked him from an interview for a promotion with the Pistons and extended him before he interviewed with at least one other organization (can't remember who it was), after 3 straight first round playoff exits. Guy was trying to do the Bucks a favor and they treated him like a must keep guy.

clickbait for small minds

So many MU tears this year

Jeanie Buss might want to take her $500M and retire. I can't imagine Mark Walter wanting her around. Yikes!

Slow news day.

Yeah absolutely though our nba Mount Rushmore isn't a who's who of HoF players or even all stars

Quote from: WhiteTrash on January 21, 2026, 04:08:01 PMFunny that in the past month, due to FB transfer crap, I've heard two or three radio personalities ask if the players were still required to go to classes.

They are idiots for asking, but the public impression of these young men are as of professional athletes more and more each day. Do they even reference a player's major anymore?

They major in football (or baseball, basketball, hockey, golf, etc.)
Young elite athletes everywhere else in the world just go to a club academy where the focus is on turning them into a professional athlete, but here we have this ruse in which becoming a professional athlete is secondary to "real" education.

Tomy Parker is the guy I most often think of as a wizard at these attributes.  Insane quickness, but totally understood how to maximize his zoomability.  And he had that wicked floater of course.

learn to vary speeds and change timing. He is OFTEN basically out of control and moving too fast to put up a good shot. If he could add some finesse he'd be much more effective.

Very good points by you and TSmith.  I have mentioned the importance of speed control if you are blessed with tier 1 quicks.  As well as using  change of pace and direction. Chase hasn't figured that out at all.
