I think it did. I think it’s the best thing Finch has done all year. It’s not just about the # of fouls, if there is a threat that OKC is going to get more fouls called on them, then they can’t play so aggressive, which they were allowed to all of last year.

Two games after the first Spurs loss is when they lost to the Wolves when Finch went bezerk. OKC has been officiated differently since. Like I've been saying all year, when OKC is officiated like the rest of the league, there is very little difference between them and the other top 6 teams in...

The Gophers are returning pretty much their entire core outside of Perich. Most of those guys will have been here 3+ years next year.

PJ also regularly rotates DL guys. Anywhere from 8-12 can play during a game.

Niko is 1-0 vs ranked opponents at home. Let's make it 2-0 tonight.

You should argue that with a lot of college basketball coaches then. Texas Tech's PG, who is one of the best in the country plays 38+ mpg. When they beat Duke he and another guard played 40 min. In last nights Nebraska - Ohio State game, Nebraska had 3 guys play 35+ mpg. Ohio St had 4 guys play...

That would be such a terrible trade for the Wolves. Young is always hurt, plays zero D, flops as much as SGA, and makes way too much money.

Now 6-6 over their last 12 games.

The Gophers are likely going to get pounded a few more times by bigger/more talented teams throughout the season, but people vastly overrate college kids 'wearing down'. The majority of teams have 7-8 man rotations. Iowa only played 8 in the last game and Stirtz is averaging slightly more...

Then KOC is never going to win here and we are wasting our time in mediocrity. Again.

Is there a record breaking Koi that can be sold somewhere for a couple mil?

I agree with most of what you wrote but it looks like he'll have some options. He's visiting Virginia today which would make a lot of sense. They are coming off a 11-3 season and losing their top 2 RBs. It's also only ~4hrs from home for him.

As of right now, there is only 1 team with less cap space than the Vikings heading into next season - the Kansas City Chiefs. There are only 6 teams total, including the Vikings that are currently over the cap. 2 of those are ~6 million or less over. There are 18 teams that are 20+ million...

Mason is a backup RB who has his own injury issues when he gets more carries. Having a good RB and a good TE is a game changer for a young QB. The Vikings currently have neither. They save a whopping 4 million if Harrison Smith retires, plus they need to find his replacement. They have an old...

Kick the salary cap can down the road and you are left with one average RB as a starter, one below average TE as a starter, and a whopping 20 million to find a legitimate backup QB, fill other holes, and sign draft picks that they have to hit on to have any depth. Where have I seen this story...
