Just that in itself is remarkable. Assuming a roughly 50/50 chance of winning such a game, that's upwards of 250-to-1 randomized odds against that happening.

I don't follow the NBA closely, but after watching these first two games: I am a Kyrie Irving believer I am also a Jason Kidd believer Not that I was never a Luka Doncic believer, but the way that guy passes! As I noted in a prior post, basketball is basketball. Interior passing for easy...

That was an excellent film...although I'm not sure that his health problem wasn't all that sugared soda. He did interview the one guy who's had a Big Mac for lunch and dinner every day for 20 years and who's thin as a rail...but avoided the fries! Part of the appeal of the film was his...

You would have to cite the most toxic example of public servant, wouldn't you? ;) Some of us in other branches of the public sector act with better a better service ethic. In any case, the rules about reporting injuries are to be taken seriously. I don't follow the NBA closely, so I don't know...

Their poor performance reflected poorly on Finch, as a lot of voices are talking about how the Wolves got outcoached, so he's well justified in being salty. I didn't see it as being outcoached as much as out-executed. Besides the performance of the two stars on each team, the linchpin was key...

That's excellent.

It's against the rules to conceal a significant injury. Knowing this franchise, they'd end up getting sanctioned for such a thing. In any case, the fans are interested in knowing what's going on, and we pay the bills.

There's a difference between hurt and injured. He's playing like they should be listing him for something.

Dallas is really good, or they wouldn't have gotten this far. Irving was a frickin' machine last night, and I fear something is wrong physically with Edwards. Overall, their best players played better than our best players. That needs to change. We've seen how things can ebb and flow in a...

The state evidently bought bringyaass.com, and it now redirects you to exploreminnesota.com. The world is a strange and wonderful place.

This is worth reading every now and then: https://www.espn.com/espn/page2/story?sportCat=nfl&page=simmons/100129 I can't say I know how curses work, but the Red Sox and Cubs have both now overcome theirs. I do not doubt for a moment that one or more of our teams could suddenly start to win...

It was a privilege to have watched that game. I missed the first quarter finishing my yard work, but just riding that thing out through the comeback was one of the most fun and nerve-wracking experiences ever, and I lived through the 1997 Gopher basketball season, which was a meat grinder at...

If you see something, say something!!

That's what I implied over in the 'championship appearance drought' thread: that it feels like the drought streak hinges on what happens Sunday.

I'm feeling like the continuation of this streak hinges on what happens Sunday in Denver.

It's sad but true. The assignment of officials has been the most importanr factor in every game. Obviously that's not how it's supposed to work. Or is that exactly how it's supposed to work in the NBA?

This series has been remarkable. I don't think I've ever seen anything like it. Among other things, it's defied prediction. Don't believe anyone who says they know what's going to happen Sunday.

I wonder if the Wolves players took this same attitude and let it erode their confidence. Or if the Nuggets saw things falling their way and it gave them a boost. One way or another, it's up to the Timberwolves how well they play. The other night, Edwards scored 40 plus, but Denver made sure...

That's all fair, but the long break could have ended up benefitting either team depending on the circumstances. It wasn't intentionally formulated to aid one team at the expense of the other.
