Would Bo Ryan have abruptly retired if he hadn't realized that it was going to be his first season finishing outside the top 4 in the conference? Would Maya Moore have abruptly retired if the Lynx weren't going to put her first losing season on her resume? It happens. You can assume all kinds...

Pardon the pun, of course, with his dad Dick pulling something of the same thing, retiring abruptly. Wasn't that during the course of the season? I can't bring myself to come down too hard on either of them. Burnout is a real thing. They both worked and coached hard, and a guy can wake up one...

That could mean a lot of things. Could be a dirty euphemism. We are playing the Beavers, after all.

OK, much better

This might be a bad sign.

Good thing he's building a culture of winning.

Your hypothesis is vague and unsupported.

I was delighted to find out, too! One of my national colleagues in Austin gave me a list of essential stops in the city, and that was one of them. When you get to the point of planning an Austin trip, message me. I'll pass along what she wrote to me. Pro tip: learn the two-step ahead of time...

We went there and had a round of them when we visited for the eclipse. We had a round of those and a round of another margarita recommended by our waitress. Great drinks, great food, great service; a great experience. https://texas-chili-parlor.club/ Go for lunch, and walk it off by touring...

The long national nightmare is indeed over.

What a strange question

Clem was here for 13 years and went to the NCAAs in 6 of them. That's realistic. There's little reason Minnesota can't be successful and relevant to at least that level.

I'm heartened by the idea that any article writer would say there's pressure on Johnson. That means that it's still realistic to have expectations here, which means there's still a heartbeat, although faint.

I would not draft him that high, but more power to him if he can get that. It would validate his decision to stay in the draft, for sure.

This streak has proven to be formidable. As God is my witness, I thought this thing was in the grave once the Wolves got past Denver, but the streak has been there before and knew what to do. It has had an answer for everything. Besides the 0-8 record in semifinal rounds, another remarkable...

What we've seen is that Connelly does not flinch when he sees the need or opportunity to make a drastic move. The question is whether he'd exercise restraint and pass up the chance to make a drastic move if the answer is to let the current roster grow and develop maturity. One way or another...

I think it was a questionable call, but I saw multiple way worse calls in the same game. We could break it down Zapruder-like, but I don't think it's as clear cut as some are making it out to be--on both sides.

No question. My uncertainty is what are they supposed to call when the defender also invades the shooters space--when both happen.

I think the refs are supposed to judge whether the shooter lunged forward in an "unnatural way" versus the defender jumping into his space. I do think that both occurred on the play, and I don't know what the officials are told to do in that kind of case. Although I thought it was one of the...

I'm just glad it isn't over. This has been fun, and the fun continues, at least for a bit. It's nice to have meaningful basketball to watch! I would not put it past this team to pull off the historic series comeback. It's still way uphill, but two out of the last three are at home. Like in that...
