You are forgetting the only real important part, and that’s the Knicks currently are the protagonists of the universe and the Spurs are the villains, top-to-bottom just not good people and menaces to society
Shame how good but young this spurs team is. The Knicks are great, sure - but they are absolutely getting the benefit of a young team making terrible decisions at the end of these games
The flip side: the greatest collapse ever. Barkley is right: the Spurs just played dumb, hoisting 3s when they didn’t have to. Their inexperience bit them, bit them hard.
🚨 EXCL: Bayern Munich exploring move to sign Rio Ngumoha. 17yo Liverpool winger primary #FCBayern target for left side & aware of pursuit. No contact yet between clubs. #LFC insist not for sale + plan to strengthen attack rather than weaken @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/mYbWdds6Ip
@PhilBlundell As happy as I was to see Edwards coming back to take the reins in the post-Klopp era, there’s still a lot to be answered over how their limiting a manager’s power affects the ability to get the right man for the job
Breaking: The NBA's Board of Governors has passed new anti-tanking rules that include expanding the draft lottery from 14 to 16 teams, a relegation zone where the bottom 3 teams get penalized with lessened chances for the No. 1 pick, and flattened odds, sources tell ESPN.
@BackseatsmanLFC@AnfieldIndex Really makes you think whether they’re all going (Edwards too w/ multi club model scrapped) and it’s too big of a change they feel comfortable announcing in season. Alonso has been waiting half a season to take a job. It lines up, even if it’s wishful thinking
@actionjack69 It’s all set up for a charmed franchise to be shit once in a blue moon in a year where there’s expectation of a handful of first round worthy QBs
The entire NFL draft media doing this thing this morning. You don’t even have to look and you know some “good organizations” did some abysmal work this weekend
FYI: It’s unfair to judge a team’s draft class based on Consensus Boards. Without a thorough understanding of the team’s plans for the team, players, or scheme, it’s impossible to suggest a pick is good or bad.
Teams build their draft boards based on grades that project how a player will perform or contribute within their system, the Consensus Boards and media scouting reports lack that context. Without a clear understanding of the “why” behind each pick, critics are missing some key tidbits that are critical to a full assessment.
In the NFL, it takes 2-3 years to determine whether players can play or not. That’s why we should reserve judgment until we see how the players perform and how teams utilize their personnel. That’s not fun, but none of us are privy to the 32 draft boards or the schematic or personnel discussions prior to the draft.
We can debate who was selected and where they were picked, but until we understand the why and see how it plays out between the lines, we are still playing the guessing game.
@JCaporoso@actionjack69 I think it’s fair to have the expectation of an instant impact and be disappointed with anything less. I was majorly pro-Reese at 2 but the appeal of Bailey being readymade as a pass rusher is real and he’s the (very early) betting odds favorite for DROTY for a reason
What I’ll say about the Klubnik pick is it’s not “uniquely Jets bad” - every QB drafted this year sans Mendoza has been over drafted by at least 1 round and that includes 2 playoff teams. We’re doing it regular bad, just like everyone else!
Basically, it sucks but it doesn’t detract from what I think was an overall pretty strong weekend. Feel better about Mougey now than I did going into it
