@browsersatdv5 b/c they throw with just their arm instead of their whole body. It's counterintuitive that you don't want to be directly facing your target, you need to be turned 90 degrees with your opposite shoulder facing your target so that your torso rotates as you throw and follow through.
@AndrewBank Nearly lost my mind when he started talking about "pedigree" guys and listed KAT alongside a bunch of draft busts who have never made a single all-star team let alone six
@InlandCaGuy@GoodFundies No. Nimmo has 1 fWAR and Semien has 0, but that 1 win difference is all from the first few weeks of the season. Semien is ahead in fWAR only since April 13.
@JekPorkinsTrthr@GoodFundies No, that's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is "Semien has stunk so far this year, but Nimmo has stunk just as bad outside of that two week hot streak at the start of the season."
"Semien has stunk so far this year" is obviously not a defense of Semien lol
@ScottAStern@GoodFundies Patience. The grass is always greener on the other side, especially when you are 28-36. The Soto/Ewing/Benge outfield trio will bring us joy for years to come. The tweets that are frustrating you will stop eventually.
@ScottAStern@GoodFundies Nimmo is my beloved as well. He's a franchise legend, one of my all-time favorite Mets, and I have his jersey hanging up in my closet right now, but he's just not the player he used to be. With Benge and Ewing coming up, it was the right time to move on.
In between pressers at MSG, a scrum broke out around Fat Joe and Jadakiss.
Fat Joe with an all-timer on this Knicks run:
“I seen Hasidic Jews break dancing with Black kids. This is the greatest unification of the city since 9/11”
City vibes are hard to explain right now. There’s a guy smoking a cigar and holding a broom and everyone is shaking his hand as if he’s an essential worker during the pandemic.
The NBA so badly wants Wembanyama to be the story that they allowed an absolute mugging of Brunson, saddled Knicks stars with fouls, called back-to-back ridiculous fouls on the guy who was killing Wemby allowing VW to get game traction, didn't allow the Knicks a SINGLE second half FT until the Knicks forced their hands on an obvious foul call vs Anunoby by challenging with 2 mins left, and it still all failed.
Mike Brown just went with Bridges + 4 bench players (Mitch, Shamet, Deuce & Alvarado) to close the 3rd quarter of the Finals & they rewarded him by winning their minutes by 5 points.
What a team.
