Ernie: “Brunson comes down on Wemby’s foot. No call.”
Shaq: “Ooooh.”
Chuck: “That should have been a flagrant.”
Ernie: “And if it had been a flagrant, Wemby sits Game 6.”
Chuck: “Well he can still sit Game 6.”
@barstoolsports Disrespect. The @NBA anointing him has gotten in his head.
The Spurs beat an injured OKC team, and burned themselves out with high intensity on ball defense for the first Half then faded into fatigue purgatory.

@NekiasNBA@stevejones20@dunkerspotpod@YahooSports it is a direct consequence of fatigue.
They’re burning themselves out in the first half without enough gas in the tank to maintain that level of play, physically, mentally, and emotionally, through the second half.
@NekiasNBA@stevejones20@dunkerspotpod@YahooSports young. As is their coach.
And when you come out as hot as they do, taking 10 point leads into the second quarter in every game with equally intensive on ball defense throughout the first half, building a 27 point and then lead look listless and lost in the second half,
With all the corruption flooding out of this administration, you may have missed this one.
The Trump DOJ just killed a criminal investigation into the coal empire owned by Senator Jim Justice, a Republican and one of Trump’s closest allies.
Prosecutors and EPA investigators were probing whether his family’s mining companies criminally violated the Clean Water Act after racking up tens of thousands of alleged pollution violations over the past decade. The arsenic and other dangerous chemicals coal mines leach into our water are exactly what these laws exist to stop.
Career prosecutors believed they had a strong case.
They had begun gathering evidence and issuing subpoenas. Then the Deputy Attorney General’s office, run at the time by Todd Blanche, told them “pencils down.” A former prosecutor of 24 years said he had never heard of a criminal probe being shut down like this. There should be no untouchables list.
This is the pattern, plain as day.
Go after the President’s enemies, protect his friends. And now Trump wants to make Blanche his permanent Attorney General.
The man who shut this down should not be running the Justice Department. For this and so many other reasons, Todd Blanche must not be confirmed.

@CT24305@IanBegley Working to get position and bang on wemby to Box him out. That’s called basketball. Ans Wemby’s height, while an advantage, comes with negative consequences as well.
Scientists at Trump’s EPA say they are being told to make chemical risks “disappear on paper.” Not to study or manage them, but to make them vanish.
When a safety test on a household chemical shows danger, supervisors reportedly ask to keep shrinking the scenario until the poison looks safe.
They have reassigned senior scientists to paperwork and handed life-and-death risk assessments to staff with less experience. They have installed former chemical industry lobbyists to run the very offices that are supposed to regulate the chemical industry.
A gift to industry, paid for with your family’s health.
They are even throwing out research on how certain chemicals hit certain communities harder, calling decades of established science “DEI.”
You can make risk disappear on paper.
The cancer does not disappear.
The birth defects do not disappear.
The infertility does not disappear.
The kids drinking the water and getting sick do not disappear.
The EPA exists to protect people, not to protect the profit margins of the people poisoning them.
Every American deserves to know what is happening. #TrumpMakesUsSick

Being a Knick fan doesn’t mean being disrespectful to Spurs fans in any way…we get caught up during the games but we gotta show respect to our fellow humans…
they win this series, and that's a big "If," there will be a #clickbait narrative about their path to the chip. That's just hating on NYC. And that don't amount to the hill of beans that narrative comes from. #AlwaysKnicks#CloseTheDeal An historic run must end with said chip.
Sorry I didn't waste money on a blue check, but I've been breaking down this iteration of the Knicks since 2018 season. They are the best Knicks team I've seen. Ever. They've buzz sawed through the East, and are now 1-0, wresting home court from a 62 win team. If - #AlwaysKnicks
