Worst job in the world

[Jackson Lloyd @JacksonLloyd]

You are seeing proof of concept for the trade

James Harden is able to absorb All-NBA caliber defenders, can make plays in isolation, and has helped a supercharge the bigs

Having a player who does that and can credibly guard 2-4 (He guards, he really does) is huge

Spent time tonight on Paul Reed even; you can’t do that with a smaller guard

Darius Garland will be an all-star caliber player for years to come but Harden is an All-NBA guy still & such a unique fit with this core

*They also did it to have more optionality in the event that they lost earlier than expected, they are getting out in front of the small guard market (See: Trae Young)

Once a cheater always a cheater is a label I've gotten before. But I'm also #1 in my Russian roulette league so......worth it.

I guess I'll have to blog about this tomorrow, but "LOL, Trump TACO'ed out" is decidedly not the right reaction as compared to "that kind of brinkmanship is really fucking dangerous".

@MatthewBerryTMR this has to be one of the craziest losses

[Joe Bates @JoeBatesComedy]

Team won by less than a point. The next morning their defense was stat corrected removing two points because yahoo says Cooper Rush dropped a ball but didn't fumble. Yahoo counts it like that but ESPN/NFL say he did fumble @YahooFantasy @DannyBKelly @craighorlbeck @Danny_Heifetz

[Joe Bates @JoeBatesComedy]

Holy shit nevermind Yahoo literally stat corrected a stat correction

If that Spears TD isn't an @ArtButSports I don't know what is @Danny_Heifetz

@Danny_Heifetz There is literally only one team that makes sense.

A lot of people wonder after they give thanks, where does it go?

To me, it always goes to me.

You're welcome.
