Spacing Clingan out is to shoot threes is not a recipe for success.

Another player - along with Ngongba and Mullins - who wasn’t remotely on my radar for the Grizzlies. Maybe one of them levels up for the ‘27 draft and things are different.
Chelsea's lost without the ability to sign a Leicester player every year
The good news is that Leicester aren't going to have any players who interest Chelsea for a few decades
Some early thoughts on potential Ja Morant trade partners, the Grizzlies’ second-pick landing spot and the start of the playoffs:

Playoff basketball is a completely different sport. This is wild.
The non-Brunson minutes were pretty tough on offense for the Knicks. Threw the ball all over, but defended ATL really well when they could keep ATL in the half court.

🪢 Jamal Murray, doubled up
🍭 The Knicks, in motion
🍳 Deandre Ayton, keeping it simple
🪞 Jayson Tatum, mirroring
🐝 The Thunder, swarming
🧱 Paolo Banchero, posting
👻 Victor Wembanyama, scary hours

It’s another shorty, but goodie.
Never read it, but am aware of it. You might want to try Foster, by Keegan.
Radu, Pahlinha, Danso to an extent are so limited that our opponents can just push the ball to them and we don’t have the full squad passing skill to compensate for it. That is my opinion.
I’d push back on your push back (we agree on recruitment quality I think) in that the club as a whole has de-prioritized passing tactically which is at least partly to blame for some of the player passing regression. And carrying a single bad passer is harder now than it was four years ago
Lmao the Magic flat quit on their coach until tonight they were like “okay fine, we’ll play.”
Grizzlies fans, oh yet again, punched in the nuts by another team’s draft pick obligation
I don't think I realized that ATL is like 43% to get a top 4 pick with that NOP/MIL 1st. Arguably this is the most valuable 1st round pick ever traded in this era of lottery reform.

Since having kids, my politics are the same, but the stakes are higher.
GSW was three and one against Phoenix season and I guess the real question is whether the suns can score against the Warriors in the half court if they can’t get enough transition points.
I think Orlando loses tonight and I hope Steph and Podz have enough threes to win that one too.
Lmao the body isn’t cold and Doc is already on the BS podcast doing a “playoff preview.”
Also up today: The Ringer's 2026 playoff entry survey, with tidbits from me, @michaelvpina.bsky.social, @dannychau.bsky.social, @tylerparker.bsky.social, @isaaclevyrubinett.bsky.social and @mattdollinger.bsky.social
The best time of the year is finally here!
But brace yourself for all the off-court drama that will almost certainly intrude on the NBA playoffs. Latest from me, at The Ringer:
I should learn not to voice post when on a show floor.
Lmao….. FLAT PLACES.
I have strained my Achilles once in college severely, and then once during soccer much less severely. I’ve never had tibia trouble, but as a small suggestion, I’ll say that if you can find black places to run or ride the bike, that has helped me.
The status quo is that the rules exist because they needed to give Amazon assurances they would fix player participation, but now they are relaxing the rules on an arbitrary basis because they are bad rules.
won't speak for everyone, but I feel the difference now is that emotionally, there's no impetus to "understand" the voters, because we tried that and it got us T again, and that might lead to less agenda creation.
Well that’s a depressing chart for GA dems.
