The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[B Sox]

He wanted to be moved at the deadline. No minutes for him once Brogdon was added, and Mazz would play Hauser over him if they needed shooting because he has more size and was less of an issue defensively.

Hope he can find some minutes somewhere.

General Tso's chicken is an Americanized ethnic food, and it's great.

Turns out when you have add salt, sugar and fat to stuff it makes it highly unealthy and incredibly delicious.

Would love to see what an enterprising Canadian/American chef could do with Nigerian Quisine.

If I want the real I'll make it myself.

I agree with you about the food

But just sell me the food

White people remixing the culture and trying to sell that back to me is goofy.

Like when I am at Bahama Breeze, just bring me my damn tostones and empanadas and drop the struggle Jamcician accent Jessica.

Potentially "Contrarian" Opinion Alert;

Gentrified, Americanized versions of ethnic cuisine is good.
Authentic will always exist.

But it's fun to see how people innovate.
Sand down all the rough edges and just makes the food as unhealthy and broadly appealing as possible.

there's a chain of canadianized Shawarma restaurants Canada.

chicken shawarma poutine turns out is highly delicious.

I've always felt authenticity doesn't matter unless you are entering into a food competition where the legitimacy of the dish will be judged.

Other than that, the only thing that matters is how good the food tastes.

Bench players talking like starters I hate it.

Zaxbys > Chik FIL A

This is a good take.

Refusing to have kids with your wife because it would cut into the amount of time you spend trolling LeBron is wild.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

TBH AD did a pretty solid job.
Which is kinda scary, still got torched for a 120+ offensive rating,


Draymond maybe did a slightly better Job.


Jokic is just not stoppable at this point I don't think.

 

[MVP]

Had the Popeyes strawberry biscuit last week and that **** was godly.

You're welcome

 

[RustyShackleford]

At this point trying to defend Jokic is like trying to fight an oldhead black dude with big knuckles

No matter how well you think you can hang in there, it is gonna go terribly for you

That is just the way the world works

 

[va757va]

Heat ML +295

waaaay too much value.. lock me in

i got to see a game before i i take the money line.. in all over the heat +9 tho!!

 

[WASHED KING]

I hope Bam shut's Jokic down. I can't take much more of this.

Save us from these blog boys MVP Miami.

 

[frshstunna]

Bam in for a world of hurt this series, poor fella

 

[WASHED KING]

Praying for Jokic and Denver's downfall.

That city doesn't deserve a chip for how they treated Melo.

 

[nick.]

I hope Bam shut's Jokic down. I can't take much more of this.

Save us from these blog boys MVP Miami.

You on your knees praying to whatever god you believe in for Bam He'sabumyo to stop Nikola Jokic. Look at you.

 

[lovehateself]

I hope Bam shut's Jokic down. I can't take much more of this.

Nah he deadass said that Friday night is date night unless Lebron is playing



It's not hyperbole to say that the man is a generational hater, nothing else in his life comes before the hate

 

[p0tat0 5alad]

AD out here playing generational defense and Jokic was unbothered. It’s gonna take more than Bam

 

[moderndarwin]

lol

 

[osh kosh bosh]

I'm trying to imagine how the Heat win this.

If feel like you gotta try to put the game in the hands of the the 3 point varience gods.

Barricade the rim and paint at all costs, and hard double team Jokic on any post touch.

Force the Nuggets to shoot lots of 3s and hope they miss.

On the other end Jimmy has to destroy their pick and roll coverage, force them to put two on the ball.

Denver gives up to a of open 3s whenever they do that generally.

 

[sohi 23]

I think Bam/Heat can do a better job on Jokic than AD/Lakers did.

 

[WASHED KING]

Bam from the 2-5. He has that dawg in him.

Taking the Jokic under in points tonight AND Miami ML

 

[rolaholic]

Folks seem to be underrating Bam's defense because of the lapses he's had on offense. He's been playing as good as any big in the postseason on that end.

He's done a great job against Embiid, Giannis, Randle and the J's the last 2 postseasons.

Jokic is still gonna eat regardless but I don't think Spo and them are gonna make it easy at all for him
