  1. well cade is actually hurt, unlike a lot of stars on other teams who just sit out certain games.
  2. that's the initial question the court will address. if they stop the analysis there and rule that the government cannot amend the law in thia fashion, they are likely to get an 8-1 or 9-0 decision.
  3. Lord, grant me the confidence of Caris Lavert.
  4. lawyers answer "perhaps" questions all the time at oral argument. especially at the supreme court. i understand what youre saying, but this particular administration cannot - and should not - be trusted on this issue. or any issue, really. in fact, if the SG had argued ONLY that the EO should be applied as a way to end "birth tourism" then they might have had a better chance. but they didnt. they went for the full "ark should be overturned" type analysis.
  5. come on now, were building a team that contends for the final playoff spot every year! who wouldnt want that kind of mediocrity?
  6. why do you do this to yourself? The sign outside LCA should read "Abandon hope, all ye who enter here."
  7. Maybe. The government is seeking only prospective relief, meaning that the EO is looking to end birthright citizenship for a particular class of persons moving forward. as you state. However, when the SG was asked at oral argument whether the administration would seek to apply its order retroactively, the SG refused to say that it would not. In other words, the government did not commit that it would not look to rescind the citizenship of US citizens who were naturalized under old laws. As Justice Sotomayor noted, the US has done this before when it rescinded citizenship for american indians. Given the cruel nature of this administration in regards to non-white immigrants, and the bipolar nature of donald trump, i dont think you can say with any certainty he would not look to deport as many brown people as his government agents could get their hands on. And if you disagree, why dont you ask stephen miller what he thinks.
  8. i'll be interested to see how teams guard wemby in the playoffs. i suspect they'll just try to beat the **** out him.
  9. i was there in january, once the leaves get on the trees and the flowers bloom, i suspect IU will be great.
  10. detroit is in first place this year by a mile and theyre probably the 3rd or 4th favorite to come out of the east. next year they will likely be lower unless they make a big move this summer. boston and cleveland are the two favorites for sure. detroit is probably behind thw knicms because people overrate the knicks. same thing for philly.
  11. i'd be willing to be that new orleans would give up a lot for stew. like...maybe another unprotected first?
  12. nyah. yaxel can play. big who can guard 2-3-4. can shoot, pass, and is a willing teammate. can take over a game when they need it. he's been the best player in the tournament. only downside is his age but the pistons are built to win in cade's prime, which is coming up. morez johnson is another one they could take. defensive forward like stewart.
