The east is so bad that this team might just survive any playoff series, but their flaws are well known, and the strategy to exploit them is too. the key to them winning in the playoffs will be cade's ability to shake double teams and a second scorer to emerge, and how do they cover for duncan robinson's defense? can tobias be a reliable #2 scorer every night? can cade carry them despite constant double teams and making him work on defense? can anyone else space the floor besides robinson? is jb the coach to come up with this plan? i dont know. they need a trade pretty badly, imo. ivey was supposed to be that guy but injuries have apparently sapped him of all his previous explosiveness. use those #1 picks and get something of value for this year. grab yourself a porter: michael or bobby will do. get a second point guard. do something!

better than nothing, but not good enough in the atlantic.

were doomed.

there's nothing to fix. baseball's system aint broken.

bring back the reserve clause! screw you, curt flood. you ruined everything.

oh no... someone check on 84.... "detroit police today arrested a man for suspected assault of hockey legend steve yzerman. the man was said to be aggressively repeatledly yelling "where's wallinder, steve! where's wallinder?" police are baffled.

All athletes in top sports leagues have great athleticism and/or great skill. except the wnba. that sucks.

i cant wait for this summer when half this board suddenly becomes an expert in a 4-3-2-1 formation, and the other half keeps posting how boring it is because no one ever scores.

soccer betting is massive. if you think there are betting scandals in america, i point you to asian betting houses placing millions of euros/yuan/yen/bhat on 3rd division filipino games. anyone who watched south korea in 2002 world cup will know first hand how money can buy referees. or juventus in italy being relegated to serie c for "irregularities" or barcelona putting former refs' consultancies on the payroll. fantasy soccer is also huge. its the biggest sport in the world.

you re-sign be chairot for toughness, you've spent the last 3 or 4 drafts talking about getting players who are hard to play against, tough, and able to work the corners, and then you give it all away to take the softest, least reliable, least playoff tested player you can find? why? WHY? to play devils advocate to myself, you think you'll never be able to sign a skilled player, ep40 will blossom surrounded by the comfort of swedish players in detroit (fact: vancouver has more swedes than detroit), you already have toughness and now you need skill.... i have a hard time talking myself into this.

i liked steve dangle's piece on "can someone pkease get berube a hat? please?"

the only scenario would be for bench scoring.

kcp may not be a hall of famer, but he is a solid nba player with a good career and certainly better than trey burke. dumars screwed up a ton, but at least he got that one right.

its a lot easier to score a run in a high level baseball game than it is to score a goal in a high level soccer game, therefore scoring a goal in soccer takes more skill than scoring a run in baseball and soccer players are more skilled than baseball players. #chaslogic

i remember analytics people going gaga for troy stecher. then he got traded for a 7th rounder.

The bulls just lost to the pacers for the THIRD TIME THIS SEASON.

i'm assuming that the guys who replace them wont be able to shoot well either.

giannis and cade together? sounds good, but how would it work with no other spacing?

we might actually achieve 84's dream of seeing william wallinder next season.

remind me again why we signed caris lavert?

too low for the spurs and rockets.

the years are long, but the number is good in an expanding cap for a guy like chiarot. the wings - and the league - value physical defenseman more than the analytics crowd does. chiarot on your third pair next year is not bad. in 3 years i suspect he'll be in grand rapids a lot. at least i hope so.

if you think that tells you everything i would question your curiosity. i also question just how much you actually know about soccer

he's such a prima donna bitch. you should watch the 80s and 90s basketball and how much they beat the living **** out of you every game.

lucky they were playing denver's g league affiliate.
