Why? Trump Confirms Bitcoin Reserve Plans—$15 Trillion Price Boom Predicted

Trump solved the NJ drone mystery.

This is extremely odd. His contract doesn't become guaranteed until January 10th. He was a pretty nice trade chip until then for teams that wanted to dump salary. Not much of a reason to cut him like this.

Cup game ratings are in the toilet. Hawks-Knicks did 1.4M OKC-DAL did 1.4M MIL-ORL did 1.1M For context. MIL-Bos (Not a cup game) did 1.28M last Friday. Difference being, they didn't shut the rest of the league down. There was a full slate of games, unlike cup games.

Rutgers plays at 3PM today on Fox if you want to see Bailey and Harper.

I need a first round pick to take Lavine for salary filler. I need a second one if they want Ivey too.

It gives the student athletes a week off to concentrate on finals. Almost said it with a straight face.

I'm a sucker for anything CIA and/or black ops related. It is a good time to be a fan of those types of shows. Three I recommend right now: The Agency The Day of the Jackal Lioness

What is it with some guys?

Nope. He turns 30 in March and injury prone players usually don't fare well as they age.

If you had told me on draft night 3 years ago that Ivey would be scoring 17 ppg and shooting almost 37% from three in game 25 of season 3, I would have jumped for joy. Those are solid numbers for a third year player. Jaylen Brown was something like 13 ppg and 33% his third year. If he continues to develop he has a nice shot at being a 20-22 PPG player that shoots 38%-40% from three next year. That is a $30M a year guy all day. Especially since we already know the cap will rise by 10% each year for the next 3-4 years due to the new TV contract. By year 2 and 3 of a $30M a year deal he will be making less than 15% of the cap. Even if things go totally wrong, that contract doesn't hurt you at all. Plus, on the chance he does hit the numbers are projected, you just saved $15M a year because at those numbers he gets a lot more expensive than $30M a year. So whats an Ivey trade look like? He wont bring back a lottery pick, at least not for the next two years. The drafts are too good and people will demand lottery protection the picks. So a trade wont bring help until a few years from now at best. Not real Ivey wont bring back a star in a trade. Even packaged with other Pistons, there isn't enough to put together a trade for a star. So a trade seems like a lateral move at best. The time to trade everyone was this past summer. That includes at least listening to Cade trade offers. I said this summer that being bad enough not to make the playoffs but good enough not to secure the 5th pick is the worst possible position to be in. Here we are. Bad odds at obtaining a top pick. No cap space. Players with some trade value, but not likely to bring back anything special. Coming up on two decades of it now.

It's going to end up being some marketing thing isn't it?

Not a good shooter. Solid/OK on defense. Eh, depends on price I guess.

Yeah, it's related to the greatest tournament in the history of sports. I don't think any of tonight's games were on the schedule at the start of the season. They were added as teams were eliminated from the tournament.

The 4:30PM injury report now has Duren listed as questionable with a right wrist sprain.

Klintman and the G-League guys are the only ones listed on the Pistons injury report.

I just received the email from YouTube TV raising the price another $10 a month. It's now up to $82.99 a month for the base package and that does not include FanDuel or whatever the local sports thing is that's another $20 for that app. I think it's probably time to look at bundling our TV with our internet provider and going back to cable. Xfinity at least carries FanDuel.

Think this is on NBATV for your out of towners.

I guess not. She doesn't do anything with billing codes. But her boss brought these up in a staff meeting. I guess they were going for hyper accurate tracking and it created a bunch of goofy codes. She listed off a few more. Prolonged stay in weightless environment Spacecraft collision Injured at the opera house Struck by turtle Swimming pool of prison as the place of occurrence of the external cause Inadequate social skills

The girl told me tonight that there is a medical billing code for "Burn due to water skis on fire" I should have believed her. https://www.icd10data.com/ICD10CM/Codes/V00-Y99/V90-V94/V91-/V91.07
