    Someone at work just whispered in my ear: _Lakers may have found something_

    Ain’t that the truth.

    Lakers comeback starts today, we better be ready.

    I just whispered in /u/lunar_alpenglow’s mom’s ear: *Lakers may have found something*

    hi there! I’m the dipshit in charge of Nuggets uniforms! The Nuggets are in the Finals for the first time ever, and there is no possibility of them wearing a skyline jersey. This is because I have a big wet turd in my skull as opposed to a brain. AMA

    Who’s ready for a moral victory today? Carpe diem

  9. TheOrthodoxPolock

    The Nuggets will never play again. The Celtics will never lose again. I’m done with this team, see y’all next season.

    If you haven’t said “go Nuggets” recently, are you even really living?

    The media reaction to Ognjena and Jok pointing at their palms while waving to eachother is such a perfect distillation of why the guy hates dealing with the media.

    * dude does a private thing with his toddler that comes from their culture, and references it while waving to her in the stands
    * the media goes OMG HE POINTED AT HIS RING FINGER AND SO DID SHE IS HE GONNA WIN A RING FOR HIS DAUGHTER WERE HER FIRST WORDS “RINGS THO DADDY”?!
    * Jok specifically addresses it, several times, even though he hates talking about his family in the media even more than talking about his own celebrity status
    * Nobody cares, and now HIS DAUGHTER POINTED AT HER RING FINGER is just part of [articles like this](https://kdvr.com/news/local/denver-nuggets-nikola-jokic-ties-wedding-ring-to-shoe-before-every-game/) that may or may not have been shat out by ChatGPT

    You know how good the Bomani Jones interview was? I’m now subscribing to two ESPN people’s podcasts, that’s how good it was.

    So I’ve done like $200 in business in Taiwan over the last few days, I wonder how they found me. Maybe someone shared my site on one of their basketball forums or something? Weird, but super cool.

    I feel very restricted because this isn’t a free talk Friday.

  22. UnderratedNightmare

    Oh thank the universe. I get my first Saturday off and first full weekend off since the first week of April!

    Hello, I noticed that there are 180k subscribers to this sub yet I have not received 180k offers from people who would like to buy me tickets to the NBA Finals? Obviously there has been some sort of mistake.

    Denver is winning all of the regulation quarters, and 6 of 8 half-quarters. Their scoring is down a little from the regular season. The exception is the 4th quarter. This is true for both Denver and their opponents. The biggest change is in 4th quarter point differential. In the regular season, Denver was at -0.2. Now, they sit at +2.7. This suggest that the team is good at playing well when the situation is high pressure.

    Can someone link me that clip of Jok’s brothers hugging him while he lifts backstage after game 4 with the Steve Miller Band song in the background? They were talking about it on DNVR, but I’m too dumb to find it.

  33. FivePointsPlay

    It’s official: I’m flying into Denver for the Big Game. Anyone have any recommendations for good places to get Taco Bell?

    The lakers had the highest free throw differential (+6.5 per game) for a team that got swept. So it wasnt as close as ppl make it out.
