Tough day at the office for Cleveland State

Tough day at the office for Cleveland State
This is generally a very good list, but Jabari Smith Jr. is clearly a better player than Tari Eason.
IMO, Bari is such a steady player that he often gets undervalued relative to peaks-and-valleys guys.
6-foot-11, good defender at multiple positions, 39% on 3s, decent handle, low usage. So valuable

Thanksgiving 2025. Yes, I wore the Stranger Things/Rockets mashup because that’s basically what I’ve done over the past 24 hours

Man, the Warriors seem sad. I guess someone forgot to tell them that last night didn’t matter

Reed Sheppard now ranks No. 5 in the entire NBA in box plus-minus. The only four players ahead: Jokic, SGA, Giannis, Luka.
It’s only one advanced metric, but that is jaw-dropping to see

The predictable replies are an amazing self-own.
"The child's game we spend thousands of hours each year watching and talking about? You're a joke if you get excited about it more than 1% of the time."
That logic always says far more about the sad state of the person making the argument

The overhead camera angle is the one to look at, not the one from the side. Watch the line. Amen didn't deviate from it

Amen is going in a straight line. The only way he can avoid the contact is if he literally goes away from the rim

That was a technical foul flop on Aaron Holiday 10 days ago.
Tonight, it's an offensive foul in a tie game with 3:00 left.

Jabari and Holiday both missed 2-footers in a 1-point game. Just brutal
Jabari had two chances to get a rebound and he was soft the whole time

Whispers: That transition layup that JD made through contact (probably should've been a foul, too), I don't think the previous Rockets guard wearing No. 4 converts in that building
