Yeah yeah. He was incredible in the second half last night. The stakes weren't as high as some of his greatest moments, but that was a peak level performance he put on.

How long has she been with the Spurs? Feels like it can’t be much longer than 2 years but maybe I’m wrong. Time is flying by these days.

Maybe run2death has some insight on how she’s done so far.

Just saw a gif of Curry’s little flex-shimmy after an and 1. I can’t believe there aren’t a half dozen Verb posts reacting to it.

It's been more than two years. She's overrated by Pop and everyone else simply because she is a woman. If the Bucks hire her she would probably have to go 0-82 4 years in a row before they'd fire her.

I get that Kerr has back problems but the way he lounges in his chair on the sideline is at least partly because he is an arrogant drug addict.

Not only is LeBron certain to go back to the finals, now he will be able to coast a little doing it. Celtics don't match up like Sixers would have.

She provides both strategic insights and interesting/entertaining personal anecdotes. She has relationships with many in and around the league, but isn't afraid to be critical. Finally, she is really good at catching susbsitutions/assignments/plays on the fly.
