"Gettin' pantsed-a for Dybantsa"???

Oh ye of little faith! 68 wins or bust!

I think the Warriors are looking at it that way. Unless they play ball on a S&T, there's ~0% chance Kuminga can get more than the MLE this year. Maybe they wait for us to offer an MLE deal and Kuminga to sing it, then match. The way they're richarding him around I don't imagine Kuminga would...

Well, they can't wait if Kuminga actually signs a full MLE deal in RFA. They have a couple of days to put up or shut up in that case. Since it seems pretty clear that there's no bigger offer out there barring a S&T (obviously the Warriors don't seem to be interested in offering more) Kuminga's...

Not gonna lie, there have been 44 games picked (excluding mine) and I've played probably two of them. There's a third where there's a game that I played very briefly at somebody else's house that was part of the franchise, but I'm not sure it was the one picked. So maybe three. That's...

This does kind of point to Carter being traded, doesn't it?

San Antonio didn't. I'm really not interested in playing the "let's try to make a three-team deal with 28 other teams in the league" game. It's tedious.

Ah, dysentery on a flurosescent green screen! Pepperidge Farm remembers.

For my fourth round pick in the Video Games draft I select: Astro Bot (2024, PS5) I previously said that I'd only ever bought two game consoles specifically to play a single game - the PS5 was the other (but that game, sadly, was already off the board before my first pick). Still, I've...

For my third round pick in the Video Games draft I select: Metroid (1986, NES) Metroid was one of the classics on the NES, and almost certainly the first "hard" game that I ever beat. I don't remember exactly how much time it took, but it was more of a feat than Super Mario Bros. - and...

No. MLE would be the best offer we could make to Kuminga (what is it this year, $14.something). Still, even $14M would put them close. They only have $25M of space and would need to add in three more minimum deals at ~$2M a pop...But they would have a little elbow room there.

We don't have cap space to sign Kuminga outright and he's an RFA. The Warriors are completely in the driver's seat with respect to any sign and trade - they don't want to do it, it doesn't happen.

One second and one second swap? This dude is no Cam Whitmore!

The Spurs didn't have expiring contracts. OK, they may have had like one or two min deals, but they legitimately had at least 10 non-expiring contracts at the time of the trade. They wanted to send out guys like Devin Vassell (4 years as of today), Keldon Johnson (2 years as of today), and...
