  1. He’s also been horribly inefficient and an overall huge net negative.
  2. Also putting some down on the under. Placed a small bet on KC as well, and considering adding.
  3. Also where did you read Zach isn’t doing the slam dunk? Most recent interview I saw he is still considering. It looks like he wants to do the 3 point contest too. Maybe he’s gonna say both or none to the NBA?
  4. Lavine should have gotten a spot. Like would it really have mattered if Lowry was left off and LaVine was added? It could have gone either way, why not give it to Lavine? Booker being left off is beyond ridiculous, as well, if you’re really that insistent on getting the most deserving players in. Especially when you put Ingram in ahead of him.
  5. Wendell Carter’s inclusion is a bit perplexing. WS/48 of .144,TS% of .592. He seemingly can’t stay healthy and when he is, he can’t stay out of foul trouble. But he’s been a fairly efficient, not terrible, player. Certainly not the cornerstone GarPax and others wanted us to believe, but I never thought he’d be the kind of guy. A good 3rd piece on a really good team who can provide value with a low usage rate.
  6. Sad day. But I like the high upside/low risk moves Theo has made lately with our bullpen
  7. Pretty sure they’re both going to be great. I know. Not some earth shattering statement considering they’re both going to be #1 overall picks. I’d lean Burrow as well.
  8. I still think I'd rather go cheap for three years and see what I have, but the rewards certainly can be worth the risk. I don’t disagree. I think the more of these you can pull off (with prospects that actually warrant it) the more you can minimize your risk. For example, had the Cubs done it with all their top prospects, the hit on KB and Javy would have more than made up for the miss on Russell, for example. Hard to say that though since there’s no way Boras would have ever allowed KB to agree to such a thing
  9. I like these moves. Between Eloy and Robert, they’ve committed $100M. Very likely they get at least that much value in return, with a high probability of getting value that far exceeds that amount.
  10. I’m in the mindset to go for 2 with the first TD you score.
  11. Shot 30%. Luckily missed this game. Kawhi and PG had over 40 a piece last night.
  12. More juice please
  13. Good
  14. All true. But at least the fact that they’ve shown up in the playoffs/championship games and performed well gives them the benefit of the doubt. I’m sure they’ll give LSU a great championship game this year too.
  15. Wisconsin lost to Illinois. They don’t deserve a playoff bid. And each team will have beaten the other once with Wisconsin having one additional loss (see above).
  16. Can’t really argue with you based on performance this year so far. Dude is playing so good. Giannis, Harden, and Doncic have been a clear top 3. With Lebron a smidge below but clearly #4.
  17. With what draft pick? 2 2nd rounders
  18. Coby had one hell of a 4th quarter last night.
  19. Any recommendation for a sports bar in Milwaukee to watch football tomorrow? Luckily packers play at 3.
  20. Who are these people and what did they do with Mitch and Matt?
  21. This week. It’s amazing he wasn’t cut immediately yesterday.
  22. Well then
  23. Only $50. I'm a casual bettor on a budget. Still good bet. I was thinking about it. The value was obviously there. Just never got around to putting it in.
  24. How much you bet?
  25. Because there are a lot of really bad teams. And they improved a lot from the start of last season (Thaddeus, Otto, Wendell, and Coby). I wouldn’t now write them off based on one very poor defensive performance on the road. If it was a home loss to them, then sure. Still, defense looked about as bad as any team I’ve ever seen.
