Wemby’s enormous value to the sport and to player fanbases is that he’s so self evidently the best player alive he gives all the other top-5 convo guys an underdog quality and secretly that’s the dream fan dynamic.

implied touch vs applied touch
players where there only indicator of touch is FT% (no jumper and/or floater volume)
projecting these players to shoot itl , can get murky cuz the desire to actually shoot jumpshots generally isnt there (1/3)
crine man team scoring like 3 goals a game god forbid u don’t get 25 shots vs a prem team. sports discourse might have been better when broadband internet meant u could only publish an opinion once a month and every result didn’t need an apotheosis
this what I mean by defensive variance this is a career bad pick dodger phasing through one of the best screeners on the planet in a low-clock situation because he’s comfy being aggressive and early with that top foot knowing his matchup doesn’t have time to drive
DREAMS (1990). Absolutely stunning in the Criterion 4K restoration, probably the greatest director who ever lived somehow becomes even more vibrant, elemental, & resonant in old age. Dreamy, seemingly simplistic little folk sketches that somehow encompass all of life & death.

Someone made a list of subgenres of film noir, and then make a list of films within each subgenre. This is the motherlode, folks:

This team is silently the pinnacle of off-screen usage, up there with Golden State IMO. Some counters they're pulling out I haven't seen before
Like this counter flare vs switch in Stack is nasty
Was very upset when this play ended in a turnover because of how beautiful it was
Celtics go to Veer Wide but based on how OG plays it Queta flips the screen to a Flare and PG recognizes it quick
Celtics get easy 2on1 on this play because of the Veer screen (fake on ball into off ball)
Queta acting like he was going to set on ball for White gets KAT involved in that - not sure why PP wasn’t in corner but wanna see them use this again
