Britt Robson enjoyer. Defense appreciator. Put Cheryl in charge of the Wolves (and everything else)

Surprised Finch didn’t go to Alize Johnson sooner. Real missed opportunity there.

First stint was fine. Second half was mediocre at best.

It is telling that the social media reaction is so positive to his play being a half-step above passable.

By far Rob’s best game so far, but it’s not saying much.

Knicks announcers:

“The pump fake on repeat there from Randle. We’ve seen that before!”

Lol.

I want Dillingham’s talent to match his attitude but it just doesn’t yet & I hope he figures that out this year instead of sulking all year about not playing again.

He’s still a liability instead of an asset 90% of the time and that doesn’t really equal an abundance of minutes on a contending team.

I like the direction he’s going with it. Kind of DLo-ish.

Remember last preseason when Ant was clapping his hands and locking up Brunson?
jmcdanielsstpen.bsky.social
Ant aggressively seeking post-up situations. Not just fading away—he has a nice step through move from the post.

Really cool and powerful for @christopherhine.bsky.social to discuss his mental health journey on Dane's pod today.

Thanks for sharing Chris!

I am very troubled by Enrique Freeman’s team worst -15. I will be contemplating this well into the morning.

Even though it’s preseason, it reaffirms the recurring theme of them not being as prepared and serious as other top teams.

The next pod is almost certain to include: “the kid didn’t have his best game, but we need to give him time.”

Juzang would have hit that potential game-winner.

I think you’re failing to distinguish between a lineup (teams try dozens of them) and a starting lineup. I never said I wanted Naz to start or that he should be a backup 3. There should be lineups where he is the 3.

It doesn’t take a genius to infer that 3 bigs might not work against a track team.

“I didn’t watch the OT of the Timberwolves preseason game.”

Oh, so what you’re telling me is you hate basketball.
jmcdanielsstpen.bsky.social
Every single lineup a team uses needs to work against every team? And every lineup from those teams? That’s not how the sport works.
jmcdanielsstpen.bsky.social
A less than ideal outing for the Naz at the 3 lineup I’ve been dying for.

To be fair, the Pacers are not the ideal matchup for that group.

I’ve been using Brick on my phone to get more writing done so I had this app blocked and failed to send out a quote of his absolutely mendacious analysis.

Embarrassing shit.

Fate of the world on the line: are you taking Juzang or IGOUDALA

I’m excited to hear Kyle Thiege spin Rob’s performance.
jmcdanielsstpen.bsky.social
Rocco Zikarsky has a better chance of contributing to a Wolves championship than Rob Dillingham does.
jmcdanielsstpen.bsky.social
On rewatch, I'm going to say that Zeke Nnaji absolutely posterizing Beringer was the most cursed play of that preseason game.
jmcdanielsstpen.bsky.social
It was a mistake for me to frame it in terms of ordinary people because I think of it more in terms of serious intellectual positions. I don’t think that Jared represents the tendency you have in mind.

We’re probably not far apart. I just think most people who are willing to name what’s happening “fascism” are also aware that racism is a problem. I think we all need to be in lockstep even if our rank orderings of various oppression differ slightly. I prefer a Popular Front strategy over KPD v. SPD
