Mentally unwell about Duke basketball, the Warriors, and Philly sports. At least I’ve got emo music for when any of them let me down.
Still alive, just always traveling 😎

Happy draft day to all who celebrate. If the Mavs don’t handle Cooper Flagg’s career perfectly, I am considering it an act of war.

I am never going to emotionally recover from watching Hali scream and pound the floor after his injury last night. I have many complaints about the game itself, but the top one is that it just sucks to lose the brightest star of the playoffs in the biggest game of the season. Get well soon, Hali!

The Pacers/Thunder game last night was honestly incredible. A superstar coming back while actively injured after he and his team slept through the last game only to play the tightest, most beautiful game of the series was absolute cinema. God bless basketball.

I know the Lakers are perhaps the most valuable franchise in history, $10 billion is just an unfathomable amount of money to me.

Cooper Flagg is ready for the league. I know people have high expectations for him, but I really think with the right team and right situation, he’ll surpass them all. @ Dallas Mavericks, do not fuck this up for me.

It’s nice to know it’s not just normal markets that are inflated, it’s also the NBA trade market. Bane is NOT worth all of this wtf
FROM SHAMS:

BREAKING: The Memphis Grizzlies are trading Desmond Bane to the Orlando Magic for Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Cole Anthony, four unprotected first-round picks and one first-round pick swap, sources tell ESPN. https://t.co/UcQnmHbgZb

I love the Magic rebrand in every way, EXCEPT the font. Soulless corporate loser ass font.

This is also my fault, I turned the game off for a bit to get cute videos of my friend’s baby and clearly that canceled out my good juju.

Casty’s slutty little unbuttoned jersey will always be my favorite thing.

Phillies just needed me to watch in order to play correctly, apparently.

Go Pacers 🫡

Wearing an Eagles jacket while I travel today. The woman next to me on my flight tapped me on the shoulder to say she loves my jacket, because even though she’s a Cowboys fan, “Jason Kelce is the best human to ever touch a football.” Adorable lol

TGIF.

Hearing rumblings of Scheyer adding a member of the brotherhood to the coaching staff, and I am hoping with all my heart that it’s Quinn Cook. One of the best humans to ever wear a Duke jersey, he embodies everything about what the brotherhood stands for and I would LOVE to have him home.

A Thunder-Pacers NBA Finals is the ultimate “Do you know ball?” litmus test.

If you are excited about said matchup, congratulations! You know ball.

If you are too preoccupied with TV ratings to enjoy said matchup, sadly, you do not know ball.

Every time I see people use AI generated art, especially of themselves, it gives me the ick SOOO bad.

I had one of those super boring and realistic dreams last night where I was digging through a pile of my clothes and came across a couple of Celtics shirts that I bought because they were on sale, and the only way I knew it was a dream and not real life was bc I hadn’t cropped the shirts. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Man. Haliburton is SO likable. He started the season rough, but I feel like he’s really found his groove on the court and I LOVE seeing how his confidence has evolved and how he now looks for the shot just as much as, if not more than, he looks for the pass.

Cedric Coward is staying in the NBA draft and you really can’t blame the kid, he’s set himself up for success and there’s no guarantee he’ll get enough minutes at Duke to put him in a better position next year. Would’ve loved to have him, but will root for him in the league as if he had come anyways

I know the Warriors will be fine, but reading this has me GUTTED. Steph loves this so much, man. I would do anything for him to be healthy and be a god in the playoffs.

Good morning, Dub Nation 😌
May 5, 2025 at 4:26 PM
Thinking about how on Friday night this guy was being utterly relentless about hitting on me for hours... until he made the mistake of bringing up basketball and said Steph is overrated. Let me tell you, that man will have no fond thoughts about me now. 😌💙

As a Harden hater, all I can do is giggle nefariously.
May 4, 2025 at 2:48 AM
James Harden with a classic James Harden game tonight eh? Disappearing in the playoffs is quintessential Harden.
