Used these minutes projections to get projected minutes-weighted age for each team. This would make the Clippers the oldest team of all time by over a full year.

Bluesky has a growth problem
Bluesky has hit 38M monthly users, up 8M since March
Once adding 5M users per month, it’s now slowed to 1.6M. A 60% drop
But post volume is falling—more users, less activity
It risks becoming a ghost town with a loyal but shrinking core

Indiana is really taking advantage of some low hanging fruit in the last 2 playoffs- pressure the opposing ball-handler to force them to take more time to get into their actions & get into your own actions sooner!

The Luka trade was never about this year. Lakers are an incomplete and unbalanced roster, but if that’s the cost for getting a perennial MVP candidate in his prime, you take that hit. Their play after the trade probably got hopes too high because they were always going to have playoff weak spots.

Two games is a small sample size, especially against a single opponent, as in the playoffs. But here are some team notes:
- OKC completely shutting down MEM on 3s and transition. Actually everything.
- HOU still best rebounding team
- MIL bad from 3 thus far. Their 3pt shot quality has been poor.
