Jeff van Gundy is famous for calling out the refs on bad calls. He's just fellating LeBron weirdly tonight.

tatum's too eager to pass and not skilled enough at court-vision/passing to do it. when he touches it he needs to be more relentless.

Do I not understand basketball anymore or can you literally smack someone's hand and it's a clean block now?

It's not. The refs missed it, but it was close.

What's indefensible is JVG/Mark Jackson continuing to ejaculate all over it after that.

I don't think I could, honestly.

But yeah, a terrifying number of those have been nice looks - the Boston crowd is helping a ton vs role player shots.

I dont get why they stopped going through Durant

usually, it's because the defense has adjusted, or the player isn't feeling it, i think

anyway, third quarter warriors in effect - they just seem to be getting luckier, and the crowd is helping a ton right now!

2011 celtics and 2011 bulls are probably the two best, with 2013 pacers third? depends on your opinion on the raps and hawks that won 59-60 games, ormaybe the 2012 celtics if you think finals experience counts extra in the playoffs

I mean I don't know that LeBron's career can ever be as "perfect" as Jordan or Russell's, but in an elimination game, there's no player that gives you a better chance of winning, I think.

Baccano!'s pacing is really something. It's incredibly inaccessible for like two episodes and then it just starts building a fantastic sense of momentum throughout the rest of the series. Love its OP too.

I am bitter, partially because I don't like a lot about the way LeBron has conducted himself, but partially because I'm sick of the pity party for LJ based on his teammates and/or coach and/or front office - he's had unprecedented power in the decisions of all three. We don't cut Doc Rivers the coach any slack for the decisions of Doc the GM, so I don't see why we should cut James any.

Realistically as a Celtics fan, the expected value of the rings we could've gotten in 2011 and 2012 adds up to less than 1 - 2011 Bulls/Mavs would probably have been favored and 2012 Thunder for sure.
---

lebron doesn't have loyalty. he chose the cavs so he could play GM. so the competent front office thing isn't really a fair thing to use - he put hinself here by lobbying for TT and smith's extensions and alienating kyrie.
---

yet all sailors of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness

the score was close because lebron was toying with them. when you don't prove yourself capable of getting stops, cutting it to 7 doesn't count.

similarly houston's 4 point lead in the 4q felt like 20 last night, lol

CP3's fragile body is going to cost the Rockets this series, and to be honest I'm okay with excluding him from the hall of fame over it because I'm so pissed off at how fragile he is.

Episodes 54-55

Recap: Chrollo shows off his new fortune-telling technique, and Hisoka manipulates his own to convince the Troupe to stay around and exterminate Kurapika. Kurapika meets back up with G/K/L, makes peace with himself, and finally invites them into his plan to capture the mind-reading cleavage woman.

Here are two slower-paced, calmer episodes. One of my favorite parts of this is Gon and Killua's sheer joy as they have an eating contest, Gon accidentally spits in Killua's face while talking, and then Killua puts a pie in Gon's face. It's an incredibly dark world with some real monsters, but our protagonist is twelve years old - so why not reap the emotional rewards of that?

But I'm also really happy with Gon's effect on Kurapika. Alone, Kurapika's clenched butthole is his defining characteristic. But the moment he lays eyes on Gon, his jaws loosens, his eyes soften, and he's opening up again. With Kurapika facing an existential crisis, Gon immediately reminds Kurapika that he has another mission - one that heals and redeems, rather than drenches you in blood. We eventually wind up finding out about the false intel again, of course, but Kurapika's cleansing has already been established. Now that he's seeing his friends in person again, he's entirely unable to resist letting them into the fold.

We'd heard a little bit about Meteor City before, and I'm embarrassed to admit I forget in what context. Anyway, that is fleshed out a bit - the Spiders come from there, and the Mafia actually has a relationship with their people. The silent cold open with Chrollo's childhood fading into sunrise - fantastic directing.

Part of the reason for this double-feature's slowness is again the same reason ASOIAF can be slow at times - informational asymmetry. I'm certainly let down that there's no Hisoka/Nobunaga showdown as teased, but it's clever how Hisoka manages to turn the tide of public opinion by using his Bungee Gum technique. Though now that I think about it, wouldn't using Gyo reveal this deception? Or would each prophecy already have Nen on it from the fortune-telling technique itself? No matter the case, Chrollo falls right into Hisoka's trap, and I'm sad that Hisoka's going to kill him (and Hisoka will kill him - he's the only one on Chrollo's level, and this alliance with Kurapika will make no sense if Hisoka doesn't get his wish).

Finally, Killua is hilarious in the way he butts heads with Kurapika. Love how he first wants to kill the surviving Troupe; then when he discovers that they're still whole, wants to back out. Guy is pragmatic and his quiet hoping is hilarious. Need lots more of that.

* I'm now all-in on the OP. Sometimes they just need to grind you down. It helps that it had so many episodes - FMA03's OP3 is such a letdown relative to OP2 that I never got into it, but perhaps its biggest sign is appearing in only 13 episodes so that I'm not forced to like it.
