Amazing that a team in July that had Jeffery Royal and White has had to start Wilson and Bellamy so often. Really tiring the injuries this year.

Nice article.

2015-2016 NBA Thread
You are insane. A poor shooting team with a great center would be better vs. a 3 point shooting team? Vs. an unbelievable perimeter guarding team, that could slow the game down and play iso ball with multiple players (the exact type of play that allowed a not very good team to take them to 6?). Its not a question.

Terrorist attack in Paris
Apparently hotel was hosting a diplomatic conference, CNN hinted it was about Mali's continued fight vs. extremists.

Terrorist attack in Paris
So, when I said best possible scenario I had seen a tv that said 3 dead, now it's at 21. A lot worse than I thought previously. "The assault began about 7 a.m., when two or three attackers with AK-47 rifles exited at least one vehicle with diplomatic plates and entered the hotel with guns firing, Salgado said." http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/20/africa/mali-shooting/

So, remember how lebron by himself took Golden State to 6 games by slowing the game down to a crawl and playing physical defense...and the warriors would crush the bulls. God, sorry for bringing it up. I was talking about entertainment value, not J4L's WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER AND HAPPENS FOREVER AND NEVER CHANGES AND THE PAST IS STUPID AND THE FUTURE WILL NOT CHANGE NOW IS THE BEST posts.

Terrorist attack in Paris
Have not really been able to follow this Mali hotel terrorism, but it looks like the best possible outcome considering the numbers that were held hostage initially.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 20, 2015 -> 08:51 AM) I know Texas is going to take a "run" at Saban, but its Tom Herman's spot IMO. Saban's dirty laundry would be on full view if he left the good ol boys network in AL. Yeah, UT doesn't have that atmosphere at all.

I remember in the 90s thinking it was kinda weird how big a deal it was for other fans to watch and see the bulls play. I feel like the warriors are at that level of interest now, where everyone is watching their game and knows when they come to town.

Kershaw wants Puig off the Dodgers?
Yeah, to be honest I'm not exactly sure what a package for Puig would be at this point. I don't think Q should be required considering the year and willingness to sell. Going to guess the Dodgers would want pitching, however. I would do a deal surrounding Spencer Adams but not sure that is attractive at all to Dodgers.

White sox open to trading Avisail Garcia
QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 12:39 PM) Trayce is much more valuable though because he's a similar hitter and plays way better defense. Also was a great baserunner.

2015 TV Thread
QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Nov 18, 2015 -> 01:00 PM) So Nice Pizzalatto has signed a huge deal with HBO, that includes some other shows (I think one of them is a bull riding drama) and a potential third season of True Detective. But because of the larger workload, HBO has given him three options on True Detective's third season. 1) Hire another showrunner. 2) Hire a staff of writers. 3) Continue to do everything on his own. A lot of people are saying that this is because of the lukewarm reception of Season 2, but remember this is HBO/WB and they're extremely artist friendly and all of the showrunners at HBO have complete creative control. Plus the second season was still a ratings monster. I really hope that he continues to do everything himself on True Detective, because if he's not the sole voice, it's not True Detective. The same way that David Simon, David Milch and David Chase were the sole voices of The Wire, Deadwood and The Sorpranos. What do you guys want to see from True Detective's third season? 8 hours of dark mopey dialogue asking why the world left them behind.

Neil Walker on the Block
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 11:13 AM) It depends on our strategy. But if we plan on sticking with Trayce as an everyday outfielder and doing a youth movement, we shouldn't have any interest in Walker. It also should mean that we move some of our more attractive assets to add to the youth movement. That said, I don't know which direction we are going right now, but using prospects on someone like Walker just doesn't make a lot of sense. Does trayce signal youth movement or d movement? I think the latter.

IF you were going to go after 2b (cannot answer 'keep sanchez/internal candidate): Would you rather trade for Walker or sign Kendrick?

2015-2016 NBA Thread
Hinrich actually pushed us up the court better than any other point guard, Brooks does this but then gets to the 3pt line and doesn't know what to do. The offense could be there. Woulda been sweet to get Ty Lawson as a backup PG like the rockets have.

White sox open to trading Avisail Garcia
QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Nov 19, 2015 -> 10:10 AM) In what world are they poor talent evaluators? Was it when they gave Abreu the largest contract in team history? Or when they traded for Eaton? Or when they drafted Sale? Or when they pulled Quintana off the scrap heap? Or do you want to go back further in KW's tenure like when he acquire Contreras for a broken down Loaiza? Or when he acquired Thornton for Borchard? I mean, probably when they finished in the bottom ten of the league 3 years in a row.
