I talk about 15+ game scores a lot (new analytics - basketball Reference) -

even with Thibs keeping the Randle minutes at 27, Julius goes for his 8th 15+ game in ten.

Game log for Randle:

Did Thibs keep Julius numbers down again?

Funny.

I would of course yap about them voting no on sick leave, but they were mostly behaving as expected.  I wanted more from Biden, who promised to deliver for working people.  Sometimes he needs to be more adversarial and not just have some people superficially holding hands.  The railroads certainly would not want supply chain collapses around Christmas and possibly losing huge chunks to trucking and shipping...they would have come to the table on sick leave if they had to.

GOP did not want to take a hit on the strike but said no in the time off and somehow that is on Biden?

I guess Obama did not pass on his Green Lantern Ring of Power to Biden so he could just make legislation through sheer will.

Just saying Biden shouldn't applaud this deal.  He should send it back unsigned, ask legislators to come up with something better, and point out the barbarity of zero days sick leave in no uncertain terms.  I'm not saying that the sick leave debacle isn't on Manchin and GOP callousness.  Biden needs to point that out.

Over 20 per cent of Americans get no sick leave. And most of them are paid far less than railroad workers.
The demand for seven was outrageous given the raises and payouts negotiated by Biden.

"....negotiated by Biden"

Yeah - funny.

Republican leader Haffley:  "You will be responsible for shutting the government down..."

President Bartlett:  "Then shut it down"

Joe gotta stomp when stompin's right.   Oilcan is correct in this cse

Good effort.  No closer.

RJ Barrett - with his late foul - just cost Knicks bettors tens of thousands of dollars.....

When you have a whole bunch of guys who ain't hitting their shots, or getting the right ones, in a shocking three-point drought, from long timers like Fournier to youngsters like RJ or Obi, you have to at least glance in that direction as well as the players themselves and the coach.


Fournier?  Who's that?

Are you telling me you have liked the drive, draw and dish game of Brunson?  I havent seen it.  And this is what you all wanted.

Me?  I am fine with a scoring point - always have been.  Optimistic.  But he has to make big shots and will his mates some.

Nice job by Thibs tonight tightening rotation.

Sure, if we're playing Detroit every game, a tight rotation works well.

With everyone else?

Not so well.

Well no - he tightened it because we lost the big lead.  It was a horror.  You cant tell in the finals stats since starters were taken out so early.  Shame - Julius could have had 50.  Bernard gets the benefit of having played in close games when he got his 50/50.

So, let us get this straight.
Biden okays Chevron extracting  oil in Venezuela( a vicious human rights suppressor ) in order to increase the world supply of fossil fuels.( with the goal lowering gasoline prices in the USA)
But he will not let Americans do the same and raise wages and improve the economy?
Stupid.

Out of sight, he can still claim to be green in America...and have gasoline prices drop in America.
Not stoopid idea if he wants to run in 2024 and be elected President...voters hate high gasoline prices.

Say goodnight, Gracie.

Writing is on the wall.  Joe will be re-elected and the US will become an even greater laughingstock.

Oh - forgot one thing - first Yankguy will predict that Joe will lose.
