  • We think the old sports towns like Cleveland, Philly, Pittsburgh, Detroit, New York, etc. are where the “hard” fans are…

    … but California is the only place where fans are consistently getting maimed and killed before and after games.

    I mean, it’s still really rare, but it’s always some Angles fan getting shanked at a Dodgers game or something.

    I wonder why that is. Are they unable to talk shit in a fun way without escalating?















  • The great point guards like Kidd and Nash have a quality that’s hard to quantify, but they are just able to control the entire game somehow.

    I never saw Garland as being on that type of path. He was built in a lab to have the perfect skillset to be an NBA point guard in the 2020’s and he has that perfect skillset.

    Garland would have grown up playing mostly AAU ball where everyone is just showcasing, then he didn’t really play in college.

    So I don’t know how or where he would have actually learned how to run a team and control a game in the classic sense. He’s going to have to learn that as an NBA player.

    But again, his skillset is amazing and he’s already a very good point guard. He also seems to be noticeably more athletic and stronger this year.
