@migurski @notjustbikes @fuckcars it's what men do!
@hallenbeck @coys @spurs I wondered if you had seen this one. A delightful deconstruction of Son's prowess this season.
@hallenbeck @coys @spurs Vicario has been a legit discovery this season. I'll always have a soft spot for Lloris, but it was evident he had been slipping. Vicario's reaction time and acrobaticism (new word!) have been stunning.
@hallenbeck @CoolerPseudonym @coys @spurs Again, thinking back to the Golden State Warriors...
Most of the time, they play fast, pace-and-space, motion basketball.
But occasionally, it doesn't work.
And the goal is to win.
And no one is better at winning than Draymond Green. And so, when needed, he'll muck it up, get physical, get obnoxious, trying to get in the heads of the other players and the refs.

The best teams have more than one mode.
@hallenbeck @coys @spurs Sure. But I'm not buying it. Bundesliga doesn't sharpen their steel enough.
@hallenbeck @coys @spurs I feel like I'm losing my mind with the commentary on Bayern. It's not interesting that they dominate Bundesliga, and the Bundesliga is not as competitive as La Liga or Serie A (or the Premier League). Moving to Bayern means he'll win his first trophy (which the team would win without him anyway) but I suspect places him in international irrelevance.
I'll probably regret this post.
@migurski @derpoltergeist @notjustbikes @fuckcars his SPACESUIT: FASHIONING APOLLO is excellent.
I'm bummed he left Berkeley to work at MIT.
