Well I guess the Raptors are going down 0-2...

It would suck for the Twins to meet the Yankees in the Wild Card game again. I hope Minnesota wins the Central. Cleveland can eat shit for just assuming they would win the division and not even trying to improve their team

Best part of this week's episode was probably Filo's comments re: Spear Hero and his party

So I think the Twins are actually kinda good. That's weird.

Gotta wait another week for the real action...

Got my hopes up and then they couldn't come through in the end Didn't figure they'd get beat by fucking Brook Lopez though... Some big missed shots here in the 4th quarter.

I sure hope you're right Xy. This first half has been fun as hell to watch. Not just 'cause the Raps are up. Just a fun game between two fun teams. The Bucks seem to allow a lot of pretty open shots from 3 though, which you'd think they'd defend more in today's NBA? Great to see some good shooting from Toronto to start the game. If they're open for it and it makes sense to go for it, I want to see Lowry and Gasol taking more of those shots. I think even Norm hit a couple while he was on the court. If they could get more of a contribution from Norm and Fred that'd be huge.

They drafted 1st, 4th, and 4th the last three years IIRC and they're still a last place team. Are they tanking on purpose or just really bad at drafting / player development?

Vlad finally getting some hits, two homer game

Trying to save the New Orleans franchise, I guess. I wonder if they can convince AD to stay with Zion. They could turn into a pretty great team. Or if AD is still out then trade him for a good package potentially including the Knicks' or Lakers' pick + other interesting young players to build around Zion. --- Back to playoff talk: I didn't realize the Western Finals started last night Wish I would have tuned in. I'm thinking this series is probably Warriors in 5, maybe 6 games. Cheering for Portland though. As for Raptors @ Bucks: Milwaukee has built a really good team around Giannis. They're deeper. It's going to be tough. Probably Bucks in 6 But if the Bucks' supporting cast under performs and the Raptors secondary guys shoot well, and then it comes down to which superstar has the more impactful performance between Kawhi or Giannis then I can see the Raps winning. Odds seem to be against them though.

I picked up Cytus ? today. Only played it a bit but it looks like their are a tonne of songs, so there should be some good stuff in there. I'm pleased to see there's a DJMax section (I wish we could get DJMax Respect on Switch...)

I think this was the first time the Beast Titan's name was mentioned in the anime. It happened similarly in the manga IIRC. Just a random name drop and then they moved along. But we will eventually see Zeke's background story, which is very interesting. Not sure if it will fit into this season though. Love that killer instinct from Mikasa I still don't but Bert being able to hang with her, but I suppose they did do a lot of training to become warriors...

Almost feels like that game last night was a dream. It happened Great defense from the Raptors, Kawhi was obviously amazing, Lowry and VanVleet played with really good energy, and Serge really stepped up. He hit some huge shots. This team still has been missing a lot of shots though, which is concerning.

I figured this was another Marvel fighting game... I guess I've never heard of this series before. Looks like some mindless 3D beat 'em up fun. I'd but it if/when the price is right.

Yeah, right now it's looking like Carolina's run is over. But I will hold out just a bit of hope that they can come back for a miracle game 7 win. Get Boston out of here!

Wow ???

Watching this 4th quarter is too stressful

I'm cheering for St Louis and Carolina, so naturally they are both losing. I really want Carolina to beat Boston because I don't trust either San Jose or St Louis to stop Boston from winning another Cup Probably not happening though.

That shouldn't be surprising. They're still pretty much a super-team even if they're short one of their starters. However we have seen the other guys underperform already in the playoffs, while Durant has been a top player throughout. KD carried them through a couple games where it seemed like they were getting next to nothing from Klay and Curry. The Splash Bros have had some pretty bad shooting games by their standards. But they probably don't have to worry that much missing KD if those guys return to form.

It was one good game. Have you seen how KD has played throughout these playoffs compared to Curry?

Really wish we weren't going to game 7, but at least they're playing it in Toronto.

Huh, just looking at game recaps now. I wonder if KD is going to miss the next game with the calf strain?

Good to see the Celtics out. Another bad shooting performance from Kyrie. Don't think he's going back to Boston

My fun Wild Card playoff dreams aren't coming true I have always liked the Blues though, so I don't mind that they advanced

Pretty suspenseful episode ending
