Buckets&Budgets

@TA1297 And haven't had played more than I think 3 games all season with the actual rotation

They’ve been absurdly dominant too. 66 win pace and +10 net rating is a Louis Vuitton belt 2 ass

@NoDunksInc He dominated the entire game against the Celtics Saturday night. Was the best single game I've ever seen him play

Ja Morant has put the Grizzlies first

@RafaelFerrei90 @C2_Cooper I was there Saturday and Jrue was wide open. They were definitely taking an extra step or two off him and just trying to close out as best they could

@C2_Cooper I don't know if is the same or not, but i think Memphis did something similar against the Celtics, guarding Jrue Holiday.

Here's evidence of the Mazzulla coaching tree: Charles Lee had Nick Richards guarding TJM, just like Kornet, Porzingis, etc. On the one hand, the hide-a-big strategy was no match for TJ-ball. On the other hand, the hide-a-big strategy meant that the offense was mainly TJ-ball.

@MarkraftusMark @SopanDeb @AdamTaylorNBA Saying the players aren't as athletic is one of the single dumbest comments I've ever seen

@SopanDeb @AdamTaylorNBA Be honest that the current game is horrible. Played between three point lines with little post play and even less defence. Watching some film of how the game used to be played. A lot more fun to watch. Terrible today and the players aren’t as athletic or tough either

@HHH_Report @scottlincicome Approved of so much he lost the election the next year?

@scottlincicome To you it’s a “charade” because you don’t give a shit about illegal immigration, but tariff threats towards Mexico/Central America in 2019 were crucial in ending that year’s border crisis. A tangible result that most Americans clearly approved of

Enjoy your fruit & vegetable tax, everyone.

@Handsome_Jake_ Ever. It's not even close to fair

The Celtics are the best team ever with KP

@Levine1445 Neither player would crack the Celtics rotation. Jordan would be behind Porzingis, Horford, Kornet, Tillman AND Neemias Quetta. Celts have the 2nd best record in the league despite KP missing every game. Big man depth is not a problem Jordan helps at all

@rgoldson @RampCapitalLLC Seriously WTF was that

Can I say something without everyone getting upset? As entertaining as it is to poke fun at those claiming they’re ‘leaving’ X (let’s be honest, they rarely do), it’s essential to remember that diverse voices are what keep this platform vibrant and capable of becoming a true public square. When we limit perspectives, we risk turning X into just another echo chamber—isolated, fragmented, and detached from reality and ultimately the truth. We’ve already seen this happen on other platforms like T*reads, Bl*esky, and Truth Social, where the communities were effectively built off of X defectors. Whether you like it or not, they have all become ideologically siloed and conversations feel like a cycle of mutual affirmation rather than genuine debate. Much of the content there centers on screenshotting X posts, as users pile on to reinforce their own views—hardly a recipe for healthy discourse. X has a unique opportunity to foster real dialogue, with varied perspectives that reflect a broader reality. If we genuinely want a public square, we should embrace the challenge of having open, thoughtful discussions. Imagine a platform where we’re all engaging—not just performing—for the good of public understanding. Until next time…

@girdley @jbilyeudesign Especially since that chart indicates the largest group is local government not Federal. Looks like all the small government enthusiasts will be talking about firing their friends and family in their local communities, not a bunch of DC elites

@jbilyeudesign I think it'll be a ton of drama->attention for all the narcissists involved. But end up a big nothing.

21 million US voters make their living working for the government.

@villainpolitix @DragonflyJonez I'll be fine personally. Which is why I'm indifferent to which party is in power. I'm not someone that voted against my own self interest like I think you assume

@BucketsBudgets @DragonflyJonez I need you to understand that having said all that, Trump WILL BE WORST. Make no fucking mistake. Don't think for a second that Trump will make things easier for you.

Ppl view white as the default. Even nonwhite ppl do. So a white politician targeting white voters isn't identity politics to them. It's just politics. It's only identity politics to them when nonwhite voters are the ones being appealed to.

@St3v0_24 @DragonflyJonez Here's the thing. When you say that, the people that don't feel that way but vote for Trump feel further emboldened by being lectured to by someone like you. I didn't vote for him and wouldn't in a million years, but you're part of the problem if u reduce it down to racism

@BucketsBudgets @DragonflyJonez People are looking to deep into this when it's a pretty simple answer.

@villainpolitix @DragonflyJonez Kamala was a terrible candidate, which is incredible considering being under the age of 60 should've been enough for most voters after the past 8 years. But no. She was handed the nomination & fumbled the election bc she couldn't speak positively to anything from the last 4 years

@villainpolitix @DragonflyJonez You're the one that needs a reality check if you don't think Trump winning the popular vote is anything but a complete rebuke of the last 4 years. Dems had 4 years & literally all they had to do was 'not fuck up'. Not only did they not accomplish that, they got smashed.

@St3v0_24 @DragonflyJonez Ok

@BucketsBudgets @DragonflyJonez Dude had 0.0 actual policies and was pushing hate daily and people were ok with that. Had nothing to do with any policy whatsoever because dude had no policies.

@villainpolitix @DragonflyJonez I'm a moderate that thinks both political parties are absolute garbage. I said nothing about a socialist revolution. Whatever you think happened, the Dems got their asses handed to them last week and it's because they pissed off everyone in the middle.

@BucketsBudgets @DragonflyJonez you are delusional if you think biden ushered in some kind of socialist revolution. what are you on? what the hell did he do for lefties? lol

@St3v0_24 @DragonflyJonez Fair, but I'd imagine those Latino voters are voting on immigration just as much as young white males. Trump's nationalism isn't constrained to old white people any more is my point. Dems blew it with immigration and that's the biggest reason he won again IMO

@BucketsBudgets @DragonflyJonez Those Latino voters you’re talking about buy into that white male bullshit because a large portion of them function as if they are white. Black voters voted as they typically do and in spite of what the media is trying to sell the numbers were pretty much the exact same.

@Handsome_Jake_ Holy smokes what?! I'm a moderate that thinks Donald Trump is a flaming bag of shit. Thinking that Tuesday was anything but a complete rebuke of left/progressive ideology across the country is insane. People didn't show up to vote Dem bc the majority of the country is against it

Idiot blue checks can argue all they want. The Democrat rightward pivot failed. They need to stick to a progressive identity for both moral reasons and electoral reasons

He got 6 million votes in 2020 and this time is at 4.5 with about a quarter left to go Once again, it’s a democrats showing up issue not a conservative wave

@darioperkins Also true for those of us in the country that don't watch the news

The good thing about covering the US from outside the US is that you can have views that don't fit the domestic debate, like: the economy was pretty good over the past 18 months, and will probably still be good in 18 months time 🤣 x.com/_SofiaBaig_/st…

@stevehouf An absolute slaughter

Well the theory that “Trump was picking up moderate voters in deep blue states and bleeding moderate voters in deep red states” is rejected.
