@GovofCO Screw you. I wanted to build my own small home but the regs and fees were so crazy I had to forget it. Now, I'm planning to move to another state. Freaking state sucks.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani just made history. New York’s first-ever pied-à-terre tax — an annual fee on luxury properties worth $5M+ owned by people who don’t even live here. Ken Griffin bought a $238M penthouse in NYC. He doesn’t live here. It sits empty. While working New Yorkers can’t afford rent. That changes today. $500M annually — straight to childcare, clean streets, and safer neighborhoods. This is what governing for people looks like.

We are in a cost-of-living emergency. Surging gas prices, increasing grocery bills, and astronomically high health care costs. You’re paying for Donald Trump’s broken promises.

“One of the great offensive seasons and somehow didn’t win the MVP and I can’t believe it.” @BillSimmons explains why he voted SGA for MVP over Nikola Jokic despite Jokic having one of the greatest offensive seasons ever.

@KevinOConnor Your picks are bullshit. Jokic is breaking records at a speed of light pace and you put him 3rd. You are a joke.

With Victor Wembanyama on the floor, the Spurs generate far more layups for their point guard trio — a trio I spent all summer convinced wasn’t an ideal fit. De'Aaron Fox, Stephon Castle, and Dylan Harper are three downhill guards and none of them is a proven knockdown shooter. On paper the spacing math didn’t work. Mitch Johnson solved it by playing only one or two of them together at once. And Wemby handled the rest. Harper’s at-rim frequency jumps 15.5% with Wemby on the floor. Castle, 14.2%; Fox, 9.7%. More shots at the rim is one piece. More shots going in at a higher rate is the other. Every rotation player sees a jump, not just the guards. Devin Vassell’s true shooting climbs from 55.2% to 60.8%. Harrison Barnes from 58% to 64.7%. Julian Champagnie from 58.4% to 63.3%. Fox is the exception — his true shooting stays the same. Some of this increase is thanks to transition offense off stops. Most of it is Wemby’s gravity in the half-court. Gravity comes in different flavors. The first is simple spacing: his shooting pulls a big out of the paint and the guards drive into an empty lane. The more interesting one is what happens when he rolls. When off-ball defenders decide to stay home on shooters, the big man still needs to prevent a lob to Wemby, which means Fox, Castle and Harper can go one-on-one with a full head of steam and walk into layups. Of the nearly 400 handler/screener duos to log at least 100 pick-and-rolls this season, Fox/Wemby, Castle/Wemby and Harper/Wemby all rank in the 88th percentile or better in scoring efficiency. None of this shows up on his line. Wemby finishes those possessions with zero points and zero assists and jogs back down the floor, and the box score insists nothing happened. Something happened.

My 2026 NBA MVP ballot: 1. Victor Wembanyama 2. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander 3. Nikola Jokic I spent most of the season assuming I'd vote SGA. Then I looked closer. New column on @YahooSports: sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/th…

Charlie Villanueva says the NBA is going to give Victor Wembanyama the MVP because it’s best for business: “The league is a business. You know what, y’all want to grow the league, y’all want to get better? We’ve giving it to Jokic so many times, we just gave it to SGA. We want to grow the league as a whole? We going to sit in a meeting and say who should get the MVP? They all going to make the case, but we want to grow as a league. Popularity Wemby, Jersey sales Wemby, LeBron is going out the league who’s going to be the new face of the league? Wemby. So, let’s push this narrative of giving the MVP to Wemby because the league is going to grow. Let’s give it to Wemby. I’m telling you I’m a fu*king business man.” (Via @ToTheBaha)
