Big Rick Holiday

@DieterRuehle Dieter you rule congrats and thanks for all the clever tunes this year

One last time for 2024, I LOVE LA! What a fun ending to a thrilling season! Thank you fans for all the love and support of your team. As I learned in 2020 with cardboard cutouts, it wouldn’t be the same without your passion and energy. You guys rock! #LetsGoDodgers

@C2_Cooper Hey @C2_Cooper pretty cool how things can change in just a few years!!! Keep killing it!!! Us Pacers fans are so lucky to have you.

@rickyxmas Nope. Can't imagine I would be high on his potential guest list.

Big surprise tomorrow 👀👀👀👀👀 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

@C2_Cooper I love your analysis, and you always do a great job of explaining the detailed basketball reasons behind what happened. I can’t shake the takeaway that the Pacers were just mentally weak tonight. I know that sounds like oversimplified shock jock talk, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A depleted Knicks team scored 130 points. That’s the story. Full stop.

@jackfrank_jjf South Philly Barbacoa is goated

If someone wanted to find great tacos in Philadelphia, where might they hypothetically go

@CaucasianJames @Bucks James do you hoop at Rio?!?

i’m ready @Bucks

@HPbasketball The 3P shooting for the entire roster was pretty wild this year (Jalen Smith?!)

Obi Toppin shot 40% from 3?!

4-way tie between NYK+ ORL + CLE + IND = ORL 3rd (presuming they go 2-1 and win the division), IND 4th (won series against both CLE and NYK). If there's a 3-way tie between NYK + CLE + IND then IND gets 3rd or 4th (depend on ORL) as they beat both CLE+NYK head-to-head.

If ORL goes 2-1 + CLE goes 2-1 + IND goes 2-0? ORL would be the division winner, so they stay 4th. But what about the Knicks! They're currently up 2 games in the loss column on IND, but IND has the tiebreaker. If NYK goes 1-2 and IND goes 2-0, IND wins tiebreaker.

@DanFeldmanNBA @NateDuncanNBA Isn’t Haliburton already eligible since the IST championship counts towards the 65 for award purposes?

Who actually meets the NBA's new Award Eligibility Criteria? I made a spreadsheet to track: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… By my count, there are: 82 players eligible 448 ineligible* 38 to be determined* *Including some who'd get my votes!

Meanwhile, the Pacers are now up 2.5 games (2 in the loss column, 3 in the win column) on the Sixers, who are currently in 8th. The Pacers also own the tiebreaker, which makes it very unlikely that the Sixers could pass them outright at this point with 7-8 games remaining.

The Pacers (6th) are currently tied with the Heat (7th) in the loss column, but have two more wins. The April 7th game is basically worth 2 games because it also decides the head-to-head tiebreaker between the two.
