    This made me laugh.

    So, we’re clinging to a rope? Whose rope exactly?

    I imagine it is fairly hard to dribble a basketball while holding a rope.

    This clearly explains why all of our guys look so bad in that area

    I went to a cenote in Mexico a few years ago. You could take your time and climb down the steps into the water, or you could use their giant rope swing thing. I am too old and cowardly for that but this young blond approaches. Lets go too late and falls what must have been 50 or 60 feet right onto her back in the water. The sound was indicative of pain. She gets out and stumbles up not realizing that her bottoms are almost completely off and her entire back and ass is just read beyond belief. She stumbles dazed and crying out of cenote with boyfriend in tow. That is how this season has felt. We let go of the “rope” a long time ago.

    Rockets don’t know how to swim. They’re drowning.

    Silas has been saying some weird stuff. I think he's mixing metaphors. I think he meant to say it's easy to give up. But really, does he even know what he's trying to say? Probably not.

    If the rope is Victor Wembanyama, yes, we must hold fast, or die.
