Bam's acting job on Jokic's 5th foul might fuel their comeback.

Hurry up! You've only got a week before the new episodes!

I'm wondering if Murray and Jokic played a little too many minutes when they got up by 12+ to be fresh for Friday. Denver seemed to defend against the pick and roll better than on Sunday. Denver came out in the 3rd basically playing the same, but I think Miami had some bad shot selection and got a little tight throwing up some shots they didn't need to. Butler faded a little. That happened in game 2, and they came back though. I don't know if this time they got away from the shorter shots and drives or if Denver was a little better on defense. And it was still only a 10 point gap with about 2 minutes to go. I think Denver just made better adjustments.

My parents have been married 50 years. They renew vows by going on cruises and hitting the slots.

What does Lord John do in these books? I might be able to get into a series of Lord John doing Lordy things.

Basically she's a ronin, which was the original idea of what a Jedi was. They're pushing all my buttons.

I have to go to a conference on Saturday, so I'm glad they're spreading out the schedule. Is this 2-2-1-1-1 or 2-3-2?

After the 3rd quarter, I didn't think Miami would be able to come back. Bam was the mvp of this game for sure. I don't know why Denver just didn't play through on the pick and rolls on him. It will be interesting to see if they adjust. I would have called a time out at the end because you need the 3, and you want Murray to take it. If it was only 2, then you have more options.

There's books about Lord John?

I think that's why. It's nothing like any fan would expect. It's shrewd move on her part imo. She's also a producer.

I said before I want it to be last one with the ball wins. I want up and down, good movement, and low whistles.

I've always liked him too. In interviews, he seems affable and doesn't take himself seriously.

I haven't watched the show. I probably should have said 'antiheroes'; that's typically bad people you root for.

In reading the article about the plane crash; that happened - the FBI was there first. Clearly, that's odd. On the show, however, Liddy does bring up an important point. It's easier to arrange for Hunt to have an 'accident' than bring down an entire plane. The whole thing is just so bizarre. The whole aftermath was a huge mess. I only generally know of Watergate from high school. I know this is stretched for drama, but it's still true events. I am surprised that they didn't appeal the sentencings on the Eighth Amendment. 35 years seems a lot for a two bit break in. I don't want to say 'only', but they only bugged the office. There wasn't any classified information they stole or sold state secrets. I don't know if these guys thought they were so self-important that they could break the law with impunity, or actually thought they were being loyal and that would be rewarded. I can't see why Liddy is so staunch on keeping his mouth shut. Especially since Dean flipped. Unless he was just that nuts. I suppose they were trying to show when they were all clapping for him, he wanted to be somewhere people thought he was important. I don't agree with Liddy yelling at Hunt that the whole thing went sideways because of the hush money. They broke in 4 times! Hunt argued against the final break in. Liddy was all in. Like Dot said, all their efforts were effectively useless because Nixon won in a landslide. If this didn't happen irl, and someone wrote it, they'd throw the script in the garbage because it was so preposterous.

I don't want to spoil, but since you already crossed that point - Balefire basically burns your thread back up the pattern, so the stronger it is the further up it goes. There will be more coming for you regarding the history of its use.

It is interesting that 'prestige' seems to equal terrible people as the protagonists of the show for the most part.

Her?

That's what I thought. She's not going to be stilled on the show. I can't wait for you know what with her. I can't wait for balefire either.

WKRP holds up. I watched it a few years ago. On Sunny, the Gang are all terrible, but even they have a grasp of social mores. You wouldn't call them racist. Everyone is cool with Mac. They knew it way before he admitted it.

Same when you hear griping about politics and sports. That's been going on longer than tv.

Oh, for sure. I don't watch a lot of sitcoms, but I'm not sure there's analogous shows now that are issues shows. Maybe Blackish? Even Mary Tyler Moore probably wouldn't have a market.

I don't recall Moirane being stilled on the show. Are you sure you got the right character?

To be fair, the Thirdspace movie had a mega jump gate that opened to another universe. So the premise is canon of a sort.

To be fair, if you watched Kenobi... When you think about the whole thing, the Sith take on their Darth names. Palpatine bestowed Vader before the suit. The Jedi are still the same names. One could point to some mental health issues here. Certainly with Anakin.

I want game 7 to be 143 - 139. I'm not sure I care who wins. I don't think either team deserves to at this point. I do like Butler, but I think I'll be rooting for Denver.
