You won't believe me but the huge aquarium in Atlanta has a new shark exhibit and they are offering these controlled cage dives with the sharks.

A bit spendy but I'd rather test a controlled environment first before the ocean. I've seen 47 meters down!
That's way cool

It's about $240 per person plus aquarium admission.
Kind of about what I expected. I would think it would be about 400 dollars or something in the ocean. Though I'm sure prices vary by location and maybe even shark species.

That's cool that there an aquarium that let's you do it.

Yeah after I posted it I was like, that's actually kind of cheap for what you get to do.

Another cool thing is that you don't have to be dive certified.
 
I said run their 3 pt shooter off the line into Rudy.
Won’t be able to stop them all and if they have 5 out with good shooters it gets tough.

I just think it’s gonna be a long series... we’ve got a shot but I’m not sure I’d consider us the favorite... especially if Mike isn’t back. Really wish we would have signed Rivers or found another competent vet because Forrest and Oni aren’t ready and we gonna need some minutes from that spot.
 
Excuse yourself to the bathroom and watch the entire game on your phone.

Or better yet, tell them to shut the **** up and watch the game or you might be burying bodies in the garden tomorrow. Say that part with a big grin and a chuckle, comes across better that way.

I think I’m going to have to go with option two. It sounds most enjoyable

Rivera would’ve been real nice.
 
It’s a good sign when the opposing team is talking adjustments to us. We’ll play our game and dare them to beat us.

Good luck LA. Hope those personnel adjustment are practiced and tight enough to beat the basketball the Jazz have played all year.

I think one thing that's being overlooked with the fear of the Clippers smallball lineup is that small ball is really tough to play for prolonged stretches. It's physically draining.

Even the Curry Warriors and Harden Rockets didn't play small ball very often unless they really needed to, despite it being by far their best lineup.

They're already coming off a 7 game series featuring heavy small ball, including almost exclusively small ball for Games 6 and 7. Last year, Kawhi wore down as the Nuggets/Clippers series went on.

This is a series that, as long as we can avoid a 2-0 or 3-1 hole, we should have a major advantage the longer it goes.
 
Y’all are irrationally confident. We dealing with a finals mvp with a ton of talent... we also have a key injury... I’m all for optimism but some of y’all gonna be disappointed.
 
Joe has to play with confidence and be more aggressive in this series, especially if Mike misses some games. He can't be timid and passive and just defer to JC/Donovan every single time down the court.

I would keep Oni and Forrest off the court.
Play Donovan, jingles, and Clarkson a few more minutes each.

This series is too hard and important to risk those two or any of our scrubs touching the court.

I heard very similar talk after we were down 1-0 last round fwiw.
