I grew up hearing lake freighters on the St. Mary's River near the Soo Locks in Michigan, exchanging toots with passing ships. This captivating image depicts a freighter navigating through thick fog at sunrise, evoking tranquility & curiosity. Perfect for nautical enthusiasts or lovers of misty mornings.

gocu54,

So, you know you have a good day when both teams you support end up winning their respective games. That's what happened a few minutes ago when my #lakers won by 3 against the #Clippers and my #Rams beat the #Niners. It's a great way to end a day.

To their credit, the #Lakers brought their best effort in the first quarter. But after the first, the #Nuggets are only down four, and Joker already has a double-double. #NBA @nba

How can Lakers management think a podcaster who has never had an assistant or head coaching position at the high school, college or NBA level, is a leading candidate for one of the most storied franchises in hoops history?

And he's openly made a big deal about not taking Asst coaching jobs anywhere choosing instead to coach his son's 6th grade club basketball team?

@kurtsh well, he looks nice in a suit, and I guess they're having a hard time finding other volunteers to be LeBron's scapegoat after next season turns out a lot like this one. An arrogant, inexperienced guy LeBron can push around seems perfect.

(note that I love on court LeBron. His increasingly weird manner of running the team keeps getting weirder though)

Jamal Murray is determined to make the most of his minutes. #Nuggets 6, #Lakers 3, first quarter. Murray with all six. #NBA @nba

The #Nuggets pull off the successful two-for-one at the end of the first half: Two free throws for Murray, an AD miss for the #Lakers, and a Gordon tip-in with 0.8 seconds left. #Denver cuts the deficit to 53-49 at the half.

Gordon has 14 points and nine rebounds. Joker and Murray have 11 points each. #NBA @nba

Just a note for my #Nuggets:

It’s fun when we dramatically come from behind, but we don’t really have to fall behind by double digits in every game with the #Lakers.

Thanks. #NBA @nba

Aaron Gordon just got a shot, rebounded his own miss and scored against four #Lakers in the paint. Gordon’s bullied his way to 12 points and seven boards so far. #Nuggets down seven, second quarter. #NBA @nba

The #Nuggets start the third with a 9-2 run, including two free throws and a three by Porter Jr. Timeout by the #Lakers. #Denver up three. #NBA @nba

When do we start the 10-second clock on AD free throws? #Nuggets #Lakers #NBA @nba

Jamal Murray’s looking for his shot, but he’s forcing it. His shot’s also flat; needs more arch. He’ll find it. #Lakers up six, midway through the first quarter. #Nuggets #NBA @nba

The have done a great job on defense, but the are one Murray Flurry from being in this game. If Jamal can just get one of those threes to fall to open the basket for him . . . Lakers 79, Nuggets 69, end of the third. @nba

Joker and Peyton Watson scored 19 of the #Nuggets’ 25 first-quarter points. No other Nugget has more than two. #Lakers up eight. #NBA @nba

The go up, 8-0, but at least we have Hubie Brown on the call. @nba

LeBron nails a long three to give the a three-point halftime lead, but the came back a 12-point deficit midway through the second quarter. Joker has 15 points and Porter Jr. has 11; meanwhile, LeBron and AD combined for 37. @nba

Murray from the corner. Starting to heat up. Game tied at 67, #Lakers timeout. #Nuggets #NBA @nba

@cwgrody@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

So it’s the #Lakers against the #Nuggets in the first round. We’ve got to beat four good teams to repeat; might as well start against an all-time great like Lebron. #NBA @nba

DeAndre Jordan with the steal, Christian Braun with the drive through two for the layup. stretches the lead to 15 with Joker resting. About 10 minutes left. @nba

LeBron is the either #1 or #2 in terms of greatest bball players ever.

He's also the biggest cry baby in-game I've ever seen. The number of times tonight that he held his hands up looking at the refs, looking for a foul, is shameful. Add in that apparently he forgets that travelling is against the rules. Refs seem to forget that too.

#Lakers back within eight. Timeout #Nuggets. About seven minutes to go. #NBA @nba

Maybe the crowd can count down the seconds on the shot clock? @nba
