They 100% should get rid of it. (Honestly, it’s probably not the best thing for the players in other US sports either, but it’s too ingrained right now)
Pacers and Bucks being the only two who improve quarter by quarter is interesting. Not sure if it signals much but I would have thought there would be more than two teams who happen to be like that
I save the butcher paper that comes in a lot of the packages I order, and use that + twine to wrap things. It can look cute and old school and saves a bunch on buying wrapping paper (I also try and buy that on massive clearance after Christmas, and if I can get more generic or even just winter themed paper I’ll angle for that to use for birthday gifts later in the year)
The premade soylents are pretty good, and I regularly have them with a protein bar as my lunch. They’re pretty expensive in my opinion, so I try and look for them on sale, but the ease of not having to prep lunch is often worth it. I try and keep it under $2 a bottle for the 14oz ones, which still feels expensive to me, but some of the lunches I prep are around that cost, and it’s way cheaper than going out to eat (I keep a spare one at work in case I ever forget to bring lunch)
God, the Pacers look so happy running out there. The Wizards don’t seem like they’re trying, so it’s hard to judge how good they are, but the vibes seem immaculate
I don’t know that I’ll be up late enough eastern time to watch, but I might have to hit this game up on league pass, as I want to see how the new Blazers team is gelling
My expertise is the Pacers, and I would take the over. Wizards had 35 wins last year, and I think the pacers team as constructed is better than that wizards team, and will be actually trying this year. I would put them in the 38-39 win range, so it’s a soft over, but I think they’ll hit it.
