"I just won a championship. You'd think it was pretty easy." At Y! Sports: Wrote about Karl-Anthony Towns' ongoing frustration over contract extension talks in New York, and why "it don't look good" for him to get a deal done before the season starts: yhoo.it/4hGkGdn

I might be in trouble. I'm 40 and divorced, which means I'm also 40 and single. I had, at least, four arrangements with women from my teens, that if we were both single at 40, we'd marry. ... What a marriage slut I was, good lord. (I have no recollection of who they were, which is even worse.)

As @btoporek.bsky.social has been bringing up in our podcasts recently: It's ridiculous that expansion franchises will have to operate with a smaller cap percentage than everyone else, especially since the cap will be freaking PEANUTS compared to the franchise fee.

one of the reasons this team fell apart is because his wife got offended by a post Recee Fox made supporting Palestine and came in to the practice facility to yell at her and mike brown. Sabonis also enjoyed sharing his support with teammates at times

If I'm Detroit, I'm very much living with Duren on the QO. Good player. All-Star center. Elite rebounder. Not easily replaceable, but replaceable.

Over $360 million for two players who both struggle to make a jumper. That's, uh, something.

Paying off of one good year is always a risk. But in this case, and at that cost, I'm inclined to like this one.

A few years ago, that lineup could have probably won 20 games.

I've covered the league for the duration of Taj's career, and have only ever heard incredible things about his character. Based on that, and the high IQ he showcased on the floor, I imagine his coaching career could go enormously far.

Morten Stig Jensen @msjnba.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
The Heat should give him a look. He's not a natural floor leader, but he could probably crack that backcourt rotation.

The strength it took for you, and your wife, to start over under such brutal circumstances.. It's going to be difficult to look back. That might never change. But you two walk a new path, and are doing it together, as a family. That's the most important thing. All the vibes, Sir. All the vibes.

25 years ago, I came home from school and turned on the television to see the absolute horrors of the attacks. Just hours later, I went to an introductory meeting about attending high school in the US. Needless to say, I never went. Fear took hold, and plans were changed. I still regret it.

I flat out failed to realize just how good of a year Tre Jones had last season. I'm generally skeptical of the Bulls, but if they play this right, all three of Jones, Powell & Claxton could fetch something nice at the trade deadline.

Depth is the new rage, and I buy into that. But that's a A LOT of guys who will end up sacrificing. Plus, even if they're deep on the wing, it still feels like they're missing that one guy who stands out.

Morten Stig Jensen @msjnba.bsky.social · 05/09/2026
The more I'm doing my pre-season roster analysis, the more convinced I am the Spurs are gearing up for a major consolidation trade. They're completely loaded 1-through-4. Fox, Castle, Harper, Vassell, Champagnie, Johnson, Harris, Bryant, Barnes. Something's gotta give.

Morten Stig Jensen @msjnba.bsky.social · 03/09/2026
It's certainly a reasonable lens, given that teams around the league - for whatever reason - still seem to be interested in players with aforementioned flaws.

Morten Stig Jensen @msjnba.bsky.social · 03/09/2026
This. Have many thoughts about some roster construction tendencies we're seeing these days, which I -uh - don't quite agree with.

Morten Stig Jensen @msjnba.bsky.social · 03/09/2026
Generally speaking, I find a lot of issues with Houston these days. While I love the skill set of Alperen Şengün, him being both a weak floor spacer, and defender - although improved - I just don't find their current roster spending all that enticing. (It's the Sabonis problem all over again.)

Morten Stig Jensen @msjnba.bsky.social · 03/09/2026
I get the "They got him on the non-max extension" argument, and I'll buy into it, at least to some degree. That said, if his jumper doesn't come around, this could look SOUR in a few years. I'm not skeptical, necessarily, but I don't think this is as big a slam dunk for Houston as it's presented.

Morten Stig Jensen @msjnba.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
The hammer came down, as it should. Had the league gone soft on this, it obviously would have been impossible to close Pandora's Box. I do enjoy when the NBA dares to actually wear their big boy pants.

People flip on the TV, and take whatever is being presented as gospel, for whatever reason. Take Colin Cowheard & Stephen A. They're *routinely* wrong on NBA matters, but they're big names, so their "insights" are immediately embraced. People lack real, genuine alternatives.

This remains one of the primary issues of sports coverage. A small amount of people (still) take up the vast majority of the avaliable funds, leaving the actual hard workers fighting for the remaining scraps. The model is so, so, so fucking broken.

I did not have "Bette Midler/Tyrese Gibson feud" on my 2026 bingo card. That may be the most random feud in years. I'm here for it.

Right now, I'm genuinely not sure about what I technically *need* as I'm still in the research phase. Your solution sounds like the optimal one.

Oh God. I hadn't even considered that'd be a rabbit hole too.

Will definitely look into this. Epson seems like a quality brand that keeps popping up in my research.

Yup, that is indeed the fear. And why I ask. Because I can find plenty that look fine during night time, but look like absolute shit in the day time.

Morten Stig Jensen @msjnba.bsky.social · 15/08/2026
Feedback needed. Instead of a TV, I'm looking for a projector. But need the good shit. Not a $200 Temu version. Budget is roughly $3000, and I need something that runs a high frame rate, and will not lose a lot of light during the day.

That uneasy feeling you can’t seem to shake day to day or the constant pit in your stomach everyday? Yeah that’s what living through end stage capitalism feels like…you’re not imaginening anything nor are you losing your mind. It’s your mind revolting against the corrupt status quo
