There are some sports where you can't just say anything before the thing is over.

Basketball is a good example of that.

In #nba, Kobe Bryant once said "job is not finished" when asked "are you not happy or are you half happy?" after game 2 from the 2009 #NBAFinals.

By the way... Lakers won the series 4-1 back then.

Let's see what happens tomorrow, after the East Conference Finals Game 7 finishes.

To jest jeden z powodów, dla których uwielbiam grać w tą grę, kiedy o wygranej decyduje dosłownie ułamek sekundy, dokładniej jedna klatka filmu, czyli ok. 1/30s.

Po bardzo wyrównanym meczu online mój przeciwnik miał szansę na oddanie ostatniego rzutu, zrobił to i trafił, ale gra uznała, że było już po czasie.

Obaj byliśmy pewni, że powinno mu zaliczyć wygraną, więc sprawdziłem klatka po klatce, co się wydarzyło.

I okazuje się, że rzut został oddany dokładnie w ułamku sekundy, kiedy czas się już kończył i jak widać na screenie po dłoni - jest przeskok animacji i kiedy na zegarze było już 0, mój przeciwnik może dotykał, a może nie dotykał jeszcze piłki :)

Detail of the Raphael's “School of Athens” fresco depicting an elder Plato with a raised right hand and upwards-pointing index finger debating something with his younger pupil Aristotle, who is holding a book in his left hand, and extending his right arm forward with an open, downward-facing palm. You can easily imagine Artistotle dribbling a phantom basketball while Plato is spinning one on his extended index finger.

Maryland women looking like they can handle Illinois at the B1G tournament tonight. An Iowa / Maryland rematch in the semi tomorrow would be LIT.

(Do the kids still say that? I’m sure they don’t. But dang, that would be a great matchup.)

Turkey’s regime put a bounty on my head. We’re not ready for what it might do next.

“…because I used my platform as a professional #basketball player to denounce its strongman, Recep Tayyip #Erdoğan … his regime revoked my passport, filed 12 lawsuits against me, and put my name on Interpol’s “Red Notice” list … raided my home in #Turkey and imprisoned my father … [got] my brother fired from his basketball team and prevented my sister from finding a job.”

Disastrous second quarter for the Iowa Hawkeye women. Maryland is hitting all their shots; Iowa looks out of sorts, taking bad shots and missing them.

Iowa State hurt themselves there at the end and squandered any chance to win. Refs didn’t help things.

Cyclones have the ability to be a good team but if they can’t figure out how to win on the road they’re not going far.
