    yeh... but just like we tend to play down to our competition - we typically have the same effect on other teams... watch them look like a discombobulated mess... lol!

    FUN FACT: There are only 6 players in the NBA that average at least 18 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists this season.

    4 of those guys are All Stars (Luka, Jalen Johnson, Deni Avdija, and Scottie Barnes).

    The other 2 are Rockets (Sengun and Amen).

    Hmmm....

    Not to not pick - it's Huckle Bearer. An old term that means Pallbearer.

    There is a popular modern theory that the line was actually "I'm your huckle bearer." * The Theory: A "huckle" was supposedly a handle on a casket, making a "huckle bearer" a pallbearer. In this version, Doc is telling Ringo, "I'll be the one carrying your coffin."

    • The Reality: Most historians and linguists consider this a "back-formation"—a myth created after the movie came out. There is no historical record of the term "huckle bearer" being used for pallbearers in the 1880s. Val Kilmer himself has confirmed the script and his delivery were always "huckleberry."

    Normally I'd take Houston to win but Boston to cover here. But without Jaylen (hopefully) and with KD back, I think we're pumped the day before the deadline. Houston -7.5
