This is a time of celebration, not slander, unless it's about sham.

It's not slander though

Slander is spoken. When it's printed, it's libel

Unless it's true, so in this case it's neither.

Jessica Jones was unironically peak, at least in season 1

Iron Fist was just like, worse Arrow

Which is weird right, cause Arrow was a CW show, and pretty clearly just "we didn't have the money for Batman, so we just made the same show but with Oliver Queen instead", meanwhile Iron Fist could've been anything, and had the funding to be anything

But that gif is from She-Hulk. It's funny cause it's a meta joke, the kind where you're supposed to jump out of your seat because "character I know from other thing in this thing", which is way too overdone in the modern MCU.

season 1 of JJ was the best marvel. Kinda fell off a bit after that. Wasn't a fan of herspoiled rich friend.

I haven't watched shehulk yet. I do like the actor in it - she is really talented. Just haven't made the commitment yet.

It's pretty mid

Like most everything since Endgame and basically every D+ show. If you got nothing else to watch, it's not bad to pass the time, but I wouldn't say it's a must-watch

Except Loki, that show is actual fire.

They did a really good job capturing Chinatown in Iron Fist though! Recognized so many of the locations.

Got rid of most of the China in Chinatown, though.

DareDevil was the best imo. That last season (s3) was awesome. Peak Wilson Fisk man.

Do we think the Grimes injury is real or is it just keeping him out before the deadline?

Really, they don’t want to attach an asset or move him for expirings? For 46 million a year, you won’t move damaged goods that is now out 4 to 6 months and always misses time, that the team plays better when his no defense azz is out? WOW

https://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/274528/Bulls-May-Have-To-Attach-Asset-To-Trade-Zach-LaVine

There is a growing sense that the Chicago Bulls will have to attach an asset in order to trade Zach LaVine, according to K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago.
The Bulls have been reluctant to do so, and also are not interested in moving LaVine for expiring contracts.
Johnson adds that the Pistons, who have been linked with a move for LaVine, are still undecided about a potential deal.
LaVine will earn $138 million over the next three seasons.

A lot of execs questioned Toronto's thought process last year especially when they jsut let Van Fleet walk.

Thist past year has been a head scratcher with the Bulls. They really believe that they can compete and is missing a healthy Lonzo Ball away from the playoffs?!

Re Toronto, had Masai not waited so long on OG and Siakam, what would his return have been? And better something than nothing on Van Fleet, no? Is it a pride thing? He could have gotten way more for OG and Siakam if he hadn’t waited. Bad job imo.

Feel really bad for Lonzo, even though I hate the bulls, I hate to see an injury derailing a dream. Lonzo is great but after missing so much time, if he comes back it will take a lot of time. But holding on to an injury riddled no defense player is just asking for problems, and they came.
