Around the NBA 12

I feel bad for Scoot. Struggled to take anyone off the dribble. Shot 1 for eternity from 3. Sprained ankle now. I didn't want him but still want him to succeed.

I agree but it would have been unbearable in here if that was miller and scoot was performing

Philly fans on Twitter going berserk over Oubre not passing.

He has 2 assist in 135 minutes this season

Wait til he starts missing shots and getting lazy on defense. I mean, they are seeing peak oubre currently. It's only downhill.

It's still a good spot for him.

What are 3 and 6?

edit: I don't think I've ever had a Star Crunch or the Cosmic Brownie. Looks like the Cosmic Brownie is the fudge brownie with colorful chocolate chips? I think you have to save the Nutty Buddy and Oatmeal Cookie, then it's between the swiss roll and honey bun. Pecan Spinwheels would've been saved instead if that was in the equation.

You need to go buy a cosmic brownie, IMO they are way better than everything else on that list.

I've never had a twinkie.

Of the rest, I'd say 5, 8 and 6.

Zebra cakes are cool.
Honey Buns are the best.
star crunches have a nice chew/crunch.

I like the peacan wheel things more than zebras and stars though.

I wouldn't say you're missing much with the Twinkie. Although, I will say that if you can find a legit local bakery and they make them every now and then, do that. In Raleigh there is a dessert bar that has made them before and I've realized "ah, so this is why these things got mass produced". They often do a homemade Oreo that leads to the same insight.

Ben, I will have to seek out the cosmic brownie when I'm back in the US. In my little Debbie deep dive I learned they weren't produced until 1999, which was probably after the last time I've had anything else from the list (I'm old).

I'm appalled that none of y'all have nutty buddies at the top of your list.

It's #9, a big gap, then #8 and #3

It was my top save. PB 4 life.

In order, 3 - 7 - 9 for me.

Post #453 » by **fatlever** » Wed Nov 8, 2023 11:20 pm

#9 is the only one that appeals to me right now.
lol, i haven't had traditional sweets in like 5 years, but i loved nutty buddies.

Rumors are Jaden Ivey doesn't like coming off the bench. He is only playing 20 mpg behind Killian Hayes and now Marcus Sasser has 3 games over 20ppg.

He hasn't played in their last 3 games at all, apparently not with the team because of "illness"

I often forget how much I hate Draymond Green

"Fischer said that Jones doesn't appear to be in the mental or physical condition needed to play in the NBA right now. That led LA to look elsewhere before landing on bringing in Theis."

Houston surrounded their young talent with tough hard nosed veterans and they're off to a really good start. Good for them.
