Am I the only one who is sick of 3pters being so important in basketball?

Watched the brothers Grimsby yesterday. Cohen is so original.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

It's only this important because handchecking isn't allowed and moving screens are (well, you can move all you want up until contact). The NBA has to balance this out eventually or else it's going to turn into a chuckfest. It won't happen anytime soon, but it's the young kids that are watching this and will adopt this type of play.

I think handchecking should be allowed while the offensive player is outside the 3pt line area. But hands off while driving.

The last scene was boss, the dragon got even bigger. Scary stuff. I'm just waiting till the other two catch up and ride a long with Khaleesi. I honestly thought @ first that Jon Snow saved Bran and the girl lol.

Who do you think will ride the other 2 dragons?

My guess:

Spoiler:
Tyrion Targaryen, Aerys's bastard, and Jon Targaryen, Rhaegar's bastard

Wouldn't be surprising if all along that she's with the Sparrows and they plotted the whole chit to take over Kings Landing. (Shh I havent read any books, like you gom lol)

I mean she was always manipulative, especially that devious smile that she has lol.

Spoiler:
Way past the books now in King's Landing, Meereen, North of the Wall, and... well everywhere except for the Iron Islands and that's catching up. There are differences in the books: a faux-Targaryen usurper that has settled in Dragonstone, the Dorne mess in the tv series - ug, Robb's wife never dies at the Red Wedding, ok - plenty more, but nothing too significant. I'm actually enjoying the series more now that I cannot complain how it falls short of the books! ;-)

Wow interesting and cool. Well two more seasons left (up until 8) and past the books now, will be interesting nonetheless.

Spoiler:
I would buy this story ending in a final showdown with the White Walkers. However, the Lannisters need to pair up with the Bolton's, Uncle Greyjoy and the Frey's at this point to bring a good war the Three Headed Dragon's if that happens. They are a conflicted and evil family but they instill no fear since Tywin died. Jamie's character needs to be develop further IMO, he softened up along the way.

Spoiler:
Actually, that is one thing that is different from the books: Jamie's softening. I would say he becomes more circumspect in the books, but he more or less rejects Cersei after returning (from the North - he never goes to Dorne). In the books he is in the Riverlands orchestrating sieges (where he is finally arriving in the show.) My gut feeling is that the "you need good pussy" (never happens in the books) Sand Snakes are going to have a go against Tommen to move King's Landing towards war with Dorne. I'm not sure why they haven't already gone to war after Myrcella's murder. Bizarre, really, right? Someone forgot the plot line? In the books Lady Stark is this undead thing that is killing people in the Riverlands. Brienne is around there too - and she's headed there with Sansa, right? Plus, Arya's wolf is one of only two alive (the other is Ghost). Nymeria (the wolf's name) is prowling the Riverlands too. I think Jamie is headed for disaster. Plus, it may be time for Arya to return to Westeros to start killing people. Cersei is at the top of her list. Heavy foreshadowing with the play to remind viewers perhaps? My impression is that the Freys, Greyjoys, Boltons, etc are only a distraction against the real war coming. They need to distract the Lannisters so that Miss Targaryen can conquer King's Landing. Also, I think in the books they won't go to KL first... Remember Tyrion's knowledge of the sewers of Casterly Rock? GRRM wouldn't waste that. Besides wasn't that how Meereen was captured? Anyway, yeah, Jamie is screwed, but this may just be a distraction to get him away from Cersei so that bad things can happen to her. She is awful certain about success in that trial by combat. Isn't she?

Spoiler:
You are probably right with your distraction views. It would be interesting to see the dynamics with Jamie and Brienne when they see each other again. It wouldn't surprise me if Littlefinger attempts to redeem himself with Sansa by forcing the Arryn's to go after the Frey's to avenge the "Red Wedding" and maybe free Edmure who was an uncle to the Starks. Also, Yara Greyjoy might be one of my favorite characters. I cheer for her not only because she is a badass but because she does with a good head over her shoulders. Might be even a better leader of men than Daenerys. My hope is that somehow the sister/brother team joins the Three Headed Dragon at some point as opposed to just being a side show. I can see an alliance with Jon Snow and Wildlings to overtake Winterfell from Ramsay and then get back the Iron Islands from their sneaky uncle.

That Iron Islands fleet (of a thousand ships) will transport Daenerys's army. They even used the same number: 1000 ships.
