For a quick break from stressful national events, consider watching my third video for the Warriors organization. Explain: Steph Curry is an All-Star at 37 and still breaking records with gravity. by @EricApricot

The Santa Cruz Warriors have acquired 6'6 wing, Riley Grigsby, from the available player pool to replace the roster spot vacated by Charles Bassey's NBA call-up. Grigsby, a San Jose native, has been in the facilities working out with the Sea Dubs throughout the season.

It takes about four minutes to call your representatives using 5calls.org, which provides the phone numbers to dial and a script to read. Will calling alone fix this country's issues? Not even close. Will it accomplish more than doomscrolling for the next four minutes? Absolutely yes.

Democrats in the Senate must grow a spine. They can rein in this murderous regime next week. Why on Earth would they continue to fund this tyranny? Call your senators now: indivisible.org/campaigns/ho...

Noooooooooooooooooooo

It’s a great day when my favorite ESPN NBA announcer Mark Jones says he digs my videos. Always been impressed by how smoothly he brings in NBA tactics while engaging fans. Such preparation and skill.

Quick stereotype of sports fans: NFL. Players are letting down us and the owners NBA. Players are let down by the coach, GM, owner and ref conspiracy NHL. Players played through life threatening injuries, good job. NHL (new). Boy aquarium!! MLB. Why can't our owners spend like the Dodgers? Close?

My last E1P video was a couple of weeks ago, published by the Warriors YouTube channel! I’m planning on another one this week. These are supposed to be announced to my own YT channel but clearly a lot of people are not seeing the collaboration notifications… dubnationhq.com/p/explain-ho...

I admit this sounds very tempting, especially the pastries

Still no CBA deal, but the players union and the WNBA have agreed to a moratorium that will suspend free agency until a new agreement is signed.

Just walked past the Warriors team store, where Jonathan Kuminga jerseys have been off the shelves for months. From @janekennyy, who caught up with some Kuminga Truthers sfstandard.com/2026/01/12/j...

More ice moisture games:

I remember doing a little research on this while the Valkyries prepared to play Game 2 vs MIN over the covered Sharks ice in SAP Center. Ice moisture did cancel 2015 preseason GSW-LAL (mid-game!) but that was a site not used to handling that… www.chatsports.com/los-angeles-...

I just wanted to tell you all that… Hello Kitty loves you

Have I mentioned I have an irrational good feeling about Will Richard

Thrilling comeback by GSW, just lost the random ending. Yes, refs missed goaltend call, but Steph got lucky late 3 bounce. Many REBs took weird bounces. Sometimes, it’s just not your night. In fact the most controllable factor was Kerr getting himself ejected, that’s the difference in the game.

Every Warriors game, win or lose, Always Close Enough to Hurt™

In the 2000s I put together a web site which let voters choose between pairs of player photos. I called it Moneybutt and it was clearly a major factor in the rise of athleticsnation.com and hence the SB Nation empire. Maybe I should bring it back...

From yesterday The Warriors organization asked me to make some videos for their YT channel. Here is the second video! Explain: How Jimmy Butler III made Steve Kerr evolve the Warriors Offense On waterbenders and earthbenders uniting and electromagnetic celebrations

From earlier today... The Warriors organization asked me to make some videos for their YT channel. Here is the second video! Explain: How Jimmy Butler III made Steve Kerr evolve the Warriors Offense On waterbenders and earthbenders uniting and electromagnetic celebrations

What? where are my royalty payments?? But seriously, hearing from people out there are learning from them or just enjoying the absurd humor, that keeps me going

Currently working on another video for the Warriors… should be released on their YouTube channel in next few days…

I just opened up two consecutive Talenti sorbetto jars with my bare hands first try, no power tools or anything Ask Me Anything

GSW look excellent except for having trouble in the last 2 minutes of the game in the speciality skills of inbounding the ball, avoiding bad fouls, committing strategic fouls, passing the ball (to teammates), dribbling the ball (and keeping it), shooting the ball (through the net).

For all of the consistent agony of the GSW games, they actually have won 5 of the last 6 and were 2 total points away from winning their last 8 games in a row.

I should schedule this to auto-post every Warriors game

Warriors up 10 with 0:58 left on the road back to back. This game has made my pancreas twitch uncontrollably

Dub Nation, just so you know, I've seen this movie before and it's Always Close Enough To Hurt™

the best action to take about this is to subscribe to papers that cover women’s sports so that they keep sending women’s sports writers to cover stories

Great piece on the arena voice of Ballhalla and Warriors. So much serendipity in her life! By @janekennyy How Ari Waller became the voice that makes Chase Center feel alive

TMI?

Merry Christmas everyone, I just wanted to tell you all that I love you

Merry Christmas, Dub Nation! I made you a silly Christmas card. #DubNation #GSW 🏀 (inspired by @ericapricot.bsky.social 's E1P)

Tonight marks Pat Spencer's 29th game active for the Warriors. He has 21 left on his Two-Way deal, which would take him through Feb. 3rd, before he has to be sidelined. The other Two-Ways, LJ Cryer (38 games) & Malevy Leons (36 games) have not used any of their available games.

Did you see my last video here? In a secret hiding place where no one ever goes dubnationhq.com/p/explain-st...

HAVE I MENTIONNNNNED

From yesterday... The Warriors asked me to make some videos for them, so enjoy this, the first of three planned videos! Explain: Steph Curry's Record-Breaking 48 Points and 12 Threes by @EricApricot On zipper cuts and holiday celebrations

I probably won’t go back to doing those… It’s a lot of work and 10% of the audience...

Sorry, I was too tired and busy this week. But if all goes well, I am hoping to have a video out next week published on a most interesting YT channel...

Veronica Burton’s breakout year continues. Three months after being named the WNBA’s Most Improved Player, the Golden State Valkyries point guard is spending December at Team USA’s training camp in her first senior national team callup. | @sfchronicle.com www.sfchronicle.com/sports/artic...

HAVE I MENTIONED I HAVE AN IRRATIONAL GOOD FEELING ABOUT WILL RICHARD

Excellent article about epidemic of calf strains, with Steph Curry featured heavily.

Great article about Pat Spencer’s basketball journey

During today's media availability, @mingemi.bsky.social asked Golden State Valkryies guard Veronica Burton about being reunited with her head coach, Natalie Nakase, at her first USA Basketball Senior Camp.

Notes on Jonathan Kuminga's Trade Kicker: 🔹Worth 15% of the remaining guaranteed value left on the contract (25/26 prorated salary) 🔸Does not count as outgoing salary for GSW 🔹Does count as incoming salary for JK's new team 🔸Does count against GSW's cap sheet after trade

Kayla Thornton, unrestricted free agent, wants to be back with the Valkyries, and more from @mingemi.bsky.social

On new Warrior Malevy Leons: 44-117 (.376) from three across two G-League seasons. 6-9 height, 7-1 wingspan. So maybe a stretch 4.50. Also, he is a Dunleavy type. #125 in in college BPM 2023, #162 in 2024. A lot of defensive highlights. I'm quite interested in seeing him play.
