WATCH THE OFFICE US SEASON 3 EPISODE 17 SERIES
Not so in the year in which the series takes place. In it, Brent, though boss, is clearly deferring to a sales guy called Chris Finch - with whom he regularly wins the Christmas party quiz. The one in which Ricky Gervais stars as David Brent. One more thing: Maybe some of you are familiar with the British version of “The Office”.The scoring drought just had to result in a loss, it just had to. Not because they played the Warriors, but because of the way the game went in the fourth quarter. The Spurs won a game they were definitely going to lose. The main takeaway for me is this, though.Maybe it was just a case of Lonnie’s shots not falling. But the comment of a fellow Pounder this week made me reconsider. I’ve been critical of Lonnie Walker recently.Because the Spurs are now 4 and 1 when the two combine for more than 40 points. I think it’s therefore reasonable to say that as Dejounte and Derrick go, so go the Spurs. In that, Dejounte has continued to play well – and Derrick White has started to play well. They are now riding a four-game winning streak. Because Dejounte played well while the Spurs were losing most of their games. I read and heard it a couple of times in recent weeks that as “Dejounte Murray goes, so go the Spurs.” I’m not sure why.This is something us Pounders should feel very, very good about. Though Stephen Curry shot worse than he normally does, and though the Warriors defended worse than they normally do, it can’t be overstated that 93 points - I repeat: 93 points - were contributed by players picked or brought into the league by the Spurs.
And I stayed up the entire time.įortunately, my emotionality carried over into that game. Over here in Germany, it was 2.30am when it started. After the game, I was so on fire that I didn’t even go to bed before the Spurs game. Four minutes into stoppage time, “supersub” Divock Origi scored the winning goal for Liverpool – and I exploded! My wife wasn’t at home, but you can ask the neighbors. After striker Diogo Jota had probably the miss of the season, the game went into stoppage time a scoreless draw. In the afternoon, I was watching Liverpool visit the Wolverhampton Wanderers. Saturday, my emotional reactions came back with a bang. I would like to return to going crazy whenever I watch the Spurs or Liverpool play. It’s an interesting experience, but I must admit it makes me feel a bit incomplete.
It’s really the first season ever for me in which the result of each game is less important than individual player development. I guess it’s because I’ve been watching the games with no real expectation. When I watch the San Antonio Spurs play basketball my reactions to them scoring also have not as been as emotional as I had known them to be. A couple of years ago, it was a completely unimaginable for such a thing to happen. In late October, they beat their arch rivals, Manchester United, five goals to none at Old Trafford. The football team I support, Liverpool Football Club, has become so incredibly good that winning games doesn’t feel like it used to. But compared to how crazy I can go watching a football or basketball game, I kind of cooled off in recent months. I was becoming strangely indifferent to whenever the teams I support scored. Because on an emotional level, I had seen my reactions slip.
I guess you could call it a return to form of sorts. It’s been a great weekend for me as an armchair supporter.
