This whole thing involving Giannis and the Heat reminds me of a story an old submarine man from WWII told me. He saw action in the Pacific against the Japanese. His words:
"We'd get a Japanese ship on scope. Line up the shot. Then send the torpedoes off. We often sent four, because so damned many of them were duds early on in the war. We kind of hoped a couple of them would hit the ship and blow her up. When you put the duds and misses together, you never counted on anything to happen the way you thought it might."
Only two out of four of these stories have any validity whatsoever, and even then, you gotta wonder if they're even on target, or a miss.
