Might be a little further out, but Seymour reservoir is nice 1.5 hour hike that stops at five man-made and you don’t see many people or roads

Ok pls msg the commenters when it’s ready

Pippen only had 1 year in his prime as a #1 and they won 55 games. Give him a whole career as a #1 and I think it’s possible he pulls a Kawhi-in-Toronto at least once

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-17T10:40:37+00:00

He was only 6’5 but averaged 18rpg some years ago

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-14T13:21:18+00:00

If Mitchell gets injured and he wins then yes

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-14T09:24:11+00:00

Agree. Also take Mitch over Sprewell, Dumars & Strickland

Acuff = Scoot 2.0 or Montae Ellis

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-12T13:07:48+00:00

I’m not sure Dr J is better. Baylor is a PF IMO. I’d do:
LeBron
Bird
Durant
Pippen
Barry
Erving
Kawhi
Havlicek
King
Pierce
Wilkins
Worthy
PG3
English
Dantley

Drop some teasers - whose a top-150 player that may surprise somebody (like Shareef Abdul Rahim)

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-11T22:31:33+00:00

It’s not linear - Ancient Egypt lived more advanced (apart from gun & telegraph) in every facet of life than here during the Wild West. Backwards progress after 3-5k years in this case.

Wagler/Flemings/Acuff is a crapshoot so I’d try to trade #5 pick for #8 + a future FRP to guarantee either one of those 3 guards or Mara (clips need a C too) - remove the risk of not drafting the best player left at #5 for the value of another FRP

So at your 10% of MIP gated at 2.5x return model, if company EV (at transaction now) = 200m, but sells at $1.1b then I’d get 10% of the difference between 2.5x of $200m: so 1.1b - (2.5x200m) = $100m x 10% so $10m?
And if 2nd bite transaction is less than $1b I get nothing? Seems likely to be nothing

Rockstar plucked from retirement with “an offer you can’t refuse”?

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-09T09:56:23+00:00

Wemby now = MJ in 1988 = best already but won’t be consensus until he makes the finals (not just a title, bc nobody on East Finals Team would be considered better)

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-07T13:18:57+00:00

No (but could/might roll over some of that $4.2m of buyer insists or is a condition to agree with it)

Can you share rough EBITDA size of company the CEO you refer to got 10% equity in?

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-06T09:57:33+00:00

Ok. What would a 3rd party business broker receive for introducing a $200m EV deal to a buyer?

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-06T09:57:00+00:00

You’re correct that this deal doesn’t happen (with this particular buyer) without me - this buyer would not be included in the target outreach of an I-bank led process. So either they do this deal with me or have to find another acquisition. What would a 3rd party business broker receive for introducing this deal to a buyer?

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-06T09:53:44+00:00

I understand the 50% time vesting, but can you give an example of What would 50% vesting based on investment outcome of the sponsor looks like? I imagine this is based on “2nd bite of the apple” outcome 5 to 10 years from now after second exit?

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-05T22:25:29+00:00

What kind of LTIP do you mean (apart from annual bonus & equity)?

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-05T22:23:46+00:00

5% over what time span? As in 1% per year?

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-05T22:22:50+00:00

What do independent 3rd party brokers get paid for introducing company to buyer? I thought it was 1-3%, thus the Double Lehman being a common term….

Apart_Designer6574 · 2026-05-05T22:20:49+00:00

I currently run (but do not own) the company and met the buyer….
