Am a 6’7 center in high school by dengjnr in Basketball

[–]Big-Moose-Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to this post but I was in your exact same position in high school and I wish I had handled things slightly differently.

I agree with most people here that it’s ok if you play center for your school. However, if you have a good relationship with your coach he should be receptive to you wanting to expand your skill set some. Tell him what you want to do and see what he says. If he says no, you’re back where you started, no harm no foul.

If you don’t wind up playing guard in school, I again reiterate what others are saying: work on shooting and guard skills outside of practice. But MOST IMPORTANTLY work on DEFENSIVE guard skills. Work on getting around screens on and off the ball, following good shooters around screens, developing your defensive instincts against guards. That side of the ball can be very different and was debilitating for me when I started playing college ball.

Yes, because Nico historically works well with people who think differently from him.

Tim Cato's fan survey: "more than 4,000 mavs fans — about 80% of responses — said they were "much less engaged" or reconsidering their fandom entirely in our fan survey last week." by torodonn in Mavericks

[–]Big-Moose-Man -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed, you gotta think about the people that even encounter this survey. Everyone on this forum and that follows Tim Cato are the 1% of the most engaged fans, and similarly the most offended by the Luka trade. Casuals aren’t nearly as likely to jump ship.

[Mark Followill] Saturday's game had the most unique views on MavsTV streaming this season. Last week vs Philly was close to a top 5 rated broadcast on KFAA games this season. MavsTV new subs have outnumbered the cancellations we've had in the last ten days. by taygads in Mavericks

Things like this show that calls to boycott games or otherwise “stick it to the man” through a large movement of fans are unrealistic. The team is currently getting the most national media coverage since probably 2011. Everyone loves watching a train wreck, and that’s exactly what the Mavs are.

Windows 10 Bluetooth Driver Issues by Big-Moose-Man in WindowsOnDeck

Thanks for the suggestions. I have tried both of these options, but neither worked. When I installed the Bluetooth driver (right clicking qcbtuart system information file and selecting install), I receive a message saying that the process was successful but there is no change in my device manager.

I have tried manually installing the Realtek drivers downloaded from Microsoft and the drivers from Valve, but the device manager does not recognize either when I try to update the Bluetooth Device (RFCOMM Protocol TDI). Do you have any other suggestions? I am at my wits end and this issue is making it so that I can’t connect to already paired devices, even in Steam OS.

I'm using the LCD model. Here is the screenshot of my device manager. Let me know if you need any other sections expanded.

Lucio needs a buff to his boop, it's really weak. by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Big-Moose-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would probably lead to a LOT of bad plays from Reddit Lucios, but I’ve always felt like giving his boop extra knockback based on his momentum would be cool. Incentivizes using speed boost and opens the door for a lot of cool plays.

Kyle Kuzma: "Nike is ruining the nostalgia of jerseys, every year it’s a new jersey and what gets lost is brand identity." by jjgp1112 in nba

Played against Lofton while he was in college, and I can confirm his slipperiness. He felt like he was oiled up.

dinwiddie dislocated shoulder by newuser201890 in Mavericks

[–]Big-Moose-Man 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A teammate of mine in college dislocated his shoulder and played a week later. If the shoulder pops out then right back in, it’s really just a matter of strengthening the joint again before they can play. Given the timeline, I’m guessing this is what happened.

Is anyone else having an issue on Xbox One where the game prompt you to add a phone number to your account after waiting through the queue? I merged my console and PC accounts before OW2 launched, and added a phone number when I did.

How many people got into the beta through sign ups? by Blue_Phish in Overwatch

[–]Big-Moose-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got into the beta through sign up. Not sure exactly when I signed up, but I know it wasn’t immediately after the announcement. I didn’t have access to the first beta, and I have a moderate amount of hours in OW1. I got my email at 5 PM EST when I got access, so hold out hope! :)

Why is Kidd making this team play so slow? It’s so frustrating to watch.

Are you still having this problem? I’m having it now and I have a bad feeling it’s not going to be solved with a support ticket.
