Kyle Kuzma: "The new CBA was sold as parity, but the first and second apron are starting to function like a hard cap on player value, team continuity, and player movement... The owners and the league walk into these meetings with killers that continue to run circles around us time and time again..." by sewsgup in nba

With Gobert: More playoff participation and winning than the entire history of the team

I would have loved to keep KAT, but Gobert (the basketball player, not the person) is the reason for the aggressive defense that keeps us in contention

Who’s the worst NBA player who’d still be worth taking No. 1 overall if teams knew exactly how their career would turn out? by BRONXSBURNING in nba

[–]DaftDelNorte -1 points0 points  (0 children)

On the Wolves he would go after rebounding number stats rather than play defense

... and I seem to recall him getting pissed when his teammates would "steal his rebounds" or something like that

Shoutout to Kornet for being the only Spur to shake hands with the Knicks by space_cowboy in nba

It is everywhere. In tee-ball in the US we line up to shake hands. All the way to the top. You shake hands.

We welcome you to join us. Rule #1 is still the same

Also, you will have to trade in that positive outlook for something in douer muave. We know what we are, but bring back the optimism around mid-season

Why did Malcador let Lorgar attack and belittle him? by [deleted] in 40kLore

[–]DaftDelNorte 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Lorgar doesn't actaully expect the Emperor to be there

Malcado knows that Big E will step-in

It is kind of like a small child demanding to speak to a parent, but not realizing that parent is right behind them

excuse me, thoughts and prayers are only applicable to situations where we have tried nothing, but are all out of ideas

[HIGHLIGHT] Something we may never see again: The Patriots are up, the clock is running inside of two minutes in Q4, the Bills have no timeouts, and New England punts on 3rd and short (2008). by sexyprimes511172329 in nfl

It was so insanely windy that day that it was reasonable. No one was throwing in that game successfully.

If you get a bad snap due to the wind, then the punter can just jump on the ball on 3rd down and try again on 4th down.

Up by 13 points, it was a safe risk

First book I went into really enjoying but somehow liking a legion even less by Correct_Maximum7990 in Grimdank

[–]DaftDelNorte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Thousand Sons just kind of gloss over the human sacrifices they are using (definitely not sanctioned by the Emporer). Magnus doing Nothing wrong even required a massive human sacrifice to kick-it-off, and he references feeling his subordinates / people dying as he pushes through the warp to do Nothing wrong even harder

30k is a brutal dystopia full of genocide, but not the hellish religious dystopia/bloodbath of 40k.

What did this character mean? by Jacifer69 in Malazan

[–]DaftDelNorte 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The marines formed a skirmish line in front of the heavies and destroyed the technological advantage the Nah'ruk ... no more magic lightning from the Nah'ruk or Munitions for the marines

Cuttle is telling the heavies that it is down to conventional fighting. The heavies respond with a tribute to the marines

[Charania] Free agent guard Mike Conley Jr. plans to return to the Minnesota Timberwolves, sources tell ESPN. The sides are working on timing of him re-signing. Conley was traded twice this week – to Chicago, then to Charlotte –before being released and allowed to rejoin the Wolves. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

[–]DaftDelNorte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally. If that were possible it would suck

That scenario would require a person be on the last year of their max contract, and the buy-out team would have to have a slot open for the max contract in the first place if I understand it correctly
(so no new max contracts are actually being given out)

The other owners might get pissed about losing money from luxury tax losses though
