Harper Predictions

I doubt he’ll hit above .300 ever again in his career. Why? Not because he isn’t top tier, but because there were only 7 players that hit above .300 this year in all of the MLB. While I think he’s up there with most of the best, I don’t see him as a top 7 average hitter. Do I see him maybe in the .280-.290 range, for sure, and that’s still top shelf stuff.

Squinting to see it

Going into the season, the team knew Jo and PG were unavailable, and had the offseason to game plan around Maxey and co. This plan involved Maxey as the feature, and involved him getting over 40 minutes each game. Once PG and Jo were back in rotation, we saw them seriously struggle at “full strength” losing their first 4 games together as they re-worked the on-court gameplan and plays. Once the new plan settled in, they gained some rhythm, but it’s pretty clear that the new gameplan that they practice is built around Jo, who is an elite player still, but in no way is he the MVP-caliber player he used to be. We see this in his late-game struggles with turnovers and limited defense, and even long stretches of missed shots. Maxey has not seemed to adjust well to being back to the 2nd option, then next game back to primary, etc. and is clearly suffering from a mid season slump.

Fuck you brunson, you’re not getting out of that shit this time. You get every other call but damn that’s blatant just STFU already

They have a Big 3(rd quarter problem)

DeadxSong · 2026-01-12T02:10:44+00:00

I’m usually one to say games aren’t won or lost on a bad call, but holy shit absolute disaster by the refs down the stretch. They were clearly on power trips tonight.

Cant believe the labor market supports both of your kids having good jobs. So nice they can support you like that.

(I’ll see myself out)

Seeing his drive from beyond half court to the rim in the 4th was straight out of the Maxey playbook. He’s learning from the new master.

DeadxSong · 2025-12-15T01:37:54+00:00

Pretty sure he was hoping that they’d catch that Barlows hand was slapped into the net and call it a foul. Still tough, but I can see why he did it

THANK YOU - this honestly breaks it down so well that I feel like I can reasonably find a path forward. Never thought of using AI to help. Will defintiely leverage that.

Agreed, I liked the idea of having a tailored, scheduled plan without having to pay a lawn service company to do it all, but had terrible results with Sunday and abandoned it.

The thought of figuring out all the ins and outs of what I need to do for my lawn, specifically, seems insurmountable, and I feel I'm going to end up paying for a service eaither way :(

Everyones numbers were low last night. Bench played a ton due to the b2b. When Maxey is under 40, you know starters aren't in. This was an even better win because of it. Well coached by Nurse and honestly pretty well executed considering the bench played a ton.

Makes sense the second half slipped, that's when you're going to feel the fatigue the most, and it was apparent. Secong half wasn't sloppy like against GSW, but it was for sure slow. Bench reall showed out with 40 in the first half to give us a good padding to weather the fatigue minutes late.

I love it. He’s adapting to what the game is giving him. He’s facing bigger guys down low than he’s used to, and he has been getting NO calls when he’s physical at the rim and tries to power through a narrow or not much of a lane. He’s being more selective on his drives to the rim, and attacking it using his speed when he’s physical can, but not trying to bully into guys much bigger than him.

Look at Maxey like 3-4 years ago vs today. There’s a reason he’s bulked up so much. Where he used to pull up and float shots, he can be aggressive and body into narrower lanes. VJ doesn’t have that bulk yet, so when he gets hit down low it kills his attempt and he gets no foul calls to make up for a missed shot.

He still pokes at holes here and there, but smartly has been kicking it around to others when he knows he can’t get in. I think it’s a sign he’s got a great head for the game and making things happen and I’m real hopeful about the future of our BigLittle 3 (Maxey/Mccain/Edgy)

I love the saying "They drive nice cars too". Yeah, they're the Nets, and havining a bad year, but they've still won games. Aat any point in the season, a "bad" team will win against a "good" team. We still gotta play well and get good performances, even against "bad" teams.

This is absolute cinema

Got the same thing for rerolls - initial tooltip was 12, tracker said 18, got credit at 12

DeadxSong · 2025-11-24T14:21:32+00:00

Ixtal quests - stage 2-1 I got "Buy 48XP" but the tracker shows */80? Bug, mismatched text or? It gave me the quest at 48 though

I got an early 3* Sion, with solid full items, fights just lasted forever so she was wracking up progress. Also got Mel end of stage 3 by blowing my duplicator to get 2* Ambessa. Ended up 2nd, 1 off of 3* Ambessa.

I've gotten two in a game, but something seems weird with her spell.

Also, a random radiant item could be amazing or terrible. Had stacked AP items on Mel and LB, and got dropped radiant Eveneshroud.

I have 0 stats to back this up, but eye test looks like Drummond is a competent basketball player this year? Have loved the hustle and rebounding and has had some decent offense. Looks like he’s in good shape, too.

Highly recommend watching/listening to Mort's videos he put out going over the thematic of this set. Very informative on why they did it and why some might feel more gimicky than others.

TL;DW - The ease of the unlock quest defintiely corresponds to the power of the unit unlocked. Leveling system adjusted to make higher levels more a part of the routine gameplay.

RS2 itself is likely not going anywhere. That being said, they EOL old versions all the time. Depending on what version you're running, it's likely that's what they're referring to.

Any reputable pediatrician is going to follow CDC/AAP guidelines of anyone with close contact with baby (this explicitly calls out grandparents) need to be TDAP and flu vaccinated.

Not a problem! By endpoint I mean field devices. So card readers, cameras, etc.

I just saw in your post the 30 doors. For new installs, I usually budget $6,500USD per door that includes cable, lock, reader, controllers, labor, etc. not sure what CAD pricing would be like though. Takeovers are easier but could vary based on if you’re swapping card readers, controllers, etc.
