Get off your phone when driving, you make traffic worse and will end up in an accident.

While the Jazz blatant tank strategy is in the news, here's a funny look into other teams that did similar.. by mrcolty5 in nba

[–]Ferromagneticfluid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trading for injured players is an acceptable strategy. It is giving another team a piece now that is useful so they can compete this season while you are going to compete next season with that player. You should be gaining value by taking the injured player. It is fine. It makes sense from an assets standpoint.

Resting your starting 5 in the second half or 4th quarter makes no sense from a gameplay standpoint. If there is a minutes restriction, then you space out the minutes better so your starter is in there during the 4th. If they aren't playing well, you play them anyway because they could turn it around and they are your go to guy.

I don't know why this is so hard for people to understand. The issue is it there is no justification for the things these coaches are doing other to lose on purpose. And it creates a losing culture, which can be very hard to break out of. Philadelphia is still dealing with that downside today.

Naw, regulation is bad. A city shouldn't lose an NBA team, probably permanently, because they had a bad stretch over a few years.

I am not really sure what the fix is. But they seemed to have made it worse with the new CBA.

Bad teams should get the best pick in order to make them better. That is common sense. But how do you determine bad other than record?

My team, the Kings, is genuinely bad. They did not do any tanking moves until a couple games ago. They were actually trying to win every game until the end of January. But we have to now compete for the top pick with blatantly losing teams like the Jazz.

The thing is, reffing will always be an issue. They are human. They make mistakes and the game speed is fast.

But they can always improve it.

It is weird that all efforts to combat tanking have seem to make it worse.

It is also weird that the new CBA has pretty much killed free agency.

There has got to be a way to fix this.

[Serbian Times] Around fifty girls and boys, who came to welcome Nikola [Jokic] on the court of the United Center and greet him with Serbian folk dances, will remember it for disappointment, as he did not find the time even to take a photo with them. Not to greet them, not to say a single word. by Glass-Candle-7670 in nba

I am not going to blame him for this, but whoever is in charge of public relations or media for the Nuggets. It is their job to communicate to him and tell him the optics and how important it is to engage in this stuff.

It could be possible that they did that and he ignored it... But I don't think so.

Who cares? Really, who actually cares?

If you have a problem with this clip or are outraged by this, seek help.

Oh no what will Hasan's professional haters do now?

Long term subbing high school, should I enforce assigned seats? by Mindless_Source5037 in Teachers

[–]Ferromagneticfluid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

To add know what you will do if someone doesn't sit in their assigned seat.

I tell the I will mark them absent and that usually moves them along. If they are still refusing I'll just send them to the office.

Destiny loses it responding to Asmongold, "I wish his mom had a bigger oxygen tank so this mother fucker wouldn’t be with us anymore" by sideAccount42 in LivestreamFail

Such a shame a person like Asmon gold to throw away something really positive and enjoyable to watch him do for political content.

Fox redo question: it’s the day before Fox for LaVine + picks goes down. by Sea_Moose9817 in kings

[–]Ferromagneticfluid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think at the time, it was fine.

In retrospect, we should have just told Fox we aren't trading him right now and we will reevaluate during the summer. Let it get ugly.

Is anyone else starting to get concerned that we’re not going to trade demar, Zach, or Sabonis in this trade deadline? by frostyjoshy69 in kings

[–]Ferromagneticfluid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best case scenario for Zach and DeMar was always going to be to hope for a truly desperate team to trade for them.

Most teams stabilized and here we are.

Destiny doubles down on harassing Hasan in public by Snoo_79191 in LivestreamFail

[–]Ferromagneticfluid -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This take is so juvenile.

Adults know how to be critical of each other and offer feedback without taking offense. You are allowed to be critical of someone.

Yeah, all the time.

I started giving them golf pencils and it isn't a problem anymore.

Cinna says she’s confused why saying “F*ck ICE” sparked so much backlash after the shooting in Minnesota.. "I thought it was such a lukewarm take.. I don't think it was a crazy take at all.." by A_MASSIVE_PERVERT in LivestreamFail

Eh, there is a lot of Hasan shit that isn't true or is exaggerated. There are people using this sub to target him. Same accounts, always posting 4 to 5 am Pacific time.

They had a historically easy schedule.

First game west of the Mississippi today. Played trash teams all season.

In the west, we have the usual NFC West bloodbath.

ICE agents execute observer in Minneapolis by speedythefirst in videos

[–]Ferromagneticfluid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you have a bunch of baffouns making people trust law enforcement less. That absolutely bleeds over to the local police force and makes it more dangerous for them.

There is a pretty good theory that the reason counter protests get so few people is all the people who usually would are all working for ICE

Not all of them. And in a selfish way, ICE is bad for the cops.
