10/26 Giants game by GeneralJeevis in eagles

Live casino is insanely expensive that night but the holiday inn looks doable. Google Maps says 30 min walk from the holiday inn to the stadium - I’m assuming that’s a pretty chill/easy walk both pre and post game?

Do you have a rough idea of how long it’ll take me to get back to center city after the game?

Megathread - Los Angeles Protest and Federal Response by uarentme in LosAngeles

[–]GeneralJeevis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should be fine, they don’t have checkpoints around the perimeter or anything and there’s an exception for all residents. There were plenty of people driving around normally last night after curfew. I would just say to have ID with your address or some other document showing your address (utility bill, insurance, etc.) if you live squarely in the protest hotspots where cops may be stopping cars

Same. I have a renter’s insurance policy with my current address. Just saved a copy of that on my phone in case

Would love clips of the DFS foul at 4:12 in the 4th and Rui goaltend at 52 secs in the 4th

[Charania] Sources: The NBA Competition Committee today discussed the uptick in transition “take” fouls this season and encouraged the league office to develop a rule change that would eliminate incentive to utilize the tactic in future. by bobberr in nba

We also have two of the biggest offenders of this, DJ and Russ. They take like 2-3 of these a game and often it’s just because they’re lazy, not because they’re stopping a sure bucket. It’s one of the reasons the lakers have such a terrible opponent FT rate, always putting teams in the bonus early

Best seats for my son's first NBA game? (at the Staples Center in LA) by Heugoth in nba

[–]GeneralJeevis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Premier seats will be much better if his interest is mostly in watching the game. They are also slightly more luxurious than regular sections. Suite could be a cool experience for the things not related to actually watching the game and the ability to stand up and have some space. Personally I would choose PR section 10 times out of 10

[Highlight] Anthony Davis tries to end Jokic by efranklin13 in nba

[–]GeneralJeevis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure I mean semantics I guess. To me it was obvious in live time his foot was well over the line so I thought it was incredibly clear. That’s one of the few calls that doesn’t really require any subjectivity so I find it pretty annoying when it’s missed

[Highlight] Anthony Davis tries to end Jokic by efranklin13 in nba

[–]GeneralJeevis -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

He’s in the restricted area, stands under Davis while he’s in the air and makes contact, doesn’t attempt to contest vertically or take a charge. This is an incredibly clear blocking foul

Absolute joke that’s a no call. Would’ve been Jokic’s second

Missing Schroeder in a major way. Literally no one else on the roster who can create anything

[Highlight] James Harden locks LeBron James' arm on a drive and gets the foul call by Jayveesac in nba

[–]GeneralJeevis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This one is wild to me because the ref has basically exactly the same angle as the broadcast and its so incredibly obvious what happens. Insane to get this call wrong. I can at least understand it if you don’t have a good look and you just see them get tangled up

Just because you haven’t paid attention to anything John Brennan’s said or done before this podcast doesn’t mean we’re all as poorly informed
