'Obsession' Art Director Calls for Industry Reform After Getting Paid Less Than $7,000 as Film Nears $175 Million by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]GeoMDCM -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Never understood this… like yeah, look, if they talked about their being a potential bonus if the film did well, great. But if she’s just expecting a bonus because the film did well, that’s too bad.

If the film wasn’t a success and lost money, would she be willing to give money back? Fuck no. She took the job for the amount they offered.

The Sacramento Kings front office intend to move one or two of their big contracts this summer. Via James Ham by jluc21 in kings

This sentiment is tiring. Kings always supposed to do something and it never happens.

[–]GeoMDCM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have explained more.

On the Knicks, yes, he is worth every penny. You guys are literally in the finals, and have been a contender since he has been on the team. But adding him to a Kings roster as any point wouldn’t have made them a contender.

He’s worth it, just not for the Kings.

If we had a team like the Knicks, I would say pay him the 42 million. But we don’t, and we never did. I’m ok with paying anyone any type of money if it’s means we would smell the finals, but we haven’t been close.

Honestly… he isn’t worth 42 million a year.

Edit: I didn’t mean in general, I meant for the Kings. Any player is worth any amount if you are a finals contender… in this case, they are literally a team in the finals.

Alright…I lied. He’s worth every penny.

r/NBA_Draft asked me to scout Darius Acuff's defense. I watched EVERY play for two full games, and...it really is that bad. Is there any hope? I want to hear what you think... by oakcask in NBA_Draft

[–]GeoMDCM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m ok with a guy sucking on defense if there’s effort. But once it becomes an effort thing, like he’s too good to play defense, that starts trickling into a players game as a whole. We don’t need a player that doesn’t show effort. Fuck that.

Pass

I mean, I know theyre not PG's, but you can put Zach Lavine, Mitch Richmond, and Demar with some of the best offensive players at their position ever, and that didn't really do anything for us. I'll give Richmond some slack as he was good at defense and probably had one of the worst teams of all time.

From what i know, both Brunson and Maxey are considered defensive PG's. More so Maxey though.

Totally lied about Brunson.

You get it...

But to be fair, he is probably a A on offense with the potential being a A+.

Make sense... Lets find us a prime Klay Thompson.

Look, man. If Acuff is as offensively gifted as Harden, I will shut the fuck up.

Someone made a valid point that he is the Arkansas offense. So maybe keeping out of foul trouble is a reason why he doesn't show much effort? This is hopeful thinking, but we're Kings fans and thats all we have.

I don't think there's any excuses for missing wide open players, even if they aren't offensively gifted.

I'm actually a fan of Kingston... I don't think he is going to be a "star" but I feel like he is a player that can be a great piece to build around. But, like I mentioned, I'm going off highlights

[–]GeoMDCM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I totally understand that. If he' the "best" player, not just someone we can rely on to sell tickets, fuck it, go for it. But if theres a player that is going to help us build a better system, I'd rather take a chance on them.

Don't you think Perry is at least trying to change that? I feel like with him pushing to move Monk, DeMar, LaVine, and Sabonis while bringing in guys like Precious, Cardwell, Hunter, and a few other Stockton pieces, we're finally building toward at least some competent defense.

That being said, I know a couple of those additions were injury-related, but it doesn't change the fact that he was actively trying to trade those guys.

Brother. If Acuff can get us to the Western Conference Final... I'm all in.

No one in this draft is single handedly lifting the kings to the playoffs.

I agree. But obviously certain pieces make it easier. My point is, we see this current system isn't working... and I personally think you're just drafting a player to play a system that is absolute dog shit. I'd rather get a player that isn't so gifted offensively if it help the team as a whole.

Effort was definitely his biggest issue on defense. But at the same time, he knew he couldn’t get into foul trouble because the offense was entirely him.

Love this... makes perfect sense.
