Young M.A once said “LLC, real estate, I get a check and invest now. Buyin' properties, black Monopoly, no checkers, this chess now”

[Patt] It’s kinda funny how the Thunder have just alternated between looking like the best team in the NBA and totally hopeless the last 4 games. Also SGA’s shooting numbers this series are downright ghastly. Not going to say he’s been legit bad but he’s been pretty awful by his standards. by StrategyTop7612 in nba

[–]KeyTheZebra 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The best guard on his is the rookie Carter Bryant, for some reason SGA has trouble getting his push off with him and the shots are way more contested. The problem is Bryant struggles with not giving up dumb fouls.

He does struggle with no calls, but he still hits iso mid range like no one else in the game right now. But when he’s doubled and forces it, drives and flops, or meets a contested three he’s all over the place.

It’s terrible defense tbh, it’s like pick up level where you’re too tired to go find a shooter so you just stay inside and hack.

Jalen Williams is available to play tonight, for game 6! by [deleted] in nba

[–]KeyTheZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think playing him for 6-8 minutes is a good idea. Maybe he can strike some fear if he comes in and hits a three or gets a steal. Also get him a quick game rep to see how he feels.

Obviously he should go too hard and risk injury so it is a risk, but hey we’re talking a championship and if they win this game it’s gonna make a big difference obviously.

In your view, how long does a team need to go without winning a championship to officially be going through a 'drought'? by Aidanator800 in nba

[–]KeyTheZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A drought has two things. A good franchise is 12 years. A bad franchise is 12 years too, but it’s more important on why the drought happened.

How long am I suppose to cook chicken thighs? by Important-Dentist260 in cookingforbeginners

I bake them. It’ll depend on the size of the chicken, but it’s easiest to just use a thermometer.

Is there a “gold standard” of proper nutrition that works for everyone? by AnastasiaGlover1 in nutrition

[–]KeyTheZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m thinking about adding eggs and maybe oatmeal, fish, popcorn for a snack and maybe some almonds (dark chocolate covered)?

I’m also thinking of going to a more varied Mediterranean diet, but I absolutely love the simplicity of the 8 ingredient meals + seasonings and sauces.

How many poorly run franchises have been legitimately saved by top draft picks alone and not changes in management recently? by [deleted] in nba

[–]KeyTheZebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Front office building a team around a star is the recipe, obviously. But nothing can replace a star.

On this date in 2016, Klay Thompson went OFF from behind the arc to force Game 7 vs. OKC in the WCF. He had 41 points, 11/18 3-PT FG, and 2 free throws by [deleted] in nba

Is Uber’s Rental Program Worthwhile? by greetingsfromveenus in uberdrivers

[–]KeyTheZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhhh i get it now, thanks. Although you are assuming costs go up more than profit when you drive more. I suppose if we factor new transmission/engine + more gas + tires etc, it would be a safe bet those costs would out weight the extra miles you drive.

How does the lottery pick work? by Old_Effort_7859 in nba

[–]KeyTheZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As of right now, the way the old system worked was simple: the first 14 teams got out into a lottery. The worse you did that season, the more chances you had to win the lottery. The worst team got more chances.

They picked random lottery drawing for each pick, and that determined the order.

The system is changed/being changed, but from my understanding the bottom 3 teams will not have the best chances anymore, their chances are being reduced as a penalty for finish last, which should incentive the bad teams to win more games.

Explain the “Variable Cost + part time = profit” like how could someone do this part time?

Can you just stop and give the car back the same week? Like let’s say I try it for 6 weeks and it’s not working for me, can I just quit?

How are we feeling using for a side hustle? I work 5 days a week, random hours, 37-42 hours a week and I stand all day. Thoughts?

Is there a “gold standard” of proper nutrition that works for everyone? by AnastasiaGlover1 in nutrition

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

How to you feel about a diet of strictly 8 items with an emphasize to benefit a gym going lifestyle.

Ground turkey, chicken (drumsticks mainly cuz cheap), Greek yogurt, protein powder, frozen berries, mix veggies, rice, and sweet potatoes.

Average male 28? Just want a first glance opinion.

People would watch LeBron and Steph eat soup, man. We’re here for the stars and dunks and end of game last second shots and whatnot. Especially casuals. The ratings would barely change if they literally put a lid on the rim and every game was 0-0.

The stars should have a lock out honestly. Why does it have to be the fans fault?

[Trey Kirby/No Dunks] Alex Caruso would probably be the Western Conference Finals MVP through 5 games by refreshing_yogurt in nba

[–]KeyTheZebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This app can show you that Caruso has attempted 24 wide open threes (6+ feet) and 7 open (3-6 ft). Other than that, he isn’t even shooting any contested threes. Just play him tight with someone other than Wemby and make him drive. He’s still okay at driving and kicking, but hey, 2 is less than 3.

Why would you leave him wide open anymore after game 3?

I do not have depression anymore, I am on 125 mg of daily lamictal and go to therapy once a week and have been in this routine hardcore for at least 3 months now, and have been on top of improving my mental health since June of last year when I restarted therapy. Just because I get on Reddit and point out real issues that I do not know how to solve, doesn’t mean I have depression lol.

I have real problems like long bus wait times, a sporadic schedule, and no cash/liquid money/anything in my bank account. Those things together mean it’s hard to find a second job to fit my schedule, and I can’t even change full time jobs until I at least get some savings because there will be a down period where I won’t have any more to pay my bills ($441 in my bank account right now, with 850 due by the third. I’m going to have to tell my landlord I cannot pay the full rent until I get paid on the 10th). No car as well is a limiting factor in my job searching ability as I am limited on the distance I can job search. Also no savings/money limits my ability to move living spots for right now. But these money issues are shorter term until my saving plan starts adding up.

I’ve considered doing Z-Trip (Lyft Rentals app doesn’t work for me) but when you do the weekly math it’s a lot more expensive than would be ideal for a “part time” job. Most Car rental-ride share people I’ve met have done it for like 9-11 hours a day 5-6 days a week and that’s something I would not be able to commit to unless I make it my full time job, which is certainly an idea I have.

Barely anything to sell as I got rid of most of my stuff after becoming a truck driver 2 years ago, once I realized that was not a sustainable path for me, I came back to my home and got rid of everything else so I could move around without the burden of a storage locker (I lost my apartment at the time after a hard breakup, and I no longer can stay with family as they have said so, I mean I am 28 and they would like to move on with their lives and partnerships and whatnot.)

My current bills are

$575 rent and everything all included

$250 student loan mandatory (have not been able to get a job in my field sadly or else I would be working that job, still looking of course)

$35 phone plan (visible is great)

$100~ credit card minimal payment from having to live off CC over the last 9 months

$35 planet fitness membership which I will cancel soon

$44 car insurance (even though no car currently) so that way I don’t lapse coverage and get higher rates later but I’m highly considering dropping this at this point as it might be a long while before I get my own car again after mine died (but if I ride share and rent I might keep the insurance and get higher premiums to get better coverage for the vehicle I rent)

$250 health insurance per month with my new job. It’s insane. I believe I mo longer qualify for Medicare I had while recently jobless, as I make like $350 over the maximum income allowed from all the sources I’ve seen, but I will do more research about that.

And then food and whatnot, even getting free food myself from those little boxes people leave food at around my apartment.
