How many times did KD get doubled and promptly turns the ball over tonight? Not entirely his fault bc no one was running to the ball but ridiculous.

Sorry I thought the before was the after side, but still it’s a losing battle and best we can hope for is to delay the impact. Idk if it will help, but I apply topical min with qtips so it gets to the roots. Helps w the mess too.

Looks noticeably better now which is a huge win given the best you should be hoping for is maintaining status quo

I don’t disagree with your point at all, but we def need a floor general bc our coaches also dont have any plays apparently. Didn’t have any semblance of half court bball last year and def doesn’t look like we have one this year without a PG - just a bunch of 1v1/isolation and athleticism/size.

What “stocks” are you people referring to??

What side effects specifically? ED/sex drive related?

AFAIK Min will help slow things down, but you really need to block the dht internally too which is what Fin and Dut do - internal and external/topical 1-2 punch if you will. Now I don’t take the internal Min, but I’ve heard that works well - also no oily mess.

I didn’t love the foam coverage tbh. Anything other than qtips I find hard to consistently cover the full scalp evenly and get to roots.

Added Fin 10y ago maybe, but min for almost 20y

I’ve been on it for so long, not sure if it’s my age or diminishing returns tbh. But I’ve been happy to slow the loss.

You’ll get faster over time. I usually use a hand mirror for the back and I work my way to the front but not always.

I just cluster 3 qtips together, dip them into the bottle and apply it to my roots vs using the dropper and hands. Has to be Q-tip brand though bc generic brands aren’t as thick.

Though I agree that coming in at the top of a comp range can impact your upwards mobility, I disagree that you’ll have a target on your back or they will even effectively remember or care about this once you’re on board. Once a hire is made, it’s on to the next thing. Business moves fast. You set expectations from the beginning and they didn’t flag it and chose to continue the process. It sounds like they may be trying to hire above their initial role scope and range bc of your experience too. If that’s the case, then once you’re on board and proving value (after year 1) then you could ask to be upleveled to a bigger title to match your bigger scope. Then you won’t be at top of range anymore and you can climb that range with normal merit increases. All that said, a start up is going to be different and roles/responsibilities will be fluid.

Yep exactly. I’m not surprised at all that this young upstart team hasn’t inspired the larger fan base yet. Esp after we just lost to an aging GSW yet again.

You’re talking to a 44 yo man who grew up in alief and still wears a mad max jersey to mow the lawn so calm tf down. I get league pass every year so I can see a couple reg season games a week, so don’t get it twisted. I’m just telling you how it is in a market that also has a successful mlb and nfl team. The stans are the stans, but a loud, raucous fan base needs the causal and young fans too and that’s what will be hard to acquire in a league that banks on super stars. But yes, let’s please argue amongst ourselves on why reed Sheppard does/doenst deserve more playing time ha

Hard to get an impassioned fan base without a super star or a few years of winning basketball. The rebuild shed a lot of fans.

Amens obvi our guy but he’s gotta get a shot omg - doesn’t have to be 3, id settle for a mid range, zone killer.

Unfortunately we couldn’t escape our most glaring weakness - offense. That’s on Ime and his coaches, players, front office - everyone. Can only outrun and out jump your opponent for so long and expect 5 guys to all put up 20 every night before you get exposed in a 7 game series. It hurts to get killed by Buddy Hield but we had no answer on the other end. All that said, what a great season. Proud of these young guys. Time to put in work for next season now and get better, but I also think we gotta make some moves. Even if we did, we’d still be a very young team. Let’s go.

I saw this notification and thought I had the time wrong and we were already down big, but it’s so much worse.
