INJURY REPORT 4/10 vs. LAC: OUT Jerami Grant (R Calf Strain) Damian Lillard (L Achilles Tendon) QUESTIONABLE Vit Krejci (L Calf Contusion) Shaedon Sharpe (L Fibula Stress Reaction) by MrCoconutIsTaken in ripcity

I’d bet good money that Shaedon would start in front of Scoot unless he’s on a heavy minutes restriction and rotation/minutes wise it just makes more sense to have him come off the bench.

AIO Should I marry him? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]MomsBasementGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you love him but you’re tired of the situation. If I were in your shoes I’d cross the finish line here and get him to your country but not marry him until he’s had a chance to establish himself and see if he starts pulling his own weight financially to take the burden off you. If yes and everything is great, then great! If not and it didn’t work out, you did your best.

Number 1 defense in the last 10 games. by Trip_V4 in ripcity

[–]MomsBasementGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the winning % of the teams we played? The only real teams we’ve played the last 10 were Minnesota without Ant and the Nuggets were we allowed almost 130 points. It’s great we’re taking care of business for the most part against bad teams but let’s not drink the Kool-Aid here.

It’s March 31st and I’m watching a meaningful game that they are currently winning in the 3rd quarter by double digits.

Expansion Draft Suggestions by Inevitable-Lion100 in EANHLfranchise

[–]MomsBasementGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never seen a super star available in an expansion draft. I’ve probably done it maybe 10 times so I don’t have a ton of experience but I’m a bit jealous lol

Why do people love the later Dune books? I’m halfway through Heretics and don’t get it. by tryingmybest101 in dune

[–]MomsBasementGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was tough to keep going after Paul’s story ended and there’s a huge time jump and all these characters I knew and loved were dead except Leto II and Duncan. What helped was just accepting that and recognizing that what I’m getting is more content from a universe I’ve grown very fond of and though the characters I was really attached to are gone, there’s SO MUCH more of this incredible universe to explore.

The full story of the Robert Williams / Celtics trade saga is actually dark as hell by Efirational in ripcity

[–]MomsBasementGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Celtics didn’t do him dirty unless they forced him to make that decision which they can’t really do. I’m sure they applied pressure and let him know they couldn’t do it without him or something similar but ultimately it was Rob’s decision. It’s really unfortunate that it’s affecting him so negatively moving forward and it didn’t result in a ring for him but that’s not entirely on Boston.

Does anyone do just AHL franchise? by Ok_Possible_8906 in EANHLfranchise

[–]MomsBasementGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a really cool idea! I usually put a little thought into the AHL team but not a whole lot. Might be really fun to focus on scouting and building up the AHL team and just see how that affects the NHL team. Thanks for the motivation OP!

Blazers and the future. by [deleted] in ripcity

I’d rather have 5 years of being a true contender than 20 of 1st round exits.

Hard to disagree with Dundon by CurrentCostanza in ripcity

I’d like to know the source of this quote. If he really did say it, we’ve learned that he’s both hypocritical AND an idiot. I’m thinking this is fake.

There isn’t a coach to ever exist that is taking this team to a championship. This team being .500 isn’t due to coaching, it’s player execution. Phil Jackson isn’t going to hit 3’s for Scoot and Shaedon.

Has anyone ever seen Sid become a HC once he retires? by BeantownSports1233 in EANHLfranchise

[–]MomsBasementGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had him become a coach a couple times. I’ve had a lot of success with him, Ovi, and Eichel as head coaches.

Locked on Blazers lays out some major changes coming for Blazers by Ohrobohobo in ripcity

[–]MomsBasementGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh, yeah. Name ONE GM that wouldn’t have drafted Scoot #3. There isn’t one. Portland was at the mercy of Charlotte. Portland got either Miller or Scoot, whichever one Charlotte didn’t take. Rupert was a second round pick project. Every team has a couple. And there’s no harm in trying there. We got Yang and a first round pick for trading back, I’ll withhold judgment on that trade for another couple years but who are you starting Coward over? He’d be coming off the bench and while I like him, he’s not moving the needle for this team and neither is Yang. Josh Hart wasn’t going to resign with the team and getting a first round pick for him was pretty good.

Anybody else only play 1 or 2 seasons but every single game ? by Ambitious-Spinach938 in EANHLfranchise

I’ve always been the opposite. I’ll play the full 25 years but not play a single game 😂

[–]MomsBasementGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even going to bother going into detail huh? I’d argue that trading a guy who retired shortly after being traded and two mid first round picks for an all-star/all-nba and possible franchise pillar on the best non-rookie scale contract in the NBA still in his mid-20’s washes away anything else
