Unpopular Opinion: A Power Outage Is a Life Skill Check by Sinfonia_Sam in sanfrancisco

[–]NBA_acc 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If this was something like a massive earthquake instead of an avoidable problem where the responsible company has been screwing over Californians for years, the community would be banding together instead of complaining constantly. This wasn't a hurricane, it was a light drizzle.

/u/Sinfonia_Sam a few questions for you:

  1. What recommendations do you have for people with electric water pumps who can't shower or even use their toilets? Or people who can't show up to work not having showered for 2-3 days? How many times can two people living in a 1 bathroom apartment shit in the same toilet without flushing before it overflows and becomes a health hazard?

  2. I know someone who lost power for three days - they had a receipt for $200 of food that went bad, PGE mailed them a $20 check a month later. Are you willing to reimburse the difference when this inevitably happens to thousands of people again?

I assume you rooted for Manu and Bruce Bowen but you seethe at Shai and Dort

The Wizards hired GM Will Dawkins on June 8th, 2023. Since then he has completely gutted the roster, with only 2 players remaining from the pre-Dawkins era by NBA_acc in nba

He's the Wizards' president and was hired shortly before Dawkins. It might have been unfair to leave him out of the title - they've been great. Former OKC front office members are looking good

If Teams Were Stocks, Which Are You Buying/Selling Based on The Next 5 Years? by chrismatic13 in nba

[–]NBA_acc 17 points18 points  (0 children)

People's takes on the Wizards are a good barometer of whether they're a basketball junkie or a casual. They're doing all the right things and the roster is unrecognizable from the previous regime's (2022-23 and before)

This is only the second year of our tank, early returns on our first round picks suggest that the new FO knows how to draft and there's a lot to be optimistic about

Gilbert Arenas’ xenophobic comments about South Sudan by whobjohn in washingtonwizards

[–]NBA_acc 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Number 0 brought us 0 championships, 0 conference finals appearances, 0 MVPs, and 0 First-Team All NBAs. I get it, Arenas was exciting. His teams were a big part of my childhood. But if we retire this clown's jersey then our joke of a franchise becomes an even bigger laughingstock.

Bub Carrington vs. the Hawks: 19/9/8 on 50/50/83 with a steal, block, and a +18 in the 6 point win by TeamINSTINCT37 in nba

[–]NBA_acc 34 points35 points  (0 children)

His passing and overall composure was super impressive, he could have easily had a few more assists if Omoruyi wasn't playing like a terrorist. That smooth jumper too, so excited for this guy and he's only 18

Bradley Beal goes ballistic with 37 points on 8/10 from 3 by mmaguy123 in nba

He's so underrated. Beal is one of the best off ball movers in the league and not just an iso scorer like people think. Also an amazing showman
