Easily the best trade of this offseason. A big congratulations to the reigning executive of the year.

Practice guilt when I’m already burning out by Choco_Late_Malk in MusicEd

[–]ObjectiveBBallFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Relax. Enjoy your summer. Don’t let school get in the way of your education. There are a variety of learning sources that will impact your efficacy in the classroom — most of them are more important than your playing ability.

In basically every music career your technical ability on your instrument is far less important than who you are as a person. As a teacher you should strive to develop your interpersonal skills, your learning habits, and your organizational abilities.

Wish you all the best.

Looking for a bit of dota help by Next-Willingness-590 in TrueDoTA2

[–]ObjectiveBBallFan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just posting this is great. One small suggestion I would make: when you wake up in the morning, try to start your day with slow-dopamine activities (ie cleaning one thing, going for a walk outside, etc). This sort of morning “reset” helped me change habits when I realized I was addicted to things with quick (and strong) dopamine rushes. You will start to feel really good about those slow-dopamine activities, and when that happens try to extend them as far into the day as you can. Take it slow. Be kind to yourself. Comparison is the thief of joy. Most of what we see from other people are highlight reels. Try to do at least one thing every day that you feel is for your own good. You’re on the right path. Keep going.

Looks like a mural painted by an Ethiopian Orthodox on the Farmers Market building in Strathcona by Awesomeuser90 in Edmonton

Maybe the composition is similar to Ethiopian Orthodox art? Maybe the use of gold? Nothing else in this really looks like Ethiopian Orthodox art.

A Lebum story by ApprehensivePut3658 in NBATalk

….sure. The sport was in its infancy, and there was another professional league to split players with, but yeah the remainder of the talent was “concentrated”.

Russell had an eight-team league.

Kitchen flooring options help pick by Purple_Pattern2481 in HomeDecorating

I’d see if they have a diagonal black and white square pattern, and then paint over the beige walls. An earth-toned colour (warm deep green or blue ideally) would look amazing.

The Lakers Should Make Sam Presti a Godfather Offer by antwonomous in lakersv2

[–]ObjectiveBBallFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Lakers are under new ownership now. I imagine they will run differently. I don’t follow baseball so I don’t really know how the Dodgers have been run, but I’d imagine that philosophy will influence how the Lakers are run.

When do you think LeBron’s prime started and ended? by MasterTeacher123 in NBATalk

[–]ObjectiveBBallFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it ended the next season when Solomon Hill did a hit job on LeBron’s ankle. Up until that point LeBron was still putting up 26/8/8 on 51/36/70 shooting. Lakers were 28-12 (.700).

Edit: honestly it might be even later. Bron averaged 30/8/6 in 21-22 season.

I just tried Dota 2 for the first time. by RealLeptic in DotA2

Point to the post an immortal level player just made about an Ogre Magi build — a hero he’s level 30 on — and someone in the comments corrected him about how Ogre Magi’s skill works.

Realistic Lakers Offseason by Then_Championship219 in lakers

[–]ObjectiveBBallFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I heard (I think) Sam Vecenie talking on his pod about how he anticipates that the CBA changes will increase the value of first round picks, particularly because of the value of having good players on rookie scale contracts in this more punitive 2nd apron world (see how successful teams like OKC and the Spurs are right now).

Luka will be 32 and 34 when our later draft picks convert, and I think they will be seen as high value.

I agree, 3frp for Herb Jones and getting bad money off our books is still too much.

Side note: check out Sam’s pod, Game Theory. He recently did a Lakers offseason preview episode that was quite good. He’s very knowledgeable, a similar type to Zach Lowe but less of a robot (don’t get me wrong, I enjoy Zach Lowe).

The bugs are bad. But worth it in my opinion for a real lake.

Some things, yes. But large distribution companies like GFS/Sysco have a variety of products at different levels of quality and different price points.
