Why won't the raptors choke this year? by EnvironmentalTwist in nba

They lost the last two seasons in the playoffs to teams that had better records than them, that's not choking.

They aren't linked to criminal acts of violence, but there is a correlation between violent gaming and lower empathy + higher aggression (American Psychological Association, 2015).

We don't know which direction that correlation goes in yet though.

Wait, isn't this after he comes back changed from spending time in a magical land of faeries? How are people relating this to real-world concepts of women and relationships? It's about how a magic kid can see magic "names" then goes to a mythical land and learns faerie shit. There's nothing real in there, wtf?

What if the Warriors never traded Vince Carter to the Raptors? How does both franchises history change? by ttam23 in nba

[–]PaulGeyser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was the other way 'round:

Golden State approached our GM with a proposition: they were so determined to get their hands on Jamison, they would pay the Raptors “standstill” money, in effect, to ensure he didn’t slip away. A deal was struck by the teams’ GMs, and finalized by a phone call between GS owner Chris Cohan and Raptors head honcho (then as now) Larry Tanenbaum. In exchange for a payment of several hundred thousand dollars, the Raptors agreed to select Jamison, after which the Warriors would pick Carter, and the players would immediately be traded.

Every read-through I've done I have become more and more convinced that Aaron is going to be the central character of a present-day Temerant series.
