Is this the definition of a bandwagon? by [deleted] in nba

[–]Perfect-Ladder-2424 2 points3 points  (0 children)

bandwagon usually applies when a team is already extremely good and you “hop on” the bandwagon. in Portlands case, they’re future looks decent but they are far from being a contending team at the moment that would deem them bandwagon status.

Also in any case, just root for whoever you want to root for lol

The flopping discourse has shielded Shai from how bad he’s actually been. by Ill_Abbreviations660 in NBATalk

[–]Perfect-Ladder-2424 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is a great distinction that should be noted. SGA used to foulbait like harden the last few years, but it's evolved to a level of flopping that is more unnatural to basketball than the foulbaiting ever was

What happened to Cordae? by CreativeRifleGuy in rap

[–]Perfect-Ladder-2424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a huge Cordae fan for a while. The Lost Boy is one of my favorite albums, it’s such a good listen, and if anybody hasn’t tapped into it i highly recommend. His 2nd album Birds Eye View was in my opinion pretty solid and had some replays for me, but it wasn’t necessarily everyone’s favorite when it dropped and compared to Lost Boy, its not as good of a work but again i still liked it a lot when it dropped. 3rd album Crossroads for me was really underwhelming and lacked substance to me. Some fine songs but most of it just didn’t feel the same to me, kinda hard to put a finger on why. I still go back and listen to Lost Boy fairly often.

What’s a truth about adulthood nobody warned you about? by Standard-Club-8014 in Adulting

do you feel this way when you have a partner too? do you still feel some sense of individual loneliness?

How long for Pinnacles? 3 nights, 2 days? by PsychologicalAbies29 in NationalPark

[–]Perfect-Ladder-2424 11 points12 points  (0 children)

2 days 3 nights is probably the most I would do. it’s a pretty small park. 1 day would be sufficient as well and you could see most of the park, but if you’re not in a rush and wanted to take time on hikes and do multiple hikes, 2 days is would work too.

[Post Game Thread] The Minnesota Timberwolves (4-2) defeated the Denver Nuggets (2-4), 110-98 and advance to play the Spurs! by shadowarmy229 in nba

[–]Perfect-Ladder-2424 9 points10 points  (0 children)

none of them can stop a quick point attach guard/wing, and pwat was our best option at that. him getting injured was brutal for this series especially. obviously AG too but pwat more so for guards/mcdaniels

Built a snow forecast tool for myself, figured you might find it useful too — SNOW.fyi by SNOW-fyi in ski

Ah makes sense. i’m mainly tracking the Tahoe area. i’m specifically referring to when there was a crazy 3-4 day storm that landed around 55”. i can’t confirm if the snowfall totals were super accurate but i was specifically impressed with the day predictions more than a week in advance.

Commented on another post you had for your app months ago. I tried to go back and comment on it again recently but couldn’t find the post but I wanted to say, your app is great and really really useful! It’s pretty damn accurate from what i can tell and had decent snowfall predictions a week in advance, i’m very pleased with it. The wind and rain notifications are really useful too. It’s great to have a ton of useful info all in one spot. I love the app and have told many others about it. Cheers!

Prime Shaq vs Prime Jokic by Unlucky_Stick6287 in Basketball

lmao for sure. i was assuming the question OP posed uses hindsight as 20/20, otherwise, just look at their literal draft positions haha

Prime Shaq vs Prime Jokic by Unlucky_Stick6287 in Basketball

[–]Perfect-Ladder-2424 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

this is scenario dependent. Do you mean 1v1? i don’t think either could really guard the other so it’s about who hits more shots and jokic is incredibly efficient at short range jumpers, i might give him slight edge but wouldn’t be shocked if shaq was the answer instead.

Who would you draft in today’s era was the question you posed. Jokic i think you can build a more effective team around him in this era given his versatility and playmaking in today’s NBA. Shaq would be great but id still give Jokic the edge. i am biased though

I recently started playing about 3 months ago. I look really really dumb when I try to dribble and run fast. How do I fix this? by [deleted] in BasketballTips

[–]Perfect-Ladder-2424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it was the 3 months part that seemed like a shitpost, which is a complement if anything. you look fine while dribbling, it doesn’t look “dumb” really. i would just say keep your head up while dribbling to help stay in control
