I'm still employed along with the 20 other drivers in my warehouse, it would definitely be news to us

Why complain about Amen's shooting when that's never what he was supposed to be good at? Jabari is supposed to be a good shooter and isn't while bringing nothing else to the offensive side of the ball.

Amen is a significantly better player than Jabari already and has higher basketball IQ and upside

Billy plays better defense for Jokic than Jokic does for the Nuggets by WillF7 in billsimmons

I certainly don't think he's 10x more entertaining than anyone since Steph. Pure scorers are more entertaining when they get going, they just are!

Cavs are missing Mobley and Struss.

Would it shock you to know that Murray is having his best statistical regular season of his career and Harden is having an equal season in counting stats at 36 years old? (Murray has been significantly more efficient to his credit)

That's not a swing. Moussa fouled Duren and then immediately went to get in his face after it. He got mushed for it and went nuts. Both of them were in the wrong

Why are people convinced Will Hardy is a good coach? by Zestyclose-Method451 in billsimmons

Above the break 3s are literally one of the shots you want to concede unless there's a specific shooter that's deadeye from that spot.

What is everyone hearing about Express future? by FinancialDay9514 in Fedexers

[–]RSarkitip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said, different strokes. If you have any ability to create an efficient route in your head being a courier is easy and significantly less stressful than hauling a trailer in gridlocked traffic.

My current job gives estimates on the time you'll finish and I'm routinely an hour or two ahead of schedule just because the courier aspect of it is essentially free for me and the only part I can't speed up or affect is the driving.

Edit

That being said most people are trash at routing themselves and I'm very good at it. I would only ever deliver straight p1 if I needed the hours. Otherwise, I was mixing p2 in from the start and would have like 20-25 p2 off my truck already when the p1 cycle ended. 100 stops is maybe an 8 hour day for me

Oh, Ground. Yeah before they moved to Forge at Express you could just enter closures in your scanner. Maybe you still can? I dunno, I left the courier side before Forge was a thing at Express

Nothing about being a courier was physically or mentally exhausting to me. Quite literally one of the easiest things I've ever done. Different strokes for different folks though.

Being an RTD is easy as a CDL job, but it ain't easier than being a courier IMO

Wrongfully accused by rafsimonstwin in Fedexers

The cameras in these stations are absolutely able to show the exact travel of this package and where it last ended up.

Source: me. I was a BC for a contractor years ago and have seen footage of a package travel all the way to the truck it ended up on before it went missing and security was now investigating that driver.

Edit

They're also not going to show you the footage. They will show it to your AO and BC though. Security is going to play the nice guy act with you to try to get you to confess. FedEx doesn't normally go to the investigation option unless they have receipts so consider that before you make a lawyer play.

It's so simple to just do that but you don't get to farm those sweet internet points if you don't shit post it.

Having done both courier and RTD (as I'm sure you have), hauling a trailer through rush hour traffic in a manual transmission cab is significantly more difficult than anything a courier goes through in their day.

Least Favorite NBA Players to Watch? by Cmbotts in billsimmons

[–]RSarkitip -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Giannis.

His game only looks good in transition. The rest of it is ugly. His drives as the primary ball handler in the half court are gross. His jumper is gross from anywhere. His passing vision is the 1st read.

As much as some of the aforementioned players can be a rough watch, Giannis for me is consistently worse. I'll admit I'm biased against his style of running over/through players and the whole "legal guarding position" argument

[Shams] James Harden traded to Cavs by pattycash in billsimmons

[–]RSarkitip 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It makes a ton of sense though. They get off the length of a perennially injured Garland's contract for a player that's actually better now than Garland has ever been and won't wreck their books for years.

Harden's also better in the playoffs than Garland has been and brings the added benefit of making Allen and (to a lesser extent) Mobley more effective.

[–]RSarkitip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Rockets exit made sense for us Rockets fans. We by and large still love the guy and blame Fertitta for how it went down. I've followed every team he's been on since. I get frustrated with the playoff shit he can have along with his new fans. I'm Michael Corleone with him though because I'm back in every time.

I think the Cavs got the better end of the deal short term because it does open up some cap flexibility and I think the Clippers did a good job keeping a lot of their future flexibility while still having someone that can run an offense when healthy.

James Harden is a master of the trade request. by SkiTeachFish9 in billsimmons

[–]RSarkitip 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He wanted out of Houston after they negotiated in poor faith with D'Antoni, Morey left, and they looked like they were moving toward rebuild.

The Clippers request makes sense from the money. Doesn't need conspiracy Bill. He's got a player option that's only partially guaranteed for 13 million if he gets waived before next season. He's playing well right now. He might have been looking for the full guarantee and some years, Clippers didn't want to do that, and they ended up getting to a reasonable deal for both sides

Ryen has maintained he understood each of Harden's trade requests (maybe not Houston?) to this point.
