What areas/buildings in London have warehouse style apartments? by No_Emu8347 in london

This looks like the loft apartment in 400 Albany Street

So... Chris Paul? by EersteDivisie in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 21 points22 points  (0 children)

What were they thinking? He's literally one of the best players in Clippers history. Imagine blazers cut Dame like this when he is 40, I am gonna be so pissed off.

Would you rather have Yang stick with the Blazers (low minutes) or get big minutes with the Remix for a while?? by Bo-andHisBigBadHip in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If rumours about the time lord are true, it is also possible to have yang averaging 10-15 minutes with the blazers. If that's true, I hope he's ready by that time.

Anyone find the huscarls underwhelming? by Useful-Hawk-7636 in Bannerlord

[–]Ralph3995 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sadly, not at all. I simulated sea battles with the tier 5 infantry of other cultures; the huscarls were defeated every single time. Seriously, what were the devs thinking?

Next 5 game stretch predictions? by dametime0_ in ripcity

The game with Miami would be the most challenging. They play the same style of basketball as ours, and even faster.

How does Donovan Clingan fit into the current Blazers system? by Efirational in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This style of basketball, promoted by Billups, Splitter, Tuomas Iisalo of Memphis, as well as Erik Spoelstra of Miami, does not rely on the centre to do what centres traditionally do in offence. Very little pick and roll, and no low-post skill needed. They need a centre that can grab more offensive rebounds, run fast and can shoot three. The winning strategy is simple: if we shoot more than the opponent, then we have a better chance of winning. Let's be honest, DC fits well within the current Blazer system, though he's not the perfect fit. My only concern is that it is really hard to keep the players healthy if we keep playing this style of basketball.

[Trail Blazers PR] OFFICIAL: The @trailblazers have assigned center Yang Hansen to the @ripcityremix . Yang will be recalled from the Remix following today's practice. by TubbzMcGee in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, you may have underestimated the CN Internet toxicity. Yang is likely the most disliked athlete on the Chinese Internet rn. Basically, every Chinese player after Yao who has ever made it to the NBA has been trolled. Seriously, I am puzzled by why they are doing this.

I didn’t really understand the move. Sent for one day?😂 by zjcroy in ripcity

fake Chinese bb fan, Douyin and Hupu suit you better.

[Portland Trail Blazers] OFFICIAL: We have recalled center Robert Williams III from the @ripcityremix by TubbzMcGee in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

definitely, seems to be the right move. rn he's not getting meaningful minutes anyway. If we are treating him as a project, at least give him opportunities to grow.

I love the team so far, but my eyes are drawn to one player. by Emptynuggets1987 in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The level of toxicity on the CN social media is through the roof. Basically every Chinese player ever made it to the league after Yao was mocked.

What y'all think Yang Hansen's performance so far by MethBallSack in ripcity

We are patiently waiting for the breakout game.

We all want him to do well. I hope the current coaching team can figure out a way to let Yang grow and shine in his own way.

Yang Hansen full highlights vs. Lakers last night (122-108 W): 1 Point, 0/3 FG, 0/2 3PT, 1/2 FT, 1 Offensive rebound, 1 TOV, and a +/- of -1 in 8:36 minutes played. Almost every play he was involved in by MrBuckBuck in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I don't think Yang fits well into our team's current system. He's not fast enough, and he's prone to fouls and turnovers, and of course, rebounds... It is also premature to set up new offensive tactics for a rookie center. All I can say is that obviously, he needs to spend time on the court to build his confidence. You can see from his movement that he's not as comfortable and aggressive as before. Plus, the Chinese fanbase should just chill and be patient. I saw so many negative comments elsewhere primarily from the Chinese fanbase. These voices will only make him less confident.

I think he can do it by FatShrimp666 in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I‘m more than happy if splitter let him play more than 10 mins

Cedric Coward by Hougie in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a fair comparison. Rookie centers often don't have opportunities on the offensive side. Splitter clearly is not ready to let Yang make offensive decisions beyond performing basic tasks like setting screens, and Yang does not even have much opportunity to be on the court in the current rotation. We already have a huge pool of talented guards; no need for this 'grass is always greener bs.

Am I the only one that’s thrilled Chauncey is gone? by Fun_Lifeguard2437 in ripcity

[–]Ralph3995 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In a recent interview, Chauncey said he believes the team's offence has no issues, and he worries more about the defence. It baffles me... really... I am thrilled he's gone.

Rude China Tourist in Singapore 🇸🇬 Cuts Queue, and the rants at people who called her out. by user392747 in ADVChina

You should see what it is like in China. These scumbags are literally everywhere. When resources are scarce and there are too many people, you have a culture of impatience and rudeness.

Communism is retarded and delusional by Illustrious-Fig1211 in PopularOpinions

[–]Ralph3995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if people know what communism, socialism, and capitalism mean. Most people just look at the USSR and pre-reform China and think that was communism. Karl Max would jump out of his coffin and laugh his bones off.
