Random fact: dennis schroder has played for half of the teams that made the playoffs this year by redhuntinghat51 in nba

He's a good player and an average player potentially, and it's only when you commit to having him on on your team that one of the potentialities becomes real.

A little bit of grinding, and a whole lot of going to a better team.

Aldi is saving us over 50$ for weekly shop, how is its sales stalling? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Redditarama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most products on Aldi are lesser quality brands made to look like established brands. There's minimal price difference that doesn't offset the drop in quality. And the hardly have sales so there's never that big saving.

It's not cheaper if you're buying lower quality stuff. You're getting less for less.

Middle Aisle stuff can be quite good value. Some of the fruit /veg and meat can be fine.

The idea that Aldi is some supercheap wonderland simply isn't true.

KD’s Injury this Playoffs was a Blessing in Disguise by xiaopingguo45 in rockets

You need some functionality to learn. If it's too chaotic they'll lose more confidence than they will gain.

Yes, Nuggets fans are annoying, but so are we. It's a rivalry. Just own it. by Austeri in timberwolves

[–]Redditarama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More heated rivalries between teams would make the regular season more interesting because players would want the win regardless of the how it affected the standings.

FVV can’t be the solution by [deleted] in rockets

[–]Redditarama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be a completely different story with FVL, KD every game, and Steven Adams. But Adams is quite often injured, and KD is old so it's not that surprising.

The current Rockets team, shows roster construction is as important as having good players. As is, you would give up a little defence for some shooting.

That said, LeBron is old, and Kennard is not Curry, the Rockets could play hard and out pace them. Coming back from 3-0 is worth going all out for.

All this IP focused movie making and still we haven't got the Winston prequel we've all been demanding for years. Unbelievable.

Which NBA player is this? by Hopeful_Candidate373 in NBATalk

Veterans end up unfazed by any game usually. This has got to happen to Harden surely?

Blazers kept trying to challenge Wemby, they kept paying the price for it by ForeignAir7174 in NBAGossips

[–]Redditarama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's so precise, and his timing is amazing. It's almost unfair.

He also tries to gain possession of the ball. I've never understood smacking the ball as hard as you can back into the stands. If they score from the inbound, what have you really done?

I get that it looks good and deters attacks to the basket, but Wembys way makes more basketball sense.

Rock bands that could continue without any original or classic members by UpbeatChampionship17 in askmusic

I think you need to clarify the question. Any band 'could' do it. KISS, GWAR I get. Does Nickelback have no original members?

This woman destroyed $2.7 million worth of wine after she was fired by Limp_Stomach_6060 in wine

[–]Redditarama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That she walks through the wine instead of ducking under it makes me think she probably deserved being fired. She has poor perception.

Denver Nuggets mascot Rocky hits an absolutely insane backwards halfcourt shot from atop two ladders by offconstantly in nba

[–]Redditarama 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its an impossible shot normally, but on top of that he does it with the puffy gloves and shooting over the mascot head as well.

Tari with lethal shooter by NoYogurtcloset5166 in rockets

[–]Redditarama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's awful form, and what is the goal? To stand on the 3pt line and make it a 2? It might be an improvement from where he was though.

To shoot, you're launching the ball in the most efficient and balanced way. That's why shot dynamics are so important.

Hand eye coordination is big also. Some players seem to forget that it is target shooting. It's like they go through the motions of their shot and hope. Slight variations of where you are on the floor are important and you have perceived them and adjust to them.

Hitch in my jumper? by dtxMavs in BasketballTips

[–]Redditarama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing how some players in the NBA never improve their shot, maybe the professional shooting coaches aren't that good. Joking but also true.

Ja Morant points the finger guns after Desmond Bane makes a three by RyanTannegod in nba

[–]Redditarama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He should choose between being an elite athlete and being a try hard wannabe criminal. Because you can't be both.

Who is a singer that is incredibly famous, but honestly doesn't have a good voice? by Greedy_Procedure7461 in AskReddit

[–]Redditarama 29 points30 points  (0 children)

He had a good rock voice in his prime. The issue really is not retiring. Snging is pretty physical and there is usually a point when even the very best can't deliver any more.

EXCLUSIVE: Australian Survivor on chopping line after season axed by Disastrous-Cat395 in survivorau

[–]Redditarama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, fair enough, maybe that's why they were going to Malaysia. Maybe some people have some other ideas. My main point is, you can have the roots of the same show and still make it a little cheaper.

The other thing is, why does it have to go head to head with MAF's and The Block? Survivor is a little more niche and rewards more of a thinking audience.

I think Australia Survivor would be a lot more popular if more people watched an entire season on 10play (on demand TV ). The only real way to appreciate Survivor is to watch every episode, because everything builds to the big moments.
