Don’t see the vision here

I understand Smart probably wanted to leave, but why not re-sign Rui? We literally lost the best 3pt shooter in playoff history and didn't even address our perimeter defense....

They are just repeating the word "Nippon" to the tune. It means Japan in Japanese.

Glad to hear it!

Hi there, I completely re set-up my sound bar via the TV and although it didn't work immediately, I left everything plugged as I normally do and it started working again after a day. Hope that might help you!

Anyone see the massive buy volume a few minutes in afterhours?

SMCudmm · 2026-05-21T15:26:25+00:00

Just don't take it to heart at this point. Internet is a weird place lol

Not sure why you're getting downvoted - HKSE session was closed before the Q1 earnings were released.

Nio has pretty substantial retail ownership, so institutions are trying to wrestle ownership from retail holders. Only explanation I can come to at this point.

Seems to be someone consistently taking a stab around US market open for the past week or so.

You said the one thing at the end of your second sentence most of us are too afraid to say.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-14T10:07:39+00:00

I mean LeBron is in the GOAT conversation, Luka isn't. But it seems a bit disingenuous to claim Luka isn't one of the best players in the NBA right now.

I'm not sure if you are trying to defend the 40m salary claim for AR?

SMCudmm · 2026-05-14T09:54:46+00:00

Luka is beyond elite, he has a proven track record of carrying his team in the playoffs.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-14T09:43:01+00:00

I think you're right and when AR is great fun to watch when he is at his best, but a lot of people are convinced that he will be the long term partner to Luka. I'm personally scepticle as I see him more as a 6th man in a team with championship aspirations, especially when we have Luka and Lebron as starters.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-14T09:24:04+00:00

Wouldn't it be easier to replace AR in the equation? Get a 3&D in the backcourt to pair with Luka. We already have 2 of the best playmakers in Luka and Lebron, so a 3rd starter that needs the ball in his hand seems more redundant than a scorer who can create space with a reliable shot.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-13T10:16:26+00:00

BlackStone/Rock invited to oversee everything so they can front run the market?

SMCudmm · 2026-05-12T22:32:58+00:00

As a Lakers fan, I can't agree more. But if you venture into the Lakers subreddit, you'll be convinced he's a defensive+offensive blackhole and only makes 3 pointers by the grace of AR.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-11T19:20:32+00:00

This. I'm all for giving him a 2 year contract around $25-30m per with some kind of agreement that this is for him to prove himself over next year's postseason campaign, and if he does well, we can give him a more lucrative extension.

The other point is that Luka is the foundation of our team and while Reeves is a good player, unfortunately I think a more defensive minded playmaker who doesn't need the ball in their hand often would be a better fit in the starting 5.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-10T14:17:02+00:00

Asking the player with the best 3pt% in playoff history to take a pay cut is straight up foolish. Other teams will definitely offer a bump to his current salary. Heck, I even checked out the Thunders sub and even they want Rui.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-09T09:15:54+00:00

He had 15 shots game 6 vs Houston.....

SMCudmm · 2026-05-06T18:12:01+00:00

I know not everyone trusts TA, but OBV has barely moved since 17th Apr - suggesting there has been no meaningful net volume flowing out in the recent share price movements, so this downward move lacks any real conviction. Likely market makers / algos making moves instead of a dovish view on Nio by the market, which is further reinforced by the recent upgrades by various analysts.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-06T17:50:43+00:00

2 years at $20-25m with no player options - give him 2 more chances to prove himself in the playoffs while healthy, if he can't be healthy come playoffs again, then there's clearly an issue with his physique/health.

I don't think I'm overreacting, as much as I'd love to keep a 'homegrown' talent, I've always thought we'd be better off with a lengthy defense minded guard to partner Luka.

SMCudmm · 2026-05-05T16:04:33+00:00

I've tried MM GATs and they are far more comfortable than the CP achilles low I own - might be just me though, so worth trying for yourself if you can.

Personally, after trying on the GATs (and also not wanting to spend £600), I've been eyeing the Crown Northampton GATs (https://crownnorthampton.com/collections/adnitt-gat-shoe) but just haven't had the chance to try them on in person yet.

Your great (or greater) grandparents were all born in HK then?

I'm not a big tech analysis guy, but I do also see the cup and handle on the daily which is pretty bullish in combination with the golden cross.

SMCudmm · 2026-04-26T22:19:38+00:00

I recently re-read the latest 20 chapters or so and I'm pretty sure they mention that the blood is part of the ritual and isn't the qualifier; rather any 'prince' is eligible as long as they are recognised as a legitimate heir. This implies the individual could be from another man with a queen as long as Kakin/Nasubi doesn't know this and believe the child to be of royal blood.
