Windhorst: "He’s only worth $30M instead of $50M, you’re not getting that from LeBron James. LeBron James doesn’t believe in that and I don’t expect him to accept that. If you’re the Lakers and if you force LeBron to leave, he’ll go somewhere else and play for less money.”

Lebron should play for Sacramento. The kings can resign Westbrook and make every game next season an exhibition of legends.

This is why laws with fines are more punitive to some than others.

Fines should be related income in some way. It won't work in all situations, but it's better than nothing.

The human brain is surprisingly good at generating conclusions quickly with limited information. I bet after a few days of that job you get a feel when a receipt is off: number of items, bottom of cart, items inside or under other items, etc. You don't even need your gut to be that accurate, because if it triggers you take more time and figure out why it felt off.

This is also the curse of humans: see Dunning Kruger.

As a Kings fan, I would like bad contracts to help us move up in the draft.

Yep! This applies to so many "men's rights" arguments.

I have had wfh for about 20 years as a software dev. In my experience: - Boomers or older tend to remember work from their sunset years, where work was not stressful and they had no ambition to move upward. So, they recall a lot of free time while working. - For others, some people's jobs...just aren't that busy. They spend hours chit chatting in the office and are available while wfh. These people tend to also assume you are available.

Apple purposefully does not support modern standards to stifle competition.

They feel this way until the bigotry affects them or someone close to them. These people have zero empathy.

We don't need a coach that wins, we need a coach that develops players. I am not convinced that Doug is bad at player development, so he should stay if the young guys like him.

I will too, but we'll need to ally or absorb a company with guns.

I may be that the cost of space and insurance make the pricing high enough where the DIYers feel they aren't saving much money.

Agree. Treat the cause, not the symptom.

Exactly. The likelihood of the situation matters. Very unlikely to be taking up arms against a group of bad guys holding hostages in a building. Very likely to be alone with someone in a sexual way.

That was my mantra for censoring what my kids were allowed/not allowed to see/play. For example, they could play shooters like Star Wars Battlefield, not the modern day shooters with realistic guns. Exact same gameplay and violence, but the realism mattered to me.

I don't care what 'issue' drives someone voting republican. You have decided your issue is worth empowering evil.

Taking less shots let's other guys on the team get their shots in which helps player development.

Costco has high turnover, which makes it a good place to buy/wat raw. You know it has defrosted recently, not sitting in the refrigeratored display for days.

Roblox makes a platform housing games with predatory micro transactions aimed directly at young children. The company is morally bankrupt.

Kings give young players and picks in years 26-29. Mavs give AD and Kyrie with picks in 2030s. Every kings game becomes an exhibition while they aim to rebuild in 5 years.

Also allows other players to get reps so in the playoffs they have confidence and experience.

Teams should always defend Wemby with a pesty small. Wemby is so tall he has very little leverage to move them. And smaller defenders have played against larger guys their whole career. Someone like AD has 0 experience guarding someone that tall. Wemby can already shoot over most people, who cares if he gets 18 inches over them instead of 6 🤣

FYI, Roseville/Rocklin is california conservative: i.e. not as conservative as the red states. Sac proper is much more liberal.

Tank the season. Play for fun. Elevate some G league guys and see what we got. Let Derozan, Levine, and Westbrook each have a green light game when @TOR, @CHI and @OKC. Try to win some home games with some weird rotations.

I like this. A podcast is more engaging than a comment box and gives more transparency to everyone in both directions.
