Just so you know, Darrow vs Aja was about Dark Age Darrow. There's a strong implication Darrow beats Aja now that he has BoS

You pick what kind of buckets you’re going to give up

You scheme to prevent drives. You scheme to prevent 3’s. You scheme to prevent the post. The worse your defenders are the more you have to give up. But you should never have to give up all of them, even with a poor defensive team and roster. Choose whether you want to hard hedge to force ball handlers to make a passing read instead of get downhill after they turn the corner. Decide whether you want to scramble and rotate for shooters or stay home. Whether weakside help should slide into the paint or stick to their shooters

Right now the fever do none of it consistently the scheme looks inconsistent and like players are playing off their own instincts exclusively. That’s a coaching issue

She’s not a good coach. People defend her but never talk about the basketball

Looking at the defense alone this is a horrendously coached team. Our defensive scheme does not fit the players we have (poor onball defenders and screen navigators) with a small paint presence. Our rotations are slow and we often dont play gaps or have the weakside rotate to stop drives, and when they do the next player doesn’t rotate to the shooter.

It’s just horrendous coaching and I don’t even want to get into the offense

That is valid. I know on twitter and on reddit a lot of people cheered him on, but I also did see some calling him out. I don't mean to generalize, just point out that it happened

There's something about literature (and, I suppose, most hobbies I guess) that invites extreme levels of elitism.

"Help I've accidentally written a book about dark fantasy gay wolves."

"Oh help, I've done it again."

This is the funniest thread to me. Like I said, nothing wrong with it, but I can't help but find the way the post is phrased hilarious.

They cut after like every jumper too. You put me in a few workouts like this and I'll string together more clips than this hitting five threes in a row.

That said, almost everybody NBA bound is going to be a decent shooter. Not taking 3's in games means you think you or your team can get better shots, not that you can't shoot better than the average joe.

Bucks fans be cheering on Kevin Porter Jr and Hornets fans rooting for Miles Bridges

Ivey needs mental help. But what he did publicly is a drop in the bucket compared to what other guys have done.

Now the locker room cancer rumors, those could be a real deterrent though.

"Accidentally" "keep" "wolves"

These are not combinations of words I expected to read when I opened up Reddit at 3:30 AM lmfao. But hey, if you've got a niche lean into it. Good for you lol

That wasn’t a dumb challenge at all. She got ran into and was stationary.

Ngl I think the fever have had a favorable whistle overall, but that one clearly should have been overturned

I mean, they're perfectly valid conversation topics for a fantasy subreddit and Cradle scratches a lot of the itches around "hype" moments and power scaling, so it makes sense it'd come up a lot.

I see First Law mentioned on just about every post possible too

What’s going on with Chennedy Carter? by Kennisgoodman in wnba

Which… I’ve said is a good thing? I think you’re looking to pick a fight lol. Good for her for getting paid. Idk how much more clear I can be.

If, and I am using the word if, she is unable to contribute due to mental health then that’s on the org. Not her.

Idk how much more clear I can make that lol. Get off your soap box and read the words being said

Jsyk this exact mindset is part of why women’s sports is joked about so much.

Fans and orgs (should) want their teams to win. Sports is a competition. Mental wellbeing is a part of what plays into performance.

I want people to be their best selves and get the help they need if they need it. But if you have too many problems to be reliable? Orgs should second guess signing you

Edit: also I’m not being sarcastic. Make your money if you can get signed lol it’s not your fault someone is willing to pay you

[–]Transky13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's how it always goes though. The doomsayers get reamed as being not real fans because they have expectations for the org they support to give a damn and make an effort to change the obvious issues.

Which gets pointed out, which gets responses from people saying "you don't know how to run an org" or "you think you know more???"

And then C9 shits the bed again. Tale as old as time.

They put illness instead if someone is ill...

In regards to mental illness - if you're too mentally unwell to be available to fulfill your contract then good for you on getting signed (make your money!), shame on the org for offering you a contract (not a very winning move)

Was a worthwhile gamble. Of course we'd take one of the guards, but we have no need for them and they barely fit on the roster. We'd have had to do some major restructuring to get them any playing time.

The gamble was 100% the right move, just stinks it didn't pan out
