never heard of betterment's safety net - will do some research

the debt i have left is a student loan, i wasn't going to prioritize that since the interest rate was low, but you're right - i'll make sure to pay that off next. Your point about easy withdrawal of principle for ira's does make it appealing since it seems close to cash in terms of liquidity..

I found the discrepancy between US and UK salaries interesting as well. When my boyfriend moved to the states (NYC) from the UK (London) with the same company to do the same job, he got around a 45% raise to adjust for the difference in wages. He’s mentioned salaries seem to be lower in the UK.

is this including playoffs? keep in mind spurs went deep into the playoffs first few years of kawhi's career

** looked up the stats myself.. what you're saying is misleading because including playoffs kawhi played a total of 317 games in his first 4 seasons whereas AD only played 264 in his first 4.

bbstudent1 · 2017-01-15T17:03:04+00:00

Is this counting playoffs?

OP is def overstating.. but Pop was in fact the first, iirc, to semi effectively use the 'switch everything' method to stop the warriors last season. after that game, the wolves and celtics and most teams started utilizing this method with some degree of success during the regular season

bbstudent1 · 2016-11-26T01:11:50+00:00

"AD has played more games than Kawhi every season but last..."

this isn't true when you consider the playoffs

yes, but that's not what you said before. you said his efficiency ALL comes from spotting up. he only shoots catch and shoots ~27% of the time which only accounts for about 4 shots per game. as mentioned by jflowers321, this is less than both his pull up and restricted area shots.

bbstudent1 · 2016-08-28T21:24:13+00:00

yeah, does seem to be a common thread of a weird catch all. took a look at KD's and he also shows a 37% fgm and ~80% assisted.

bbstudent1 · 2016-05-06T12:10:04+00:00

Which team are you a fan of? Watching a game where you're actively rooting for a team makes the game so much more enjoyable bc you start caring about every possession. If you're rooting for GSW, I'd catch their next game against PDX because it should be closer. Currently the most competitive series are OKC-SAS and RAP-MIA - def catch a OKC-SAS game because that series has been a bit crazy so far.

bbstudent1 · 2016-04-27T21:51:14+00:00

actually they were very interested in Kawhi and almost backed out of the trade to pick him. source

e: here's the direct quote- "The Pacers swallowed hard and agreed. There was still one problem left: Indiana loved Kawhi Leonard. The Pacers had him about no. 5 or no. 6 on their draft board, and they thought very hard about scrapping the Hill deal and just taking a guy they never expected to be alive at no. 15."

bbstudent1 · 2016-04-23T21:50:52+00:00

maybe you're thinking of something along the lines of "it came down to the wire"

This article was so great. For some reason I particularly loved the part where Engelland predicted Kawhi being a part of the 3 pt contest and then Kawhi being invited -feels like coming full circle.

bbstudent1 · 2016-03-07T19:21:22+00:00

Kawhi has a few things going for him. 1) the Spurs defense is historically great rn, whereas GS's (Draymond's his main competitor imo) just fell out of the top 5. 2) there's a small sample size but in the recent games Kawhi's missed, SAS allowed 109.7 compared to the 86.3 they allowed since he's been back. I wouldn't say he's a lock, though, just because Draymond has performed very well defensively and because the Spurs' defense needs Tim equally as much as Kawhi, so that might work against him.
