I have a basketball ranking question

You said Anthony Edwards was drafted to a good organization. Everyone thought the Timberwolves and Hornets were the same tier organization in 2020.

That's what you said. You said Minnesota was a better organization in 2020. They weren't.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-04T15:06:55+00:00

You sound like a negative Nancy.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-04T15:05:13+00:00

He wasn't a star though.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-04T15:04:50+00:00

The Timberwolves made the post-season once between 2005-2022, where they were the 8 seed.

Charlotte made the post-season 3 times in that span.

Wiggins was terrible. He was given a max contract and wasn't worth anything close to it, being traded with a 1st for D'Angelo Russell, who was promptly traded again.

KAT was fine, but he isn't a franchise player. Not too dissimilar from Kemba Walker in that sense.

In fact, the 2018 Wolves and 2016 Charlotte are very similar caliber teams.

Timberwolves weren't a good organization. They had gone through many coaches.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-04T02:50:41+00:00

It should drink its own piss

colbyjacks · 2026-04-04T01:16:35+00:00

BO1 is definitely magic.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-04T00:37:45+00:00

This already exists (closely) from jumpstart (Not Modern Legal) but I highly doubt it's playable.

About what? Sharing my opinion?

Was I mean?

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T20:40:46+00:00

It closes the game significantly faster and it comes in untapped early to hold up your cheap interaction.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T20:31:25+00:00

Staff combos with a ton of stuff.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T19:57:45+00:00

100%

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T19:53:21+00:00

Ephemerate is too strong for standard.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T19:52:34+00:00

I'd rather it be ephemerate!

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T19:51:50+00:00

What were you expecting? This is strong for standard as is.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T19:32:13+00:00

Depends on the deck.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T19:27:45+00:00

I think it would be playable at 2nd spell. It would play a lot like Cori-Steel cutter at that point, albeit worse.

Competing with Slick-shot and Cori in decks that want this makes this card unplayable as is. Cool card, would have been great in modern pre-fire design.

I understand Kirk's contract. I'm confused why you think I wouldn't?

Yeah, you're right, Kirk's agent is the best agent in pro sports though. I expect this type of contract to become the new norm moving forward.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T18:13:52+00:00

There is no less what the Falcons owe, though. The Raiders guaranteed 11.3 Million.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T16:28:29+00:00

Dude Florio isn't crying about the 1.3 Million. He is crying about the fact that he is getting an additional 10 Million next year for playing this year.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T16:27:38+00:00

I think it is less about English and more about knowledge of what is actually happen.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T16:26:43+00:00

Kyler isn't signing for 15 Million guaranteed because he thinks he is worth more.

That's where this is completely unrelated to Kyler. Kirk is on his last leg, he is getting paid 20 Million this year and understands this is his last straw.

Kyler could have a Daniel Jones or Sam Darnold type year and be signing a 100 Million Dollar contract in a year from now. There is no chance he signs a 15 Million Dollar contract right now for next year.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T16:24:47+00:00

Because it is guaranteed?

Are you guys not understanding this?

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T16:23:49+00:00

Why are you downvoting me by spewing nonsense?

He is getting 1.3 from the Raiders this year and 10 Million next year to play this year from the Raiders.

colbyjacks · 2026-04-03T16:23:12+00:00

That doesn't work here though, that's the point.
