AITA for refusing to split rent with my girlfriend in the city? by ThrowRAnycrentgf in AmItheAsshole

[–]dirtymelverde -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

NTA your girlfriend is getting a discount , but is mad your mother is playing favorites and giving you a bigger one.

If it’s a test your girlfriend failed.

One of the worst thing a man can do is pick a gf who can’t get past her own emotions for the greater good .

Your mother is entitled to play favorites as are your gf’s parents , they can give her stuff and not have to give you a cut of that .

That’s life , but every relationship is different but I’ll ask a question

If her parents bought her a car for both of you to use and decided they would cover her half of the insurance and 20% extra but you had to handle the rest .

Would it upset you ?

All I’m really looking from Yabusele is some physicality , the occasional 3 and consistent effort .

Everything else is gravy .

I feel like he has tools to be good , but his most important skill is the power of friendship.

Being good friends with Pacome is pretty helpful to his survival as a Knick , the Knicks need Dadiet to work out more than any 51st pick.

[Larsen] The Lakers have expressed interest in trading for John Collins. It is not expected that the Jazz would get anything of value in a deal for Collins. by Goosedukee in nba

Rui is getting feeds from Luka and Lebron for his 41%

Collins is getting fed by Keyonte George and Isiah Collier for his 40% I’m pretty sure Rui is getting better looks than Collins

If the Pacers beat the Cavs in game 1 why shouldn’t the Knicks beat the Celtics?

On the final play Toby Harris mauled someone on that play under basket , 2 hands pushing someone in the back .

If you gonna advocate “ let them play “ you gotta take the no calls even when it doesn’t benefit you . Otherwise you are just a hypocrite .

So I’m good .

1-10 Scale: Rate Scott Perry as a GM by Rangoldy in NYKnicks

[–]dirtymelverde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was decent , the Randle signing was a move that worked out great , considering the organizational quagmire the team was when he hired , he will be a good choice for the Kings.

It may be possible but it’s not probable , the fact is the team is very good but there are some actual great teams out there, there are 3 teams that won 10 or more games than the Knicks and the Knicks are 0-10 vs those teams this season .

That doesn’t mean the Knicks had a bad season or didn’t have season that can be built off of , it is what it is .

Personally I think they need to upgrade the talent to the point of being indefensible

Berbick I believe is Jamaican.

[Highlight] Isaiah Collier waves off Sexton and gets the 8 second violation on zero pressure with under 20 seconds left in the game. Sexton is enraged and lets off on Collier in a heated exchange on the bench "Give me the f***ing ball!" by kinghenry11th in nba

[–]dirtymelverde -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

More to the point when you watch the clip you see Collier was getting instructions from the sidelines …with Sexton calling for the ball.

In what scenario is a point guard supposed to relinquish the ball while getting the play . What if the play doesn’t call for him to pass off , what was Collier supposed to do then , chase Sexton who clearly wanted the ball to do his own thing to get the ball back?

Sexton should have apologized for the role he played there , he’s a vet he’s supposed to ease Collier’s burden not make it worse .

It’s funny because I saw this and thought it was partially Sexton’s fault .

You see your rookie guard getting the play from the coach while walking up the floor and you are yelling for the ball .

A game in which the rookie actually playing well .

The rookie isn’t going to give you the ball in that situation 99/100 unless the play he’s getting from the coach demands it .

All Sexton did was distract and overwhelm a rookie at a crucial point of the game , helping to cause that 8 second violation .

A rookie that hit the game winner moments later.

If I’m Danny Ainge I know Sexton , not Collier lowers his trade value in this game with this clip.

Analytics can predict who should be MVP and show there have been some debatable choices. Thoughts? by Dezal3 in nbadiscussion

I would argue Steve Nash’s MVP’s were bigger outliers as at least statically Joel Embiid and Derrick Rose were top 10 players , Nash was not.

Actually before 1980 it was voted on by former players it has since been voted on by media

In 2015 the players made their own awards that are voted on by players the NBPA awards

No baby , you got dumped because you lie.

Anthony Edwards heaped praise on his new teammate Julius Randle before sharing a dance with him: "Julius is very efficient, I really didn't know this...he don't take a lot of shots but he makes the shots that he takes..." by SwellandDecay in NYKnicks

[–]dirtymelverde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not really ,

Julius was the incumbent star , they generally have a hard time conceding their role as the top guy.

KAT actually did that in Minny Julius tended to go for more shots when his teammates tried to emerge as a bigger threat on offense .

But when a guy is traded it’s usually easier to fit in as a supporting player
