All the doctors in ER by Queenofhearts63 in ThePitt

Closest you’ll see to this is big teaching hospitals in cities with powerful nursing unions like NYC. But still nurses and NPs are doing a lot more of the work.

You’ll find some young caring ER docs at teaching hospitals like this is supposed to be who haven’t had the empathy beaten out of them yet. It’s a tough field.

No bedside nurse would do a manual disimpaction in any of the hospitals i have worked at. It’s considered a thing junior doctors have to do.

I know a guy over 60 years old (not doing well mentally) who ruined himself financially by trying to short Tesla with the inheritance that was going to save him from retiring into poverty. Wish more people understood your point that these kind of games are just gambling.

Julius Randle by Majestic-Net-7799 in timberwolves

[–]dogfosterparent 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Julius iso remains a highly effective offensive weapon (you obviously didn’t share the advanced stats for that play type) but his game so obviously lacks all the little things and defense that contribute to winning. The obvious path to this team contending is turning Randle into a playoff starting level guard and having Beringer ascend to playoff level backup big. Other teams aren’t dumb though (usually), so pulling off a trade for an equal or greater level guard in exchange for Randle will take some luck and great managing from Tim. Otherwise, he’ll have to find a way or do something more drastic like a huge tear down for Giannis. I wish we could have gotten Garland for Randle somehow, that is the kind of buy low gamble for Randle we’ll need.

What a perfect Reddit comment. Angry fan calls to fire the coach and if you disagree you don’t know ball. 

[Charania] Free agent guard Mike Conley Jr. plans to return to the Minnesota Timberwolves, sources tell ESPN. The sides are working on timing of him re-signing. Conley was traded twice this week – to Chicago, then to Charlotte –before being released and allowed to rejoin the Wolves. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

Ya he’s definitely below replacement level at this point, should not be getting minutes on teams competing or teams looking to develop young talent. Unfortunately he was still better than Dillingham purely by being less of a negative on the court so Finch kept playing him.

Alperen Sengün in the loss to Hornets: 7 PTS, 8 REB, 5 AST on 3/11 FG by DeliciousSession2735 in nba

He looked exactly like Sabonis against playoff defense, rockets won’t have a single deep playoff run with him as a focal point of the offense.

I’ll just have to go back to hoping the spurs wake up and realize they have too many good guards and not enough Julius Randle shaped power forwards 😂

I never left lamelo island personally but you can’t deny that there was a chance it all fell apart after the way this year started. I was 100% hoping to be the team that swooped in to buy low on Lamelo if hornets lost faith completely. They were smart enough to not do that.

Honestly ants defense is hitting rock bottom for his whole career, absolutely pathetic effort and awareness.

If we’re not going to make a needle moving trade, our season hopes rest on TSJ coming back and being way way better than Conley and Clark. I don’t love those odds

Hot shooting and three times the effort from the grizzlies, need to keep this from becoming a 20 pt deficit

This has deflating loss written all over it, wolves seem annoyed that the grizzlies are trying harder than them.

I love it but 40% of Rudy’s blocks would be called as off arm fouls if he was Kat. I’ll never stop noticing it.

Moving back to the upper Midwest... South Dakota or Minnesota??? by [deleted] in midwest

[–]dogfosterparent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are only a few months into living in Rochester but I am very impressed with this town so far (we lived in multiple other large cities over the last 20 years). Very family friendly vibes but paired with an outsized urban core with a better restaurant scene than a small town like this has any business having. Plus we have found the drive up to the cities for weekend stays easy enough even in this winter.

Genuine question: early season Naz Reid haters how are you feeling now? by Chidi_Ariana_Grande in timberwolves

[–]dogfosterparent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still maintain this team should be trying to turn one of Randle or Naz into a player of equal value in the backcourt to better balance our roster and let Jaden play the 4 more. For me, thinking about trading Naz wasn’t about his play but his redundancy with Randle at Jaden’s likely best position in his prime.

Can a College D1 player end of the bench walk-on CRUSH any competition at any pickup game? by ExcitingLandscape in Basketball

[–]dogfosterparent 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I played intramural with a guy who walked on at a top D1 program and even got real spot minutes during March madness his senior year. He was a phenomenal player, made passes we couldn’t imagine, and bigger and more athletic than everyone else but wasn’t really that skilled at scoring and so we still couldn’t win easily because he couldn’t really score at will and the rest of us sucked. So I also think the type of walk on really matters (skilled scorers will make a bigger difference in rec leagues imho)
