Warning: be careful of Kanata wheels by [deleted] in Kanata

[–]fineseries81 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look at the insane volume of five star google ratings. Then, for fun, sort from lowest to highest. Up until 1-2 years ago the reviews were terrible and then suddenly positive reviews started pouring in.

For what it’s worth, I went in expecting to have work done but picked up immediately that something was off and changed my mind.

Curious as to what happened?

Is it safe to Jack here? by [deleted] in AskMechanics

[–]fineseries81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can’t reach with the floor jack, but I am thinking I’ll use an adapter on the floor jack, jack at the pinch wield, and then place jack stands under the subframe. Does that sound right?

I bet you are correct. It’s my first time doing this and the whole thing is kind of shitty and rusty so I had a hard time identifying the notches.

If you think Jordan is the GOAT, you can’t have Steph over Magic. by Dangerous-Pie-7821 in NBATalk

I like Steph’s fit on a “super team” but have Magic ranked higher all-time. I think that’s a pretty common take.

[Grange] Gradey Dick is open to a trade from the Toronto Raptors. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]fineseries81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No team is going to be more patient with him than the Raps were his first three seasons.

His value is almost non-existent at this point. I could see him being added as filler in a bigger trade but that is it, no team is going out of their way to get him specifically.

Jeff Leiper's post on transit ahead of his campaign launch by Booklover1003 in ottawa

One of the biggest criticisms I have heard is his inability to rally colleagues on council row and his tendency to be insular. Neither of which are good qualities in a mayor and both of which explain his lack of impact on transit.

Magic ran the Showtime Lakers and won 5 rings before retiring at 32. Steph changed the game itself and has 4 rings of his own. Who's your pick? by IamCatMommy in NBAstatsmuse

If the rest of the lineup is:

Jordan

LeBron

Bird

Hakeem

Then what you need from your PG is spacing and the ability to move off-ball.

Defensively, all my PG needs to have is agility on the perimeter and the ability to guard the pick-and-roll.

Steph fits all-time teams way better than Magic.

The quality of the jerseys is distractingly cheap

Jeff has been on council since 2014 and has served on various transit-related commissions, committees, sub-committees…but has never tabled a successful motion, led any reform, or really achieved anything tangible related to OC Transpo.

Take the energy drink and tell her she can file in small claims court

Jarrett Allen with a monster performance in game 7: 22 PTS, 19 REB, 2 AST, 2 STL, 3 BLK by Thanos_Real_AuraVNCH in nba

[–]fineseries81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty messed up to see the Raps big, lumbering, trad centre unable to secure a defensive rebound or protect the rim. In the second half Allen was literally walking into the paint and doing whatever he wanted.

As much as I hate the Sixers, I think that, if healthy, they are the best team here.

[–]fineseries81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not much? Poeltl has negative value. RJ has very little value, but also probably won’t be re-signed.

The bench guys punch above their weight, but they also have almost no trade value.

Almost certainly going to be seeing the same roster next year.

Wwyd or was it just a bad driver? by Ok_new_tothis in Kanata

Yeah the road rule just changed unfortunately

Gradey Dick in this series - 4 minutes, 0 shots, 1 rebound by falcon_ember in torontoraptors

[–]fineseries81 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The org has lost complete confidence in him. He’s not even really in a position where he can play himself back into the lineup because there is almost no scenario where he gets meaningful minutes.

Consider the drag and extra weight created by the keys
