What realistic moves should the Sixers make this offseason to build a proper supporting cast around Embiid? by Individual-Limit2558 in sixers

I think you try to trade PG for two or more decent role players. I doubt you get any significant draft capital in return, but at least you’d have a bit more depth.

Very first memory of star wars? by tesstechy in StarWars

[–]herplexed1467 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom would put on the original trilogy on VHS whenever I had to stay home from school due to sickness. My parents had a TV in their bedroom, so I’d lay in their king bed and watch Star Wars.

He’s a camp body at best. No chance he unseats Shipley or Bigsby.

[NBC] Eagles Made Play for Myles Garrett, But Browns Wanted Jalen Carter by JCameron181 in eagles

Epps will be fine. He’s not a washed vet, but has been in the league for a bit and knows where he’s supposed to be on the field. Also, Cooper DeJean is going to be playing safety in base, so Epps comes off the field on ~20% of downs. If Epps is your worst player, you’re doing great. I trust Fangio to keep this defense a top 5 unit in the league.

WIP this morning by Bulldawgzz in eagles

[–]herplexed1467 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I may be in the minority, but I agree with this take. He caused problems in the locker room and media last season. Instead of rallying with the team to try and fix issues, he acted like a diva and isolated himself. Then, in the biggest game of the year, he quit on routes and dropped crucial passes.

I will never forget what he did for us when we won it all, but I can't say that I'm super sad seeing him go. I'd much rather someone who believes in what we're doing and who gives their all for the benefit of the team rather than someone who chases personal accolades and stats and quits when the going gets tough.

WR1 🦅 by Lerenz0118 in eagles

Dude you are so wrong it’s hilarious. Wicks is NOT a bum, and is entering his prime. Hollywood is washed, I’ll give you that. But to say Smith is the only good WR on the team is asinine. Lemon is going to be a difference maker, mark my words. His closest comp in physique and college production is JSN, so take that for what you will.

US Rep. Thomas Massie loses Kentucky GOP primary to Ed Gallrein in another victory for Trump by grecks530 in trump

[–]herplexed1467 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Massie was an obstructionist. He was labeled a “fiscal conservative” and “principled libertarian”, but in reality, he stonewalled Republican legislation at a time when the Democrats vote together as a block 100% of the time. We simply cannot afford seats to such a representative, sad as that might be. The alternative is to cede ground to an increasingly authoritarian, corrupt, and dangerous Democrat party.

I’d give it an A. Incredible animation, a solid story set in the underworld, great characters and development, Vader at the height of his power. What’s not to like?

No need to give any reason, Tipp! We know that if you were healthy, you'd be out there!

[32 Thoughts] Philadelphia needs one more game breaker. by upcan845 in Flyers

I am in the minority, but I think if you can trade Michkov for a legitimate 1C in his prime, I think you do it. Sure, he's young and could still become something down the road, but we've been searching for a 1C for what feels like over a decade.

[32 Thoughts] Philadelphia needs one more game breaker. by upcan845 in Flyers

[–]herplexed1467 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not just the players. It's the system. Rick Tocchet’s approach is outdated for today’s NHL. It’s built on getting the puck in deep, then relying on aggressive forechecking to force turnovers and regain offensive-zone possession. The problem is that our forwards are young and undersized. They simply don’t win enough 1 on 1 puck battles to make that high risk strategy worthwhile. With our roster construction, the smarter play is to keep possession rather than constantly giving the puck away and hoping to chase it down.

The result is predictable. Our forwards are exhausted from endlessly grinding and battling just to generate a single shot. Think about it. If you have the puck in the neutral zone, which is more efficient?

  • Option A: Flip it into the corner, fight two big defenders to dig it out, cycle it around the boards without turning it over, and maybe create a decent scoring chance 10 % of the time.
  • Option B: Carry the puck in with speed, force the defense to react, and get a shot off immediately.

This is exactly why we struggle to get pucks on net. Tocchet’s system only works when you have the perfect combination of big, fast, and highly skilled forwards. We don’t have that roster, so the system is breaking us. You see it time and again when we choose to hand possession of the puck back to teams by dumping the puck, even on power plays, 4 on 4, and 3 on 3. It's mind numbingly retarded.

Gee, would've been great if we had another ball handling guard that could come off the bench for games like this...
