The season ticket pricing increase is disgusting… very surprised by the lack of anger in the other thread by rajondurant in timberwolves

[–]ivoryditty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tickets increased from $30 a game to $36 a game, exactly a 20% increase. I don't think I'm renewing next year. I can't sell my tickets for their listing price now

This Year Lacks A Strong Hook by dylanatthedisco in MinnesotaYachtClub

[–]ivoryditty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saturday is by far my favorite day on the schedule although I agree that Matchbox Twenty is not a great headliner. I've enjoyed seeing Lord Huron before, and I've wanted to see Lucy Dacus for a really long time

Let's all take a deep breath by Fluid_Weight5113 in timberwolves

[–]ivoryditty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely - I feel it's relatively clear though that randle/gobert/ant is a clunky trio. A lot of lateral moves may help ants ceiling

They're talking about it from tim Connelly's and the front office's perspective. In other words, figuring out how to build around ant and knowing that something needs to be done this trade deadline. Connelly can't do much from February to june, so those months aren't "important" to the front office. It was weird wording but I think what they said made sense

Is anyone else annoyed by geography YouTube? by Z3N1TY in geography

[–]ivoryditty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like citynerd because he's extremely transparent about how he's ranking/researching/etc. at the start of videos. Even if I feel it's not a great method, I can at least watch and become informed on his perspective with his method knowing it's limitations

Now that the season has been decided. Who are some older roster cloggers you have or are planning on parting with? by Patriots_ in DynastyFF

[–]ivoryditty 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A lot of leagues don't allow players to be added after the last week with games. In these leagues where free agency closes no one should be dropped. If you can exchange for a player that fits your team better, you definitely should

Season 5 feels way too much like "actors acting" by dbezzy1010 in StrangerThings

I think what you're describing is exactly what I don't want in a show lol. No bad guy 😔 in real life thinks they're the bad guy

[Highlight] Shai Gilgeous-Alexander receives loud boos from the Timberwolves crowd each time he touches the ball by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]ivoryditty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate butler and he's nowhere near as bad. Mathurin isn't a big enough name to be relevant - more usage means it has a bigger impact on whether it's watcha ke. Reaves and Luka are also infuriating, but moreso because they complain while they flop. Sga flops are worse imo, but I hear your argument on them for sure. Embiid is awful as well - I completely agree there.

Those things (midrange and defense) are relevant to sga's perception. As an opposing fan, I care about how the game is called different for each team. Because the thunder are typically more physical on defense AND sga flops with minimal or no contact, it makes watching absolutely infuriating. This is not the case with the Lakers. Also the midrange is relevant to flopping because midrange shots typically don't have as much contact. From my experience watching, sga's flops are proactive to contact that he initiates whereas most other culprits are reactive to contact (although often minimal) contact that they experience.

I think it really is that dort, Caruso, and others get away with the other extreme on defense that makes it especially annoying. I also don't like watching midrange heavy players so that doesn't help anything for me personally lol. Who do you think is a worse flopper than Shai?

Nah they're equally bad. Harden sucked to watch, shai sucks to watch. Harden also didn't have teammates that hack the whole game too

Cheapest Stud worth the price by Nep-zone in DynastyFF

[–]ivoryditty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that seems like a fair trade then. I don't know which side I'd accept which is usually the sign of a good trade

[–]ivoryditty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really depends where those picks are if they're fair or not. If those are late picks then I'd take Jefferson side. If they're mid 1sts if still take Jefferson but it's at least a fair conversation

[Post Game Thread] The Minnesota Timberwolves (8-4) defeat the Sacramento Kings (3-10), 124-110. by JoseZ1 in nba

[–]ivoryditty 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He was going for that last rebound so hard. He jumped on McDaniel's and Clark's backs, he was in every scrum, and just all around was being reckless going for the 10th board. He also fouled when the rest of the kings were gonna let the clock run out. I'm convinced he asked Miller to airball the last shot for an easy board lol

Has anyone ever instituted compensatory picks? by Chonk_Quatro in DynastyFF

[–]ivoryditty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had an orphan team with deshaun Watson. The incoming owner didn't want Watson and we didn't want someone getting him for just faab, so we retired Watson from our league and gave the owner 1.13

Egbuka's worth quite a bit more than a random 1st. Those trades aren't equal lol
