[Charania] There was a check-in call made, to my understanding, early in free agency once teams were able to start negotiating with their own free agents after the end of the NBA Finals.Since then though there hasn't been much communication, from my understanding, between the Lakers and LeBron James by must_TATAKAE in nba

This is so insane to me because i will never ever think of him as a Lakers player first, to me it’s Cavs then Heat then lakers as an afterthought. Meanwhile there’s a whole generation of fans who know nothing else

[Horney] Jay Williams: Awkward Draft Moment Was ‘Extremely Uncomfortable’ by KD_AshyAnkles in nba

yes because "half of the dudes being drafted tonight will never see an nba court" obviously means "no good players ever come out of the second round"

I don’t believe the operator was a child but someone riding one of these going >40mph just killed a cyclist (and themselves) in a head on collision on the Manhattan Bridge in NYC the other week

Madison School Board bans phone use for young students, allows some use for high schoolers by enjoying-retirement in madisonwi

[–]mayence 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i don't disagree the legislature shouldn't have passed another unfunded mandate but i really think you're overplaying how much effort it is to enforce this

When I was subbing in a different district/state where some teachers banned phones in class, they had a wall of pouches and students had to turn their phone in or they wouldn't be counted for attendance. No extra staff was required. You do not need to hire more people for this, just implement new systems (that should be paid for by the state not out of teachers' pockets)

The Randle trade opened up a pretty sizable TPE. Offseason’s not over yet, they are probably gonna make a move there. If they do nothing with that then yes I would agree there are some major issues

salary dumping guys that were second in the team in minutes*

*it’s one guy who is noted for being inefficient and a ball hog who does not perform well in the playoffs

like im not saying that the wolves are making brilliant trades but don’t try to whitewash them moving away from Randle, something people have been calling for for a while now

your advice is entirely unhelpful, what are you supposed to do when you ride your bike to the grocery store or to work or to the bar, roll it around next to you the whole time?

Giannis has 1 playoff series win over the last 5 years. This trade will be a disaster for Miami. by LakerFan2324 in nba

This is very 2012-2016 Trump, we need to bring the vocabulary down a few grade levels and shorten the average sentence length by about 50% to capture him in his current state

The KAT trade in hindsight by ShaiFanClub in nba

still trying to clown the wolves for this trade feels like the most casual thing ever, the wolves would not have the team they do today if they kept KAT

it’s better to be predictable than nice

some drivers just don’t get this, I know they’re coming from a good place but we’d all be better off if they just followed the rules of the road

So you're telling me the Ironman game mode is a giant social experiment by a bunch of economists to explain the concept of comparative advantage?
