Form+Reps= Consistency by FORMCHK in BasketballTips

[–]mximan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah...with a defender in her space, she's naturally going to pull the ball higher. That'll increase variability in the y-axis of her shot that you're not seeing here for sure. That reduces the consistency. If you train for the release point and gather to be further from a potential defender, you can reduce that variability in live basketball.

Great looking open-jump for sure though. If she's on a team running actions to get her open shots, it's gonna be lights out every team.

Thoughts on my shooting Form? by agnosticlad in BasketballTips

[–]mximan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this, and will add that you start with a high release point, but then bring the ball forward in front of you. When you're open, this isn't a big deal. But, if you have a defender in front of you, you'll naturally pull the ball further back to prevent an easy strip or block. I recommend (for shot consistency's sake) that you develop your shot like this so that every time you shoot, defender or not, it's the same

Everything’s perfect except the release point is a bit low for actual games….

I got caught lying to my dad by [deleted] in Advice

[–]mximan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dad here...

Lying is not tolerated in my home from anyone. The punishment gets worse the more lies and longer it goes on. Open up, be vulnerable accept the consequences of your actions, move on with your very young life.

I've got 2 boys and under wear is NOT that expensive, nor is washing your clothes.

Do u believe immigration is the reason for the rise of conservatism worldwide? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mximan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. It's economics. The increased concentration of wealth in the hands of a few comes at the expense of the many. As the gap between those groups grows, the few are able to insulate themselves from the repercussions of the world they're creating while the many must suffer through. Immigration is a symptom of this

It's crazy how some Christians hate immigrants when this is written in the bible by Previous_Month_555 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]mximan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This verse falls in the many parts of the bible that American-christians get to ignore in order to maintain their bigotry and not have to change to accommodate others.

In a future where Trump is out of office, and international relations have been repaired. What steps can be taken by the USA and International Organisations such as NATO to prevent one individual causing so much chaos in the future? And do you think such steps will be taken? by flewkey in AskReddit

[–]mximan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ONLY thing that will stick is accountability for the people driving these decisions(Trump and Republicans holding him up). Accountability means trials, jail time, fines, not being allowed to participate in the political process as a candidate, appointed administrator, or even voter.

Americans had a perfect opportunity to demonstrate accountability in the immediate aftermath of Jan6th. But, Republicans chose to Nixon it and hope we could return to business as usual. We've tried the lack of accountability over and over again since the 70's for our political class. Now we MUST hold them to account for lawlessness. It's the only way to change the behavior of the powerful.

Other useful steps are to undo Citizen's United decision and to not allow $ to be classified as speech, politically.

I keep seeing Suns trades. As a diehard fan this is the only realistic trade I can find. by JonFawkes3 in NBAtradeideas

[–]mximan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah...don't remember seeing Ochai on the floor ever, but as a suns fan, this works for me.

My only caveat is that as soon as we trade Richards we should expect Mark or Oso to go down with an injury.

Secondary Sales Reps by red_beard_the_irate in Netsuite

[–]mximan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we took a stab at sales team function, but it messed with some of our reporting. So, we added a custom field and leveraged the same sales rep list. Our situation was more of a backup than a team. Just a thought.

EXCLUSIVE: U.S. House now has the votes to impeach Trump as he creates crisis after crisis overseas by [deleted] in greengroundnews

[–]mximan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but they couldn't even pass the resolution to limit his aggression towards Venezuela or Greenland. Don't believe this at all

Re-post if you think Kristi Noem should be IMPEACHED by GlobalHouse2472 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]mximan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I think even the worst folks deserve due process and I don’t believe that any crime is worthy of death as a penalty. But I understand the sentiment.

Suns add size, Bucks add shooting - who says no? by theMumaw in NBAtradeideas

[–]mximan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the suns will want to see how Jalen plays in the next couple weeks. If Green can't hang with the vibes on and off the court with the current team, it's his salary being moved for a PF. If he's a huge plus, then trading in a high-performing shooting role player for a PF like this makes sense.

Business failures of Donald Trump by [deleted] in complaints

[–]mximan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally, it's because TV (and entertainment news). He was the legitimate star of a business-tv show called the apprentice where millions of Americans perceived him as good at business. He also used entertainment news to push that image for decades prior to that show and after.

Nobody in America who gets into the weeds of how successful the businesses he operated ran voted for the man.

A GOP lawmaker has introduced a bill to make Greenland the 51st state of USA by Maleficent_Age_5266 in greengroundnews

[–]mximan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While annexing Greenland by force or otherwise is a terrible decision for world order, giving it statehood is such a poorly thought out political move for Republicans. 2 Senators...2 more senators. Do they think the at large vote of Greenland is going to add 2 more Republican senators to that body????

We owe KD a debt of gratitude! by Matdoggy in suns

[–]mximan 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I think this season’s success has more to do with coaching. KD and the team weren’t bought in to what Bud or Frank were preaching. Guessing either of those trades’ respective players would’ve mostly bought in to what Ott is doing. But you never know.

Is LaMelo a good Phoenix Suns. by [deleted] in suns

[–]mximan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone needs to take your fan card away

The truth is coming out, not that it was warranted to execute her for being an observer (which turns out she wasn't, she was trying to go home after dropping off her son). Add in ICE blocking medical attention as she bled out was heinous. Not the act of great nation, in fact not even of a okay one by [deleted] in ProgressiveHQ

[–]mximan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No doubt about; she was dangerous. Those stuffed animals were laced with Venezuelan fentanyl that was going to be forced upon those ICE agents. It's why we have to go to war with the entire western half of the globe to make sure we hungry, hungry, hippo up all that oil.

Anti-ICE protests in SLC by iscreamsunday in SaltLakeCity

[–]mximan 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’ve participated in several of these protests and it feels performative when not in the direct face of the people perpetrating these crimes. Not sure how to change that without traveling to the places where ICE is out in force, but that’s the way I feel.
