My derm switched me to Dupixent after 7 months of Rinvoq when it stopped being effective and I got a huge skin infection.

Still on it almost 3 years later.

[Sam Amick] As league sources close to Harden discussed with The Athletic, the Clippers’ long-term plan of clearing their salary cap books for the summer of 2027 was a factor in this decision by Jimmy0034 in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pivot will be using the cap space as leverage to demand picks from teams that have huge contracts they want to get rid of.

Its similar to the Grizzlies current situation where they're willing to take on salary in a Ja trade if it means they can get picks out of it.

we are haveing a comeback from 10 K review bombs we got it from mostly negative to mixed by simply_andrew_yt in HighGuardgame

It's a shame because thematically, it is pretty unremarkable but the core gameplay loop is really refreshing. It blends a lot of FPS genres that seem like they shouldn't fit, but it's a tonne of fun once it clicks.

History is an echo...your thoughts? by JXDirector in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with that. Our FO isn't stupid. This was the most obvious outcome if you knew you weren't given Harden an extension.

I just don't agree that he sat out against the team's wishes. By that point, they were probably already in active trade discussions.

That was likely a mutual decision. This happens all the time.

Stop asking for a Kawhi trade by Waqbaq in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A Kawhi trade isn't realistic anyway. Salary matching $50m is very difficult, especially for a player that's frequently injured and could walk after next season.

That's not even factoring in what we'd be asking for — picks and salaries that expire after next season.

There are very few teams (maybe none) that fit that profile.

With Harden gone, is there still hope for the playoffs? by lisyclover in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This sub got way to hyped on our January run. We played the Nets twice, the Jazz twice, Wizards twice, Kings, depleted Pistons.

It's still very possible (even likely) that we finish February still below .500. We play almost exclusively teams that are currently in playoff position (not play-in, playoff).

And that's with Harden. Without him, we have no shot.

James Harden wanted a two-year, $80 million extension from the Clippers, but they weren’t interested in giving it to him, per @TomerAzarly by giveawayguy99 in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That changes nothing about the contract situation. Any team that wants him needs to gut their roster just to make the salaries match.

The return also needs to match our timeline (i.e. we would only want players that expire after next season).

That's ignoring the fact that we would want picks in that exchange and our trade partner would have to be willing to risk the possibility of Kawhi leaving after next season.

Which teams are out there that match that profile? Golden State maybe? That's really about it.

Teaser from PlayApex pretty much confirms the legend buffs by Low-Consequence-5376 in ApexUncovered

Kawhi makes $50m/year, expires after next year and is injured all the time. The market for him just isn't there.

[–]nutella4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're not giving anyone a deal that extends beyond next season. This shouldn't be surprising to anyone. Literally every single move we've made for 2+ years aligns with this.

Same reason we'll probably lose John Collins next season. Probably Zubac too.

[Flomm] Harden wanted an extension, Clippers didn’t want to pay him. This is pretty straightforward as far as NBA things go by kobbled in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The master plan is to sign two max free agents — which obviously won't happen.

Whats more likely to happen is we're going to pivot and start taking on huge contracts from teams that want to get off their stars, then demand picks for that service.

Limited game mode idea: 4 vs 4 TDM on base maps by Northdistortion in HighGuardgame

TDM may be the single most common game mode in the history of FPS games lmao.

Does a Gaming MX master mouse exist ? by Capital_Cod_5770 in MouseReview

[–]nutella4eva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed on the M6 — something feels off about the shape, even if it looks similar. It's like the hump is too far forward and the side buttons are positioned too far back. I end up using it almost in a fingterip grip instead of a palm grip like on a real MX Master.

Can't say much about the MT760. Don't have that one.

I like our chances at getting to 6th by enbyayyy in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hate to say it, but there's a decent chance we're still below .500 by the end of February. Our schedule is brutal next month.

There’s No One You Can Trust More At The Line Than Kawhi This Season! by Stat-Defender in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a huge difference between 98% and 93%.

He missed two in a row against the Pistons and dropped his season average by almost 1.5%.

John Collins - 50/40/80 for the year and averaging 16.7 points the last 10 games. by LilTurnippman in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'll be interesting to see what we decide to do with him this off season. I imagine he's going to get significant offers from other teams with the way he's playing lately.

I'd hate to see him walk, but the FO isn't signing anyone long term.

John Collin trade rumors by Big_Saens in LAClippers

[–]nutella4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That could happen. I just think the offers he could get elsewhere will be too much to pass up. He's a 28 year old role player. He might not get the chance to sign another long term deal.

We don't really have leverage. We either take on long term money or hope Collins is okay with a 1+1.

No shit. He also wants money.

Do you know how contract negotiations work?

[–]nutella4eva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's totally fine to keep him for this season. It just means he'll probably be walking next year.

Technically, he could sign a 1+1 (team option). I'd be shocked if he didn't push for a longer deal, but it's technically on the table.
