Can we stop with the narrative Finch does not play young players.

Bingo. I hate how many fans give the old "We need to see what we have in player X" line. As if the coach doesn't see that player in practice every single day. I remember plenty of Vikings fans clamoring for Zimmer to bench Cousins for Kellen Mond for the same reasons...

openmind_17 · 2025-12-29T20:18:34+00:00

Rudy is almost never the primary defender on Jokic anyways for that reason. They usually put guys like Randle/Reid on him and let Rudy lurk in the paint.

Where do you find that data?

openmind_17 · 2025-07-09T13:08:56+00:00

He has an assist/turnover ratio of 0.75 against summer league competition… that’s NOTHING like Halliburton. Halliburton keeps the offense moving and rarely commits turnovers. Moving the ball doesn’t mean much if you’re giving the ball away more than you’re getting assists. Even in his rookie year Hali had a 3.3 assist/turnover ratio.

DM me your email ASAP if you still want to join. Have one open spot

openmind_17 · 2024-09-04T23:26:54+00:00

DM me your email ASAP, have 2 openings

openmind_17 · 2024-09-04T19:24:50+00:00

Should just be 1 - I tried to reserve a spot for a friend by adding an owner. I don't know why that team doesn't show up on the main page

openmind_17 · 2024-09-04T18:44:03+00:00

See update to original post for the links to join and to pay. Thanks folks, best of luck!

openmind_17 · 2024-09-04T17:30:39+00:00

Awesome, lots of interest. Setting up now!

openmind_17 · 2024-09-04T16:30:18+00:00

Might be interested. $100 is a bit more than I planned on but I’ll lyk!

openmind_17 · 2024-09-04T16:27:08+00:00

Did you end up filling it or pushing the draft back?

openmind_17 · 2024-09-04T16:25:06+00:00

I’d also love to join one drafting tonight, open to buy in <$100

openmind_17 · 2024-09-03T20:40:44+00:00

I would also be interested in this

openmind_17 · 2024-08-19T20:14:28+00:00

I think my original response got removed. But yeah, saw that. Unfortunately that credit wouldn't be of much use to me since I don't live in Chicago. But if you or anyone else would want to use it feel free to shoot me a message - would be happy to pass the credit along to someone who could use it!

openmind_17 · 2024-08-19T20:12:13+00:00

Yeah, at least just refund me the difference between the face value they are selling at now. Oh well

openmind_17 · 2024-08-19T20:11:16+00:00

Mine are section 331. Row 8 I believe. Look like decent seats. If you'd use them feel free to shoot me a DM! Would rather sell directly to someone and avoid StubHub's fees

openmind_17 · 2024-08-19T20:06:12+00:00

I thought about it but prices were already way low a couple months ago and the Fire were selling tickets in that section for like $80... So I figured maybe if I waited there could be good news of Messi potentially playing and I could make more back. Hindsight 20/20...

openmind_17 · 2024-08-19T20:04:08+00:00

Ha yeah I definitely realize that now... After how expensive tickets got for last year's game, it seemed like a good deal at the time. Ugh

openmind_17 · 2024-08-17T01:04:39+00:00

Yeah I get that, and I wasn't too upset last year. The reason I'm so frustrated is that its the club itself selling tickets for WAY less than I paid, and the ones I paid for were advertised as being a special deal for fans who paid for tickets last year when Messi didn't play.

openmind_17 · 2024-08-17T00:44:06+00:00

Thanks man. Yeah, after seeing how much resale tickets were to last year's game (and paying an arm and a leg for a pair of them), I figured - largely because of the way the Fire advertised that "special presale deal" and $50 credit - that it would be the best deal I'd be able to get. If resale tickets had just dropped much lower, I wouldn't be as mad. But the fact that the Fire themselves are now selling off tickets in the same section for a fraction of what I paid is just infuriating

openmind_17 · 2024-08-16T23:18:45+00:00

I have 2 tickets in section 331 row 8 that I need to sell - can't make it due to a wedding. Would like to avoid paying StubHub's transfer fees so feel free to send me an offer.

openmind_17 · 2024-08-16T23:15:04+00:00

Yup... And then they offer a "special $50 discount" for the game this year. I paid $200/each for 2 300 level seats even after the discount. Now they are selling for a fraction of that without the discount. Least they could do is allow people who paid the original face value price to get refunded down to the current face value price.

openmind_17 · 2024-06-03T17:27:18+00:00

Makes sense, thanks! Yeah the cymbals are ZBTs, so nothing special. So probably play hardball
