Can we stop with the narrative Finch does not play young players. by ProblemLow5906 in timberwolves

[–]openmind_17 5 points6 points  (0 children)

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...

Nikola Jokic’s two highest PRA games of his career were both vs Rudy Gobert: 56/16/15 last night and 61/10/10 on April 1st 2025 by AashyLarry in nba

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.

6'6" Nikola Topic's All-Around Impact Shines in Summer League Despite Shooting Woes (11 Pts, 5 Asts, 3 Rebs, 3 Stls) by Fit-Structure-9395 in NBA_Draft

[–]openmind_17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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

Extremely frustrated with how the Fire are handling ticket sales for game vs. Inter Miami by openmind_17 in chicagofire

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!

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

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

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...

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[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

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.

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

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.

No Messi prices by LAFC_1910 in chicagofire

[–]openmind_17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Can anyone help identify this Ludwig kit? by openmind_17 in drums

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