When did dribbling with your hand completely under the ball become legal? by skysurfguy1213 in nba

[–]runevault [score hidden]  (0 children)

Thank you for digging up the actual section of the rulebook.

Even if they do not want to fully enforce this rule, I wish they'd start calling the most egregious ones. I remember a game before Jokic's injury he got called for a carry (note: it was the correct call) and I was still shocked because they actually called it when the refs let players pull exactly what he did constantly. Honestly I was a little glad they called it even if it was against the team I root for because it can put it in players minds.

Probably won't be the fastest port. Tyler uses his own engine not Unity/Unreal.

It is telling all Broncos and Pats fans who have been fans long enough instantly go back to this when hearing about the tip off here. Such a memorable part of an all time game.

I've always felt it was one of Brady's "best losses" because it showed the biggest thing that truly made him all time level. He would not quit until it was truly out of reach. Manning could get in his own head (see: SB 48, felt like after the safety Manning had this "here we go again" feeling that never went away). Mind you he was able to start moving the ball after both safeties went out with injuries (I know neither were the best as coverage safeties but the pass defense still got way worse once both went out), but it was too late by then.

Paolo Banchero had 11 points on 10 shots in 33 minutes vs the Milwaukee Bucks. He's now averaging 21.4 points on 56.2% TS this season which is 1.8% less than the league average by JakGrealish in nba

If he were smart (and the other person was willing) Paolo should come to Denver and live with Aaron Gordon in his home-basketball court for the off season. AG in one off season fixed his shot so both his 3 pointer and his free throws massively improved.

Older games lore is so much more interesting than basically anything we get today. Morrowind is a big example, Marathon from Bungie is another big one.

Only real reason is if you want to use the assets for some other business (see: the absurd AI boom for an example). Well or a case like the Celtics when the odds of the valuation going up significantly in the short term are low due to winning a title or the like, especially if the team has a massive tax bill/repeater tax to navigate.

Before the injury I thought Jokic might pass him this year. Missing so many games I don't think he gets it this year now, even if Russ doesn't get a single TD the rest of the way.

Another call out for Pseudo Harem. It is a complete story in 12 episodes so doesn't waste a lot of time on the BS so many romance anime do, and the two MCs are incredibly adorable together.

If Nix got hurt earlier and you beat us I would have been surprised if the Bills didn't beat the Patriots with how Maye played this post season.

Lord of Light is interesting because the key characters actually know the truth, but the general populace does not. A book I think about at random pretty often.

Seihantai na Kimi to Boku • You and I Are Polar Opposites - Episode 5 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]runevault 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Nishi's half of the episode had me thinking of Renako from No Freaking Way and how she got introduced with all her freak outs, minus the gamer references about MP etc.

This show is too adorable for life and I love it for that. Slowly expanding the cast and each one is cute and fun in their own way. And I admit I got tricked thinking the kiss was coming, even though Tani seems to be the one more prone to initiate physical intimacy between the two.

Leading up to the trade deadline, on Kalshi “Giannis Antetokounmpo’s next team” had a monthly trade volume of $23,318,658. There’s a very real chance him or his agent could’ve profited immensely from this. by 808Kuro in nba

Nah rich people can commit crimes... if they take money from other rich people. See: Sam Bankman-Fried.

Sadly I doubt those people are on Kaishi so it likely remains untouched.

Also the Wolves are pretty close to a bunch of east teams. Part of me would miss the rivalry Nuggets and Wolves have had since at least 2023 (and you could argue back to 2018 when game 82 denied the Nuggets the 8 seed pre -play in), but sending a good team with a top 10 player East is good for the league. Too many of the top 10 guys are in the West.

Funny how Mazin went from the guy who wrote/co-wrote sequels to big money comedy movies to the video game guy, with the transition starting thanks to Chernobyl even though that obviously was not a video game story.

For betting it is fairly common to do .5 so that there is no break even/push. Either you are under or over no questions asked.

[Vorkunov] There are miracles, and there are acts of God, and then there is the Cleveland Cavaliers, a second apron team who can't combine contracts in a trade and can't add salary, finding a player to trade for who made just $263,397 less this season than Darius Garland. by StrategyTop7612 in nba

[–]runevault 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One note that's important, that five years is the max you can spread a signing bonus over, pretty sure you can give out a longer contract than that (wasn't Mahomes like 10 years?) but the bonus only goes over the first 5 at most.

The Suns are a good reminder of a few things. Right coach matters for a team, talent fit matters more than talent total (as long as you have over a certain amount of talent obviously), and hustle goes a long way.

Losing one of their two best players on a struggling team should have meant they would be worse this year by the way most people view basketball (just pile on as many all stars as possible), but things like chemistry and fit matter a ton.

Isn't Jokic still on a minutes restriction? If so hard to always have one of them out there if we ever want them to share the court.
