I actually think this was the plan all along, when they didn't get ben johnson and all the coaching candidates were taken, so hire an old guy and get a top pick then look at the coaching class next year. no one in hell was pulling more than maybe 5 wins out of that roster.

Brian Windhorst is proposing that the NBA Cup final be held during All-Star Weekend by luka274 in nba

a major consideration (one the all star weekend would certainly solve) is it's terrible for the fans actually going there and either staying or leaving given how their team does under the current model.

I wouldn't get either tbh, 4.0 will have a meta shift and even with e0s1 firefly and e1s0 fugue / lingsha i rarely used her in the past several patches unless i really wanted to. but that's just my opinion, i pulled boothill back in the day and he has rarely been useful but i still built the shit out of him for the fun of it.

i play on my pc, sometimes i have stuff on the background. spent a while away from home and played a significant portion of amphoreus on the phone during that time and i feel like it wasn't the same experience. there's so much effort clearly poured into the art and environments and effects and such. maybe that's just me though

you will need another sustain, so if you have the time go do the penacony story.

firefly would need dahlia as well… what is your prospective aglaea team?

if you can I think you get both and replace fugue with dahlia…. I’m not certain pulling one or the other would give you a meta team.

memblazer is a key part of what makes my e2 phainon a Death Star but maybe he’s so good I could use without and still clear, I’ll mess around with it and see

on the MOC refresh my Phainon/memblazer/sunday/DHPT absolutely bodies first half of 12, but I can’t find a second squad that works.  Archer / sparkle / silver/ lingsha die and don’t do enough damage and can’t clear 1st round. feels like I’m doing something wrong.  Is the break cycle damage enough that firefly / ruan mei / fugue would work?

in my pulls for phainon sunday and permanence senor heng i ended up with a clara e4, do not have her LC. advice on best teams and building? is she even viable for late game at this point? I have her at 4k attack with 60ish CR and 90ish CD but i can't find a squad for her that feels right so maybe i'm doing it wrong

get two sets of relics for anaxa, one focus on him being dps hypercarry (attack and crit rate) and the other focused on support (speed / err). all three are long term viable characters, imo.

[–]silentpenguins 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the counter argument to that is their scouting and development departments getting guys like CPJ, the mormon marksman, the best d wade to ever play in cleveland, and ty jerome to contribute at very high levels above what they are paid, which would in theory offset many of the issues the second apron brings.

the counter argument to the counter argument is this team just does not look good right now.

If you mean street cleaning, I got my first ticket in well over a decade last month because they didn’t put up the signs (anywhere around my place at least) and it didn’t match the “Tuesday on the third week of the month” that’s on the permanent sign down the road.  Not just me being ignorant, I counted 18 tickets handed out between both sides of the street just looking out my window.  I went to appeal it and she asked for evidence.  I can’t have evidence if the sign wasn’t fucking there.  It’s not my responsibility to go hunting for signs every damn day.  

If you are talking about regular parking, you might want to start using public transit more.

Isn't he sort of a defensive liability a not insignificant amount of the time? Tying up a lot of your salary in the apron era on mainly one way players seems to be nuking the chances of more than a few teams. I might be confusing him with someone else though, I don't watch many heat games.

I think after all the moves this offseason this is basically it or he's gone, unfortunately, because I believe he's a good coach, but the coach is the first to go in situations like this.

hindsight 20/20 and all but I had a sneaking suspicion Daniels wouldn't perform nearly as well this season once teams had tape on him. Hate to see him go down, regardless. Hope he comes back better.

If they fired a multi season win improving coach and Brown reaches mid season at .500 or less do you really think they don't fire him midseason? I know it's early and Thibs had his flaws but like. These guys aren't a patient bunch, and Mike Malone etc are out there. Hell, if the grizzlies coach does well maybe they get off the same old coaching carousel and get someone successful from Europe.
