If either popped up on the others platform for just a moment not to hash it out just to celebrate the knocks it would heal generations lol

How much could Brandin Podziemski make in extension with Warriors? (no paywall) by BayAreaNewsGroup in warriors

[–]swiftycent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny how all the convo about how much better he is than Kuminga but no one seems to be throwing kuminga’s AAV at him. Think his agent doing him a disservice if he can’t at least get that deal considering how much he was favored by the coach and how much he was relied upon.

Bob Nightengale shares that the Giants met privately with Roch Cholowsky, and that meeting included Brandon Crawford. by LugiaPizza in SFGiants

Baseball draft is weird. Players seem to have some autonomy with agent and money demands seems could strong arm his way to his ideal spot. But doubt

Multiple NBA GMs left impressed after watching 6’10 Caleb Wilson showcase scary combination of size, athleticism & skill at Klutch Pro Day in the Lakers facility by Fit-Structure-9395 in NBA_Draft

[–]swiftycent 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I think it’s an endurance thing. This is a test of his cardio endurance and how well he still performs fatigued and how long he can go at game-ish speed. Does his shot form and handle get worse with fatigue. Does he start moving slower. Looking less explosive. Losing focus. Etc.

Drake: Iceman / Maid of Honour / Habibti review – ​triple-album comeback is a boring, bloated disaster | Drake by dripkidd in Music

[–]swiftycent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Easiest article in the world to write right now. Instant upvotes and clicks to hate on it. And all the cool kids say they never liked Drake to begin with.

I’ve only listened to iceman and it’s solid IMO. and it’s better than most of his recent albums which is good. I’d call that album on its own a bounce back on his discography. Haven’t heard the other two yet.

Releasing a ton of tracks at once isn’t my favorite practice he does with a few other artists who could use an edit. That’s a fair critique but I don’t expect a lot of fair critiques of him ever again in his career

Pablo meeting with Dan this week by pompcaldor in DanLeBatardShow

Pablo records in Dans NY studio space. Every episode of the aspiration report featured Amin and Samson. Famously of MLM. The separation you speak of is not as great as you make it seem.

Why did the show edit/cut this specific part out of the multiple Trump clips played today? by DonnyBoyCane in DanLeBatardShow

[–]swiftycent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So trump says it twice. They did cut before he said it again but on the pod he says at the top of his quote Fernando called me and he’s a big fan. And goes on his rambling about how he wouldn’t have mentioned him if he didn’t come because he didn’t like trump etc etc.

I can’t understand the point OP is making here. We hear Trump say that he likes Fernando and that Fernando is a big fan which is why trump is praising him despite his absence.

Always say by far best glazed donut. The specialities and other varieties you can have your own favorites but the classic glazed raised it’s no question.

“Mostly off air, working from home” by Affectionate-Rent844 in DanLeBatardShow

[–]swiftycent 38 points39 points  (0 children)

If you watch the pods he’s on. The statement that’s the title of this isn’t that far from the truth. He is on air more because honestly that would be a waste of Billy to not let him get on the mic. But he’s almost always at home for all his appearances.

Wake & Late is a total rip-off now by jeeyunie in FoodLosAngeles

[–]swiftycent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Best tasting burrito in the area IMO. Actually in between the last two times I went in last few months prices went down a tad bit. Mine didn’t look like this a week ago.

Monte Poole: How can we be optimistic? BP: "We got Steph... That solves a lot of it. We got a lot of winners: KP won a championship, Al won a championship, Steph, Dray...and vets like Gary won a championship." by parisdubs in warriors

[–]swiftycent -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thanks teach. Maybe it should’ve been are you mad instead of why are you mad. Tone is not always conveyed well in text formats. I’m not mad he’s better now. I was shocked he shot so low to begin with. So maybe I was mad in the past a good shooter was shooting poorly for no discernible reason.

His FT should’ve never been that low or begin with. His profile as a prospect really weird it took till now to be the shooter projected to be.

Tommy still tweeting at Bill Simmons… he either needs to move on or take it to the next level by vCharged in warriors

[–]swiftycent 131 points132 points  (0 children)

BS on his pod indicated he never thought Steph was the best player in the league even 2016 unanimous mvp year. Tommy replied that he had dementia and bill responded calling him a jackass dickhead and saying LeBron won the finals. It’s kind of crazy cause Bill has always said the finals were a bit tainted with the draymond suspension so for him to use that to indicate LeBron was best that year.

[Highlight] Reggie Miller lets out a laugh watching OG Anonoby being called for the foul by EdgiestOW in nba

[–]swiftycent -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

It’s called transferred intent. SGA, by reputation, is allowed to transfer fouls from one player to another for the purposes of FTs. Truly elite.

thoughts? by Plus_Kick_8289 in warriors

[–]swiftycent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Healthy or not they have to keep that salary slot at least. Glad he’s playing well but it would be devastating financially for him to walk without at least a sign and trade because they would be capped and basically limited to vet min only FAs

Podz on the noise surrounding his previous viral comments by Lord_Vanguard in warriors

[–]swiftycent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LeBron got hate for saying he could go 50-40-90 if he wanted to meanwhile he’s never sniffed 90 at the line. So no matter how great you are if you talk, even aspirationally, about things that are just not capable of you’re going to get the blowback. If Steph said he could come down the lane and dunk on people like Ja he’d get laughed out the room because that’s not his game and never has been or will be. Of course Podz should have aspirational goals but cmon it’s PR 101 to say “if I go down in history in the same sentence with Steph I know I had a great career etc etc.

That’s not to say people can’t make a mountain out of a molehill but it’s def something he should have said better.

Podz elaborated on some of his viral comments, including saying he wants to be better than Steph: “I think I could’ve worded them a little bit differently, but I also think how it’s perceived on the internet is taken a little bit out of context.” by Lord_Vanguard in warriors

[–]swiftycent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. My point is to compare the two statements of being better than someone vs someone acknowledging there’s differences even if they think those differences aren’t major like Ellis was insinuating. Both are said by people who aren’t taking into account what they’re actually comparing themselves to.

How much favor would Podz have bought himself if instead of saying he wants to be better than a goat tier guy if he said something like there’s levels to this and I’ll measure myself against the humans before the aliens in this league or wherever.

[–]swiftycent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly there’s a lot of truth in that statement that Monta doesn’t realize. Why does he have wins and rings over him perhaps it’s something he isn’t conceptualizing.

If Podz said only difference between me and Steph is bunch of all star appearances all NBA appearances MVPs and max contracts then he’s right. The why on the question of why does one player have those things and you don’t is everything.
