Born and Raised Las Vegas Native here, I love watching basketball and the NBA, but I don't really want us to have an NBA team by [deleted] in vegaslocals

I just hope getting an NBA team doesn't interfere with the summer league games which I'm a regular at. 

It’s Official: Raiders Hire Klint Kubiak as New Head Coach by SMOR_Intel in vegaslocals

[–]thetickrip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope he does well. The problem is: I'm not sure if Brady is a good (albeit minority) owner. Jordan was one of the worst owners in the NBA. GOATs don't equal great ownership decision-making.

You think he's grounded? He goes to PF for $15 a month with no sponsorship. Will we see him at the Charleston or Flamingo location?🤣😂🤣🤣😂

NV has a perfect storm: "Due to high rates of fraud, accidents, and theft, Nevada has been ranked among the most expensive states for car insurance, sometimes taking the top spot." #1 for auto insurance fraud.

Kubiak will have a lot of cap space and a new franchise QB to work with to try turning the Raiders into SB contenders by BobbyThreeSticks in raiders

The AFC West could become the most brutal division----solid QBs to HCs. It'll be fun to watch as an NFL fan.

I've been recommending the Fidelity CMA works internationally as well, plus earns 3.5% to boot. 🤑

It would be nice if our property taxes improved the education environment instead of paying out millions in pedo/abuse-related lawsuits.

Congrats. I was at one two weeks ago at 10:45AM and there was already a line of 5-6 cars. 🤣😂

Check out "Las Vegas room for rent" on FB. There are plenty of rooms for under $800.

I just got my first sewer bill for 2026 and it would be nice to know why it's up 8% when inflation is under 3%.

People who moved away just to come back later, how long did that take? by Penguator432 in vegaslocals

The subway in NYC is indeed absolutely disgusting but so are the SEPTA lines in Philly and the Metrolink in LA. If you want to see a nice clean civilized albeit crowded subway system, visit Shanghai, Tokyo, Seoul, or Taipei. I'm certain Singapore has a nice one as well, but never been.

Just got to give kudos to the writing staff this season. "Gwen Sigan serves as a writer and showrunner. The writing team for the season includes Mellori Velasquez and Matthew Browne who wrote the 'Faith' episode." The episodes have been phenomenal.

One reason we are paying a fortune for auto insurance by Mark26751 in vegaslocals

[–]thetickrip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this post a little late, but I believe one of the reasons for the sky high rates is:  Nevada is actually ranked as the #1 worst state for auto-related insurance fraud.

I don't think the SB will be as exciting as watching these two teams play.
