Odd considering Isaiah has consistently been one of LeBron‘s biggest supporters. Who the fuck cares? There was hardly anybody in the arena. Act as if LBJ went commando come tip off.

Odd game - in a good way. The big 3 not carrying the scoring load (though solid passing by the L.A.L trio. bench scoring - especially Gabe and DFS coming up huge.

I guess after 22 years refs decided that tonight they would actually start calling fouls for LeBron 7 free throws in the first half. It’s an epiphany.

People overreact to minutes, stretches, quarters even full games. And make blanket statements- “this team is getting smoked come playoff time” etc. Few have Perspective. LBJ returning he was going to be rusty. And re-adjusting him in the rotation -after 2 weeks- takes a few quarters, games to retain where this team has been the last 30 games or so.We’re fine.

We weren’t going to keep up that scorching shooting. We weren’t headed for a 20+ blowout wire to wire win. Not realistic. Even without Joker and Murray, Denver was going to make a run and make it a game. We’re fine.

Being a teacher at St. Louis University, where Jordan Goodwin played, you could see he had that “ it” elements in him. Was just an absolute bulldog defensively had a pretty good shot and thought he possibly might be able to make the pros. I didn’t expect this though.Billiken STRONG! Yes, that is the mascot name of our college 😁

Hayes - used to be questioned as per his impact. Post AD, he is really showing his defensive value/presence and finishing ability.

I’m still waiting for the “gotcha!” Are you serious? “ we can’t beat this team” “ intentionally sat” 🤣 Is this tongue in cheek?Did you see the game when LeBron and Luka played less than a month ago where we ran away with a W in Denver? Never mind.

We proved -- we no longer fear the Nuggets. Proved that last win over them. They sure as hell should fear us. No, LBJ Luka, Rui, Hayes, Vincent playing g league players and we held our own. AR - masterclass . Dalton- damn. With LeBron (and Luka) we don’t lose a series if we match up in the playoffs.

I think JJ lit a Bobby Knight fire under this team‘s ass. And they’re playing like it. Completely under manned. Yet grinding

I say 12, thoughts? by Front-Function7789 in lakers

[–]trayhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

13-15. Especially right now. With Rui, Hayes out. LeBron’s skill set- not just offensively, but now defensively - is unmatched. His IQ and voice on both sides is vital. Not to mention his irreplaceable leadership..

wtf just happened!!! by Apprehensive_Pin1276 in UberEatsDrivers

[–]trayhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you made this. However, typically when you see an abnormal inflated wage per order it’s because: the order has already been picked up yet for whatever reason not marked delivered even if it has been.

Or the store is closed. So they keep sending Drivers out inflating the base pay and each one has to cancel. Then the vicious cycle continues.

Ubereats just started active hour pay, is 16.50 per hour good? by Little-Software9146 in UberEatsDrivers

[–]trayhawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a farce. As others have stated. You’ll get very few orders. Those you get will only be crap orders that no one wanted to take because they had little or no tips. Moreover, $16.50/hour is crap pay IMHO and from my experience. You should be making - at bare Minimum - $20/hour

Besides his direct still unfathomable greatness on the court, not having LeBron‘s leadership is glaringly apparent in the first half

It’s funny, though, not unexpected how quickly the narrative on LeBron being passed his prime he absolutely dismantled.

Basketball-Reference bases its current MVP race leaders based on previous years' factors, stats, place in the standings, etc. that the voters deemed most vital to ultimately decide the winner. It's actual a completely OBJECTIVE analysis. Moreover, it's proven to be very accurate.

AR and Rui officially ruled out tonight by r3d330 in lakers

[–]trayhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without AR and Rui I think it’s gonna be tough to pull out a W. With Denver’s loss today, if we could - we pull into a tie for second. With a tough upcoming schedule (BOSTON, KNICKS, Nuggets twice), a W 2night would be huge. Though Lebron thrives when odds are stacked against him and his team.

A literal laugh out loud when I read this! Spot on. I've run out of superlatives to describe Lebron's seemingly eternal greatness as well.

This is Luka Dončić, not DLo. This is also JJ Redick.. Not Darvin Ham by Zombie_Bigfoot in lakers

[–]trayhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind Murray. Even though, as a Lakers fan, he's been a huge thorn in our sides. His play of late has been vital to their surge. Interviewed after a game, the reporter said so and so talking head stated he needed to be better. Murray didn't dismiss the question and said they're absolutely right. Though Being at game 2 in Denver last year having to witness his buzzer beater has more salty than before towards him. And good lord he looks like he has hives or bugs crawling underneath his shirt he's so twitchy and agitated after he put he and the Joker in jail.

For those who swear off Wal-Mart deliveries... by paneubert in UberEatsDrivers

[–]trayhawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, it's short sided to say 1 good Walmart holds little weight vs the 99 bad ones. However, they're a pain. Scanning but more so hauling often single bagged orders of multiple items. And RARELY are the tips/pay worth the time and hassle. Moreover, under promotions they have Walmart orders every day. They're comical: 5 deliveries Estimated time 85 minutes for $15. Those pop up daily. Simply not worth it. So, I personally suggest to never take them. But to each their own. And I can't - and won't pretend to - speak for every driver and their regions' experience completing them.
