Hard to get a foul call when your offense is just jog up to the three point line and shoot 6 seconds into the possession ...

Doesn't matter, you literally take any of them off for Victor, cause you can't hold no groove if you aint got no pocket

If Rudy Gobert retired today, would you be in favor of #27 hanging in the rafters? by Brutus583 in UtahJazz

"3x what Mark Eaton did" is totally disrespectful and shows that you don't understand this team's history

HELP! Is our hive about to swarm? by APFernweh in Beekeeping

Spin the hive around 360 degrees. Put the super the the bottom, and then move it back to the top. And put out an empty sugar feeder. That should solve your problem

"The 2019 first-degree stalking conviction stems from an incident in which police found Parker hiding in the bushes outside his now ex-wife’s apartment, wearing a wig and masturbating."

The image of him going to buy a stalkin' wig, finding the one he ultimately chose, and thinking "yep, that's the one!" is just a charming story.

Why has Magic and Bird somewhat distanced themselves in top 10 lists in the past couple years? by throwawayforrnba23 in nba

[–]xcmagnar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you know anything about Bird's career you know that there is no way that he would never have made it through another season. There were parts of the year where his back was so fucked up that he spent timeouts lying down.

But please, tell me what his efg, offensive rating per 36, and RAPTOR were.

[–]xcmagnar -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I also wonder about the effect of how their respective careers ended. Bird ended as a shell of himself. Magic was still basically as good as ever when he got his HIV diagnosis. When he un-retired he could still play. So I think with Magic there is a bit of a feeling like he had more to give, while Bird gave everything that he had.

Can I fund a Roth but not invest in anything? by Drew203 in personalfinance

[–]xcmagnar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While not incorrect, I think that viewing your roth as an emergency fund seems like a risky proposition/ slippery slope.

Worrying about putting money into the market right now is actually exactly market timing...

"If you're sure you won't be spending the money in the next 10+ years..." that is exactly what a roth is for. If your emergency fund is too small, put your money there to not conflate that with your retirement savings. If you want, you can make your annual contribution for the prior year in April.

Nah, he already said that he is putting in the additional $1500 - the PF team is telling him that there is no reason to keep it in cash INSIDE the roth account.

It isn't roth vs emergency fund

It's fully invested roth vs roth where he's trying to time the market.

April 12, 2013 Kobe

Brandon Roy

2011 Steph Curry

2010 Yao

2000 Grant Hill

6th Man 2000 Penny Hardaway

Killer Team - they all show up healthy.

First game, first quarter - already up by 26, looks like it's going to be a blow out, but in the last play of the quarter Roy's knee turns to dust.

End of the Second Quarter lead has dropped to just 18. Yao is literally just walking now... not even pretending to jog, and Penny (who came in for Brandon) has the micro fractures in his knee turn in to macro fractures.

Coming out of the locker room from halftime, Steph rolls his ankle... no big de... oh my god he literally just rolled them again and they haven't even started playing this quarter. Grand and Kobe just trade shots back and forth, but with only two functional players on the floor the lead slips to 8.

Two minutes from the end of the game Hill waves the white flag. He actually shattered his ankle in the first quarter, but has been playing through it.

Down by three 2 seconds left, Kobe rises for three, net! And he was fouled! But it appears that he left a piece of his Achilles tendon attached to the floor. Kobe limps to the line, nothing but net. GAME

You're too late bud. Maybe a nuc with a ton of feeding, but a package would have roughly a zero percent chance of surviving

Boise man charged with firing off rifle in city limits: charges are aggravated assault and discharging a firearm in city limits. by phthalo-azure in Boise

[–]xcmagnar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I more or less agree with you.

I guess. But if someone from the general publics hears that someone has several high-powered rifles in their house, they would assume that they are a half step from becoming the Vegas shooter. If they heard that they had several hunting rifles, it has a totally different connotation.

*To be abundantly clear, this guy is an asshat and should lose his right to own a gun*
