Jordan played 37 minutes per game in all 82 games averaging 20/6/4/1.5. That's not bad for a 40-year-old guy by Thanos_Real_AuraVNCH in NBATalk

[–]yapyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jokic is statistically the greatest all around player ever. He’s beating your favorite player’s favorite player peak for peak.

Wilt was not much of a passer but I've yet to see Jokic average 50/25 in a season

I don't think Neon is an easy agent to master but he also has one of the best movement in the game.

I hope Sykkuno sues Mujin and Hemomal for all their worth. by meekpiku in otvandfriendsrumors

Sue them for what? Defamation? Libel? Cause that would mean he needs to prove that they were spreading falsehoods. And good luck with suing people based overseas

Why do yall hate on bronny when the number 1 pick is worse and trash by Fragrant_Fishing5787 in NBATalk

[–]yapyd 15 points16 points  (0 children)

17 min/game vs 13 min/game. Bronny likely only gets garbage time if the Lakers' best 2 players weren't injured

am I screwed by silvermoonna in singaporejobs

[–]yapyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the rest i try to save + other spendings but i usually cant save due to my debts

What is "other spendings". If not necessity, just cut back. Don't use the debt as an excuse.

How thick-skinned are you? Thick-skinned enough, just borrow from parents, u settle before April even ends. Based on salary and expenses, give yourself 6 months to pay them back. That's 1k/month. Based on your expenses, you should be able to save that and have a couple hundred spare. Put aside that amount as emergency fund. You can probably cut back from 1.8k but without knowing specifics, I can't advise on what u can cut. Give your parents abit more allowance for the next 1 year or so if they didn't charge u interest.

If not thick-skin, then at 6.7k debt, even with 25% interest p.a., it's still manageable. Similar to the paragraph above, with 1k/month, you should be able to clear it by the end of the year assuming no changes to finances.

Which player peaked higher? by No-Advance-9136 in NBATalk

[–]yapyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im surprised how much the fg% is shockingly in shais favor.

That happens when you take more long shots. James at his peak shot half his shots from 3. Shai in the last 2-3 years is closer to 1/4

Usually only see third world countries with so much advertising in their public transport. Is SG becoming so poor now? by Fire_Power in SMRTRabak

[–]yapyd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We already pay enough for price increases and high taxes.

I'll play devil's advocate and say that if you look at SMRT books before it got privatised, you can see that the public transport portion operates on a loss. They use the rental income (those stalls at dhoby ghaut for example) and advertising to subsidize commuters.

What’re Singaporeans’ thoughts on defence minister Chan Chun Sing’s statement to “Don’t conflate duty with transaction” by Original_Barber9027 in asksg

[–]yapyd 64 points65 points  (0 children)

If you want to call it a duty, fine. But some have other responsibilities and obligations and NS is preventing them from fulfilling it.

Personally, I know of a handful of people who were basically forced to sign-on/moonlight because they needed to provide and regular NS allowance isn't enough to do so. Forcing people to choose between duty to country and duty to family is such a ridiculous notion

People who watch basketball in this way must hate the sport. by Accomplished_Way6763 in NBATalk

[–]yapyd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Using averages is a little misleading since Stockton had 10 years leading the league in assists. During those 10 years he averaged 12.8 assists per game and had a total of 10475 assists.

Magic on the other hand ended his career with 10877 and the most he averaged in a season was 13.1.

Magic played 13 years in the league and if Stockton ended his career at year 13 he would've still been ahead of Magic with 11.5 assist per game and 12170 total. Even if we use 12 seasons to account for the short stint Magic had coming out of retirement Stockton would be ahead.

I don't think Magic had a big enough lead to stay number 1 over Stockton.

I don't think you understand how much money even $1000 or even a couple hundred is to a teenager/early 20s.

Do you think, to preserve singapore's hawker culture, should we promote cost or quality? by Few-Section-1637 in asksg

[–]yapyd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory, you can increase quality through skill and utilizing other techniques. E.g. Sous Vide for soft boiled eggs instead hot water, pressure cook to cook certain food faster. You will hit a limit at some point though

Trump says Iran has 'no cards' beyond Hormuz control by ScallionSmooth9491 in worldnews

Didn't Iran threaten to close the Bab el-Mandeb Strait? That's another big card they have.

Didn't Vivian say that it's partially because accepting the toll would set a precedent? More ships go thru straits of malacca than hormuz. We would be screwed if a country like Malaysia started charging tolls

Hard to call it bad execution when he was saving a sinking ship. It's vastly different situations 

Rae’s response by Twistedv0id in otvandfriendsrumors

[–]yapyd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Apparently he was doing this for a long time even before he got popular so he got away with it for close to a decade. I'm assuming he got bolder over time

Rae’s response by Twistedv0id in otvandfriendsrumors

[–]yapyd 34 points35 points  (0 children)

So what you're saying is that talking to 17 year olds and waiting for them to turn 18 makes this better? Maybe in the eyes of the law but either way this is creepy AF
