@NBA_Scout_AI I never said it wasn’t a skill. “Great players get calls” isn’t an explanation, especially when only a specific style of contact gets rewarded.

@calisurf It can be proven by anyone who has a strong historical knowledge, Andy.
Drawing fouls is a skill.

I mean, it really isn't.
They aren't gifted with calls any more than any great team in history. Curry got FTs on landing zone 3s. Lebron couldn't be breathed on. Kobe shot a million FTs.
They have all the championship qualities and the game's best driver of the basketball.

Thunder fans are understandably outraged by their team’s reputation, but it’s hard to imagine the Thunder’s long-term legacy being anything but this. Every time they’re on national TV, this is the discussion. Several opposing coaches have given their version of the rant below. OKC is very good. Probably going to win a second straight title. SGA is probably going to win a second straight MVP. But they are a truly difficult viewing experience.

Sums up OKC in a nutshell, “gamesmanship” - just an absolute brutal watch!
New York Basketball@NBA_NewYork
Brown: "OKC fantastic getting officials to think foul…gamesmanship off charts…SGA best…I got T'd, they still shot 38 FTs…so can't waste energy on refs. [Instead] let's yell at each other: 'Box tf out' 'Take care of tf ball'…things you have to do on road to beat r good teams"

@CarolWalshReal1 A lot of great hiking and biking in that area...
English
Local tip:
If it's cold in Carmel drive inland on Carmel Valley Rd.
The fog burns off and it gets warmer the deeper you get into the valley.
If you can swing it stay at Bernardus, that place is amazing.
Go hike Garland Park, views for days.
Need more? Hit me up!

@JulieChangRE Rent is ceiling, mortgage is floor of what you pay.

This place is Jekyll and Hyde
Renters hating landlords- usually
Vs this post is
Renting is great. You don’t pay interest, property taxes, insurance, things breaking, maintenance , end of life replacements, no downside risk, and you have optionality of just moving

Just realized something that honestly made me stop for a second… $2,000 rent a month. That’s $24,000 a year. Stay there 5 years… that’s $120,000. Gone. No ownership. No asset. Nothing to show for it. Just paid to exist somewhere. That’s actually insane when you really think about it.

@JulieChangRE At a certain equity level it stops being a home and starts being a portfolio allocation decision. Most people just never make that mental shift. YMMV.
English
Unpopular opinion
The people with the most equity dont need it
The people who need to tap it and use their houses as ATMs might end up upside down if housing values fall further
If you can't afford your lifestyle, sell
Colin Robertson@mortgagetruth
$10.7 TRILLION in tappable home equity. 97% of it untouched. And locked in at 2-4% on a 30-year fixed. Wild.

Every year there’s more excuses for why Jokic isn’t the MVP but come on, what are we doing? I’d love to see JB win it, but really?

Hornets were absolutely terrible in 4th quarter! Chucking up three’s while in bonus. Trash.

@danrejto Funny how "helping farmers" always seems to mean helping corn and ethanol processors in Iowa, never the dairy farmers I grew up around in Vermont. Almost like it's about primary politics, not farmers.
English
$38 billion. That's how much EPA estimates its new biofuel mandate will cost society. Yet the politics of redistributing money to farmers keeps this policy going.

Trump is paying a foreign company nearly $1 BILLION of YOUR money to stop building wind farms in America that would have lowered your electricity bills.
He lost in court FIVE times trying to kill these projects that would have powered over a million homes. So he decided to buy his way out of it instead.
Yes, you heard that right. The President of the United States is literally spending your tax dollars to make your energy bills more expensive.

@GaryWinslett This made me the most upset last year:

I don’t know if this is happening in other places, but around where I live, there’s this really interesting dynamic where if a developer wants to build housing, the locals fight it tooth and nail, but if they want to build a self-storage facility, that’s nary a peep opposed. 1/2

Trump is objectively bad at running the government, but he’s objectively good at running a Klan rally, and his supporters value the latter so much that they forgive the former.

Sato delivered a very clear message that things need to change, or Toyota, the world's largest car company by sales, "will not survive."

Chinese automakers are gaining quickly and setting a new standard for manufacturing costs. Software is becoming a core part of cutting-edge vehicle. The auto industry has seen more upheaval in the last few years than it did over the last several decades.
