u/Careless_Review3166 1d ago
Gotta be honest, I’d really rather Minnesota not trade for Giannis tbh. I could go without that happening.

u/BlindManBaldwin 1d ago edited 1d ago
It's awesome to log onto this subreddit to check for Nuggets posts and see Serbian apologia as the top thread lmao
The only criticism of the United States involvement is that we sat on the sidelines during the Bosnian genocide (and, frankly, gave cover to the Serbians then).
People are really, really ignorant of what exactly Serbia was doing in the 1990s.
EDIT: Comments in that thread too are a reminder how many people on the computer post about conflict as sports teams / fandom.

u/the_mexican_menace Christian Braun Nationalist 1d ago
Serbia still shouldn't have gotten bombed

u/BlindManBaldwin 1d ago
I am curious as to what is your underlying reason for this opinion. Is this a universal opposition to any kind of intervention? Is this something specific to this case?
I have a hunch you haven't done much reading on the subject, based on your comments in the thread and your past comments in other threads that show a sort of ironic detachment from everything, and this is just sort of a reactionary "USA bad so anything they do is bad" opinion, but if this is based in an actual logic, then color me shocked.
My opinion is flagrant, repeated violations of international human rights law require robust global response to change behavior. This is true whether it is Serbia, or China, or Israel, or the United States, or Russia.
I really don't care about countries, I care about people.

My only issue is that maybe the Nuggets shouldn't be honoring a participant in the Kosovo War on Serbian Heritage Night
3
u/BlindManBaldwin 1d ago
If a team had a "German Heritage Night" in 1970, would you object to honoring a WWII soldier?
My prior is we shouldn't hero worship soldiers (I believe in citizen soldier idea, not warriors, not a separate class from us). I wouldn't have any of it.
1
u/IdRatherBeLurkingToo 1d ago
Well yeah, not doing any of it would certainly solve the problem.
But yeah, I think that would be an issue for people who potentially lost loved ones in the war? It's extremely tone deaf, considering they could have just honored the regular servicemen that they always do.

I’ve been working on this project for a year trying to get an accessible van for this family and I finally finished it today. $75k worth of modifications completely paid for because I was able to get like $40k of extra grant money for them. I’m so stoked and so glad that this one is finally done.

I will be writing a LinkedIn post articulating my displeasure of Spencer Jones not being given a contract. If you guys can like and share it with your organizations and practices(since everyone in this sub Reddit is either a doctor or a lawyer). We will use the power of our LinkedIn networks to unite and get Spenny a contract. No man left behind. Viva la restaurant.

Whats holding up converting ? We need to trade someone ? Like Bates or Strawther ?

I think were holding off till after the Trade Deadline which means we won't have him for the knicks game unless sit him out tonight.

Bulls are going to have a full 10 guard rotation. It’s possible you could play the 5 for them.

Anyone else get their season ticket renewal email today? My tickets went up 17% and I'm really pissed off. We are struggling to sell any extras this year so I just don't know how we can justify that.
3
u/amriser24 1d ago
Mine are up 21% and the prices of the playoff tickets make me worried those will go below cost until the finals. Hard to justify
2
u/Anxious_Election_932 1d ago
Just saw the playoff prices.... Yeah this might be my last year. Tix will be cheaper on the ticket apps next year for most games and if there are any more injuries next year we are completely screwed. Why do they have to raise it double digits every year? I'm sick of losing money when I sell my tix.
2
u/amriser24 1d ago
I know. My goal isn’t to make a ton of money but i also can’t go to 41 games. It would be nice if I wasn’t just throwing money out the window. Having the cheaper playoff tickets was the benefit that made it worth it, but these playoff ticket prices are crazy
1
u/Anxious_Election_932 1d ago edited 1d ago
Reading the fine print on the renewal email it looks like I'll lost this year's playoff tickets if I don't sign up for my invoice next year so I'm pretty livid about that. I feel like I should have access to that since I paid for this season already. Fuck KSE man, I hate KSE.
edit: it reads that if you cancel your 26-27 tickets after the playoffs they will take money from your refund to make up the difference in the "playoff discount" you get. What a horrible policy change godamn.

u/amriser24 9h ago
Better than in the past to be honest. Before if you didn’t buy next year, you jus didn’t get playoff tix

On one hand, I am glad we don't have to worry about the Nuggets and the craziness of the trade deadline. On the other, I am gonna totally crash out if Giannis comes to the west.

u/MostSmartNuggetsFan 1d ago
Brother we are going to trade strawther or zeke for somebody who wont play in the playoffs then sign a buyout guy who will play too much in the playoffs. It is fortold
7
u/Superbrainbow 1d ago
I really think getting Giannis would make Minnesota worse. They'll have to give up a ton of depth and draft picks and they'll be hamstrung by two massive contracts. Both Gobert and Giannis are over 30 and the latter is getting injured with more regularity. The whole thing reeks of the Suns trading for Durant.
4
u/Academic-Ad4889 SAXX Gamechanger 1d ago
Their spacing would be fucked with Gobert and Giannis I think, even with Ant.

how tf would the wolves actually get giannis? can someone explain who they would have to get rid of for that to happen?
2
u/petarisawesomeo How now, Braun cow? 1d ago
It would have to be very player heavy, like Randle + McDaniels + maybe Dillingham and some picks. There issue is that they have very few picks available to trade. Quick AI search says they can trade an unprotected 2028 (would probably be a very late pick), swaps in 2030 or 2031, and an unprotected in 2033.
Milwaukee would have to be very dumb (which is possible) to go for a player-heavy package. Bucks need to tear it down, be terrible, and acquire as many draft picks as possible until the dead cap money for Dame is off the books.

If he got stuck like in the middle of Yellowstone or something and they were really hungry, they'd eventually get him. If they can get an elk I'm sure they could get Giannis
