Ball handling point of attack defense and 3 point shooting is important and even more important when like 1.5 other players can do any of those things

Lol everyone saying 'but he's the 70th best player in the NBA how can he be that important' about Fred shown why they were wrong within 3 minutes

KD showing his online brain rot here 'you're actually thinking about this way more than me, I'm not mad at all'. A classic of the Twitter argument genre. And saying Wemby puts more thought into gambling advertising than he - a man who advertises gambling - does, is another reason this guy is trash

Any changes you would make if it was just tournament football you were looking at? Or is that pretty much already what you were focusing on

Think this is quite an astute point, although can also be used to attack a opposition party out in the wilderness being too navel-gazing, but either way it requires your part to be in an ascending position

I guess you could make an argument on this basis that there was so much cut content in OOT that you can bring that to life but a) that became so much of the charm and lore of it is it too sacred and b) it doesn't seem like they are gonna change much anyway

I use Sony 1000XM5. Audio quality is great once you fiddle with the eq a bit and the noise cancelling is a godsend on public transport

Yeah kind of been waiting for people to start pointing this out. I appreciate he is never there but his consituency is a seaside town are peple suggesting it is bourgeoisie to eat oysters by the coast

Very likely he ends up in another election anyway. He resigned thinking it would avoid the standards committee investigating him (and likely triggering a recall) but didn't realise it would just start back up again once he won and it changes nothing about the potential of a recall

Hence me talking more about political angle vs court of law. He's done as a threat to number 10

What he intended to do was spelled out by the undercover reporter and he clearly would know it is illegal considering this comes after the Cotterill story broke (on top of the fact that he should/would as a party leader anyway).

Farage being told to his face they want to hide a foreign donation and him clearly accepting that seems pretty clear cut. It might not get him behind bars since the money never ended up going through, but it's a career ender

Do they count every year though? LIke if he fails in year 1 does year 2 not change?

That being said rich people wanting the most money all the time is hardly uncommon so I guess that's the counter argument

My guess also is these figures are just so massive you just have to say yes. A serious injury and you're fucked. When you are banking 200 MILLION DOLLARS as someone who cannot shoot a basketball I feel like you probably dont feel the need to haggle as much

Its very funny that everyone in the NBA, even media figures, just went along with the assumption you have to give out maxes to everyone and finally a team came along and was just like, no obviously we aren't doing that

Glad he's locked up but as usual with these deals I await the full details. Wonder if there are any bonuses. 3pt one being obvious

Honestly I dont even know how talented he is after athleticism (and a great looking shot tbf). For a pure scorer he never had much handle or ability to generate space. I always thought if you combined Jalen's off the dribble stepback with Cam's stroke you'd have a star

Like let's say North Korea or Russia or whoever starts weaponising ai cyber attacks againt our national infastrucure/security with these soon to come advanced models, what does having 5x or 50x our current data centres do? How do would they theoretically be used?

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 28/08/2026
What would a more aggressive build out of AI data centers that helps UK national security look like? They're all owned/built by U.S private companies I assume, and not signed up to MoD contracts or currently doing anything in this field.

I mean with Inde in particular I don't see why that recognition can't be an Oscar. If Amy Madigan won one for Weapons!

Reed Sheppard is also not at all capable of "scoring from all 3 levels". He is exceptionally limited in the paint. I fear you have made up a player in your head, and have simultaneously imagined he was getting 11 minutes a night

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
It was a contact injury. And I'll refer back to previous answers for the rest. He was in the top 10% of minutes for all NBA players, and had done nothing to warrant any more considering the poor net ratings he had with starters.

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
That clearly wasn't the plan, Durant got injured.

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
He was 58th in total minutes across the whole near 600 player NBA!

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
He played 26 minutes per game I continue to be absolutely baffled the way people act like he was getting 10. A season of angst over a quibble about what, an extra 5 minutes a night?

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
You've cherry picked a pairing with the one guy where the stats look good. A minimum player bench vet who is no longer on the team. As I said earlier 3v3 starter state net negative, 5v5 starter state massive, massive net negative

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
I remember pointing out that while I agreed he was a bad defender our drtg with him on was absolutely fine so he clearly wasnt killing us even if you wanted to give all the credit to the other players working extra hard to cover for his mistakes.

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
I actually remember making this argument about Ben McLemore of all people in the bubble when all of a sudden we weren't shooting 3s at all against the Lakers. I wanted him to play more as he shot a lot and people said his defense would kill us.
100
Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
I don't think you can measure defense individually in any public facing stat we have. The only way I would use stats is team lineup rating as a starting point and use context. If I thought Reed was a bad defender but we were a better team with him on than off I would support his inclusion.
101
Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
OK but that website also says Clint was not only our best defender, he was nearly 2.5x times better than Amen and was in fact the 6th best defender in the NBA. So I'm going to guess it does what all catchall def metrics do and overvalues countable stats because we can't yet measure defense otherwise

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
In 1043 minutes where Reed played and both teams had at least 3 starters on the court Rockets were -0.6 NET. Switch it to 5v5 pure starters v starters it's 127.92 they were -7.2

It's sub 500 play for a 52 win team.

Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
This is an entirely untestable hypothesis. Or, as I would otherwise put it, a pure conspiracy theory. What metrics show Reed is a "fine" defender?
100
Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
This isn't really anything we can debate is it though because it's just something you've made up with no substance behind it. Ime thinks Reed is small but doesnt think Fred is small and you are sure it is nothing to do with on-court performance? Sorry, just sounds bizarre.
100
Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
Good for Reed but the starters had a -6.4 Net rating with him
100
Nathan Fogg @nathanfogg.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
Reed doesnt need to be better than Fred cause Fred is very good, but I'll take him being a good 6th man just waiting to be handed the keys.
