My take we got shortchanged on KP trade.the following as I recall.
1. Nix worried teams would be scared off by KP demands re team and dollars. Ridiculous. No shortage of teams who dont care about these things..
2. Extra baggage of THJ. Same answer.
3. Not exploring other offers shortchanged the nix. Remember Rickets offered FOUR number 1s for Jimmy Butler.
4. DSJ sucks.
Face it, Nix blew and hit way too little for KP. Oh, and no team cared about the rape allegations either.

That Dolan burner account thing is hilarious. Must be a deep fake but it’s pretty good.

I am not going to watch a second of the game tonight and I feel really good about the decision.

I took one law class at Syracuse, Communications Law. Never in my life have I felt a stronger sense of “fuck this.” I barely got through it. I tip my cap to anybody who makes it through law school. My brain is not set up that way at all.

I worked as a middle school teacher prior to law school,

Universally I’ve found school teachers of young kids, take law school in stride much better than anyone else.

Got a much needed laugh out of me. I will reiterate to all potential future employers who may be Knickerblogger commenters that I made this account when I was (I think) 12!

Really hoping you become a judge some day so you can be Your Honor, Thenoblefacehumper.

I’m in my 2nd year of law school in Colorado, so I probably won’t be much help with employment. Otherwise, I’d definitely offer to help out. So if you have interest in taking the Colorado bar, let me know

Law school is a nightmare and I strongly suggest to anybody who isn’t already in law school not attend. A 10-6 job is a cakewalk compared to law school. That said, good luck TheNobleFaceHumper, esquire.

Having completed law school I can confirm this, but I can also guarantee (despite the stress and hours) legal practice is well worth it if you find what you are passionate about within the industry. Unfortunately most don’t work out whether they actually want to be lawyers until they start practising, but hoping it pays off for you in the long run TNFH.

Well… playing devil’s advocate,

You can argue (if you’re Mills/Perry) that you signed these one-year-contract guys specifically to trade them for picks/young players before the deadline.

Maybe that’s even a better strategy that taking on guaranteed dead money contracts for 2 or 3 years? It might work with Morris.

The problem with that idea? Portis. Gibson. Randle. Ellington. Etc.

I have a friend ten years my junior applying to T1 and T2 schools right now. She keeps telling me about how tired she is, working a 10-6 paralegal job for a boutique firm on the UES. I keep responding that she might want to figure something else out before she commits to three years of ultra-competitive hell and a 35-year career of billable hours. Can’t count how many people I’ve seen passed out in their law school textbooks on the train. Hope you’re getting enough sleep, tnfh.

I worked as a middle school teacher prior to law school, and while law school is still as hellish as it seems, there’s nothing that prepares you for chaos and stress quite like staring down hundreds of middle schoolers and realizing you’re responsible for their learning. It has a way of making 7 hours in a silent library not seem so bad.
