    I was hoping we could make some moves to at least have a real good shot at the playoffs.

    As is this team doesn't have much of a chance to make it.

    I think right now the Mavs FO is completely hoping their improvement in the win column comes from Zinger returning and Luka improving. If they had even a semblance of a plan the playoffs would have been realistic this year.

  2. The moves the Mavs have made so far I don't have any real issues with. Curry is fine at the price and Maxi is too. What really bothers me is how woefully unprepared the Mavs FO seems to be. They had plan A in Kemba and just seemed to wing the rest of yesterday. You have months to prepare for the players and scenarios you want. The FO looked like utter idiots in both trade scenarios with the Heat/76ers and because they didn't have any clue about the landscape of FA they lost out on basically every backup plan they should have gone after.  Too busy eating dinner I guess.

  3. Looks like it'll be a Pat Bev + one offseason. Disappointing considering how bad the FA class looks next year. Hoping that we get Brogdon or Harris but looking unlikely. 

    I'd be ok with Boogie on a short contract plus Bev. Team would be fun to watch and compete for a playoff spot in the west next year.

  4. Just did this trip as part of a 3 month Asia trip from Feb-April. 

    People have covered Tokyo (lived in Seoul for 5 years and it has a very similar vibe) but I'd also really recommend Sapporo as part of a larger trip. Hokkaido has the best snow on earth during the winter and has plenty of nature/fishing during the spring/summer.

    Unemployment isnt bad now, but my company has been steadily hiring H1B visa holders for close to the last 10 years..As many as they could get, even when unemployment here was bad...

    Get better at your job.

  6. Lived overseas after UT for 5 yrs. Has always been in the back of my head to do it again. This version of America is certainly the ugliest of my lifetime. I've generally lurked from Shaggy to Surly but have gone full on Brisket mode with this administration.

    what do you have against john rhadigan?

    Clearly, you do not watch Rangers games. The Ranger fan base is still trying to recover from the case of Rhaids in that short stint as our PBP announcer. 

    "It's a caught!"

    "Saddle up baseball, you're going for a ride!" - home run call. Usually came a minute or so after the ball cleared the fence because he had no idea to gauge distances.

    Every ball hit into the outfield was sliced.

    "It's time to play ball ya'll."

    I can't listen to him on the ticket because it gives me PTSD.

     

  8. Headed back to Niseko in Feb. after spending the best 5 days of powder in my life 3 years ago. I've been almost everywhere in North America minus Whistler and nothing has even come close to Japan. It's a huge trip but really needs to be a bucket list item for any serious powder hound.
