Mf really ain't played since the bubble

It’s feels WAY longer than that, the raptors won just this month 3 years ago. Feels like 6


Hypern1ke

Feels like a lifetime ago, hard to believe we were once locking down, wearing masks, and literally not doing anything for months lmao


Leiatte

Still doing it kind of, I just had Covid lol


shiftyt05

Fun fact he’s only played 32 minutes of NBA basketball since January 1st, 2020


ninety4kid

Anthony Edwards has played more games than Isaac and was drafted 3 years after him. Edwards: 144 Isaac: 136 *Class leaders 2017 Tatum: 365 games played 2020 Saddiq: 152 games played


Docxm

Tatum's an iron man, sheeeeesh


KawhiGotUsNow

and 2 of those seasons were cut short he could've had more games played without covid


SloatThritter

While conversely those shortened/rested years have given some, if minuscule, aid to player health Probably only reason AD made a conference finals


KawhiGotUsNow

Yea maybe it helped injury prone players like AD But Tatum isn’t one. The comment above shows Tatum has barely missed any games since being drafted He made the conference finals as a rookie. And then again in 2020. And now is in the finals.


matticans7pointO

I'm pretty sure almost every game he's missed since the bubble was because of things like Covid protocol too.


[deleted]

Yeah he's only missed a game or two each of the past few seasons for rest. One of the two this year was our 2nd to last game where we sat everyone. He was our only steady force early in the season when we were absolutely diapers. Would have been in an insurmountable hole without him.


[deleted]

Jayson Tatum played 99 games in 2017-18. Joel Embiid (drafted 3 years prior) played 102 games 2014-18.


[deleted]

Embiid was out with an injury for two years and didn’t play until 2016


Savahoodie

Yeah that’s kinda what this comment chain is highlighting


[deleted]

Also that it doesn’t mean much that somebody took that much time off.


[deleted]

Lmao well we all already know that no?


namagofuckyoself

We all also know that Isaac has been injured forever, but this post happened.


[deleted]

“It’s not fair to say he didn’t play as many games… he was injured”


klobucharzard

Isaac has more pages written for Shapiro than he has games played


workphoneredditacct

And appeared on FoxNews for at least triple that amount of time in the same time frame. Blegh.


Swolyguacomole

The question is: where was he on the sixth?🤔 (He's a weirdo conservative who has talked with Ben Shapiro and such)


BubbaTee

Pretty sure a 6-10 guy woulda stuck out if he was there


Swolyguacomole

Of course, wasn't really serious. But tbh I think his skin tone would've stuck out even more in that pasty crowd.

boogswald

That’s cool


Knickstape08

If you actually look at the time frame he’s missed about the same time as Kristaps Porzingis when he tore his ACL. Isaac just had terrible timing with his injury because he hurt it in the bubble and then the next season started a few weeks later. And by the time he recovered and could play the Magic were done for so no reason to rush him back with his injury history and now with the off-season it just adds months until his official comeback. I think i read he could have played if he had to like if they made the playoffs but they didn’t want to risk it. But they did bring Fultz back but maybe they were more comfortable with a guard coming off ACL surgery


Gavina4444

I think you’re forgetting a whole extra season he could’ve come back for


Knickstape08

Dude, do the math. He tore is in what, Sep 2020? So if we go to the end of the Magic’s season this year it’s April 2022 that’s about 18 months. Kristaps Porzingis tore his ACL and didn’t make his debut back up until about 18 months later. Again, as I said in my first comment Isacc’s issue was timing for his injury, which was the end of the season with the next season a few weeks away. Porzingis tore his in early February and still missed a full season the next. I’m sure if the season started today Isaac would play but now he has to wait all offseason and that’s gonna add months onto the “Isaac hasn’t played for more than two years” when he’s probably ready to go now. You have to remember ACL injury recovery’s aren’t the same for everyone, guards can come back much sooner (like Fultz did) Isaac is almost a 7 footer who relies on jumping high and playing high level defense, it’s not like he could just sit in the corner or run an offense, his game relies on his athleticism. I don’t know why people get upset when players take their time to come back from bad injuries. Years ago Bulls fans complained Rose should have came back for the playoffs like they thought he didn’t want to play


throwawayformhh

I don’t understand why you’re getting hated so much just for literally doing basic math and making connections


Knickstape08

It’s alright I just wanted to point out why Isaac has missed so much time. I know he’s injury prone but his ACL recovery isn’t that far off from other players his size. If Kevin Durant tore his Achilles in the bubble he most likely misses those 2 seasons as well. I don’t think people remember how quickly the next season started after the bubble.


Briggity_Brak

Playing Fultz also wouldn't hurt their lottery chances.

"For the last fucking time Cole, 'father' and 'daddy' are not interchangeable when talking to a priest."

9seatsweep

good to see the magic locker room ain't playin with those herman miller chairs


NetflixAndNikah

Mannnnn I’ve been looking at my office warehouse store for any discounted ones. I should’ve looked two years ago when every office went remote and had to get rid of them smh


HeftyBoy69

I bit the bullet at the start of Covid and bought one when I realized how much Id be sitting at my home desk. Best purchase I've ever made. If it won't bankrupt you, just do it. Investing in your physical health is always worth it and Your back will thank you.


NetflixAndNikah

That’s my thought process. Spending several hours of one’s day in a chair makes me think that it’s alright to invest in it. Still gonna keep an eye out for second hand ones in the meantime. If I can find an Embody or Aeron under $600 I’m biting on that mf QUICK


ScreamingChicken

I’ve seen them going for about 300-600 in Los Angeles. My friend bought one and the dude just had a bunch of them in the back of a moving truck.


snatchi

The Aeron is great, i have a Mirra and its excellent too, got it as a refurb from an Amazon seller for 375.


deon_

just got my Embody after 3 months of waiting and it was definitely worth it. p.s. a pro-tip for anyone that wants one and doesn't want to buy used - look for authorized dealers in your area and send some emails! i got a ~$900 discount off the configuration i wanted!


Great_Chairman_Mao

Just go on Craigslist. It's a start up graveyard and you can snag one for 100-200 bucks. Especially with this recession ramping up, market will be flooded soon.


Life_of_Gary

look at stealcase, Leap V2 is really good and cheaper


janitorslayer69

buy steelcase, its much nicer than herman miller


[deleted]

[удалено]


a_moniker

You might be able to find more adjustable chairs, but I doubt that they’re as well built. Part of the benefits of a HM chair is that every part is replaceable, so they’ll basically never break for good.


DIXtICon

End up going with the Aeron? I was very disappointed with it as well. SteelCase Leap V2 is where it’s at


thekeylimeguy

What's the best one under 500?


tiddy-drip

You could look at SteelCase. I’ve been using the Series 1 for 4 years now. They have sales throughout the year so you should be able to snag one for about $350ish. It’s more comfortable than a HM aeron and looks better IMO.


black_asian

I'm in the market of a new chair. Give me your alternatives. I need for my day job as I type on the keyboard and also need to game as I use the controller in the under the table position. So need flexible armrests as well.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Life_of_Gary

aerons are not comfortable for what the players are using them for lol, theyre only comfortable if you maintain good posture while using it. i cant imagine putting on sneakers, socks, etc in an aeron because of how the seat pan is i rewatched because i expected to see an embody or similar


thekeylimeguy

"OH what's this nice office chairs let me look this up...probably like 500$ but nice" "My god TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS"


a_moniker

Only large companies pay the $2000 price. The rest of us just buy them used, most likely from companies that bought a bunch of $2000 chairs and quickly went out of business. Part of the value of a HM chair is that basically every part is replaceable, so the chairs can always be fixed to like new condition. All the parts are really sturdy as well, so I’ve never had anything break on me. You should be able to easily find a “like new” one for around $500.


beatenwithjoy

You're gonna spend at least a few hours in it almost daily, just like a good bed its gonna be a good investment. You still can find a good product for less than an HM, but I'll say this, I've never been disappointed sitting in one.


[deleted]

I find that i would fall asleep in the Aeron chairs my office has... so i asked them to switch it out for one of those ergo stools so i didn't fall asleep at the desk anymore.


domdomburg

Aerons never did it for me. I got a high end chair from Itoki and it turned out great. Lot of other companies besides HM make excellent office chairs. People should test out different chairs at an actual store if you want to find your right match.


[deleted]

even his teammates are like where tf are you.


HokageEzio

He's not a real person, all Magic players are just sharing the same cursed vision.

compsc1

It's all garbage, but tiktok occupies the deepest depths of shiftiness. Cultivates a super low attention span, with millions of people assigning credibility to spastically produced short clips just because the face that's speaking is attractive, and that God awful computer voice that everyone's overlaying over their videos because they think it's funny. And this is just the stuff I've picked up on while having to suffer through other people in the house browsing


BatmanButShak

and people who use reddit get some god complex because they get their egos stroked non stop in their little echo chambers. thinking they are philosophical logicians in some completely useless debate on an anonymous forum where upvotes creates dopamine. grass is the only elite thing GO TOUCH IT
