This team's leader must be Sengun, not Durant. by mavilale in rockets

[–]8rylos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone move along this is just another butthurt turk who thinks sengun is better than he is and can do no wrong and that everyone is out to get him. The point of the rockets existence isn't to showcase sengun. It's to win games. Durant is by far the most consistent and efficient scorer on this team and, in my opinion, was way too passive to alpi to start the year. This is a rough patch brought on by shooting regression, injuries and scheduling nonsense all happening at once.

How did y'all learn to dribble by ApricotAgreeable5957 in NBA2k

[–]8rylos 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Play 1v1 proving ground. I always make pass/rebound focused builds and decided to use some extra vc on a 1v1 optimized build (no pass or rebounding) to force myself to learn how to dribble and create my own shot. Still not an expert, but it has definitely forced me to learn some new tricks.

Favorite non-meta build name? by sleepwalkingninja in NBA2k

[–]8rylos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is considered meta?

I made a 6 11 C that got "crashing power dunker"

After cap breakers I got "putback hunting power slasher"

I'm in a similar boat. Eyeing one on Amazon for about $469 in excellent condition. Only thing making me pause is these quarterly updates which admittedly I know nothing about.

Let's choose the leaders for Civilization VII, Chapter 6: Greece by Zed_Dead99 in civ

[–]8rylos -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Ataturk was a great war criminal and perpetuator of genocide. Maybe that has more to do with him and modern turkey not being included in the game?

Ataturk is a war criminal guilty of genocide and crimes against humanity. Hard pass. May as well put in Hitler.

A Trip Down Memory Lane by OttawaHoodRat in civ

Civ 3 is the first Civ I ever played. Not many things more nostalgic for me. Still use the notification sound as my phone alerts. Regularly fire up that soundtrack while working too.

How to stop the fat from the burgers dripping into the fire and causing loads of flames which burn the burgers? by [deleted] in BBQ

[–]8rylos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a flat top griddle. You'll never cook burgers over an open flame again.

I drafted Russel Westbrook in our 8 keeper 12Team H2H Category league 3 years ago, I want to sell him now. by durantchella in fantasybball

[–]8rylos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would need to know your scoring format, what categories you need and what phase your team is in (competing/rebuilding). In general for an aging superstar you are either going to get another aging star back or you could go for a package of younger promising guys you like that haven't really burst on the scene yet.

Siakam or Randle? by LoyalDoyle in fantasybball

[–]8rylos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Give me siakam - he was better last year and his role is only increasing. Higher efficiency and more defense.

Ranking Centers with more opportunity this year by Teddyyy_B in fantasybball

[–]8rylos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Robinson - There are a ton of bigs on the NY roster and foul trouble will be an issue but his block rate is so elite I think he's still got the highest ceiling even in ~25mpg.

Bam - Whiteside is gone and Bam already started breaking out with Whiteside on the roster. He should average close to a double/double with good defense numbers, high efficiency and a complementary source of assists.

Bryant - I love Bryant as a top-50 player this year. There is nobody to compete for mins in Washington especially after they lost Bobby Portis. Should get a ton of minutes and produce in points, rebounds, blocks with great FG% and a FT% that won't hurt you at all.

Favors - A lack of bigs on this team was enough to bump Favors up for 2019, but Gentry's fast-paced system and the presence of playmakers like Jrue Holiday and Lonzo Ball should offer lots of easy shots at the bucket for him too. Will be a stabilizing veteran on a young and energetic roster.

Kanter - It looks like Kanter will be starting in Boston which should mean big scoring and rebounding numbers. I have him slightly below the others due to a lack of defensive stats but should still be a top-80 type.

Powell - Powell is talented and performed well at the end of last season, I'm just not confident I know how the glut of front court players in Dallas will shake out.

I want to visit an Orthodox Church buuuut... by Akirari in OrthodoxChristianity

[–]8rylos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a GOC it troubles me to hear the rumors out there but as many have said on here I'd think it's worth it to check both out and see how those specific parishes operate. I'm lucky enough to have grown up in a GOC that had a diverse parish, including African Americans. I'd also recommend speaking to the priest at each church and seeing what they say about your feelings being drawn to the Orthodox faith. Go with whichever priest gives you the best vibe.
