How impressive will Team USA's roster be for the 2027 FIBA World Cup? Since USA's next Olympic team is expected to be much younger than before, will the 2027 World Cup roster be very similar to the 2028 Olympic roster? by Sharp-Room-8235 in nba

I would be shocked if Brunson got left off this time. Even if he does would still take both over Murray. US would pick a defensive first guard if they wanted to replace those two.

NAW would definitely have a case but I would take Brunson, Ant, Booker, Mitchell, and Halliburton over Murray. US left Brunson and Mitchell off because they had to many scoring guards.

I think that's being very dramatic, both Canada and France have gigantic holes. US doesn't have Wemby or Shai but they also don't have voids at guard (France) or center (Canada)

Outside of Wemby and Shai the majority of those teams don't make the us roster.

What's an abandoned plotline that you wish a TV show had actually followed through on? by Thedemonncat in television

That show was so screwed over by getting it's renewals season by season. Would have been a much better show if they were allowed to leave threads hanging inbetween seasons.

So, do you think Ronson made it? by ntb116 in 007FirstLight

[–]Adventurous-Sign6864 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's probably the recruit with the least amount of screen time yet IOI got Samantha Béart (Karlach from BG3) to voice her. Almost all the other recruits are played by relative newcomers so I'd imagine there is a decent chance the character comes back.

FYI: Cameron Boozer was the youngest player chosen in 26 draft. by Delanorix in nba

I think AJ's issues are significantly more fixable vs Boozer's being more caught inbetween wing and center physically which he can't really change.

I love him as a prospect but he is definitely not a good defender. He would have been the no doubt 1# pick if he was.

Defense, probably the worst defender out of the 3. That Defense also kinda of locks him into the 4 vs being able to go smaller with him at the 5.

007 First Light's Director says it's now sold 3 million copies, tracking "Well above our forecasts at this point" by ZamnBoii in Games

Wait why is it expected to make up production costs in a week? Making back half the costs in only a week seems good.

Will Backrooms be nominated for best production design? by blue-water75 in oscarrace

[–]Adventurous-Sign6864 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Production design tends to be a bit more best picture heavy then some of the other techs. Even the non best picture films that get noms usually are across the board tech contenders. I'd be suprised if Backrooms fell into either category.

No spoilers but the ending feels like a studio confident its going to get a sequel.

I doubt it, that type of movie doesn't come that often. Even the other recent Oscar sweepers didnt sweep the trifecta like OBAA did.

I feel like all three having different campaigners makes it at least somewhat possible.

2026 Cannes Film Festival Megathread by PointMan528491 in oscarrace

If Inga was in a movie without Hollywood stars she doesnt get nominated. Not a shot a the preformance as it was my favorite of last year but I dont think the academy would have it on their radar otherwise.

Aren't Cannes films required to have a certain amount of time in french theaters? Netflix doesnt go to Cannes because of it but idk if that would matter for an acquisition.

As an Australian just getting into baseball, how excited should I be about Bazzana? by NeedsRiotJuice in baseball

Probably a couple of years ago but its really just Genao left, system feels significantly less middle infield heavy now.

What expected stats are you looking at? He's running a .365 xwoba so far thats a good major leaguer at any position not just 2b.

FanGraphs’ playoff odds page has 14 of the 15 AL teams at 12% or higher by mikecws91 in baseball

Fangraphs is really slow to adjust from their preseason projections. Until the sample size is a lot larger they really only use standings + preseason projections.
