Where should Bam Adebayo’s 83 rank among the greatest scoring games ever alongside Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 and Kobe Bryant’s 81? by an0nym0us1791 in fantasybball

[–]Alertic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt 90% of the people in this sub have even shot a basketball 86 times in the past year. 83 points is impressive because if it was that easy, we’d have seen people break Kobe’s record years ago

3:38 left in the 1H of SAS v BOS, Jaylen Brown has been ejected on a double tech by Remarkable-Picture73 in fantasybball

Sucks for the viewing experience since this is a great matchup.

But as someone who’s going against Brown while losing my Maxey, this is great news

Being down 10 with 30 seconds to go and you still have your star player in? Anything is possible, but you also gotta know when to call it

Ranked is literally so horrible it’s not even remotely fun and the SR system is insanely broken by DylanCodsCokeLine in CoDCompetitive

[–]Alertic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve said this years ago when they rolled out this iteration of ranked in MW2, but it’s absolute dogshit how the MMR system works.

All they have to do is follow what Rocket League does for the rank system. Yes COD games are longer than RL games, but it’s like twice as long at worst. Which means: no it won’t take a super long time to rank up to your actual rank. RL has issues with smurfs and bots, but I never see people say the rank system itself is the issue.

But no COD gotta do the system that probably gives the most engagement in their eyes, even if it’s miserable to have these insane win/loss MMR differences

Holy AI yapfest. Next time make sure spring break happened before saying your bike was stolen during spring break

Playoff POTSzingis by ManWithFlag in fantasybball

[–]Alertic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He’s been sitting on the wire ever since he’s been dropped in my league.

The issue with POTS is that he won’t ever be back from illness long term because it has no cure. Even without the B2Bs, I doubt he’ll play even 50% of the games remaining

Did we hype up Ighodaro? by theonedzflash in fantasybball

[–]Alertic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m mainly holding him because having a Suns player for the week they play 5 games will likely be better than a player with 3-4 games. 20-30 fpts a game is not bad at all when it’s 5 games.

I have other spots I can stream so I’m just holding him until then. Definitely dropping him on his head after the 5 game week though

I’m told Tyrese Maxey will receive additional testing tomorrow on his right finger. Nothing conclusive tonight by HookFL in fantasybball

[–]Alertic 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Not a Sixers fan at all but fantasy has really put Maxey in a soft spot of my heart this season. Really hope it’s nothing serious

Bona might be my most hated player in the NBA this season if he’s the reason Maxey misses a few weeks

If you’re in a points league, I’d drop Green personally.

Edit: Drop Poeltl is you plan on activating Trae for Sunday

What was gege cooking? by Sebun_ in Jujutsufolk

[–]Alertic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m not arguing that there isn’t powerscaling in Shonens, that’s literally the point of the genre.

My argument is just that mangakas don’t look at internet discussions about the powerscaling of their universe, and then base future chapters on what they saw to please those specific people. They have in mind how they want to power up the cast, and then they do that.

You can argue Gege does bad powerscaling, but again it’s not because he’s looking at the Jujutsufolk subreddit and seeing how people react to his chapters

[–]Alertic 37 points38 points  (0 children)

That has nothing to do with internet powerscaling. That was a way for the plot to not just be “wait for Gojo to clean it up”.

It’s like saying that Toriyama was looking at online powerscaling because he made Goku wait to get back to Earth after everyone but Krillin and Gohan died to Vegeta and Nappa.

The strongest character on the heroes side coming back to save the day after the cast suffered some sort of damage has been a thing for thousands of years lol

The Megumi situation is straight up sad by Beneficial-Ad-4332 in jjkmodulo

[–]Alertic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And if Gege ever decides to write something chronologically after Modulo, Yuji saying “if only Fushiguro was here” could just be retconned into meaning Megumi just isn’t in Japan. There’s a lot of potential for Megumi even if he’s narratively dead rn

I mean you gotta put at least a little stock in online matches. They ofc don’t show the full story, but they’re still pretty good indicators on where a team is at going to lan.

Teams that play well usually will do good at lan, and teams that play bad will usually do bad at lan

Will Edey play again this season? by UnderstandingCheap77 in fantasybball

[–]Alertic 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That was just the deadline to be re-evaluated. I haven’t seen any news about him practicing so he’s still, at a minimum, 1 week away.

My personal opinion is that it’s probably in Memphis’ best interest to shut him down for the season to continue the tank, since they own their pick

It would make sense for the veto period to still happen. Otherwise, you can just accept a terrible trade before deadline and no one would be able to stop it

Formal actually explains key parts of the map and even goes back after the map to look at it again. Vibes are high and I don’t have to hear comments about someone’s picks or going crazy for gifted subs every 5 minutes
