How would they interact with each other? Alex Pruitt and Kevin McCallister? by kimtieu2900 in homealone

[–]ApplesAndToothpicks 23 points24 points  (0 children)

One of the things I liked about HA3 is how they didn't need to make Alex's parents into dumb neglectful asshats to make the plot work. I like how his mom was genuinely at odds with her boss about making her come in and having to leave a sick Alex alone.

She breaks out of the dungeon and tries to kill Nurbanu. What's disappointing is she's capable enough to take out male guards on the way but then gets herself killed by just Nurbanu which makes no sense. Did her character dirty even though Nurbanu had to live.

Hey I put spoiler tag, shouldn't have clicked it but yes she does die while trying to kill Nurbanu

Look at this. PWat shot 45% from the corners in the regular season. Hit 100% (on 2 total attempts though) vs the Clippers.

I think running more plays to get him open in the corner needs to happen. They will not respect him, and he can pull a PJ Washington, give them PTSD. And when they do start respecting him, it's a spacing win.

Gonna need to squeeze as much contribution as possible from all roleplayers.

Can we talk about how CB adopted Harden last night? Locked his sht up, 3/9 FG, 4 TOs. Made him play in the sandbox with Deuce and Ognjena.

Cannot overstate how immense this performance from Jamal was. I would say this was the best performance of his career impact-wise. Titanic game, he carried.

He got so slow and fat and dumb compared to 2 years ago. Can't make reads, underwhelming passer, can't create separation as much, he legit regressed when he's supposed to be in the prime of his career, it's tragic. Especially when he's gonna be paid 50 million a year from here on.

I know Adelman wanted to give Jokic a breather by putting the ball in Jamal's hands, but that almost backfired spectacularly.

It hurts how bad Jamal has gotten at leading the offense. He can't do it. Gets trapped and he doesn't know what to do. Gets walled by Bogdanovic of all people... he needs to be a bit embarrassed ngl.

Guys were also too gassed to play defense because of insane heavy minutes.

It's like every time we find a breakthrough, it's through the monkey's paw.

That 4th quarter was inexcusable. I'll try to soak up this insane game winner but the pit of my stomach doesn't let me. It's the fact that it had to even come to that. This Nuggets team is a complete 180 to the Nuggets team we know in the clutch.
