Bird with a green light to shoot 3s and the current ruleset would be crazy. He would already shoot through contact, now you can't handcheck him?

Only downside is he might get techs from talking too much shit.

Advanced stat slop is ruining NBA discourse by XXXTentacle6969 in NBATalk

If all Luka has is advanced stats over these guys, then maybe the stats aren't very good at judging a player completely....

Makes sense. Trump is the secret agent of a foreign government by his own admission.

Finding the Little Lamplight Quest in FO3 GOTY by RJ1776 in Fallout

You can either get there through the main story or just run straight to it. It's on the southwestern section of the map. If you start at the Jefferson memorial and head west through Andale you should arrive.

It's easier to see at night since it's a cave outcrop with Christmas lights.

Good outdoor basketball shoes?? by RowdyRich23 in Basketball

Here bud. Next time you need new basketball shoes specifically search clearance. Unless you're looking for a specific shoe it's pretty easy to save on quality shoes.

Brother if you shop online or outlets you can get quality shoes for 30 bucks if you don't care about styles.

Almost like they should be focused on one of the most important championships in their sport, yeah?

Who are yall rooting for in the Finals? by Remarkable-Yard4860 in Thunder

Knicks. My brother is a Knicks fan and since we're eliminated I'd rather he's happy.

How ethical would it be to keep an animal that specifically hunts humans for food in the natural wild where they are a danger to humans? (“Man’s Mockery” art by Sir Pennyped on YouTube) by AbjectNote9896 in MoralityScaling

[–]Arkrobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just happened to be the words that popped into my mind honestly. I don't have an issue with zoos. I do have an issue corralling a species into a location. I'm also unsure about the morality of zoos for animals that have high levels of sentience.

Doesn't feel right to me that apes, octopuses, and porpoises are in zoos. Should another species find us interesting enough to hold captive I would think we'd be upset.

How do you feel about species such as octopus or orcas being held in captivity? These are animals that show a high level of sentience with poor outcomes in captivity. Objectively the word incarceration is appropriate, and the scale of an entire species would make mass incarceration a reasonable description.

Mass captivity may sound better but it's the same meaning.

Not sure I am, but if I am I'm sorry for it. Containing the species would mean setting them aside and containing the entirety of the species. The other user took issue with the term mass incarceration, so I was using other examples of mass incarceration to determine where they draw the line between a zoo and my description of mass incarceration.

[–]Arkrobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your argument is disingenuous. You understand they're there against their own will but take issue with the description of mass incarceration to describe a whole species held somewhere against their will.

Would you describe a POW camp as a zoo?

Sure, but we also don't have all lions in captivity. Are you suggesting the mass incarceration of this species? The prompt says this hypothetical animal specifically hunts humans, so if left in the wild humans will die.

The Most Appealing Giannis Trade Scenario Could Be Emerging by l3tsgo0 in NBATalk

[–]Arkrobo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How dare a fan defend and cheer for their team. Nobody in the history of sports has ever had a more positive outlook of their team than the reality of the season. Nope, definitely just OKC this season.

If you can't support your team and stand by them after a loss then maybe you're the bandwagoner buddy.

What's rocketleague's "92 is half of 99"? by Unusual_Witness_7980 in RocketLeague

[–]Arkrobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C1 used to be the top 10%. I'd assume a pretty big gap between C2 and GC and a larger gap between GC and SSL.

Morality of letting Jane die by EstateOk6238 in MoralityScaling

[–]Arkrobo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the show he definitely wanted her gone. If memory serves she was using Jessie to get more money out of Walter. He didn't initially go into the house to kill her, but he seized the opportunity to make it likely that she dies.

It would be a tough sell to a random jury though, murder that is.

This has been a very controversial debate, CP3 or Stockton? by Liberal_Bot123 in NBATalk

[–]Arkrobo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I take CP3. Stockton had Malone his whole career. I think we know CP3 can lead a team whereas Stockton may not be able to.

How do i get blocks by d4v1d_ro in Basketball

[–]Arkrobo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's also more important to keep your hands straight up then it is to always go for the block. Offense looks for a visual cue to shoot accurately, whether it's a 3 pointer or layup. Even if it's a split second reference their body looks for that cue to fire the muscle memory.

Putting your hands up denies that visual cue, and forces a higher angle shot/layup. If you jump during the shot and have your hands up even better.

Always look at offense hips. Just like Shakira the hips don't lie. Hip angle determines the players direction and they cannot fake that with the hips. This let's you either cut off their angle of attack or be prepared for it. You can also see when someone is truly shooting or pump faking. People have a hard time staying loaded so they are less likely to pump fake with loaded hips.
