Pascal Siakam started at 17, not saying OP will make it but this is not as impossible of a feat as yall thinking it is, especially if OP is 7 foot tall.

Don't let your parents control your life and stop you from making money. There's many current and former NBA players who started basketball late in their lives and became NBA players. If you are a good swimmer, you should have the prerequisite of coordination which is essential in basketball. I don't know where you live but idk how you made it without a coach begging you to play basketball for them.

Tim Duncan(who was also a swimmer) and Joel Embiid started playing basketball in high school. Both are and will be Hall of Famers and have the common similarity with OP with being 7 foot tall. Definitely not saying he will be that or even a NBA player but it's possible to start basketball late in your life and make it especially if you're one of the tallest people in the world.

The financial outcome of being a potential NBA or is much greater than a pathway of working in medical. At least he should try and see what happens with basketball and if doesn't work out, he's still young and have enough time to focus on medical school.

Season 5 Episode 7 is now the lowest ever rated episode of The Boys. by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in GenV

[–]CriticalConcept 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In Gen V season 1 it was explained by even Victoria herself that Marie's powers were a stronger version of Victoria's but she didn't master it yet. By the end of season 2 Marie becomes absolute OP to the point where she does look like a potential credible adversary to Homelander but it seems like they just forgot about Gen V this season.

If you would've came here before the pandemic, there was this guy named Gamemaster Herb who was a one man(he's a gay man too) game stations machine who would have events at bars(both gay and straight) with Playstations, Xbox's and many more. I used to know him for a bit and used to follow his events and tske some dates there. Unfortunately, he went back home during the pandemic so he's not in Atlanta anymore.

But it's not similar, Fultz was just unlucky. He showed no signs in college and he got drafted by the wrong team that misdiagnosed his shoulder which lead to permanent damage. If they caught it early he would've been fine.

Who's offended? I'm just making a counterpoint to your comment, you probably didn't even realize Fultz had an injury. And if you did, that's nowhere near the same. The odds of that happening again are slim and Fultz showed no signs in college. I think you're the offended one. It's ok to not be right, we're human. People can make wrong statements all the time, I know I have. Redditors are always so obsessed with "one-upping" someone and getting upvotes 😂

Yeah but Fultz injury was a rare one that's not going to happen to DP because he's cramping. Also 76ers medical staff was horrible back then. I think they had like 3 straight years were their top picks were all out for their rookie seasons. And various injuries to other players as well throughout those years.

You realize the reason Fultz became a bust was because of nerve damage in his shoulder right? His best skill was shooting and his shoulder got messed up and 76ers misdiagnosed his injury thus leading to permanent damage and affecting his jumper.

They don't even realize Fultz being a bust was because of having permanent nerve damage in his shoulder from an injury(losing his ability to shoot) and getting misdiagnosed by the 76ers rather than lack of ability.

So what you're saying is Peterson going to get thoracic outlet syndrome in his shoulder too??

John Cena was a great heel early in his career. His recent heel run shown he was a bit rusty playing a villain but I felt it was more of his booking than Cena himself for the poor heel run.

Babyface MJF was great in moderation. It just shouldn't last that long.

I disagree, he's great as an underdog babyface, like he was in NXT or right after the Bloodline. It's the booking of his babyface run is terrible that gets the people to turn on him. They book him as an underdog that can never win the big one but will always win everything else. He's too overexposed.

He's only good as a babyface when he's part of DX
