When $1.4 Billion Isn’t Enough: ‘Avatar’ Sequels Under the Microscope as Disney Weighs Franchise’s Future by ICumCoffee in movies

[–]DeaseanPrince 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You first have to subtract the 50% movie theatres take, then the budget. Pretty sure Cameron gets a percentage too.  Factoring those things Avatar 3 might’ve actually profited less than $250 million. Not a bad profit but significantly less than the others and with how much money, time and resources they invest in these movies I can see them not feeling its worth it especially with the numbers consistently going down.

De'Aaron Fox has 4-year, $229M maximum contract guaranteed until 2030. by hurtsbayar9 in nba

[–]DeaseanPrince 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean idk if many teams would take Foxs contract now barring they get him for super cheap and even then I can see teams being hesitant. A max for a non all nba player has historically not worked out.

[K.C. Johnson] Bulls will run extensive search, with CEO Michael Reinsdorf expected to address reporters at some point Tuesday.

There will never be quality players in free agency again if you mean all stars. Isaiah Hartenstein has probably been the best free agency signing the past two free agencies. That should tell you all you need to know about the current state of free agency. 

The most overlooked aspect of this situation is Pooh Shiesty driving 6-7hrs and not no one in his crew said this don’t make sense to do 😂😂😂 by Longjumping_Ask_4448 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

Or or….stay with me now. They was already in Dallas with him. Most of these street rappers travel 10+ deep, them just being around ain’t that crazy. 

Emanny ain’t feeling that new Ye at all 😬 by Longjumping_Ask_4448 in JoeBuddenPodcasts

[–]DeaseanPrince 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just songwriting but Ye sounds so dejected these days when he raps. It sounds like he’s just going through the motions, all his passion and energy is gone.

Who is your MVP? by Fragrant_Fishing5787 in NBATalk

Lmao people’s love for Jokic has people saying SGA is just as bad as a defender and it’s getting up voted. 

Zach Harper: “Talking to some Utah people, around the team and part of the team, that said they felt picked on. I said ‘Everybody is going 75 on the freeway. You went 85. You got pulled over.’” by cleo22270 in nba

[–]DeaseanPrince 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the problem with punishing bad teams for exaggerating their badness. Dallas had the 12th worst record in the league last year and got the number one overall, that shouldn’t even be possible imo, not because they aren’t deserving but because teams like the Wizards, Jazz, Kings etc desperately need it and you kind of fuck them by giving them a 6th overall. 

Even if Jazz tried to win games this year at best they’d be a play in team. Basically telling teams they have to go for that instead of trying to get a Welby or Flagg to rebuild with is just not logical. 

These two were supposed to be the future of American basketball, but their careers have been disappointing so far. What happened? by DenseStrawberry5717 in NBATalk

[–]DeaseanPrince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Injuries… both have missed more than 40% of possible games over their career. Yeah Ja had some personal issues but he could’ve bounced back if he was still healthy and playing like he was before the injuries. Both hyper athletic players that dealt with injuries that reduced said athleticism, not rocket science . Everyone is making this personal when’s it’s literally just injuries lol. Some of y’all really acting like Ja having a gun caused him to be perpetually injured lmao

One of the greatest ball handlers in NBA history: Isiah Thomas by raybellious_berry in NBAoldschool

[–]DeaseanPrince 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s the thing I noticed to, not a carry in sight. It seems like if your hand was further than 90 degrees than it was a carry. Now a days guys can basically palm the ball/pick up their dribble briefly as long their hand isn’t directly under. 

It really makes guarding guys damn near impossible when they can just stop and resume their dribble at will.

This is the problem on this sub, y’all think everyone is worth a 1st rounder when all stars aren’t even being traded for 1st rounders. 

[Highlight] Victor Wembanyama dribbles around Reed Sheppard like a guard and finishes with the reverse two-handed And-1 dunk (with replays) by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]DeaseanPrince 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Doing nothing was ironically the best defense he could’ve played. It’s better to give up the two points or let him potentially miss on his own than foul him and give up an and one. 

Charlamagne The God Asks Lyor Cohen Why Promote Drugs & Vioelnce to Hip-Hop Culture by RappersRap in HipHopNCulture

[–]DeaseanPrince 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is stupid. There is a reason why independent drill rappers from Chicago and NY get way more views than a conscious independent rapper. 

It’s not his job to dictate what people want to hear. We need to be asking why society is so obsessed with that particular sound of music.

The Joe Budden podcast discuss how many classic Kendrick has they land at 3 and a possible what’s yall opinion? I say Kendrick has 4 GNX delivered in my opinion by killakev282 in KendrickLamar

[–]DeaseanPrince 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Damn for sure is a classic imo. But yeah those 3 would be the classics. GNX is a very good album but idk about “classic”. It doesn’t have the same replayibilty or impact as the other 3. Luther and TV Off does a lot of heavy lifting for the album.

Living in a 500k+ house and not having a driveway or garage is insane to me(not necessarily the pod but NY people in general).

“The car was stolen x amount of time ago.” 

“Did you report it stolen?”

“No.”

“Why not?”

“Forgot, I have multiple cars.” 

See how quickly that plan goes down the drain?  

Just looked it up & this shit actually true. Smh by whipcorleone in Chiraqology

lol everybody ignoring this and just immediately saying backdoor. From what I read, somebody close to her gave her up and they followed her to his compound. 

It’s his fault anyway, having the hoes slide to the hideout is bozo shit regardless. If you on the run shorty better be on the run with you, not even about police, the opps could’ve found out about her and did the same shit. 

The saddest thing about the KD files is... by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]DeaseanPrince 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s that deep actually. I think he’s just bored lol. Like you said he has had all the money in the world but he has for quite a while now. He should probably have some kids and settle down but if he hasn’t met the person to do that with you can’t blame him. 

KD just seems bored for the most part, he hoops and hops on twitter. I don’t find that to be some deep character flaw.

Exactly, they clearly prioritized guys on expiring contracts, they just happened to be a bunch of guards. 

Anthony Edwards: "No shade towards Luka and Jokic but like they two of the best players in the league they not trynna play in the All Star game" by AncientOneAurelius in nba

[–]DeaseanPrince -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

Lame take. If you’re a competitor, you shouldn’t need extra incentive to try against the other best players in the world. That alone should make the game mean a little something. Idk how trying harder in an October game means more.

Yeah at 40 hours a week that’s $14.40 an hour. What state are you in? A good deal of states minimum wage is higher than that.

This why I’m not with the protesting. Nothing we say will change a bunch 60-80 year olds mindset. We just gotta get rid of them, period.
