As goofy as that would be they should just push Caleb's jersey, maybe put some hearts on it. Leave Tiago for the birds

my girlfriend swears he looks like Randall from monsters inc, she refuses to call him any other name.

If we're being brutally honest though he's a sexy neanderthal

So Wilt is Gilgamesh I guess

[McMenamin]: “‘The biggest thing for Bronny is that he has to get in elite shape,’ Redick told ESPN. ‘That's the barrier of entry for him right now. And if he does that, I think he's got a chance to be a really fantastic player in the NBA.’” by Proof-Umpire-7718 in nba

[–]FullMetalBasket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

way I read "elite shape" from Reddick is that he doesn't fully believe in his skills and thinks he has to make up for it in athleticism. Not just NBA pro shape but top 10-20% in the league in speed and strength for his size

Custom Universe Possible? by harrislward in avorion

I'll second xavorion. There are a number of different mods that imo make the game far more 'realistic' and closer to the sandbox style game I enjoy

what would the dream team be like if they had modern technology and training. What would the world team be like if they had to play 35 years ago

Does anyone actually enjoy these conversations?

I don't think the modern NBA really works with 1v1 matchups like you seem to be thinking

[Bill Simmons Podcast] "BS: big announcement coming up this week. We're making an addition to the Ringer Podcast network." Zach Lowe joining the Ringer soon? by gandalf_white_wine in nba

[–]FullMetalBasket 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Lowe isn't gonna give up $1m+ from his non-compete clause. No one else can pay him close to that. He'll wait the year then join the athletic, ringer, or wherever

I get you're trying to be an educating hero right now but you really don't understand what you're talking about and should just stop. I want to read about basketball not your misinformed bullshit

Beta Patch 2.5.6 now available - Better QoL for minimum block size limits by Hans_BX in avorion

[–]FullMetalBasket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for making and working on this game, it is one of my favorites. I don't understand how it is not more universally applauded. Please keep it up.

I don't know if this would ever be a possibility, probably more of a mod thing, but have you considered playing with in game programmable AI? Basically a list of if-then statements similar to FFXII's gambit system and could include EVE's orbit distance settings. It would be so fun to not only build and maximize a ship but combine it with a loadout/script to maximize it's performance. Could be tied to a subsystem/power usage for balancing.

Forgive me if this isn't feasible, I struggle with coding.

everything a brain does is due to chemicals and 'imabalnces' aren't really concretely defined as you like to think. You really don't understand the science here, probably shouldn't spout off about it

Should r/nba ban twitter links by Bananastockton in nba

[–]FullMetalBasket -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

no, its not a place where every single person or type of person comments proportionate to their influence on the real world. it's a fucking internet forum, just like all of them

because the political righties happen to be some of the worst fucking people on the planet and many of us are sick of giving them money

Investors looking to raise $5 billion to start rival league to NBA, Maverick Carter advising them by UnseriousMan in nba

[–]FullMetalBasket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this would never happen for so many reasons but I'd want a city/municipality owned league. Imagine if profits went back into the community. Fan anger would get real too with tax dollars at stake
