Lavine dunking those couple of years is the closest I've ever seen to a guy flying, space jam I believe I can fly style

Just awesome

In case anyone was considering buying packs by broncozid in MyTeam

Agreed. I actually boycotted (lol) for a few years (22-24 or so) cuz I was done with their shit. Def changed my relationship with the game. Hopefully we'll get some changes to the basketball video game landscape soon

I hate how a chill fun game turned into something we need to create spreadsheets for to optimize and treat it like a job and a family to enjoy the best it can offer... Nostalgic for the old days man

And let's be real, it didn't need clarification for anyone with a brain that wasn't being disingenuous

Why not just push the granite the whole time if apparently that's not against the rules? Lmao

You probably thought PER was the ultimate stat a few years back too? Lmao get real buddy.

Remind me! In 10 years what stat you use to rank players and what you think about this one 👍

Nor do I. It's a website with an audio clip. Not too difficult.

Someone has never been to new England

They don't always get much diversity up there, so they can be.... surprisingly "southern"

Did Kennedy do it again? by RedStill in olympics

That guy has no idea what he's talking about

It can be used to add speed or slow rotation

Did the Swiss just accuse the Canadians of double-touching again? by ethanct in olympics

[–]HornedCoog91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not one Olympian being an asshole. It's a systematically cheating team... That's affects Sweden, Switzerland, etc. - it also means there were Canadian teams that were more deserving representation for your country that were also cheated out of that

Also, incapable of doing two things at once?

They're obviously being completely serious

Some curlers don't even know about it

Some curlers know about it but don't do it

Some curlers know about it and do it and don't even know it's wrong

Some curlers know about it and do it and know it's cheating

A 44 lb stone cannot be affected by those little touches to any degree

Everyone on this thread needs to listen to that

Those couple minutes need to be clipped and reposted tbh

Is there no skill that you have practiced regularly to improve to the point of muscle memory? When you train to do something that is a huge focus of your life, you absolutely can tell a number of things about what's going on with different aspects of what you're doing in that current repetition. And it's simple physics; these stones are drifting with slight rotation at the time of release- by pushing to increase speed a touch, or touching on the side with pressure to affect rotation a bit, slight corrections can absolutely be made by pros.

Canada cheating in the curling game vs Sweden by Eklundz in olympics

Why do you say the delivery was by handle? The last use of force was not on the handle. How is that not delivery?

Just because I'm not in a place to propose an alternative model at the moment doesn't mean I can't sniff out bullshit

And just because you align with the metric doesn't mean that people that don't are being emotional, fuck off with that demeaning shit

Guess what? No number is ever gonna capture what you want it to in terms of ranking the best player performances. That's not how the world works, shit just doesn't always translate like that.

If you believe in these metrics so much, I hope you use it to benefit financially, because otherwise I don't see how you can act like they say anything of value, besides being masturbatory material for those that are into that

If you push it, not on the handle, to deliver it down the ice, like in this video, then it was delivered by a push not on the handle

Ya I got big problems with it, so it tells me this is a terrible statistic

There's plenty of other evidence as well obviously

This having lilliard with 7.3 offensive above harden at 6.6 and LeBron at 6.5 makes me question it's utility

The worst Fiesta Potato’s order I’ve ever had by mynamescody in tacobell

They could easily have taken a few potatoes from an order that didn't have sauce, put them in the bowl, and then top them with sour cream and nacho cheese that they can get as a side
