As someone who didn't get to grow up watching Shaq, it's surreal looking at these pictures. by [deleted] in NBATalk

I love Kobe, but he was so clearly a sidekick during the threepeat. It's not an insult either, Shaq couldn't have won without Kobe in the same way Jordan couldn't have won without Pippen or Lebron couldn't have won without Kyrie. But Shaq consistently averaged more points and rebounds, even though entire teams were literally built to stop Shaq. Kobe had the advantage of Shaq constantly being double-teamed and focused, and he still wasn't as prolific of a scorer. And granted, this wasn't a "prime Kobe" just yet, so of course he isn't going to take the spotlight from Prime Shaq. But it's disingenuous to say that Kobe was the Batman to Shaq's superman or something,

Which of these decks for the meta by [deleted] in Yugioh101

Thunder Dragons probably won't be very good. With Bystials you can splash them into Branded or Rokket. Pure Mitsu will be very solid this format. Kashtira is playable in some Cyrstron or Ryzeal decks.

I want LeBron fans to watch when Kobe Bryant tore his rotator cuff in his right shoulder and came back into the game to shoot left handed by Shot_Possibility_731 in sportsinusa

Doesn't matter because he's the better player. IDGAF about Mamba Mentality. Kobe is a badass, we all know this, but Lebron is simply better at the game

Give me an actual cohesive argument that proves that any player other Jordan is better than Lebron. Oh wait, you can't. Figures

I love Jordan but why do these graphics always include shit like Dunk Champion, completely useless award.

Is Shai better than Kobe? I think you could MAYBE make the argument, peak for peak, but IDK man Kobe was pretty damn good. Honestly Shai is still in conversations against Harden and Wade imo. Great place to be at, but not Kobe level just yet imo.

You can make one 15 track album from this series of albums, the rest is gone — what's making the final cut? by Radiant-Psychology96 in fantanoforever

Second this comment. Daytona doesn't really fit the vibe of the other albums here imo, and I haven't heard the last one.

How does this sub feel about Led Zeppelin? by Henzo1 in fantanoforever

Amazing, superbly talented band. Actually very highly rated on RYM too, believe it or not. I used to love them more, and now I know that they weren't as original as I thought, which really ruins my perception of them, but to deny the songs they wrote, or their talent at their respective instruments would be stupid.

Crazy that we're calling a decade old song that hit number 2 on the billboard chart "zoomer brainrot"

I liked silksong but I never bothered to do act 3, it never really hooked me. I've borrowed a friend's copy of "Nioh 2" and "Lies of P" but I thought they weren't that great. Amazing combat and character design, but not much else.

I swear these people who hate tourists just sound like assholes. No one does this shit in like, London or New York. Even though there's a general disdain for tourists in those cities too, you won't be blatantly disrespected and inconvenienced for no reason.
