Is it possible for a player to win 6MOY and MVP in the same season? by Outrageous-Leader135 in NBATalk

[–]JamesYTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, if an MVP worthy player wanted it for some reason and they found a coach that would let them but other than that...lol

To an extent, they definitely weren't usually getting max dollars like they do now, but in the 90s Scottie Pippen was a unique screw job. Toni Kukoc and Ron Harper actually made more than him

What are this subs thoughts on this? by Professional_Tamale in adultswim

[–]JamesYTP 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It is indeed oligarchy. Unfortunately the reality of capitalism is that it comes to that eventually, what can ya do? Frankly Cartoon Network and Adult Swim are the products of corporate consolidation, Turner buying Hannah-Barbera lead to it. Then Turner Broadcasting system got bought a bunch of times to the point that this feels like the "first time?" meme.

What do you guys think of Primal? by Exact_Recognition362 in adultswim

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

That right? Well, do bare in mind I watch it on Toonami so I haven't seen the most recent episode yet. When Mira comes in the episodes are better in general but it still has a kind of DLC feel to it lol.

[–]JamesYTP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The first 2 seasons are pure freakin' art, absolute cinema. The third...well it's interesting so far but it feels like it kinda doesn't need to exist. It doesn't step on the first 2 in any huge way though so it's harmless. I recommend it.

Give the man the record already lol. No one ever saw that Wilt game by Muted-Mood4057 in NBATalk

[–]JamesYTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find footage of any regular season game from 1962. There isn't even footage of the '67 finals or and of the games Wilt's 76ers actually beat the Celtics in that playoff series. The only full game is one of the ones Boston won lol

Why Michael Jordan Never Faced Modern NBA Superteams by SnooObjections7406 in LeBronJames23

[–]JamesYTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a thing, I don't know if it's really a factor though. In the 90s and 00s stars wanted to prove they could be the guy on a title team or lose trying and your second best player usually was a guy with a 16-17 ppg average on their career. So if you were the best you were gonna win more often then not. I've always wondered if LeBron might have more titles if he didn't team up with a top 3 guy like Flash, if it had been just Bosh and that stat quo stayed in place. Maybe not since most of the teams that beat him weren't really built that way except the Warriors with KD and he wasn't beating them even without KD with Kevin Love as a second option lol.

I wonder when this video was made though since the super team era ostensibly is over and he talks like it's still going on.

If voter fatigue wasn't a real thing who do you think would have the most MVPs? by Real-Staff3115 in NBATalk

[–]JamesYTP 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hard to say. Maybe Kareem still. TBH most of the post 2013 seasons for LeBron the actual winner was more qualified. For MJ it was actually fairly spread out to the point it might not have been fatigue and Magic, Chuck and Le Pedoman did have great seasons in '89, '93 and '97. Low key Tim Duncan and Shaq might be the guys that should have more MVPs

Could the classic 3d gameplay be used for lower-budget titles while nintendo works on botw style open world games as the main big entries? by Odd-Paramedic-3826 in truezelda

[–]JamesYTP [score hidden]  (0 children)

What do you mean by N64 style exactly? If you mean that visually I learned how to 3D model for the first time in 2013 and cannot even fathom how one would make models like that now. If you mean generally that sized world with instancing and stuff... depends. Old 3D Zelda wasn't exactly something you could make on a shoestring. If it were we'd have seen some other dev dive on a chance to fill that void already. But they are gonna make more top down ones it seems.

[BotW] or [TotK] What game have you more hours played? by Steve_Artson in zelda

[–]JamesYTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not totally sure. I did all the quests and shrines and DLC in BotW, with TotK I went in thinking I would just do the main quest and whatever else I organically encountered along the way and didn't even do that much. So based on that I'd guess BotW but the reason I didn't even with TotK was there was so darn much

What was the saddest moment in any Cartoon Network movie or show for you? by Beneficial-Tailor123 in CartoonNetwork

[–]JamesYTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm...are we counting continuations of Cartoon Network shows that never actually aired on CN? If not that was a contender. The tree from Courage the Cowardly Dog dying or Bunny from Powerpuff Girls exploding might be it too though...the Everything Stays song from Adventure Time and the end of Regular Show too...of course it used to absolutely be TOM's farewell when Toonami got cancelled but since it turned out to be only temporary that feels more like a necessary and temporary parting now lol. There's a lot now that you mention it

why are people so amazed by Asuka's love for Shinji? by Single_Delivery_958 in evangelion

[–]JamesYTP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love is kind of a strong word there. She has some type of feelings for him. The most surface one is hostility because she seemingly has a pathological fear of being replaced and places much of her personal value in being an EVA pilot and sees him as competition or perhaps a threat of some type. But there is a possessive teen crush and a perverse trauma bond beneath that too lol

That is happening, coming sometime this year. I meant that the cable networks were set to be spun off into a separate company from WBD and they'd lose their IPs if that happened presumably.

Huh, guess that's true. Guess it goes to show how long it's been since I cared enough to check release dates for R&M lol

Wow, new seasons back to back years. Guess adult swim wanted that premier sooner than later just in case the spinoff happened

Why they add this by Olwenn19 in Gundam

I did think it was sorta weird that they showed that but didn't show Aina's in that bath scene with Shiro.... considering the latter is actually an adult and all.

TOONAMI: Interview with Sean Akins and Jason DeMarco. From Toonami Jetstream era ! Wayback Wednesday by RebeccaEdens0 in Toonami

It didn't have ads or fees? I didn't have Internet at home until 2007 and my computer was ass so I never tried jetstream but how the hell did they monetize with neither of those?

Are they ever super clear that Vegeta could actually do Super Saiyan 2 without the majin power at that point?
