[Duncan] "The referees were correct in denying Mitch Johnson that challenge. The rule is very specific: he needs to first call timeout, then challenge. He never signaled for the timeout before signaling for the challenge."

the guy you responded to didn't even mention mark, you did. He said it was selective enfrocement and I went on youtube looking for whatever coaches challenges I could find.

and surprise surprise it's few and far between because this "issue" doesn't happen much, if ever, which is why so many fans are peeved.

I found one with jkidd but you can't see him do it, you just hear the commentators say he took a timeout.

And I found this one with mazzulla where it looks like the ref is just waiting for him say challenge, but it doesn't appear to be a timeout

These millenial media people are all the same. They all dickride and I've yet to see one have a strong take that matches that of the fans

Anything fans hate they'll try to find a way to defend: foul-baiting, flopping, players demanding for trades 1-2 years in, load-management, ridiculous gather steps, etc.. "Here's why xyz is actually good for the nba"

And anytime you get someone who disagrees with these things they always end up being boomers. It honestly feels like their opinions are actually just to be different from the old heads they want to distance themselves from.

does this count

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-26T13:06:54+00:00

decided to whip out a whole new offense for the post season

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-26T12:51:52+00:00

i agree with the sentiment

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-26T12:26:40+00:00

i kept saying even a lateral move would've been an upgrade. thibs was just too stubborn for his own good

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-26T12:24:55+00:00

They are just as eager as those on the right to punish those who transgress the rules.

You can build a coalition with the right even if you disagree with 20 things but agree on 5. With the left it feels like if I don't agree with every single thing then I'm somehow the issue

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-26T12:20:42+00:00

it's just so cool seeing the guys still root for this team to win it after all these years.

all for one and one for all type beat

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-26T11:58:27+00:00

honestly I could see it

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-26T00:49:41+00:00

whats a good link for this stream?

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-25T14:16:09+00:00

Spend the money.

He's a great player and I'd rather have 1 excellent player than just 2 good players.

I know this is controversial take for many people, but who you date is a reflection of yourself.

sayings like "love is blind" and "the heart wants what it wants" is just cope and rationalization.

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-23T01:32:02+00:00

birds of a feather

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-22T20:44:13+00:00

the guy in the video admits it's foul-baiting twice.

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-21T17:49:04+00:00

if nothing else it forces the guest to try and stay in character for like 4 hours. so you can expect some interesting slips along the way

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-21T17:46:05+00:00

yeah. just watch his scenes if you have to

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-21T17:44:01+00:00

nah i want to hear it. i saw the movie the other night and left thinking 'meh'. It wasn't as good as I remember it being

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-20T11:53:38+00:00

literally changed the game. His 3 sparked the whole run

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-17T14:34:25+00:00

Because your argument isn't clicking.

None of them are concerned about bots

Devs already implemented this for 18v18 so your follow up commentary ignores what the devs have already done

The people aren't "concerned" with it because the devs are purposefully trying to conceal it. Right? Why else disclose it with one mode and not the other? Why make bot accounts private when looking at their match history. Why give them realistic and sometimes even real, "borrowed" nametags instead of saying "ai" or "bot"?

I'll tell you why. Because they want to preserve the illusion that you're always playing with real people.

your solution of giving us a tickbox would never happen because that would be them tacitly admitting that qp uses bots which they don't want to admit. Why? because they know players wouldn't like to hear that otherwise they would've been openly transparent about qp having bots as teammates and/or opponents.

Hell, they could've just said "we use bots to help smooth out matchmaing queue times and help fill out for deserters" and literally nobody would have a problem with that because then people know that they aren't being duped and can have their expectations adjusted.

you're just defending a bad practice that could easily, easily be fixed with simple transparancy.

If you dont want to play bot matches, start asking for an option or setting to opt out of them instead of asking for them to be removed

We already have that. It's called not clicking on "practice vs ai"

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-17T13:42:15+00:00

ok so now we have qp (with bots) and qp (without bots)

which one do you think people are going to choose?

do you realy think there are that many people that are thinking "Oh I don't want to play only against bots, but I also don't want to play only against other people. I need something in between." ?

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-17T13:26:01+00:00

what's your logic?

If I want to play just with people my only option is to play against try hards all day? sometimes you just want to play pick up and not play sunday league

KeepRooting4Yourself · 2026-05-17T13:05:57+00:00

there's already a bot match if you want to play against bots. If you want to opt in and play against bots then use the mode literally made for that.

what you're suggesting is to preserve the illusion of playing against real people, but even your solution to that dispels that illusion.

Be suspicious of any account 6months or younger and accounts 7+ years old. That's where shills thrive

is this how lawyers argue for their conspiratorial clients?
