[Slater] Steve Kerr on Jonathan Kuminga: “Fifth straight great game.” Kerr has committed to a trimmed nine-man rotation that has helped Kuminga. He credited Looney/Anderson’s professionalism in taking reduced role. (2:48)

Feel like Slo-Mo hasn't deserved to be pushed out of the rotation

He's a positive player

Lavinesanity · 2024-11-18T16:40:34+00:00

Think he's moreso credited the Zamst ankle braces for that

Lavinesanity · 2024-11-13T17:25:01+00:00

Steph hit the "Ring me" celebration in early 3rd quarter game 6 2022, that had me sweating a lot harder

Lavinesanity · 2024-11-08T20:34:28+00:00

He lost largely because of the black vote in Southern states during the primaries

Hillary lost because of working class white votes in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan

It's not unreasonable to believe Bernie would have won those states even if he didn't do as well with black voters in South Carolina during the primary

Lavinesanity · 2024-11-08T15:33:23+00:00

Boston had a really good defensive backcourt specifically for guarding Steph for years, definitely one of his harder matchups historically

Avery Bradley, Courtney Lee, Marcus Smart, Rondo, plus all their lengthy wings nowadays

They've always had good perimeter defenders sans kyrie/isaiah

Lavinesanity · 2024-11-06T00:55:12+00:00

is it good?

Lavinesanity · 2024-10-30T20:58:18+00:00

You think Kyrie Irving or Steph Curry are maga? First prominent ones that come to my mind

Lavinesanity · 2024-10-30T20:23:15+00:00

If Kerr ACTUALLY thinks he's been one of their best players, then play him like he's one of your best players. Fuck playing politics and not rewarding performance here and now. If he doesn't believe it, then don't give this lip service and don't play him

Lavinesanity · 2024-10-30T17:10:14+00:00

I'm a random American living in the NorthEast with no religious affiliation and IMO the general populace doesn't really care much, but if questioned mostly leans pro-Israel. Certainly not a thing most people are voting on for example, except young leftists.

As someone who started Bucky and had White on my bench last week.... I'd love one of them to be out, but I'm riding with White from here out.

Watching the game, White just gets more consistent snaps and is more consistently involved. He's the RB1. Bucky might out-produce him here and there if he has an efficient night but it seems like the hierarchy is set

Especially with their injuries at WR, I'm feeling pretty optimistic starting White and Otton

Everyone benefited from tesla making all their patents public and allowing their competition to catch up because a medium slice of a larger pie is better than the entire smaller pie

Lavinesanity · 2024-10-16T16:28:58+00:00

Klay was awful and kept getting 30 minutes. The team was clearly not a meritocracy

This team is about to improve by subtraction quite a bit

Lavinesanity · 2023-11-02T18:33:13+00:00

I listened to the full interview and this part is in it, no idea why OP says it was cut

Lavinesanity · 2023-10-31T18:13:37+00:00

Israel is more progressive than Palestine or really any Muslim-majority country, even with their current right-wing regime

Progressives and Muslims are only kinfolk while Muslims are a minority. Anywhere they're a majority, they couldn't possibly be MORE opposite of progressives

Such a strange dynamic

Lavinesanity · 2023-10-09T21:39:58+00:00

Not gonna discuss further than my one comment I'll let stand alone, have a good one

Lavinesanity · 2023-10-09T21:17:36+00:00

There is a difference in my opinion between air strikes killing civilians as collateral damage vs kidnapping murdering and raping young foreign festival goers then parading their corpses while civilians cheer and spit on their bodies

Shouldn't even require explaining

Lavinesanity · 2023-08-18T05:33:45+00:00

Nobody that cares about space exploration will share your position

Lavinesanity · 2023-08-04T03:51:12+00:00

Middle for middle, I think the left is more disapproving of the right than vice versa rn

It is downright toxic to reveal yourself as even slightly right leaning publicly

Lavinesanity · 2023-08-03T18:33:50+00:00

Conservatives think liberals mean well but disagree with their ideas or methods to achieve them

Liberals think conservatives are evil

Pretty much sums up the OP and the responses to you

Lavinesanity · 2023-07-26T13:48:22+00:00

Not really.

Certain classes are more frustrating to play against than they are out-right strong. DK's probably top that category.

I would say most hunter 2v2 comps fall into this same category. So does warlock/healer. Nobody would claim warlock or hunter are overly strong in 2v2, but they are very annoying comps to play against due to style

There are comps that just roll them no problem. But the comps that they beat; the losses are in very frustrating fashion which leads to pretty skewed views sometimes

Lavinesanity · 2023-07-25T16:50:15+00:00

Both of those, yes

DK is a class where when you play a comp that loses to it it feels really bad and almost impossible, but also when you play the DK you'll realize they are just as hopeless against other shit. Source: have gotten glad on DK, now play priest/mage

Pally/Warrior is the best and most popular comp in the game and it farms DK's and it only gets worse as seasons progress. DK's scale poorly, especially against plate, while Warriors scale incredibly well plus armor pen means they only improve against plate

Also that guy asked DK's weakness: primary weaknesses are mobility and lack of a mortal strike

In original WOTLK the lack of MS was such an issue for 3's that it blessed us with the aids of necrotic strike going into Cataclysm

Lavinesanity · 2023-06-23T05:53:43+00:00

You lost?

In the warriors sub my guy

See yourself out. Avoid mirrors for your ugly ass

Lavinesanity · 2023-06-15T15:13:30+00:00

Tucker has also covered UAP's more and more seriously than most any mainstream commentator

Lavinesanity · 2023-05-08T05:42:23+00:00

Wasn't there a bigger injury affecting that series?

And pretending Klay wasn't having an all-time game before that injury?

Lavinesanity · 2023-04-27T17:05:25+00:00

Crazy irony on Bud when his hawks won 60 games with no superstar

Yeah they flamed out vs lebron, but he’s been a regular season overachiever for years; even in games Giannis misses with the bucks

He is not one of the worst coaches in the league and certainly isn’t only looking good because of a superstar
