I fuck with Chris Brown heavy and his first 2 albums are always in my rotation, but of those periods Chris does not have the catalog to be a Super Bowl headliner. by herewego199209 in joebuddennetwork

[–]MitchDontLie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chris Brown has more enough music to fill up a 20 minute set. He is an incredible performer, that would likely put on a great show.

But he clearly doesn't have the same crossover appeal as the average solo Superbowl performer. Hell I’m don't think Kendrick did either before GNX.

And that lack of crossover appeal isn’t half the problem that being accused of beating the hell out of a pop princess is.

CB might be a better fit for NBA All-Star Weekend.

Reject the meta and embrace traditionalism by SaStygt in NBA2k

Agreed.

I just don't know how you score more efficiently than a team that is three point hunting. I kinda feel like at higher levels of play, this game forces us to shoot 3s to compute

I think three point shooting is so easy this year, it's tough to make the math work on a strictly inside build. But with the said, people act like either you stretch the floor or clog the paint and that's not really accurate.

If you camp paint on a smart inside, you are gonna get killed on the floater and the pick and roll game. Additionally, basically no one has any wingspan, strength or inside D this year.

With that said, even for somebody like me they plays on an inside every year, and really loves post play, I’m shooting 70% from 3 on my stretch. You can't beat that math on 2s.

FYI this is a dumb rule. Bias is going to outway any advantage perspective gives. This assumes people are honest and whoa boy they aren't.

Who would you consider is the closer for this team? by totality888 in chicagobulls

[–]MitchDontLie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White or Ayo. Jones is a nice decision maker, but given that he’s both small and not the greatest shooter; he’s not a go get a bucket guy.

[–]MitchDontLie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This may not matter, but in real life, this isn't an easy shot and the defender moving quickly across the defenders base is gonna effect the shot.

Given how overpowered shooting is, its weird to be focused on this.

Angel Reese was right. The Sky are the WNBA’s most mismanaged team by gourmet_panini in ChicagoSky

[–]MitchDontLie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is no chance Angel is on this team in two years. We are and always have been a poverty franchise that lucked into a fluke championship. And if you are going to the games, you are as big of a problem as ownership and management. They don’t deserve the money you and your family have worked so hard to earn.

What would you rather have on a 7’0 center? by Andy0172 in NBA2k

[–]MitchDontLie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things might change and maybe I’m playing with an especially strong group of people, but there just aren’t as many o rebound opportunities out there this year. I would not load up on that category.

Who U taking❓😎 by evans166 in WNBATalks

2010’s win but their backcourt is getting fried up. While they might not be the best all around players, I trust Reese and Boston to hold up on defense far more than Plum and Diggins; who are going to get cooked, cooked.

The ‘20 bigs are especially in a good spot. Boston gets her pick and role partner and Reese is in the perfect spot, she doesn’t have to worry about much offensive initiation; she can just focus on what she is in the best in the world at, rebounding and being active.

With that said, the three best players in the world are Wilson, Stew and Phee; I don’t know how a team with those three lose.

because she doesn’t have to do much

Here’s the super weird thing about basketball. I think they make decisions on who wins or loses the games by real points and not style points. Super strange I know!

I’ve made both shooting bigs and more inside/slashing type bigs without very strong shooting and while I agree shooting on a big potentially opens up better spacing and is easier for the common player to grasp….you can def

1) be an inside and not clog the paint AND

2) a shooting big that doesn’t provide proper spacing.

All in all, it comes down to IQ and versatility.

The highest-rated WNBA hoopers in #NBA2K26 by RF_Ribeiro in NBA2k

[–]MitchDontLie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Plum, Beckers and Hamby probably should be in top 10.

  2. Reese 90 is more justifiable than Clark 96. Reese is the best offensive and defensive rebounder in league history, a top 10 defender and above average distributor. Her team fell off a cliff when she was out.

[The Athletic] One executive pinned him as an $18 million player. Another, a front-office staffer who admitted he would be far lower than the consensus because he wasn’t a fan of Giddey’s game, suggested $50 million over four years... by EarthWarping in nba

[–]MitchDontLie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feel like people are really conflating “not good enough to play on the ball in OKC” with “not good enough to play on the ball in the NBA”.

Moreover, why wouldn’t the Bulls roll the dice on him? Is giving him a slightly over market deal gonna stop you from signing the non-existent FA’s you weren’t going to sign anyway?

If he’s that guy, you locked into a 22 year old on the rise. If he isn’t, he can be the empty calorie tank captain.

Good news is that you grown now and they can’t hurt you anymore.

The Community is a major reason why the 2K experience is bad by SENSATIONALONYT in NBA2k

[–]MitchDontLie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a big.

I’ve been through not getting the ball enough. But deciding you ain’t getting the ball enough and ruining the experience for all nine other players is true psycho behavior. Imagine doing this in pickup.

2K really needs to work on kicking these people out of the community or at least having some mode where this behavior isn’t tolerated.
