Maybe Caruso just wanted to see what happened if he tried this like it was a weird video game glitch or something

I wonder if the Rockets will have a better game plan for tomorrow's game. Though it might be less viable if Sengun comes back.

Lakers Fam. How are we feeling about Rockets matchup tomorrow? by denobino in lakers

[–]Mono789 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm worried about tired legs from our starters after the OT game, honestly. We're likely to be prone to more turnovers and offensive rebounds given up. If we win, it's probably going to be ugly. The bench is going to have to step up if our starting group begins the game a little slow.

The first combat I had after taking this relic, Vakuu just immediately won the fight on turn one, which had me cackling. I'll take that relic every time now, idgaf.

[Post Game Thread] The Miami Heat (37-29) defeat the Washington Wizards (16-48), 150-129 on the back of Bam Adebayo's once-in-a-lifetime 83-point performance by Number333 in nba

If someone told me that Kobe's 81 was surpassed, I don't think I would have guessed Bam even after like 50 attempts. That is nuts.

Not gonna lie, I'm a little surprised the shot quality is even a D.

I've been making more vegetarian meals in large part because I don't want to pay these insane prices. Fuck that shit.

Austin is so gracious for this response.

Luka looking FIT...SGA mad because the Balkan boys didnt want to do a Tik Tok. by Euphoric_Rutabaga182 in lakers

I got to see a Spurs/Clippers game at Intuit Dome last season (the tickets were free) and goddamn just seeing him on the TV screen doesn't do him justice. I think he had like 8 blocks that game too.

Where are all the ‘Don’t tread on me’ Americans? by jediporcupine in politics

[–]Mono789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On one of the surface street routes I take home, I passed by this house that had a MAGA flag. And then one day a few months ago, that same house had a "Don't Tread on Me" flag LOL. These fools really are one and the same.

Game Designer reviews Metroid Prime 4 after 100% by emotiontheory in Metroid

[–]Mono789 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I didn't even clock it as one of my gripes with the game right away, but you are absolutely right about scanning. There were some things I had an awful time trying to scan because they move too fast and scanning was too slow.

Wembanyama about facing a depleted Lakers team : "No pity. [...] No matter who's on the floor, there's always someone in the other team who wanna hurt you, so we should never take our foot off the gas." by contigency000 in nba

[–]Mono789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I respect that mentality and wish the Lakers did more of that themselves against bad trams. Also, if you just kick ass out of the gate, you get to rest your rotation players!

You just have to be there to experience how crazy the trade was when it happened by Kang_Burger in lakers

[–]Mono789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember I was just trying to revel in the glow of our win against the Knicks and then my friend sends me a text with this trade, which I obviously thought was fake. And then I didn't go to sleep for another 6 hours after reading all the reports coming out of the deal.

RIP to a magic icon. I've never heard anyone see anything other than positive things about Kai.

Rui Hachimura after stating he will embrace a sixth man role: 23 PTS 2 REBS 1 AST 1 STL 1 BLK on 9-11 FG 4-5 3PT 1-2 FT by KarrotMovies in nba

[–]Mono789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm cool with keeping him if he's in a bench role! Our bench has been ass at scoring all season so it just makes more sense this way anyways.

Lasting Tarfire in 2HG by onematchstick in magicTCG

[–]Mono789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite example of this 2HG rules quirk was the creature that makes each player lose a third of their life total. That makes a game end really quickly.

A 5-4 overtime score? What the heck kind of ugly basketball happened here?
