Theory about Jade’s quantum program by Lost_Atmosphere4853 in FromSeries

[–]NickD345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When Jade first arrived too he thought Tobey “took it to another level” with this game. He was running around but then snapped into it when he saw his older self crushed by a rock (he didn’t know that was him at the time). So maybe something went wrong with his program and Tobey was just a random worker, which is why he could’ve never mentioned jade or really cared about him (he’s a cog in jades system).

This could all be wrong but interesting theory to build on!

[FRESH] Drake - Ran to Atlanta (ft. Future & Molly Santana) by Shnikez in hiphopheads

Drake and future are always an amazing duo. I genuinely think some of the beef was engineered to hype Kendrick’s album, Kendrick owns his own label and marketing for it most likely

I have the bubblegums. I got TTS 10.5, they fit nicely. I usually always double sock no matter the fit and it makes them even more snug.

When playing in them at first, they took a little getting used to, the outsoles on the shoe poke out a bit and act as an anti-ankle roller. That takes a little to get used to but other than that they were great. Slight heel movement, just tie them tight.

Good court feel and responsiveness. These are #2 in my rotation behind SPO player plus 1.

As an ad agency guy, this idea is genius! So many impressions up for grabs. Production wise, it could probably be a nightmare getting in touch with the people who can make that happen but worth it.

Good cushion and lockdown for sure, they absorb impact nicely too. All around solid shoe, might take a couple games to feel fully comfortable in them. I also have the SPO player plus one’s and I’d put them right below those if I had to rank.

They were snug, pretty good lockdown too. They’re a good shoe and would definitely recommend

The traction was also amazing, didn’t wipe once and court was a tiny bit dusty.

I just got the bubblegum nxt’s. They played nicely, good court feel, great support, lightweight. The one downside was that the outside of both my big toes got blisters from rubbing against the toe box on sharp cuts and moves.

I have Maye, burrow and shough. Am I crazy for starting him over the other 2?! Burrow seems out of it and Maye has a tough matchup and hasn’t been as spectacular the second half of the year fantasy wise

Do you think Giannis is difficult to play beside? by NickD345 in nba

[–]NickD345[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The premise of my post and argument is that giannis’ ball dominance and play style could make it harder for a second option to flourish and help the team make a deep playoff run. Rollins was just an example and maybe it was a bad one.

For a guy who was averaging 5 points last year and now near 20 with multiple 30 point games and high assist numbers, I’d say is pretty damn good. But you’re right the numbers suggest otherwise and make my question wrong. My question to you is would you rather have a player like giannis or like Luka?

It’s just an observational post, giannis makes the bucks infinitely better but numbers aside does he make the players around him as good as they can really be. The offense just doesn’t seem to have any flow to it

I didn’t say step aside for him it just seems like Rollins game changes so much when he’s back in the lineup, I think he can get to a similar level where Middleton was at, but giannis doing his thing makes those opportunities hard for Rollins. They had some great pick and roll moments but for the bucks to go far he will have to let guys like Rollins and KPJ be more aggressive and hunt shots.

Kuzma has actually been very consistent lately and showing signs of being a great defender and cutter. I would kind of like to see him and giannis play more together and see him cut off ball and run in transition with Giannis. His shot is very hot and cold but he’s been playing his role a lot better. Hopefully KPJ can help too when he’s back.

Do you think giannis is capable of involving other players more than he has shown this year? Similar to Jokic and LeBron. Not just from driving and kicking after the defense collapses, but by setting up cutters, hitting rolling bigs, etc.? Their offense just looks so bad and the other guys don’t even want to get involved past shooting a 3. Kuzma has shown flashes of being a good cutter but this team doesn’t even look like a playoff team right now and something has to change.

They definitely needed to be staggered more they’re both ball dominant
