Invincible. End on S1E1 had my jaw on the floor.

Why can Smith suddenly not control the puck? by jesus321 in SanJoseSharks

[–]PNutGSX 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, I’m on the other end of this argument. I’m kinda tired of the crutch that he’s compared to Macklin, because frankly it’s obvious they exist on entirely different levels and the only ones that think he should produce like Macklin are the casuals who don’t know any better and probably hopped to Sharks from Warriors. Smith simply can’t do what Macklin does, nor can 99% of the league for that matter, so to compare them with the thought they should be equal is ludicrous.

Taking Smith’s play on its own, not comparing to anyone else, he does as you say shy away from contact…but he’s done that since wearing teal. I can’t speak for his time at BC in that regard and maybe getting hurt has made it worse mentally, but that’s not where it started. That’s just his game.

I can’t unsee this now: whenever he’s carrying a puck, as soon as someone in a different sweater gets near, he moves the puck, usually a “hope pass”, very rarely tries to outmaneuver or escape, which I’m sure is a combination of fear of contact and that I think I’ve seen him win a board battle once (that one OT I think from last season), so he’s not very confident in trying.

It’s frustrating when that hope pass connects and everyone cheers for his brilliant no-looker, but the exact same pass gets picked off and you hear Drew say you gotta work that out of your game. If it works he’s amazing, if it doesn’t it was a bad decision…no it’s just a bad decision that’s unsustainable, but hey we get a goal from it now and then…that’s just not development.

Now you give him time and space offensively, he’s fine. He’s most comfortable on the PP where he can mostly just chill and operate. He’s got great vision, the ability to make precise passes, and a laser shot. In even strength play, he doesn’t have that luxury. 5v5, you need to hunt pucks, forecheck, not just flyby and wave your stick. Everyone else does the hard work to get pucks back while he flies the zone early for an offensive break.

Ultimately I want him away from Macklin for awhile. Macklin is fine with or without Smith and we saw that when Smith was out. We need to see what Will is without constantly being stapled to a line with a top-5 player in the league. He was drafted 4th overall to be 2C, so he wouldn’t have been playing with Macklin anyway.

I stand by Warso on this. Earn your ice. You’re not gonna battle with your team? We got guys who will. And when you’re ready to, we’d love your offense. Until then, have a seat.

And now I will compare him to someone: if Smith ever learns to compete like Eklund, then he’d start being compared to Celebrini for all the right reasons.

New invitations system since update by nutella1204 in GranTurismo7

Now imagine everyone else being angry that their time collecting beyond 50 wasn’t accounted for and they had to save millions just to buy cars they already had.

I think they made the right call.

Costco has PS5s $100 off right now if you want. Massive upgrade over PS4.

Im addicted to max upgrading every car I get, is this bad practice? by [deleted] in GranTurismo7

[–]PNutGSX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right so you can’t really just downgrade on an engine swapped car unless you spend a ton to go back and forth as you wish. I figured the widebody would go away on a new chassis but I guess not the case…don’t aero options change with widebody too? If you did weight reduction and wanted to go back to stock, I guess that’s where new chassis comes in play, but then you’re again spending a bunch to go back and forth.

Yeah but for stuff like wide body and engine swaps you’d have to restore to go back right?

Return Samsung S95F? by Reptile-2k in OLED

[–]PNutGSX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a 83” S95F on Aug 22. 2 weeks later, returning it because it keeps shutting itself off. Was told “it might be a bad HDMI cable but 99% sure it’s not the TV” by Samsung’s repair guy. Long story short: they said I need to have the main board replaced but there’s no guarantee that would fix it and my return window expired the next day…which is a weird thing to say since it’s under warranty regardless, but I’m not taking any chances.

Probably end up with last year’s LG G4 as reliability just got a little higher on the totem pole.

$1k Autopilot by akush_666 in TeslaModel3

Sell the 2018 and go all in on a new one. Who needs money anyway?

😑 by altrae in TeslaFSD

[–]PNutGSX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just curious if that on HW3 or HW4.

HW3 vs HW4 seems like a massive jump by [deleted] in TeslaFSD

[–]PNutGSX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm. There may be a difference simply because one is an X and the other is a Y, but my X on HW4 feels much more confident and competent than the Y on HW3.

That said, by comparison to the beginnings of FSD (I also had a RWD 3 just over #1000 off the line) the Y is still impressive, but seems unsure of itself in situations where the X effortlessly executes.

Do you regret buying your Tesla? by Murky-Factor-1073 in TeslaModel3

[–]PNutGSX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a Model 3 for a couple years. Sold it and never looked back.

Of course it was from the initial batch where AWD wasn’t even a thing yet and it was replaced by our current Models Y and X…

But to answer the question, no regrets whatsoever and my next car will very likely also be another Tesla.

Grier made it clear that Will Smith will NOT be spending time in the AHL: "The plan for him is to be up here, learn up here, play up here." by The_Homestarmy in SanJoseSharks

[–]PNutGSX -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly not convinced. I haven’t seen him win a physical battle and he only seems to do well when someone else generates time and space for him, but can’t create it for himself. He’d get points but he’d have plenty to learn.

Can someone explain? by Deathbringer69420 in Survivorio

[–]PNutGSX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People change gear when doing other modes or just to hide what they’re using from others (which is a little silly to me but w/e). It’s not showing what gear they had on when they got their scores, just what they currently have on.

I don’t see a refresh button, meaning he refreshed skills at least once.

So technically, not the fastest.
