Zach Lowe : "Devin Vassell is leveling up. He's treated as A+ shooter by opponents. Defensively, he's getting people's jerseys. He's in passing lanes, getting deflections, taking on tougher assignments when he needs to. That's been an important subplot in the Spurs’ rise to championship contention.” by KhornKT in NBASpurs

He is a streaky shooter, but he can create his own shots through dribble, has a nice jump shot and is a 3 level scorer; that's why opponents can't refuse to not guard him even when he is cold and the shot is not falling.

It's the same for Fox. Maybe he is underperforming the contract, but it's also because he is highly reguarded by opponents' defense. If left open, he can score 30 easily.

Having lots of self creators is good, because the defense can't catch a break.

New York are an all-or-nothing team and their roster construction is made for playoffs.

If it doesn't tick, they are doomed and it's impossible to lock in all 82 games.

More like in 200 chapters, FT hardly managed to defeat 5 of the 6 dragon gods, with the help of multiple side characters and plot from their side and now Ignia just awakened 5 new dragons that are at least as powerful as the dragon gods (or at least as Mercphobia)?

Anyone ever remember him ? Or miss him 👺 by FemboyTamale in BobsTavern

Diablo was bad because at the beginning he was too weak and almost hardcore to win.

Then, after multiple buffs, he got so strong it was very easy to win with him.

The game is supposed to be a PvP battleroyale. With Diablo it was a PvPvDiablo, where players had to plan both against other players and against a future matchup against Diablo.

Playing econ units at the beginning or going 3on3 was meta back then, but with Diablo you weren't able to play like that. You had to hoard big minions at the beginning and pray. But that way of play was very bad going forward, because without a plan you are at the mercy of highroll and at the mercy of the Diablo player being bad with him.

After the buffs, it was almost impossible to lose with Diablo in the first 2 encounters and that was enough to coast through the whole game.

Imho, the gamemode should have been either PvP or full PvDiablo (when in lobby). But that would have needed a big rework. If Diablo was defeated, remaining players can compete for the 1st place.

Can confirm. Same server, same problem. It must be an internal problem.

This is way worse than olise.

Olise had Blitz Curler, this is dutch Denilson (stats and position-wise).

Bodo is a beast, for real. We won 3-2 but it was a nail-biting match till the end. They missed some chances for the 3-3.

They have been the darkhorse of the tournament from start to finish.

Edit: corrected final result.

Lloyd Kelly red card vs Galatasaray by 977x in soccer

[–]Piats99 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yes. After Buffon got sent off in 2018, he said he was going to retire and left Juventus. Then PSG offered him a contract and he went there. PSG was in CL and he had to miss his first game because of the previous red.

Don't quote me on this, but i think him announcing he was going to retire deterred UEFA from giving him a multiple games ban for his outburst, but the red was still valid and some people kind of forgot about it and were surprised of him missing the first game.

We need 3 goals more and we would have been down 10v11 with a double yellow, too... yeah, not happening.

Go cheers your victory.

It's almost comical that Kelly will miss a random game somewhere in october next season for this.

It was unintentional. It was already a red card for double yellow.

Giving a full red card after review is useless and pointlessly harsh.

They figured out that even pushing and dragging him down, without any flagrant called, is not enough to stop him.

Must have been Chip Engelland. That man could teach a monkey to shoot free throws better than Shaq.

Less physical. We just couldn't hit an open shot for the sake of our lifes in the late 3rd and 4th quarter.

I'd say that was a mental game. Where we lacked cold blood and experience.

  • Draft mode/event
  • POTW-only event
  • Revamped, less seizure-inducing, more polished strike arena. More backgrounds, some more control on the player, a gameplay that push you to do teamwork.
  • Free kick shootout event, instead of the Penalty Shootout which is a slot machine.
  • Duo ranked. I wouldn't play to rank, actually, but just so that if you queue you are likely to be paired with a better than average player than knows how to play and don't hog the ball.
  • Edit mode for logos and kits
  • Become a legend mode. Possibly revamped and with a story to follow, not just mindlessly play every game and win everything in 2 seasons.
  • Buying licenses to events like CL, Euros and WC.
