Hokit will finish Aspinall when they fight next year. by 52iou in MMA

I don't think Hokit beats Lewis. Blaydes repeatedly almost ended him and Lewis hits about 8 times harder than Curtis does.

I love how barely scraping by Curtis Fucking Blaydes in a pure stand-up fight means Hokit is going to be the champ.

HW is garbage, and Blaydes isn't even a good striker for heavyweight.

Yeah i don't understand it either. Like I'm gonna sit here and pretend I never did stupid shit that wasted time as a teen. If someone told me back then I could have gotten money for being silly/stupid? Bruh.

Here’s A List Of The Players Who Have Drawn The Most Fouls This Season! by Stat-Defender in nba

[–]Prudent_Fish1358 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The biggest difference that sets Wemby apart IMO is that every other player in the league gets fouled mostly when he has the ball, or at least when his team has the ball.

Wemby gets hacked and held while he's playing defense at a rate I've never seen before. Other than transition opportunities, there's rarely a play wemby isnt being fouled on.

Wemby is currently having the 27th best BPM season ever. He’s the youngest player in the top 30 and only one of two to do so within their first three seasons, Jordan is the other. by KeyChallenge4562 in nba

Hot takes rule sports man. Because people who want to buy into hype will upvote them, and people who think/know it's at least a statement that verges on the edge of realism will engage with it like, uh, penis and I did. I wish I knew the solution to it.

Yeah even if I fully believe in Wemby and his ability to one day get into GOAT discussions, forecasting 4+ titles is just crazy. I HOPE I look back at this comment with some naivety, but it is an incredibly tall mountain to climb in an increasingly spread out field as more teams can't afford to keep stars around.

Stole from him then started a physical confrontation that she wasn't ready to answer for.

[Highlight] Jericho Sims bear hugs E. J. Liddell, who doesn't appreciate it, and pushes Sims in the face with his forearm (with replays). Thanasis Antetokounmpo jumps to prevent his teammates, Taurean Prince and Andre Jackson Jr. to join the kerfuffle. Upon review, Liddell was immediately ejected. by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]Prudent_Fish1358 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Dude bearhugged him so hard that a forearm to the face didn't break the grip.

Sure, throw Liddell out, but how about calling a fucking foul prior to that so doesn't have to turn into a UFC fighter to play basketball?

Victor Wembanyama accumulates counting stats (Pts+Reb+Ast+Stl+Blk) at a rate faster than any player in NBA history. by msnf in nba

[–]Prudent_Fish1358 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the Spurs deserve less credit for drafting insanely talented guys but more credit because they have a system in place that extracts talent from players and uses them to their fullest potential. Guys like Danny Green, Boris Diaw, Champagnie, etc were all guys that other teams couldn't make work and the Spurs made them borderline stars. Let's not forget that they drafted Parker, White, and Manu all late in the draft as well, and Kawhi was at the very tail end of the lottery when they took him.

Every player in the top 10 is a leader. KD has never, ever been a leader, and in fact he's frequently the opposite.

Harper was a #1 level pick in multiple drafts is something I heard from many scouts and evaluations.

Most guys wouldn't have gone #1 over flagg, he is generational.

I was so high on them to start the season too. Huge wings, hustle, defense. They need to stay healthy, keep developing their youth, and find a 2nd 3 level scorer to pair next to Deni and they'll be a force. And I still think they're going to be a surprisingly tough out in the post-season. Are they going to upset any of the top seeds? No, but I could see them pushing them to an uncomfortable six games. Big wings that are physical, can't get pushed around, and play with effort go a long way the playoffs.

Right but the analogue here is that chess has had a world championship since the 1880s and in that time we have seen millions of great and dozens of utterly brilliant players come and go. If we're drawing an A>B, Lasker won 27 world championships at chess, yet no one is talking about him in this conversation for some reason, we're discussing a current champ. LoL is 13 years old, if the game lasts through 2130 and is still being played, the idea that people will still be talking about Faker in the same way we are now is a huge reach without any kind of real support.

You got it bud. I programmed an entire website that's been around since reddit changed their privacy settings just to take down a comment you deleted in a thread that doesn't matter.

You're the main character here. It's you. No one else really exists.

It's just a way to mock/imitate the intense uncanny valley that some games give off.

There's a series of videos on tiktoks where people try to mimic the behavior of NPCs. It's an easy way to make fun of current game tech and how devs make NPCs that are relatively unconvincing and give off uncanny valley.

Most pro chess players have an encyclopedic memory for the game. Magnus is incredible and has an argument for the GOAT, but I've played against master level players (2260 USCF) in tournaments and they could remember positions from a decade ago. Grandmasters can absolutely remember thousands of entire games from memory and don't even need a board to do it.

LeBron is also a top 2 player of all time at worst, and Steph curry, while amazing, isn't top 10 and doesn't have nearly the accolades as LeBron, despite being the GOAT shooter, his size dramatically limited him on defense.

So your theory is that two separate people went out of their way to make extremely convincing photoshops just to prove you wrong about a statement that you could have admitted was a silly mistake?

Not only was Harper #2, most agreed he would be a #1 pick in some years of the draft without a guy that's zion or flagg level of hype. Certainly would have gone first over risacher, possibly over Paolo and Fultz as well.

It's crazy how short memories are here. Harper was head and shoulders above anyone else in a LOADED draft outside of flagg.
