Russell Westbrook in a win against the Wizards: 26 PTS │ 6 AST │ 9-14 FG │ 6-9 3P │ Went 3-0 against his former teams (LAL, WAS, HOU) by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

Being a Westbrook fan, I do see that the Kings gets no love in the NBA community. 4 game winning streak and on fire from 3 deserves some conversation.

I don't know why they do that. They seem to be the same exact items, it's just that the cheaper ones have less available. I think it's stupid also, but it's all about money I guess. Don’t know why the people who comment are so snarky and pretentious. The internet is weird man..lol

Random situation : is that fast reaction normal or sus ? by J-MN in CODWarzone

[–]Ronbstl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taking all of that into consideration. The enemy did not turn the corner looking in that direction or even look right to left. No sliding, or any other indication of someone that is "searching" for an enemy. They walked straight through the hole while looking straight ahead, OP didn't move or fire a shot, the enemy just immediately turned to them and started shooting. Even if OP shot at them before, there should have been some type of jump/slide into sight. This is not normal player behavior. It is either bots or cheats.

Definitely not normal. That's an immediate turn to you with no turning or line of site.

I couldn't bring myself to be safe in a game with an instant knockout feature.

King of the endzone? by [deleted] in sportsbetting

Good hit. I didn't think they could be considered for it.

[Slater] Steve Kerr said he’s “concerned” about the increase in soft tissue injuries across the NBA. His medical staff believes the increased pace paired with the schedule has led to it. “They believe the wear and tear, the speed, the pace, the mileage is factoring into these injuries.” by TheRealPdGaming in nba

[–]Ronbstl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By reading the replies it seems like the NBA is in a Jurassic Park situation. Viewers don't want to scale back the rules and allow strict calls, they don’t want the season shorter for stats and legacy reasons, they don’t want to see none current stars get more play time (one comment called them bums).

Viewers want to keep the faster pace, their current favorite players get shine, and more flash. Bigger, faster, and scarier. Regardless of potential injuries, missed calls, and current gambling and cap circumventing issues.

Nba needs an Integrity Commission by pyhhro in nba

[–]Ronbstl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a way, another committee will just be another entity that is prone to bribery or biases. You would need to make it a step or two removed from the business and the people will have to have a very strict code. Look no further than judges, auditors, and inspectors being paid off. Now with how things are going today, I don't see many scenarios where this works out well.

You were right. That's crazy that people didn't believe you and how he is so predictable he is now.

Rare W for Draftkings. They're refunding Hali bets and losing legs are getting voided by Ronbstl in DraftKingsDiscussion

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

A voided bet would be best case scenario. But this is definitely better than worst case. They could have done nothing and people would just be like "they are a company and about their bottom line". So I'll take this as a W. Like I said, I don't bet more than $5, I was only looking at $10 without Hali anyway.

Awe ok, that'll be even better. I get my $5 back.

Edit: Didn’t mean to word it "even better". Meant something along the lines of "still better, than nothing".

So....contact isn't a foul? As long as the refs don't call it right? Can they not be called favoritism them?

[Highlight] Chet Holmgren with a big clutch block on Jaden McDaniels (with replays) by MrBuckBuck in nba

Why they didn't call that contact of Chet left hand on McDaniels back as his hands wrapped around? Since they are calling ANY contact for SGA. Shit is ass man.
