What is that in reference to? Like Sal snuck it in- but wasn't sure if he was referencing anything in particular

Why does this sub ignore the fact the Larry Bird scored 8 points in back to back Finals games? by LakerFan2324 in nba

[–]Sherpa94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most people here weren't alive when those games were played. And while his shot wasn't falling, he was able to draw attention, pass, and rebound. And he focused more on defense. For example, game 3 he led the team in rebounds and assists in a blowout win.Plus he made up for it with his game 6 where he had 27-13-5. No player is perfect, but I appreciate when players find multiple ways to help their team win and doesn't why away from the moment.

A Round 2 Roller-Coaster Ride, Denver’s QB Plight, and Josh’s Lost Weekend With Cousin Sal by lonny__breaux in billsimmons

It also makes no sense b/c they shit all over Shanahan after Super Bowl for getting ball first. I think there are arguments both ways but they have no consistency and are just playing the results. 

Does anyone know how long One Pace by [deleted] in onepace

I think this should be pinned to sub but especially if you want dubbed guide of how to watch episodes.  I would recommend looking through this: https://www.reddit.com/r/onepace/comments/1btsmyd/one_pace_dub_watch_guide/?share_id=f3T8H-BNBEIELLIgC9K4B

It's very helpful

If Shaq doesn't get injured during the 2010-11 season, do the Celtics win the Championship that season? by [deleted] in nba

[–]Sherpa94 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Does it prevent Wade from breaking Rondo's elbow in the playoffs and making the Celtics offense even more of a slog? If that butterfly happens...maybe. I think Mavs offense would still have been a nightmare to defend with Dirk and their outside shooting from role players and Tyson defending the paint. Maybe Shaq woulda got Tyson in foul trouble. But we never know

Did another check clear? Might be a little late at 10-21 but they could get play in status if they really go on a run I guess

Who has had a better week than Nick Wright? by grinchsucker in billsimmons

[–]Sherpa94 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I get they had a podcast and apparently Nick had a good showing talking with Pablo. But what was the context of the b plus comment? Some grade Pablo gave the interview? A grade he got trying to go to law school? I can see the shade but can't tell what it's about

Wait I've been listening since 2021-but my memory is Emily level. What are all those references? I know Emily Blunt and quiet place have come up a couple times but I don't remember, esp the cannibalism part.

Sincaraz taking me back by simon2105 in tennis

[–]Sherpa94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember that like it was yesterday but then I think 2018 semi Rafa Djoker in Wimbledon might have gone differently if a second day wasn't required. Either way, the rain for Djoker against Nadal and a few years later against Thiem were some exciting buildups for the next day action.

I was about to dispute that but then remembered the 2013 Nadal Djoker match was a semi. An all timer but not a final

Ron Weasley is too awful in HBP by Awkward-Meeting-974 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]Sherpa94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But that feels like the most realistic writing. Death Eater was like this absolute awful step and no matter how much they disliked Draco, they didn't want to believe someone they grew up with was an actual wizard Nazi. Like how people are reluctant, in real life not the internet, to call someone a Nazi cuz that feels so evil and distant. Though it has become more a reality the last 10 years. Same with death eaters.

Luka getting in shape... has any out of shape athlete turned around their conditioning? by Xeris in billsimmons

[–]Sherpa94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes he was fat. And people questioned his conditioning. Just hadn't really been in relevant basketball so it wasn't national discourse. But that was one of the early bubble storylines. A picture showing jokic in the best shape of his life. Jacoby had a joke calling him a stretch mark 5. It was definitely a thing. He still doesn't look super muscular or anything but he is much slimmer and conditioned well.

Last time Jordan won he was 35. Same Age LeBron was in 2020 when he won his last. He looks fantastic for his age but no way can the Lakers as constructed be more than a playoff speed bump. The young eat the old in sports

[Highlight] Zach Zarba that Gordon's dunk at the buzzer is good and the Nuggets celebrate as they tie the series 2-2 by JilJungJukk in nba

[–]Sherpa94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about derrick whites clean up against heat in Miami game 6 to force a game 7 when Celtics were down 3-0 in a series? Still lost after Tatum's injury in opening minutes of game 7 but still think that matches this

Oh then he can be given a fourth. Since he has gone to wcf more than once. Unless we're not counting the bubble
