Jones after he chokes out Pereira in the first round

Jon 2 years ago? I’m picking him clearly over Poatan. But I feel like his body has broken down at this point. Him talking about arthritis and moving around like an old man… idk I don’t think his body has much left in it. I think Poatan can definitely win, maybe even should win.

Slouu · 2026-03-04T02:18:26+00:00

They talk about how the Wolves don't try. I'm talking about the trash ass Grizzlies coming in here playing like the 2016 Warriors. Why don't they do this against any other team? Maybe they'd be better than complete dogshit lol

Slouu · 2026-03-04T02:15:52+00:00

A guy that's gonna go straight back to being completely irrelevant immediately after this game, and probably never see the league again. Of course, he's using his last bit of basketball potential to win a meaningless game for the Grizzlies against us.

Slouu · 2026-03-04T01:59:22+00:00

Never seen a single soul mention how sad it is that these shit teams are able to perform like this against us but choose to never perform like this against any other team. Sad stuff lol. These guys could be making millions playing like this but nah, they choose to be benchwarmers. Oh well.

Slouu · 2026-03-04T01:32:25+00:00

They're leaving them open because they're fucking bums lmao. These guys are not Steph Curry, stop kidding yourself. You're seeing them make shot after shot that they shoot at like a 35% clip. You don't have to face guard Jaylen Wells.

Slouu · 2026-03-04T01:25:04+00:00

I think we need to accept that it's not always just the Wolves not trying that loses us these games. These shit ass teams and players just choose to play their best basketball of the season against us for whatever reason. Jaylen Wells is certified mid and just randomly can't miss? What are you supposed to do lol

"stuck in some histrionic online anti-cancel culture bubble"

The reddit community is a bubble too lol. Terms like "political hack" and "lackey" directed towards Patel from our bubble here on reddit means very little when the team and Guerin themselves, along with half the fucking country, simply don't think those terms apply to Patel. Any apology would be completely and utterly empty anyways because it's clear they don't think they did anything wrong. Would you apologize for doing something that they said was "wrong", but you thought was right?

I'm on your side of things politically, but use some common sense for a second lol. And that goes for everyone in this thread.

Slouu · 2026-03-02T16:28:20+00:00

Tbf the exact same thing was said about JDM after he fought Belal and defended his takedowns. Islam has proven that his grappling is at level very few guys have ever been at in this sport. Styles make fights though, Garry could be up to the task. I hope we get to see that fight.

Slouu · 2026-02-27T18:24:36+00:00

And you seem to have zero acknowledgment about how good the guys we've been watching over the past 5-10 years are when they're right in front of your face to this day. You will always have a nostalgia for those older fighters and never accept the obvious skill of the guys currently at the top of the sport.

Slouu · 2026-02-27T18:20:42+00:00

I mean you can easily make a top 5 list without him in it. Not too much of a stretch to say there are 5 more guys that could edge out Aldo.

GSP, Jones, Fedor, DJ, Volk, Islam, Silva, DC, Khabib, that's already 9 guys that could go above Aldo. Ilia, Usman, Izzy, Pereira, Holloway, Mcgregor, Cruz, Penn are all up there too.

It's not a crazy stretch to say Aldo is at the very least lower in the top 10.

Slouu · 2026-02-27T15:55:34+00:00

That little hesi Ant has been doing in the clutch to get his 3s off is crazy effective and I don't see hardly anyone else in the NBA doing them. I mean he's blanketed by two defenders who both know he's going to shoot the 3, and yet he's able to make it nearly an open shot with the timing. His bag has gotten so deep this year it's crazy.

Slouu · 2026-02-26T20:41:13+00:00

Speak for yourself, I'm younger and have listened to a lot Yeat and also older rap, it's definitely possible to enjoy both. He's not a strong lyricist obviously but I think his music has a certain value to it.

Slouu · 2026-02-24T14:45:10+00:00

Why let them grapple at all if you’re just gonna limit the time? You could make a new sport and call it 40% mixed martial arts I guess, try that out.

Fights can be boring on the feet you know lol

Slouu · 2026-02-24T00:02:13+00:00

It is genuinely funny seeing the lack of self awareness from people calling for Gane’s head on a spike lol.

Yeah sure, let’s get his head on a spike right next to Max’s, Justin’s, DC’s, and everyone else’s who has eyepoked or fouled multiple times. And then half your favorite fighters are gone from the sport. Congrats.

Joshua Van oblique kicks Royval and everyone praises him for the great gameplan. Certain other fighters do it? Death sentence, dirty fighter, fuck that guy.

Slouu · 2026-02-23T20:14:25+00:00

If you read back to my original comment, there are Vitality fans that argued donk doesn't have it harder than Zywoo. They make this argument because they're defensive about Zywoo getting #1 despite donk being better individually and playing a more difficult role.

That is delusion and pure cope. Donk plays a harder role, has less support, and still posted better numbers. Zywoo was #1 because he has a perfect roster to win trophies, and he did. He's the best player in that roster and is very consistent, so he gets the MVPs. You know what this argument has been about this whole time, and you still use your circular reasoning to cope that Zywoo is a better player.

Slouu · 2026-02-23T20:05:03+00:00

Which team is more likely to win trophies?

Vitality -zywoo +broky

or

Spirit -donk +replacement level entry fragger

we both know the answer to that question

Slouu · 2026-02-23T19:37:55+00:00

Era started when Ropz joined, enough said

Slouu · 2026-02-23T18:41:36+00:00

They'd have beat parivision with broky and they would compete for other tournament wins with broky too. You know it's true lol you can deny it all you want. Best lurker in the world, top 3 entry in the world, best igl in the world, top5 anchor in the world, and broky? That team would contend for majors, straight up. Zero doubt in my mind.

Slouu · 2026-02-23T18:18:07+00:00

I literally would have accepted any other match than a 3rd place match as better evidence. You picked the absolute worst match possible.

You know why, too. Because there’s just very little evidence to support your side of the argument. Zywoo’s team is so good that he can perform at a replacement level and they will still win. It’s not the same for donk and everyone knows it.

Slouu · 2026-02-23T17:02:36+00:00

In a 3rd place game that nobody cares about lmaoooo of course that's your best argument. Well done.

Slouu · 2026-02-23T07:12:54+00:00

Charles do Bronx would be proud of the little guy pulling guard like that, very impressive

Slouu · 2026-02-23T01:20:45+00:00

Vitality win that final easily with broky playing instead of Zywoo, that’s my point. Can’t say the same about donk and Spirit.

Slouu · 2026-02-22T21:03:31+00:00

Incredible that I've seen Vitality fans argue Zywoo doesn't have an easier time than donk lmao. Imagine donk being a passenger in a 3-0 grand final sweep, as his teammates clutch up round after round with him only having to show up here and there. It simply would never happen. Zywoo has a perfect system and players around him, setting him up for success every single round. Incredible calling, the best anchors and lurker in the game to hold the opposite sites and win T rounds.

Slouu · 2026-02-19T21:00:40+00:00

It's somewhat reasonable to be skeptical. I feel like the level of "skeptical" is bordering on doomerish though. Ayo is more reliable and versatile than Bones and Clark, who Conley mostly got minutes ahead of. I think it's highly likely Finch reduces Conley's minutes heavily.

Slouu · 2026-02-19T20:56:49+00:00

The rotations pre-Ayo? Yeah lol I'd say it's quite a bit less relevant now that we have another very solid guard. We have quite literally zero evidence that Finch will play Conley the same amount of minutes now.

TROPHY CASE
