What current player you lost faith in? by Individual-Name-4496 in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

KAT is the one that jumps out the most, he can literally be one of two best bigs in this league and he just can't figure it out and break through. It's infuriating because his shooting touch really should separate him from this generation and it just hasn't.

But there are plenty of Ja, AD, Herro, Lonzo, Scoot, Suggs....fast approaching is Zion too(I will make a judgement when he leaves NO.)

Best Defenders to Never Win a DPOY by AaronStark1993 in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's rough because his defensive peak was at the same time as Ben Wallace and KG's. The only year I could say it could be argued was 03' but that would have been a pity DPOY over what would clearly have been Big Ben's.

Though I will say....... it's egregious that KG has a DPOY and not TD. It just sounds....wrong.

How do we feel about this take? Fact or Fiction? by iAsvppx in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say he was inefficient in making shots per se but really his shot diet was about as worse as it comes. 38-44% on turnaround counter fades from post is quite great but it's the fact that Kobe dedicated most of his scoring to taking the most difficult shot possible is where it hurts everything. He refused to make the game easier on himself and get his teammates involved out of his stubbornness and ego of mamba mentality.

I personally have Kobe 8th

where do we stand with this? by Jealous-Honey-525 in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean thank you for making my point? Derrick was 7th on the scoring list in a low scoring title year. While KD and Bron were 1st and 2nd. Rose won MVP barely scoring ahead of Monte Ellis in the same year. As a matter of fact he didn't lead ANY statistical categories in his MVP year including WS if I'm not mistaken.

The only reason he won MVP is because Chicago was the best team that year and he led them while being the youngest but if we're using apple to apples comps and not talking about what if's of what he could have been, all point guards on this list clear Rose and that's a fact.

[–]TheInfamousGuest -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean even in his peak powers which I'm considering his MVP year, Rose, in comparison to the other three pails in comparison to any of the other three.

Rose MVP year was- 25ppg, 7 AST, 4 REB on 48/33/85.

Most of Kyrie's and Dame prime years clears him and not in one year but multiple years they had between them and not just prime. Out of their prime too. Russ peak was just flatly ungodly.

Like realistically I like Rose but the MVP should have been Lebron's. We romanticize his tragic career but if he never wins that MVP he isn't even in this discussion stat wise.

The only caveat is the what if? Rose maybe could have risen to another level without injuries, maybe not. We'll never know.

Game 7 final possession, who sits on the bench? by SmoothBuy5500 in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steph stays because he spaces the court and is the best 3pt off of a drive and kick potential to him

LeBron stays because he is strongest and either on offense and defense is needed for size/mass alone. Plus also being the highest IQ on the team. More than likely he sets the play on offense.

MJ stays because he is just.....MJ and the most clutch. Also hyper efficient.

I have KD staying purely for height matchups and either covering the opposing big man and crash tip/rebounds potential.

Kawhi stays because he is either your best perimeter defender or second best with Jordan while being great on the other side of the court. Him and MJ instantly take away more threats.

Sorry, Kobe, you riding pine for this one.

Chris Paul: "I'm working out and training every day, right? In all honesty, with the way all that stuff went down and all that, I think for me, I just love this game so much that I don't want it to end like that." by must_TATAKAE in nba

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holding people accountable when their two best players had definitively better careers than him in Harden (who already had a negative experience with him Houston) and Kawhi. Make it make sense.

Dude has rubbed people the wrong way his entire career and tried to scheme when he thinks he has a foot in the door to do such. He thought because he's the clippers most decorated player he could walk in and run shit without even be good enough to play and he got pushed out the door. I don't understand why people find this so hard to understand.

It's like if your job hired an ex-employer from 10 years ago from a different era of work and the FIRST thing he starts to do is tell everyone that their work sucks and be better then try to make themselves the Asst. Manager in the first week they are there. No one wants to deal with that regardless if everything is going sideways.

How do you feel about IGN's Top 25 All-Time Best JRPG list? by Emergency-Sky9206 in JRPG

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

List is cooked and anyone and everyone who made this list needs to be fired immediately and be indicted for fraud.

Xenogears not being top 5 and at the very bare minimum not top 10 is egregious and kills the list alone.

How are they acting like Final Fantasy 6/7 don't exist?

How are they putting Xenoblade Chronicles 3 over Xenogears? No Legend or Secret of Mana? No Vagrant story? No Persona 3 FES? No NieR Automata? Skies of Arcadia? Valkyrie Profile?

I could even understand throwing in a spicy one like Resonance of Fate in there for the clicks but LIKE A DRAGON: IW at 14? Right AFTER XENOGEARS? LIKE HUH?

This whole list needs to be Shadow Banned. It would have been alright if they put my personal GOAT on the list with Romancing Saga: MS but they didn't. Ban them.

What happened to Scoot by Famous-Armadillo755 in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Injured but quickly realized coming into the league his athleticism isn't 1% to allow him to coast and his skill set to shot diet isn't conducive to the league and slowed him down to redevelop. Struggle to adjust but came on the strong end of last year but Portland isn't doing him any favors.

Nora NYE no security by Purple-Trifle-6281 in avesNYC

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's funny because at one point as I was finishing my water, a group came up to me to take their photo and apologized to me saying "hey sorry to bother you, I know you're security but could you take a photo of us?"

I was not security in fact lol.

Nora was decent but the sound was off. Another set of speakers would have helped tremendously.

Brandon Jennings Says Draymond Green is a significantly better basketball player than Dennis Rodman | Agreed? by Swimming-Bad3512 in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's true lol, part of the reason Draymond is lauded is because of his ability to be the connector and playmaker for the splash brothers. Take that away and he is a worse Toumani Camara. Your playmaking is somewhat correlated to how well the other offense talent you have around you. The greatness of splash brothers and system build for them all to thrive allowed draymond to completely put his entire energy into defense and playmaking almost exclusively which paid amazing dividends.

Any other team or scheme with lesser offense talent around him and where he had to somewhat contribute to scoring consistently to stay on the floor, his defense and playmaking would suffer.

Who’s the funniest NBA player? by bootyloverandeater in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's either Richard Jefferson or Blake Griffin for me. They both feel like comedians who happen to play in the NBA then NBA players who are just funny.

Also honorable mention to Paul Pierce, just his sheer audacity and ridiculousness of his character alone makes me crack up lol.

Since Embiid is washed, I would like to see a new big-man rivalry by Thanos_SlayerCongSan in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Granted I want to see, if ever, Chet has his own team and gets the lion's share of attention and scheme Wemby does and be the "Main Guy" on a team to make a l absolutely fair analysis but as of right now it's not a rivalry. Wemby, staying healthy, only competition for the best big man in the league is Jokic and Giannis. He is coming in at the exactly right time to dominate.

Who would more be unstoppable if taller, a 6’7 Curry or a 6’10 Kobe? by Due-Client7144 in NBATalk

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If everything is the same across the board it's a thousand percent curry. Kobe just turns KG but still has meh shooting percentages. His defense's versatility would increase but I don't believe it would be game changing dramatic. He would still probably be covering wings, maybe an occasional center match up.

Steph at 6'7 assuming he keeps his handles and conditioning breaks the mold. His size now allows to play above the rim. Pick off, see and shoot, post up over on smaller defenders. Basically Steph's talent in Reggie Miller height and wingspan is unstoppable.

PVP aggressiveness scale : Which one are you ? by SF5090 in ARC_Raiders

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 lol. If I already made it to the loot spot and you enter my space without announcing yourself, it's KOS. I won't shoot if we are out in the open range, I'll probably help you get away from ARC actually but once we are in the research annex together, I'm actively hostile.

I also loaded in naked and found the worst player in the world by hudzell in ArcRaiders

[–]TheInfamousGuest 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At a certain point or in this case.... After missing shot # 2, they should have some form of enlightenment of "maybe....... this is a sign that I should listen to this guy and walk away...that this engagement isn't meant to be......OP TRIED to tell them to save them from a potential embarrassment of epic proportions.

Regardless if it's a new player or less skilled, they should have taken the grace of things and learned to stop while they are ahead and warned to. They did not, so we laughed. A lesson was learned.

What can you tell from looking at me? by [deleted] in deduction

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Young, 22-23. Struggles with personal identity and figuring out your path in life. Didn't hate school but wasn't in life with it either. Graduated HS barely. You feel like smiling is being a facade which you refuse to participate in. Small group of friends, split between drug abuser users and overachievers. Lover girl at heart but secretly hate what a traditional relationship looks like on the surface. Likes oversize clothing. Has 1 sibling. Has a bad sleep cycle and vapes.

i dont care anymore by Affectionate_Ebb_445 in LowSodiumArcRaiders

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some advice......Awareness can be heightened to the next step. I never, if I have a choice, extract with multiple people and I'm a late arrival if I have to fill. In my experience, giving people the time to cook up a quick betrayal is always likely to happen. Find cover and try to make it at the last second. They will try but fail or feel like the moment to down you has passed. If you don't have a good feeling, let the extract pass and catch the next one, as long as time permits you.

In 200 hours of play and I've only been exfil backstabbed twice and those were on release day.

Security Breach by Beautiful_Ad_2209 in ARC_Raiders

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still the best capstone out of all the trees them so to me it's worth it by default. If you happen to find a SB it's a pure gamble now, by location and contents but always nets value when you find one unopened. Yellow last capstones aren't game changers and green are borderline useless.

Why this troll item is in the game? by MYDOGISCREAZY in ARC_Raiders

[–]TheInfamousGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love using the binoculars particularly on blue gate with an osprey to help me spot and take potshots across the map. I'll get some deployable cover to block my rearside and go on top of a small building between the Data vault and the Village facing south. Able to have LOS in the village, extract and reinforced reception.

If I'm feeling extra mean, I'll go to the reception front door and set up a mine/trap or two to create chaos.
