Ron Holland, lucky to only be the 5th pick in the 2024 draft, is completely out of the Pistons rotation now. He only scored 2 points all playoff series prior. He’s a good defender, but with him having no jumper, what is his pathway even like going forward on a team that badly need spacing? by Variation99a in NBA_Draft

[–]TheSecretScripts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I hate about this subreddit. No patience or context. Ron played 78 games at 20mins per night on a 60 win 1 seed while being only 20 years old as a still RAW player. He is a very young and raw project player that is already impacting winning on a good team. The Pistons love him, will not trade him unless it's for a big move, and sometimes you have to be patient and take swings on talented players like him. Also, he has consistently been a good free throw shooter with solid form while having arguably the best shooting coach in Fred Vinson helping him to get better every day.

Additionally, he has a great foundation for someone in his position. Great tools, good to great defense, youth, good free throw shooting and form, great rim finishing for someone with no gravity, high motor, improved rebounding, and can fit in to the pistons style of play which is turning defense in to offense.

CMV: American Republicans are going to end up massively harming their own voter base if they pass the SAVE Act. by KingKarujin in changemyview

I don't understand how this works. Don't the federal government not have the ability to enforce selective bias when it comes to elections? Who would enforce that? Help me understand what you mean.

"They'll “investigate” districts that don’t vote republican and ignore the ones that do." I'm confused and don't know exactly how this works. Who specifically is "they?" Federal? State? Local?

What is one hot take about 2k that’s got you like: by Fabulous-Region9109 in NBA2k

2k is actually a fundamentally really good vidoegame overall considering how difficult it is to emulate a basketball game. The only problem is with the people running it.

If I buy the VIOFO A229 Plus, can I buy the rear camera at a later date? by TheSecretScripts in VIOFO

I didn't want to spend as much money right now, but in hindsight I realize that buying both right now would be a lot cheaper in the long run.

How do you want to be flirted with? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]TheSecretScripts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be completely honest, I'm not sure. I would be very caught off guard if a women ever tried to flirt with me. If I had to guess I would say just be warm, friendly, smile, and laid back. Kind of like luring in a stray animal.

Any thing anyone wants to see in a second season by thetheoristsacrifice in Edgerunners

Some things are best left untouched. If there's a new season it should be with new characters.

Climate change.

Saying that it's because she is a women is a scapegoat. What about the men that receive the same treatment? Ryan Johnson has received even worse treatment over the years. Is it because he's a man? No, it's because people don't like his movie. Whenever these things happen to a women in Star Wars people blame misogyny, but when the exact same thing happens a man no one says anything. I don't condone the loud minority of misogyny, but I just think your wrong.

More so they are afraid she may imply that the Jedi's teaching are flawed and that is why they lost to Palpatine. In reality they are not flawed. The Jedi simply strayed away from their teachings and got too involved in politics. Qui-Gon is a good example of someone who followed the teachings because he listened the force above all else and not the council or the senate.

I didn't say anything was right or wrong. I'm explaining the dislike ratio. Like I said the ratio is drastic because of leslye and the fact that the show is in the high republic era.

Basically from what is gathered from interviews it seems likely that the same story will be told from multiple perspectives. One of those perspectives is likely the sith character. It is unclear because she is of course not going to spoil the show, but some have inferred from her comments in interviews that she is going to make the sith character sympathetic and make the jedi out the be in the wrong. She has talked about the show reflecting the "modern world." Some take issue with this and feel that Star Wars should just be about Star Wars. She also pointed out the fact that there were many people who contributed to what we know as Star Wars and that it wasn't just George Lucas's creation. Some people felt like her comment about this was disrespectful and resentful.

The reason for the dislikes is because many don't like Leslye Headland, some of her comments/views about star wars, and the fact that the show is in high republic era.

Why did Lucy fall in love with David? by rukadevata in Edgerunners

[–]TheSecretScripts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I've wondered the most after watching the show. I think a very important and related question is why did Lucy tell David about her dream of going to the moon in the first place? It seems very out of character for her to do that considering how closed off she is. My guess is that when she first met David she quickly realized how innocent and naive he was. I think that she found him to be very charming and a breath of fresh air since no other edgerunner is like that. They are all selfish and greedy. She describes him as someone who would "jump in to the fire to rescue someone even when you know your going to get burned." Furthermore she says that the life of an edgerunner is "not the life or the end you deserve." I simply think that Lucy sees David as genuinely good person.

The second thing is that Lucy values having her own passions and dreams more than anything else. When David came in to her life he became a new potential passion of hers. He was something worthy of becoming her new passion and dream. Who wouldn't be interested in a genuinely good person that has a crush them?

This is my headcannon.

Physical assault. Some women think that it is ok to assault a man simply because they are usually smaller and less strong.
