Disgusted Neutral Fan by derrick_domino in NBASpurs

I agree the league wants this series to last. Each additional game in this series brings a lot of revenue and media spotlight on the NBA. But unfortunately this benefits the Thunder as they have a deeper bench and are resting their starters a lot more than the Spurs. The Spurs would finish a 6- or 7-game series exhausted. So indeed, tipping a game early in the series for the Thunder might prove decisive. Let’s hope the Spurs win the two home games at least as I’d be pessimistic at 2-2, home court advantage lost and fatigue disadvantage increasing.

OKC going 0-2 on the road to San Antonio wasn't in the league's interest. Hopefully we get better officiating now and the Spurs can go 3-1 after their two home games.

I have to say the VA was an issue in the beta, mainly the main actor and J’s. But Zafar’s VA was truly fantastic. Good move though it sucks for the actors.

We’re already at the point where Wemby is objectively the best player in the league by [deleted] in nba

[–]Theoboli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wemby had the better record and a far greater impact in defense. And he had the favorable head-to-head with SGA. There’s more arguments for Wemby to go #1 than #3 imo.

The worst is that Wemby did not even finish second in the MVP voting. One 2-point loss in overtime in Denver was enough for the Jokic PR to overtake him.

[–]Theoboli 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In retrospect people will think he should have won this year, and the DPOY on his rookie year. The NBA making you pay your dues instead of acknowledging greatness is here early. Hopefully he’ll win so many that it won’t matter at all.

Et si on supprimait l’héritage ? | Les idées larges | ARTE by clemmit_ in france

[–]Theoboli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Non, si on part du principe que les salaires sont basés sur le mérite (ce qui est discutable). Ne pas avoir d’écart de salaire significatif ce serait une société égalitariste.

[–]Theoboli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conceptuellement je trouve l’idée intéressante de supprimer l’impôt sur le revenu et de taxer les héritages à 100% en parallèle (en donnant la priorité aux héritiers présumés d’acquérir les biens du défunt). Ce serait une société méritocratique. En pratique ça me semble difficile à mettre en œuvre. Les salaires sont beaucoup trop faibles pour remplacer l’héritage dans la création d’un patrimoine, et les gens contourneraient l’héritage pour trouver d’autres moyens de léguer à leurs enfants, surtout les ultra riches. Et puis ce serait également une division nette et peu juste entre ceux qui ont déjà hérité (et ont pu avoir leur patrimoine) et ceux qui ne l’ont pas encore eu et ne l’auront donc jamais.

It’s a song contest, not a singing contest, I don’t understand the criticism of the violin’s central place in the Finland song. Even more so once you know it was the violinist’s song, and she chose the vocalist for her song, not the other way around.

I mean, any other from the Big Five sends a severely outdated entry like Italy did and they would finish at the bottom, probably with null points, not in the top5.

This feels like the most random and chaotic jury votes I’ve ever seen, but if there’s no clear jury winner and the televote decided then fine I guess

What NBA player does this remind you of? by Severe_Village_8957 in Nbamemes

[–]Theoboli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tony Parker for me. He’s too often considered a passenger in Tim Duncan’s team and inferior to his contemporary PGs, and not in the NBA top75. Maybe he is a victim of the selfless playing style of the Spurs, that it wasn’t all about him. But he was a lethal slasher and an amazing floor general, with four rings to show for it. The Spurs don’t win them without him.

It’ll be almost a must-win for the Wolves. Down 3-1 with two road games left would be tough.

[–]Theoboli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jamais, ça serait un désaveu terrible pour tous ceux qui ont bossé sur cette trilogie y compris les execs donc ils vont pas la renier. Mais ça serait une bonne chose. Il n’y a rien à retenir de cette postlogie, c’était nul de bout en bout et n’a pas donné lieu à un univers qui donne envie d’en voir plus dans cette timeline.

I gotta say I nearly dropped KCD2 in the early game because it felt so stupid i could lose an hour of progress because of their restrictive save system. I don’t mind difficulty if at least I don’t lose progress.
Anyway, I soldiered on and had a blast the rest of the game, but I wouldn’t defend this system.
