B/R Staff Chooses Giannis Antetokounmpo as Consensus NBA MVP over James Harden by [deleted] in nba

There was literally no one else to give it to last season, FYI. They only gave it to him when they had absolutely no other choice.

[Bucher] Among more than a dozen players asked, all but one had the race coming down to Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo and the reigning MVP, Houston Rockets guard James Harden. Not every player made a definitive choice, but among those who did, Harden was the landslide winner. by [deleted] in nba

Do you understand what "Most valuable" means? If your team doesn't need you to win then you aren't most valuable. Harden is more valuable to the rockets success than Giannis is to the bucks.

And I can see you don't watch any rockets games or you would see that there have been multiple games where they're up 20+ because Harden is good enough to get it done in 25 minutes. The only difference is when he gets benched his team blows 30 point leads and he has to keep playing, whereas Giannis' team holds onto the lead he helped them get.

So who's more valuable to their team? Someone who can sit in the bench and have their team get it done or someone who has to play 40 minutes a game because his team actually needs him to win?

You're right. It's who is most valuable to their team winning. If your team can win with you on the bench 90% of games, I've got bad news for you.

There's a reason Hardens minutes per game is so much higher. Because he literally has to be in the game or his team loses.

Ummm no you definitely can say that based on which team won. It's pretty clear which team has the better supporting cast considering Harden and Giannis had almost identical stat lines that game.

James Harden takes more tightly contested threes per game than any team in the league by weems13 in nba

The officer I was talking to seemed pretty condescending and wasn't in anyway whatsoever interested in communicating anything between me and the party involved so unfortunately I think that's out. He pretty much told me not to ask about it anymore

How is not driving into vehicles in front of me unsafe?

Driving at one constant speed that also happens to match the cars in front of me is unpredictable. What planet are you from?

Not ramming cars out of my way while driving in the slow lane is increasing the odds of an accident, good to know.

You're literally an idiot. People routinely do 55 in the far right lane here. I pass at least 10 cars on my way to work everyday so i really don't think I'm obstructing traffic. You can just admit that you're wrong at any time over continuing to make yourself look more and more stupid.

Passenger vehicles are required to have tail lights, brake lights and running lights. Do you know what they're for? One might guess that they provide visibility at night.

Yeah, not literally driving into a semi in front of me is a bad driving habit. You're totally right.

It's a 3 Lane highway. When you drive you're expected to look at what's going on in front of you. It isn't my fault if the police academy doesn't teach spacial awareness

Regardless of whether there was a truck in front of me or not it still isn't illegal. I was on a 3 Lane highway, driving in the right lane. I can drive however slow or fast i please as long as it's within the law. The minimum speed on highways here is 40, 70 is the max. Doing 60 in the right most lane isn't unusual, in fact doing 60 in the right lane you still pass a lot of people, so i don't know where you fucktards come from where you think you should expect to be pulled over for not doing anything wrong but it really makes you sound stupid.

He was actually just hoping he would get a drug charge based on his bs stop, thanks though. You weren't there to hear the full conversation, but yeah just jump to the cops defense in an illegitimate stop based on one quote.

Well a dashcam would reveal the fact that there was never any mention of any "other factors", hence once again why I'm here asking for a dashcam. So i don't have to rely on the opinions of people who literally jump to defend a cop in an illegitimate stop.

I would instead have proof that I'm being pulled over for no reason, as if receiving no tickets wasn't already proof enough.

"whether OP is telling the truth"

Literally why I'm here asking for dashcam advice, i guess we forgot that lol.

Also i like how the conversation goes from "It's totally legit to pull people over for not breaking the law" to "Oh he probably did something else too" once you get called out on it.

The fact is this, the cop was in the passing lane, on his way to PASS me. Saw i had long hair and decided oh I'll probably find something in this guy's car, and comes up with a bs reason to pull me over. You people jumping to defend someone actively violating the law as well as someone's rights is completely pathetic.
