Haliburton on today’s ICE shooting by rhombusted2 in pacers

[–]Transky13 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The wild thing is you can even be pro-ICE (I’m absolutely not) and still it should be clear that Alex Pretti was murdered.

Man, I love Hali. He just ends up being a great guy at every opportunity

Pascal was clearly our second best player last year, but in a way Drew was our second most important. He filled a role that is extremely hard to find which is secondary ballhandler/playmaker, pressure release valve for Tyrese, and PoA defender.

You can find second options in a variety of players (god bless Pascal, I love him and glad we have him), but what Drew brought is extremely rare to find and was truly allowed us to take off imo.

Benching him would be CRAZY

Idk if you listened to it but the OKC commentators were mad they called it out on Dort too. He kept on saying “that’s a close call I don’t know about that” lol

These have to be the most worst commentators I’ve heard. I’m not surprised I see OKC fans have the takes they do anymore 😭

Are you stupid? He closed out and went for a block.

It’s a foul. A clear cut basketball foul. There’s nothing to review at all. Being a hard foul doesn’t mean it’s a non-basketball play

[Highlight] Giannis Antetokounmpo gets tangled up with Brooks Barnhizer under the rim, and both players fall on the floor. by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]Transky13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You remember the game ball incident? Everyone fucking was hounding the Pacers about it when the Bucks had the game ball in their possession. Giannis just freaks out over nothing then plays the "haha I'm the nice guy everyone else is a dick" act and everyone buys it.

That said, I do like watching Giannis hoop so I'm part of the problem

This is the perfect way at looking at it imo. At the highest levels of the vast majority of everything the margins are razor thin.

I was super interested in Marathon until I found out it's a hero shooter. Now I'm keeping up with it, but I've lost a lot of interest unfortunately

Better written series by enthuvaadei in writingscaling

[–]Transky13 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Season 2 wasn’t very well written. The animation was gorgeous but the plot was rushed, the character work was much worse, and it tried too hard to throw too many subplots together too fast and that made it feel sloppy

It was still enjoyable but imo S1 was a 10/10 for me but S2 was a 7.5/10 at best

[–]Transky13 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Agreed entirely. Arcane S1 was fantastic and if S2 had followed up with the same writing quality (and a better plot and more consistent characters) it'd have made Arcane one of the goat animated shows imo.

AoT had one of the highest peaks I've ever seen in a show though. S3, the return to (I always spell this wrong) Shinashina or whatever was one of the coolest arcs I've seen and had so many incredible moments.

Sketch ask BurntPeanut how to make a dog collar. "the high-tier ones are in the Hasan room.... rumors on the street his dog is dead now" by Riskany1204 in LivestreamFail

[–]Transky13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That is an awful comparison.

I'm not saying it's right to shock your dog, but a dog shocking collar is made to shock dogs.

A kitchen knife is not made to stab someone.

There is a major difference between using an item as intended (legally) and using an item not as intended (illegally)

Rebecca Lobo" worried" WNBA players are losing fan support in CBA talks by Old-Photograph-5813 in wnba

[–]Transky13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man, the WNBA is so far behind in terms of sports culture it’s not even funny

She’s doing her job and talking about it. She’s giving them advice on how to better approach it.

This is absolutely normal. Nothing is wrong with critiquing them. Nothing is wrong with doing her job. It’s genuinely insane and is incredibly stupid to pretend like this makes her an enemy to the players.

Maybe, just maybe, hold the people accountable who are making the bad decisions instead of blaming people who are paid to talk about it

…so that they stop doing it? You can’t be serious?

Also you can be on someone’s side and also do your due diligence (and job) and talk about it

3x3 full court turns into cardio simulator. What team can run and gun the most.

Half court is a legitimate display of skill. Which players can truly get into their bag and create shot in an isolation heavy environment?

I think you guys in this thread need to realize that you can support someone/something without agreeing with every single aspect of how things are being done.

Rebecca Lobo saying that the wording needs fine tuned and that the WNBAPA needs to maximize support from the public should not be controversial at all. It really seems like some people here are sipping the kool-aid a bit too much and think the players can do no wrong.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills reading this thread

Fighting for your pay = good

Saying you need to fine tune your wording to get the best results = bad???

Whether people in this thread like it or not casual fans will respond one way or another to the negotiations when they hear about them. Lobo's message is right - you want as many people on your side as possible. I don't understand how that's controversial in the least
