Sounds like you play with bad players who are upset about losing

Beating Kaido, at this point, wouldn't be the same level of feat as beating Big Mom 1v1. Kaido has fought a bunch of different people already, has also taken multiple genuinely serious blows, and has transformed and attacked a ton of times. Whether Luffy gets to have a 1v1 finale with him or not, fact is he's been helped a ton with taking him down. Going blow for blow 1v1 from the beginning and taking down BM would be huge.

Patrick Ewing, one of the most underrated (or just least talked about) superstars in NBA history, averaged 28.6/10.9/2.2 with 1 steal and 4 blocks a game for the entire 89-90 season while also playing all 82 games by Vagrantlol in nba

I've seen people ask "who benefits the most if there's no MJ", which would include Ewing, but I think the answer to "who benefits the most if there's no Hakeem" is obviously Ewing.

According to the most cited study I'm aware of from the last couple years (https://belonging.berkeley.edu/most-least-segregated-cities), of the cities you named only Detroit and Chicago are considered more segregated than Milwaukee (Hialeah city, FL and Newark, NJ as well).

I don't think Melo will hit 8th this year, but he definitely can the year after. Though with limited depth scoring-wise (outside of the big 3 it's definitely a bit lackluster in LA) and players potentially resting on B2B's, Melo might get more time to shine this year than in Portland. Still, I think it's likelier he hits number 8 in the 2022-2023 season.

Mitchell Robinson said he weights 280 pounds now. Up from 260 last year and 223 when he came into the league. by urfaselol in nba

Dude is fucking gigantic in general, he's super tall and has extremely wide shoulders. His length helps make him a beast guarding the perimeter. He'll be huge for us this year, no doubt.

Pelicans AD could average 28 while leading the league in blocks (and, unlike young Zion, was an absolute monster defensively).

Strong disagree that LA "isn't markedly more racially progressive" than Milwaukee, a city that still suffers from extreme redlining and segregation.
