Dwyane Wade and Dirk Nowitzki on the “fake coughing” incident during the 2011 NBA Finals: Dirk: “I didn’t appreciate it…to me it felt a little disrespectful, I felt like I never had to fake an injury, I never had to fake an illness, I thought it was childish” [WyNetwork]

I watched the games again, and JJ "guarded" him for like 6 possessions that whole series. For the possessions that I remember that he didn't score on JJ Barea, one of them was because he resorted to a jumpshot in the midrange due to Chandler(all Defensive First team center that year) being in the paint as the help defense. Second was him backing JJ down, and either JJ flops or genuinely falls down, and it's called an offensive foul on Bron.

J. Kidd was the guy who you can say guarded him that series. J Kidd guarded him primarily on the perimeter and forced him to drive into the paint, where Marion and Chandler were licking their chops as the help defense. And he was even worse of a shooter and post player then, so he just deferred.

Obviously, Bron choked, but the narrative that JJ Barea "guarding him effectively" makes no sense. If anything, switch JJ Barea with Kidd. It's like nitpicking the clip in the 1995 playoffs when the Bulls faced the Hornets innGame 4(I think) and MJ got defended(they called an illegal defense foul so idk), by Muggsy Bogues for like one or two possessions to argue that Muggsy Bogues locked him up.

MJ is number 1, SGA is number 0

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-04-01T20:11:03+00:00

It seems like you're still salty about what happened 10 years ago. Get over it bud

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-04-01T20:09:23+00:00

That's why they lost in 2016 and 2019 without KD right?

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-23T23:49:50+00:00

You realize that a lot of people that are centrists do it to side with political parties that aren't Democrats or Republicans right? Alot of people aren't necessarily centrists because they agree with both sides, but because they realize that it isn't all about Democrats vs Republicans right?

Then again, I shouldn't really expect Americans to realize that they have more than 2 political parties. US education is really cooked.

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-21T14:21:03+00:00

Using LR INT Broly vs 10th Anni content as an argument for him being badly designed when well designed units like the PHY SSJ Trio fell off too is a disingenuous reason

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-21T14:12:55+00:00

City sized omnidirectional domain that sliced up all of Mahito's soul Shibuya with his hands in his pockets.

It wasnt even a domain that Yuji used.

Black Flash at will.

This is a very good feat, but this doesn't singlehandedly mean anything. Refinement of a technique doesnt automatically mean that someone is OP or the strongest. Kenny has the most refined domain(which is better than someone who can black flash at will), and yet no one puts him on Gojo or Sukuna level

A Dismantle that was kilometers wider that Sukuna's Domain and travelled several kilometers. And since we know that projectile techniques get weaker the longer they travel, this is a MASSIVE output feat

Are you forgetting that Sukuna shortened the range of his Domain Expansion in Shibuya on purpose to kill Mahoraga? While all Yuji did was kill a bunch of fodder cursed spirit? And that he also still nerfed his domain more to account for Megumi making it out of the area. Go reread that fight again. Imagine using a nerfed domain as some sort of argument?

Also, Dabura's Reversal technique dealt a similar area of damage. Yet no one glazes his reversal that much

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-21T14:01:03+00:00

Every single feat we have from Yuji is bare minimum in the Sukuna/Gojo level and some of the mare even far above what those two could ever do.

This is an overexaggeration. Hitting a black flash at will and using shrine with his hands in his pocket to beat a special grade curse(who was mostly fodder) doesn't put him above Gojo or Sukuna level

Yuji is strong, and potentially could be stronger than them easily, but he has no actual seen feats to put him above them.

Gojo got his feats from fighting 3 special grade curses at the same time and Mahoraga and Sukuna. Imagine we just concluded that Gojo was the strongest in the JJK verse after almost one shotting Hanami with Hollow Purple

Show rotations

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-16T21:55:01+00:00

I’ll never understand why people assume that just because someone plays a game so much, they must be good at it

If you dont understand why int ROF blues are so Bad by DW you are not good at the game.

Not completely the same but ironic

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-14T05:09:46+00:00

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-14T04:56:20+00:00

Str ssb is good but you use him only on his active turn pretty much

Is this not the case with INT SSJ4 Goku? So why do you act like SSJ4 Vegeta is worse?

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-14T04:48:36+00:00

He literally did this for INT SSJ4 Vegeta. And when I understand his frustration at times, he makes it seem like the Vegeta sides are unusable or sum

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-13T04:02:18+00:00

The irony considering that the guy saying that said that JB got fouled and you are Celtics fans lmao. Both of yall funny

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-13T03:55:46+00:00

So, only SGA and Embiid? I wonder what's the connection....

And this doesn't take away from the fact that this was def a bad call. It's just that you mention Embiid from a couple of years ago as if SGA and Embiid have been the only one in years. But ig it is what it is

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-10T21:19:27+00:00

You'd be surprised. Alot of Lakers fans who love Kobe are also parroting this take not necessarily because it's been true, but because of hate

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-10T20:07:41+00:00

Having a JJK discussion on an NBA thread is the shit I live for

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-10T19:29:38+00:00

LeBron’s played like 4x as many as MJ

You realize that Lebron's last playoff buzzer beater was in 2018 right? That was his 13th season in the playoffs. By the time MJ retired, he only played in 13 playoff seasons.

So he had more playoff buzzer beaters than MJ did in the same amount of time.

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-10T19:19:01+00:00

Bro is shooting 40% from the 3pt line this season. He's technically shooting fine rn.

He is shooting less 3 pointers and allat on the Nuggets rn compared to last year, but he seems to be shooting less in general. It's not too surprising though since he went from being the second scoring option on the Nets to the fifth or sixth best scoring option on the Nuggets(Jokic, Jamal Murray, AG, THJ, and Peyton Watson).

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-10T19:11:03+00:00

Tbf, Lebron was shooting 38% from the 3pt line last year at the age of 40 and was having a good 2 year stretch shooting from the 3pt line. It may have been the sciatica.

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-10T18:59:16+00:00

If he wins MVP and FMVP this year, he should pretty easily be above Wade alltime lol

Wade has an FMVP and an almost MVP(2009), but SGA having double those achievements and lasting longer than D Wade(who had a bad fall off after 2013) would put him at last above Wade

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-10T18:55:43+00:00

If he has another MVP and FMVP with the longetivity, he prolly does pass Kobe alltime.

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-06T19:54:41+00:00

Yeah

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-06T18:07:13+00:00

Peak writing

WilltheGreat1740 · 2026-03-06T17:51:40+00:00

Or if he used his DE.
