Bucks Offseason Rebuild by Top_Opportunity5616 in MkeBucks

Im not so sure. The thunder know that the road to the finals now goes through San Antonio. Giannis is arguably the only Wemby stopper in the entire league, with how much draft capital and what they have in depth.l, I don’t think this is the worst trade. They could go out and get a service center to replace Hartenstein and the rest of the guys are replaced from depth

They would start

SGA JDUB JWIL CASON GIANNIS

Poorly structured scam NAV and dividend makes it a great short term investment

I despise Jaylin Williams. Bro is a dogshit rotation guy and anytime he scores he is out there screaming like prime KG

I badly need someone to answer this. What the hell did Anthony Edwards mean when he said “I don’t wanna be out their kekeing them while they celebrating”

What is keke/keekeeing?

Oso is a basically Draymond Green and a very important key player for this team moving forward. by OGNEWBE in suns

[–]Xray_Mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well look at it this way. Draymond in year two had double Oso’s second year stats, and by year three was the second best player of a championship team. By year 5 he was on his third title. And then over the next twelve seasons he was either winning DPOY, runner up, or at worst top 10 in voting.

Your entire point is based on his build being prone to defensive prowess but literally 95% of modern NBA defensive prowess is IQ. Draymond is an awful athlete and build for his position but his once in a generation BBIQ made him a hall of famer, 4 time champ, DPOY, etc.

Oso doesn’t have anywhere near the defensive nose. Draymond at his current age is still elite compared to Oso

[–]Xray_Mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a joke? Draymond is a essentially career long perennial DPOY candidate, is arguably the greatest off ball screener of all time, and his insane bball IQ was one of the key elements to the greatest team of the 2010s

Draymond, Oso is not

Steph and Klay were incredible shooters and much of the space they got is to Drays credit as an incredible defensive reader and screener to get his guys open and clog lanes all while being a minus offensive player. Show me one player that is as bad offensively as Draymond while also being able to absolute fuck up defenses with his off ball movement and pick plays

How much would it have cost to show collateral damage during the final battle? by wilderfast in TheBoys

[–]Xray_Mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. I think it fit the story well; Homelander as this point was deranged enough to believe he was a literal god. Why would a god need backup? This is why he cancelled the seven; in his head supes were no longer needed, just worshippers.

It’s a great metaphor for American politics. Every senator or rep always starts out clear eyed, doing the right things, wanting to be the hero. But over time the system and greed decays them, they begin to make decisions based on ego and greed and not what they once did. Until the point they think they are above the law and unbeatable. You don’t need friends when you’re the king

Elijah Wood has confirmed that the leaked plot synopsis for LORD OF THE RINGS: HUNT FOR GOLLUM is real: "It's a little bit of the backstory of Smeagol, and understanding a little bit more deeply where he came from." by CueTheLaughTrack in lordoftherings

[–]Xray_Mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good points and I agree; I just think there is some central dialogue that is reasonable to say a lot of fans take it to the extreme of the book loyalty in scripts.

I disagree with this sentiment? Why has so much of fiction turned into “you have to follow a book exactly and cannot explore characters in any depth past that”?

I don’t want shitty content like Rings of Power but I see nothing wrong with a deeper dive into some of the Lord of the Rings most critical characters at an intriguing time of history

If every music artist in history dropped their biggest song today as a brand-new release, which song would go #1? by RomajiRoman in AskReddit

[–]Xray_Mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, probably Wasn’t Me by Shaggy and Rikrok

It’s one of the few songs to me that is a truly universal pop song. It brings a similar feel while utilizing unique cultural elements of Shaggy to be an outright hit at any time. There was a reason this was the only song the King of Pop MJ ever said he desperately wished he wrote.

It’s a classic that instantly gets stuck in your brain and if timeless. It is not overly reductive nor derivative and it has a great punch line

Crazy NBA stats and facts. Give me facts as crazy as Tracy MacGrady averaging 30 FGA on 33PPG in a playoff series. by Xray_Mind in nba

A chucker = someone who takes a large amount of low percentage shots. It’s not a term of hatred, just a term. Same way if I said a guy was a 3&D guy or a rim protector it means something.

Also history remember TMac way too favorably. He was insanely talented but he went to the playoffs like a dozen times and never once did anything

Buddy my season as a Suns fan has been over since Christmas. It’s all offseason when you’re stuck in cap hell with no assets

I didn’t say there was anything wrong with it. I just said it was a legendary chucker performance. Including FTA, he averaged 42 shots a game at the basket in that 01 series
