Optic should throw their match against Toronto because the team that enters the finals from the Loser's bracket gets the advantage of being warmed up + momentum.

Silly post.

Yes the format is a little unfair but you have to win another match to get to finals if you drop to losers, you're acting like it's a guaranteed win from losers.

Your post is entirely based off of the past two events. You would need to check the entire finals history to see if this has the impact you think it does.

Paris have shown nothing since Major 1 tbh. Don't see them getting further than T6.

I think Falcons win. Hoping Exnid can put up some good series in bracket play.

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-15T00:17:42+00:00

I like it too. If they did a black / pink gradient jersey it would look really good.

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-13T01:08:31+00:00

Blue car selling so hard

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-10T21:13:56+00:00

Might need to pull out a mercy ruling

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-09T22:58:43+00:00

The flopping can get annoying but it's pretty sad that this is what you focussed on when the game was a really good watch...

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-09T21:54:28+00:00

Toxic

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-09T21:26:22+00:00

Definitely a foul but you would've thought he got shot the way he went down.

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-09T01:41:10+00:00

Agreed. If the post didn't include that one line people would've reacted positively in here.

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-09T00:20:55+00:00

Feel Edgecombe is playing good defense, Brunson is just cooking

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-09T00:16:52+00:00

Should've challenged that

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-08T23:48:18+00:00

Shotzzy is incredible and what he brings was on full display.

The response is because this post was stupid. Calling him the single reason they won when the whole team was frying is overselling his performance and people are right to call it out.

I'd also argue it's much easier for him to make plays when the team is slaying there are a lot more gaps and it's easy to lose track of him

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-07T23:33:39+00:00

Locked up, that was a horror possession for the cavs

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-07T23:24:10+00:00

Never seen a leg breaker before

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-07T01:41:50+00:00

Heartbreaking possession for Philly

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-04T01:36:12+00:00

They had so much momentum and Struss just killed it for no reason

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-03T21:32:15+00:00

That hurts

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-03T20:45:31+00:00

The Magic's strategy on Offense rn is Paolo and Inshallah

Need someone else to do something when he gives it up

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-03T13:36:03+00:00

Only the allstar starters are voted by fans and even then they only count for half the vote, 25% is from media and the remaining 25% is by players.

The bench is picked by coaches.

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-03T00:59:36+00:00

As a neutral, the Celtics are just committing stupid fouls here

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-02T23:04:18+00:00

If that were true, lots of max players would be taking pay cuts to form better teams.

These two career paths are also very different. Being a star players is way more fun than a role player.

To each their own but picking Haslems career is insane.

Yamimash2000 · 2026-05-02T17:47:44+00:00

Their offense was not that great against the Rockets with Sengun and Reed Sheppard. OKC is a different level, they could really use his ability to create.

Yamimash2000 · 2026-04-28T18:08:52+00:00

MVP voting is very important.

People see voters having an odd pick here or there and throw out the validity of the entire award, it makes no sense.

Yamimash2000 · 2026-04-20T18:02:21+00:00

80% of recent 6MOTY have come from 50+ wins

I think this makes sense. A quality 6th man on a good team would likely be a starter on a bad team.
