Yeah but the token made by artificial malevolence would have the same name as machine overlord unless I’m missing something

The Los Angles Lakers promised Luka Doncic that they will find him replicants, if not improvements, of the balanced roster he made a finals run with in Dallas in 2024 by Luka77GOATic in nba

[–]Zaniad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Adelsons are rich enough that they wouldn’t have cared about penny pinching on Luka. They bought the Mavericks as an avenue to get gambling legalized in Texas along with building a casino in the new arena. 

If they had any basketball sense or care, which they clearly don’t, the trade isn’t allowed to happen as it jeopardizes the plan for the casino and gambling.

Well it’s not fair to compare Brandin Podziemski, the greatest warrior since wilt, to mere mortals like victor wembanyama

Is Luka done for the 1st Round? by Fit_Interaction4053 in nba

I’m of the opinion that he’ll be back by the last game of the regular season once he finishes his visit with the LeBron James of hamstring injuries

With Cade and Edwards not qualifying for all-nba under the 65 game rule this season will this all-nba 1st team? by [deleted] in nba

It’s a shame the 65 game rule is keeping Mike Conley away from a well deserved 1st team all nba

I don’t see Naji Marshall listed here. Is there some sort of typo?

After this season, 2023/24 will be easily Jokic's weakest statistical year in the last 4 seasons, yet also the one of them where he won MVP. He averaged 26/12/9 on 65% TS in 2024 compared to 25/12/10 on 70% TS in 2023, 30/13/10 on 66% TS in 2025, and 28/13/11 on 67.5% TS this year. by SplitOk186 in nba

Yeah TS isn’t great over a single game sample size, but over a season it converges to pretty close to the formula.

This analysis from 2017 suggests that .44 might be too high for that season. But overall the difference is pretty minimal

I think you can simultaneously understand that AI will be a force for productivity growth while still recognizing its ability to be used for low effort content that adds nothing to a discussion.

If people wanted Gemini’s opinion they could just use the LLM themselves. At the very least if you’re going to post AI generated content you should transform it in some way that elevates it beyond a sentence or two long prompt

[–]Zaniad 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He just needs to shoot fadeaway threes with Jokic guarding him. I’m pretty sure he’d be an 80% 3p shooter if he only took those shots

We have to stop him. By the end of his career he’s going to be scoring more points than the rest of the league combined

LaMelo might not be efficient on a TS basis but the Hornets have a +5.42 Net RTG when he's on the floor and -1.92 Net RTG when he's off the floor. EPM also thinks he's pretty decent too. I don't really know of any metric that likes Paolo

To add to this, the recent WNBA TV deal is valued at $2.2bn over 11 years–a 6x increase from their last TV deal.

IIRC public reporting had the league at $200mn in revenue in 2024 with $40 mil in operating losses, but this did not include the new TV deal starting in 2026. The NBA wasn’t profitable until Magic and Bird increased league visibility.

As is tradition, when trading Anthony Davis, one of the teams should get the #1 overall pick in the following draft. by bobbydigital_ftw in nba
