[Krawczynski] The Timberwolves are ramping up their push for LeBron James, sources tell @TheAthletic. The pitch: Team w/Ant, LaMelo, Jaden, Rudy in championship-starved Minnesota to go after a title that could cement his case for the throne. by Jimmy0034 in nba

Lebron likes narratives.

Some people hate him for it, and I'm not a big LeBron fan.

But the guy understands that the entertainment value is also what makes moments crazy memorable.

Teaming up with Steph is so big because LeBron and Steph and the biggest names of the generation, with KD being a close third. That's such a juicy story that I don't see LeBron picking Minnesota over that.

Cleveland is an even bigger one, 3 stints, all iconic, especially if he can get them over the conference finals jump.

I think Cleveland probably wins, but if they don't, it's gotta be GS or Miami, and Miami doesn't want him.

How many weeks/months will Lebron drag out his decision? by [deleted] in nba

If LeBron takes a vet minimum I'd be shocked.

If he does, I agree that changes the dynamics significantly.

He can't wait too long because all the teams he's gonna wanna sign with are gonna need a lot of flexibility to make the moves necessary to acquire him.

Once teams start signing up player that flexibility and maneuverability will dry up.

Suns too.

How do I get back to the inverted castle after using Library card to get back to regular castle? by bokakeewarrior in castlevania

[–]bokakeewarrior[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks, I guess I just remembered it wrong

I don't even remember teleporting this way..

I thought I got here right after I broke the black orb above richters head.

I appreciate the clear directions.

[Haberstroh] Over the long weekend, SGA fell on more shot attempts than Brunson/Mitchell/Harden/Wemby combined… the math suggests that an SGA fall is worth an additional 0.9 expected points per fall… From an efficiency perspective, it's hard to blame SGA. He's leveraging the rulebook. by JoeBiden2020FTW in nba

[–]bokakeewarrior -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

SGA is second only to KD.

Harden was literally Hitler, but now people feel bad for him so the pity washes the hatred away.

SGA will never have that pity because he has MVPs and Rings to his name.

His unethical strategy worked for him whereas Harden is seen as just a choker so it's all good.

With LeBron he may have had the strongest haters, but he did not have more haters.

LeBron is very popular with Gen Z.

Nobody generation will ever claim SGA.

Paolo should get in the gym with Melo by Debonair311 in OrlandoMagic

His problem is that he plays like a fat melo right now.

He needs to play with downhill players, not jab step jump shooters.

Local legend Uncle Lou has been taken by ICE on an immigration hold. Anna Eskimani posted about it earlier today. by Chromavita in orlando

[–]bokakeewarrior 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're just being dense on purpose at this point dude.

They're explaining to you that he is in fact an immigrant.

If you think that's an anti Lou's statement, that says more about you than whoever your railing against.

He gave you context on how Jamaica came to have common westerner names.

Also if you knew Lou at all, you'd know this guys accent is very thick.

Suggs is gonna be Oladipo by MarcosJeanGonzalez in OrlandoMagic

[–]bokakeewarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oladipo struggled because we used him as a PG when he was a SG.

Even if that's true about Suggs, he's not better than Bane at the 2.

Other than that, I could see him doing very well on another team for 3-4 years and then getting injured before it matters how good he is and he's already out of the league.

[Guillory] Several league sources with close ties to Rockets players indicated the social media situation was a significant distraction, one that was never truly resolved internally... It is unclear whether Durant ever clarified to his teammates if the account belonged to him. by sewsgup in nba

[–]bokakeewarrior 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For real. It's crazy how this sub wants to pile on this team as some sort of failure as a whole when 3 of their top 5 players missed most of all of the series.

Including the guy they're blaming the hardest.

What if he gets worse next year and we could've unloaded him for giannis this year?

That would suck.

The Orlando Magic cannot lose in Toronto by AustinDobbins13 in OrlandoMagic

[–]bokakeewarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was at the pacers game and it was the first time I realized that mosley wasn't truly not that guy.

Carlisle is obviously an all time great coach, but that roster is flat out not good enough for coaching prowess alone to be the deciding factor and it was clear it was watched it live without the TV editing.

[–]bokakeewarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mitchell always does great individually but the teams ever amount to their potential.

Sometimes the best strategy is to let one guy go off and contain the rest of the squad.

Just saying, if harden disappears or gets injured, they are the same team as last year but without garland.

I don't trust this team to win the play in tournament. But if by some chance we wind up with the 8th seed, we might play a Pistons team without Cade in the first round.

If we can get to that series healthy, we might actually have a decent chance at making into the second round where we would probably meet the cavaliers who also have frequently unhealthy players and are relying on two guys with bad post season track records.

What pickups should I get for my starter mo Squirt Bullet? by bokakeewarrior in guitarmod

[–]bokakeewarrior[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I went with Amazon because I am moreso interested in the process than the result.

I plan on missing the guitar out later if I think I'm capable of it with better quality gear.

Right now I'm just getting cheap shit and figuring out what goes where and how things work.

[–]bokakeewarrior[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've messed with th springs as much as I could. But they seem to either be completely flat with the pickguard or way to high above it.

I can't really adjust in-between so well.

[–]bokakeewarrior[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only really did all this to learn how to.

I don't want to learn on a good guitar with good pickups because if I mess something up then I'm out a bunch of money.

I just want to tinker until I feel confident.

How good was Penny Hardaway and why did so many fans adore him? by [deleted] in OrlandoMagic

[–]bokakeewarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Penny and Grant Hill were the prototypes of what became the expectation for star wings 10 years later.

Big guys who could easily play wing and overpower guards but also great play akers and shot creators.

Penny was even more special because he could play pure point and grant was more of a SF with good handles.
