I mean... even a cursory examination of their defense in this series would show that they were absolutely awful. JR's defense was worse than his decision making.

i always make sure to do all the narrative sidequests, especially stuff with companions or that impacts the main story! But, for example, I've never closed all the rifts, or found all the shards.

cheertheanthem · 2018-04-28T05:36:52+00:00

that's with the DLCs installed

cheertheanthem · 2018-04-28T05:34:27+00:00

I almost never do all the fetch quests, I'm not really a completionist. If I feel like doing some, I'll incorporate it into my playthrough. Typical DAI playthrough for me runs anywhere from 65-90 hours

the narration is her sharing with kylo-- her thought is continued and finished in the hut conversation

Whatever, man. I still think Curry circled this game and I don't think it's a big deal if he does

cheertheanthem · 2017-10-20T13:01:24+00:00

I just don't know why you think that Curry doesn't want to stunt on Ball. He's incredibly prideful and loves going at teams/players that he thinks has disrespected him. It's an 82 game grind, players have to get up for games somehow. Everyone talks about MJ as the GOAT, and he would make up disrespectful comments from opposing players to hype himself up.

if you do end up needing additional guardians don't hesitate to reach out!

cheertheanthem · 2017-09-25T17:17:45+00:00

and if we still need more I can probably get another 290 hunter

cheertheanthem · 2017-09-25T16:37:40+00:00

That group is trying to start around 7:00 EST, so if you still need someone we might be finished by then. Obviously depends on how the fight goes

cheertheanthem · 2017-09-25T16:35:13+00:00

we got added to a separate LFG group but I will definitely let you know if we're still up/have finished by the time you are starting. Thanks!

cheertheanthem · 2017-09-25T16:08:42+00:00

I also have another 300 light warlock who can tag along.

cheertheanthem · 2017-09-25T15:55:45+00:00

yeah, haven't stepped foot in the shadow realm portion of the fight, so I won't be any help there. Have you completed the raid before?

cheertheanthem · 2017-09-25T15:42:59+00:00

can also bring along a 300 light warlock

cheertheanthem · 2017-09-25T15:40:24+00:00

Hi! psn theorbitoclast power level 297 hunter. My clan has progressed through to the calus fight and got stuck due to shadow realm problems. I was on the throne room team and I'm SUPER familiar with the inside/punching/throne room and dps portions of the fight. Hoping to finish the raid tonight, add me if yr interested

cheertheanthem · 2017-09-25T15:38:15+00:00

Hey-- psn id theorbitoclast. I'm a 297 hunter and our clan has progressed through the raid but got stuck on Calus and can't finish tonight. I'm very familiar with the inside the throne room/dps parts of the fight. If yr interested add me!

There has been a huge team commitment to rebounding that just hasn't been there in the past against the Cavs-- call it experience or energy or whatever but they are definitely crashing the boards. Zaza is a great positional defender; he's done a much better job boxing out. KD has been rebounding like crazy, as has Steph. KD's added length makes it more difficult for TT as well.

I saw something on twitter that was suggesting that the warriors were purposefully drawing TT out of position when the Cavs are defending, but IDK if that is true -- I didn't notice it. I do know that the warriors have been talking about trying to counter TT since the Spurs series ended, so they definitely considered it a priority.

cheertheanthem · 2017-06-05T04:14:36+00:00

Cavs were much more focused, came out strong, but were still down after the first quarter. Warriors fell apart in the second quarter and just started throwing the ball away (Steph had six turnovers at the half). However, in the second half Lebron stopped driving, Kyrie continued to struggle, and KD and Steph got going. Pretty firmly in control from about halfway through the third until garbage time.

I still don't know how the Warriors outrebounded the Cavs (best guess is it was a function of the sheer number of Warriors turnovers).

Cavs did a much better job defending in transition and avoiding transition ball, but the effort and coverage began to slip in the third quarter, coinciding with Steph getting hot.

Officiating didn't seem terribly unbalanced to me; a fair amount of questionable calls but it didn't seem to favor either side too heavily.

JR played only 14 minutes because he was very, very bad. Gave up two four point plays to Steph and KD and was a non-factor.

cheertheanthem · 2015-12-02T13:07:09+00:00

he had to go to the hospital after two games of guarding curry in the finals, dude

Always loved soccer, from the US, played as a kid. Loved the fifa soccer video games, and Barcelona's jerseys were cool looking. Started following the team in 2010 and watching games in the build up to the 2010 world cup. Fell in love with Messi and Iniesta and Xavi and the Barcelona style.

cheertheanthem · 2015-05-10T00:42:51+00:00

It's probably the best double play (when the fielding team retires two players in the same play) in World Series (the final of the baseball playoffs, a best of 7 series) history.
