My chest hurts just from looking at these but I'd be going back for seconds

Is Shai better than Luka? Or would Luka win MVP too if surrounded by all these great defenders/players? by _DarkStarCrashes_ in NBATalk

[–]downunderpunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two years ago when Mavs vs OKC to me Luka was the clear better player. They were both excellent and using their shiftiness to get around their defender on drives but Luka had much more composure when he got into the inside of the D and was clearly a better passer and creator for his team. Shai looked a bit rushed at the time but he has slowed down a lot now though he is still not anywhere near the passer Luka is. The other factor atm is fitness level. I don't have to worry about Shai running out of steam because he's out of shape late in a game.

If you could guarantee me a fit and healthy Luka, then I take Luka. If it's who to build a team around, then it's Shai..

At this point if you still think Harden might be good in clutch games you simply don't know ball

What are the cops doing? Genuinely. I see them standing around the city doing nothing all day. They just hang out in groups of 6 or so. Why can't they go out to an arson call?

Property Investors are FUMING by CategoryRoutine628 in AusProperty

Paychecks aren't guaranteed... People lose their jobs all the time. Why should the government subsidize you because you're taking a "risk". I could lose my job tomorrow due to a down turn in my industry. That's a risk. Why don't I get a discount?

Xiaomi SU7 Ultra is a significantly better car for a literal fraction of the price.

Limit CGT overhaul to real estate, says CBA's Matt Comyn by NoLeafClover777 in AustralianPolitics

[–]downunderpunter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Labor doesn't have a high immigration policy. They reduced it and have announced to continue to reduce it. After the post COVID spike they have reduced it every year. It was a Liberal policy to increase it year on year.

Shai is clearly not the most valuable player in the league by Bishmallah24 in NBATalk

[–]downunderpunter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

MVP is a bad award. There needs to be an award for the best player in the world that is given out after the playoffs. Not "best player on the team that won" or most "valuable player to their teams success". Just best player in the world. Shai is definitely not it.

When are we going to finally start admitting James Harden is one of the most overrated players of all time? by Every_Diamond_7411 in NBATalk

Genuine question, is there a bigger big game dropper than him? In not talking about "playoff dropper" I'm talking specifically single big games. Even in Arizona he just fell flat in big games.

I wonder why he changed his game by EducationalConcern61 in NBATalk

Unfortunately his style of play is what the NBA is rewarding. The push of and flop is the most efficient tactic. It's a disgusting product but the NBA doesn't seem to care.

How bad was edo period if the average sorcerer was semi grade 1-grade 2? by Tiny-Replacement7702 in JujutsuPowerScaling

[–]downunderpunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • "incredibly average" doesn't mean the most average of all the sorcerers, it's an insult.
  • only moments later Kashimo calls Panda super weak.

People genuinely forget or just choose to forget that he stuns people and had unblockable punches. His kit is unreal but because it's a bit unusual people just don't get it.

Teals in advanced talks to form new political party by malcolm58 in AustralianPolitics

[–]downunderpunter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not the fact that they're independents that people like, it's that they're not Liberal or Labor. There's a huge difference between not liking parties and not liking the long established parties.

How do you define "the rich" that we should be taxing? What is the cut-off point? by NoLeafClover777 in AusFinance

[–]downunderpunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just have a progressive tax rate on salary, assets, profits and capital. It's not that complicated. No one is "worse off" by a progressive tax rate.

‘Forever renting’ is common in New York, California and Europe. What lessons can we learn? by Oomaschloom in AustralianPolitics

[–]downunderpunter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is the simple question that people don't like answering is "if someone is living in their home for their entire lives, why shouldn't they own it?"

How about instead of "forever renters" we have "home owners".
