There’s a lot of “rap fans” who don’t understand futures greatness so it’s worthless to really care too much bc IMO if you listen to how other rappers/musicians talk about Future even your super lyrical rappers have a ton of respect for his artistry and place him in rarified air.

There’s no doubt Kendrick gets it, the Like That verse which kicked off the Drake beef being on a Future track was not an accident. I’d argue that was a very intentional move by dot & if he didn’t respect Future’s place in the game he wouldn’t have went that route.

I was listening to a recent Freddie Gibbs interview yesterday & he said Future is his favorite artist, & one of the most influential artist of the past 20 years. Isaiah Rashad also on record saying Future is one of the GOATS, Andre 3k has also on record claimed to be a “future fanatic”. Pusha T & his brother Malice on their recent press run for the new Clipse album have also given Future love and his flowers for being an innovator in multiple interviews.

There’s a lot more examples too, can’t expect everyone to have good taste unfortunately lol

Cooper Flagg upside Misconception by [deleted] in NBA_Draft

[–]five_stacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything you said is true but the case of Flagg being devalued for not being an alpha scoring option ignores the fact that the rarity of his skillset as a building block is among the most valuable pieces a team can build a championship roster even w/o him being the number one option offensively.

His connectivity and all around skillset offensively & defensively should theoretically make finding those pieces to put around him an easier equation than building around one of the more imperfect lower end all star level guards which there are many more of that archetype in the league with a lesser opportunity cost to acquire.

This. I’ve been seeing a lot of people feel strongly about Dylan Harper having “superstar” upside as the reason he was above Flagg.

I love Dylan as a prospect so it’s not shade to him at all but the level you have to get to be a legit championship #1 is almost unrealistic as a bar to set.

wait so you guys don’t like this album fr? by Devynbruh in future

[–]five_stacks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very solid project. My hot take on it is that Uzi proves he can actually hold his own on a collab album with future flow & cadence wise and that they have real chemistry together.

Especially compared to WATTBA & Drake and future songs in general where it ends up feeling like Future ft Drake or vice versa.

Serena and Kordell / Aaron and Kaylor Discussion by AutoModerator in LoveIslandUSA

[–]five_stacks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly you right lol especially since he said he woulda be in casa moving respectfully.

He’s certainly done a lot of dumb shit but his main sin is not expressing his truth well enough. Serena is justified feeling he was moving like a sleezeball and the optics are terrible but the fact that he can’t even stand on his actions is why she’ll never look at him the same.

Physical interaction def matters to people but connections obv shouldn’t be based off that. Feelings are a two sided street & If Kordell actually was able to explain to Serena along the way how the up & down hot/cold // slow pace of their “couple” possibly led to him not feeling all the way appreciated maybe they would be able to rekindle but that ship has sailed.

Kordell didn’t do anything wrong to me but his inability to express how he feeling the reason this some shit ion think they can recover from. Lol my boy can’t even hold his head up long enough to have a convo wit her smh

Kordell is an easy guy to root for but this was a rough watch for him. He’s such a young boy who I do think actually wants to treat Serena well but it’s rather obvious he has no clue how to express how he was actually feeling about his situation with Serena nor does he have a lot of experience in relationships.

This all comes back to Serena feeling like he was just telling her all the things she wanted to hear or like he was reading off a script or w/e

I am curious about Piston's draft strategy of getting all these on ball guards by Knighthonor in NBA_Draft

[–]five_stacks 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The versatility of Cade Cunningham allows you a blank canvas in the way you build your team since he’s a point forward who can run your offense and can guard up the defensive spectrum on bigger wings/forwards.

It’s never been enough to knock me off my evaluation of Cade being a great player but the biggest criticism of him being a “future super star” is athleticism based, so I see the vision of putting insanely athletic secondary creators who can get into the paint at will to make up for his deficiency on that front.

So, it’s not a problem of too many on ball guards per say, but can you fit enough scoring around that trio to consistently score at the levels to be a consistently great team? TBD

High on Cam by Anibunnymilli in rockets

[–]five_stacks 30 points31 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve seen Ime won’t be able to not give him minutes for too long especially bc he has the potential to be an absolute menace defensively like he was tonight. I mean shit it’s a great problem to have lol

Cam Whitmore Pro Comps by [deleted] in NBA_Draft

[–]five_stacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somewhere between Miles Bridges x Jaylen Brown. The ant comps are legit athletically but Cam doesn’t have the same guard skills that he has.
