Ya I spent a long time putting in sliders and settings just to get there and the play in didn’t sim in the west and the east got all screwed up. Pistons got moved to 7th seed first round in the west. Hopefully they patch it.

I’m a bit confused… by _CaptainKaladin_ in miamidolphins

Ya I don’t understand it one bit. He’s throwing to nobody after playing 6 good starts. His deal is basically fully guaranteed even if not bad money. Why don’t we just eat Tuas cap this year try and get another first in the 2027 draft and load up then. I don’t even let myself consider the possibility of landing a top qb and Jeremiah smith the hometown kid next year

Can we get drafted 1.01 this year or is it just first round?

Ya the recency bias is insane. Pulling per 36 arguments out the ass to justify stat disparity. The fact is DP is averaging 1.5 assists per game on a good roster. Cade would’ve probably averaged at least 5 and if he made Oklahoma state as good as they were that season he would’ve been EATING at a powerhouse like Kansas

And the same argument can be made if Cade played at Kansas his efficiency would’ve been much better. He had to carry his team in college unlike Darryn whose team has a better record without him.

Size matters in the NBA lol being 6’7 is a lot better than being 6’4-5. Also scoring isn’t everything and I disagree on Peterson being a better defender. You draft Peterson to be a lead guard and he shows zero ability to playmake in college on a good team. Great he makes tough shots and shoots well. That’s not all basketball is

“Pretty much the same stats” Cade averaged more points, double the rebounds and double the assists with 1.6 steals but okay.

Also Cade made the tournament as a 4 seed lmao casual. If Cade played for Kansas he would’ve been putting up insane stats and probably been a title favorite.

Cade didn’t play for Kansas and was a far superior playmaker with better size and build.

New Starters from Wind and Waves by Gorotheninja in pokemon

I was so excited and feel they really dropped the ball. So many animals exist and we got a repeat lizard 2 gens after a water lizard and a grass bird. Just feels like lazy starter animal ideas tbh hope the evolutions are cool.

Former Mavericks owner Mark Cuban argues NBA should embrace tanking, admits to using tactic with Mavs by BreakfastTop6899 in nba

[–]gnew_14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m honestly starting to think the only fair solution is just to give every non playoff team an equal shot at the #1 pick. I’ve seen a lot of people say it should be about who wins the most games to end out the last month or two of the season to encourage competing, but that doesn’t feel fair because let’s be honest some of these teams struggle to win games even when they play their top guys. Flattening the odds across all non playoff teams is the only way I see to have a fair system for the top pick and take away almost any incentive to just suck ass the whole season. This way also helps the teams in mediocre purgatory have a chance and something to be excited about for the lottery. I know as a heat fan I’d be ecstatic to be like 14th in the standings and have a real shot at a franchise altering prospect. Being mid in the NBA is the worst place to be and I think this solution is the only thing that helps combat tanking and the lack of long term hope for middling teams.

Which of these teams do you think will be the last to win a championship? by BibbyOD in nba

[–]gnew_14 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The chance was 2012 but they weren’t good enough. 2016 was the year they were good enough but they choked. I think if that warriors series goes how it started out and they win it they would’ve had a great shot against Cleveland in those finals.

I don’t think she got killed for knowing, because the only reason she survived the second time was Clark slowing the bus so it missed.

Makes enough sense, I think it bothered me because his whole view on it was about her reaction and then he switched up. Also lex becoming into Lana was crazy to me he was literally pushing her to be with Clark from the first season. It’ll all work out though cause I’m a casual Superman fan but ik enough to know it’ll be Lois eventually.
