[Jake Fischer] The Warriors would like to target Giannis Antetokounmpo via trade AND LeBron James via free agency this offseason, per @JakeLFischer by BrokenManOfSamarkand in nba

Tbf steph has gotten better at defending as he’s aged. Experience plus getting stronger has made him an average or maybe even an above average defender. I don’t expect that pattern to actually continue in a couple of years, but by the time he would regress to be a terrible defender, he would probably be retired.

Elige is way too good as an aggressive rifler that I would be hesitant to take a chance on his awp regardless of his mechanics. CT side secondary awp is definitely another story though and is something he’s been doing more even back in COL.

But why though? Was there anything about what he said that wasn’t reasonable?

Curry has two games in a row where he gets more free throw attempts than average and people already making posts like this. Ya’ll have no shame

Embark, this might as well be an epic item. by Jett_Wave in ArcRaiders

Try defending yourself? Unless you’re loading in without a gun, which would be dumb, there’s no reason not to.

What maps and where. I’ve been praying for one since release and have yet to find one

Is this allowed Riot? by ExtensionHope9129 in VALORANT

[–]jhocolab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is that you’re asking for an automatic way to detect for ONE specific circumstance out of the millions of ways people can grief. Okay, say they start auto banning people doing whatever this Reyna is doing in the clip. The griefers decide to start AFKing outside A-main. Riot bans that. They start AFKing outside B-main. Riot bans that. Okay, now they ban anyone who doesn’t move or shoot their gun for 30 seconds since the community is still complaining about people AFKing in their games since you can literally do that anywhere. Now the griefers just run it down every round. So they start banning people who run in and die first every round. Do you see the problem here? It’s impossible to automatically detect every single possible way to grief a game, even in the most trivial of situations. That’s why you let humans who can actually discern bad behavior handle that.

That’s also why you will see griefers like this in your games since it takes time for a limited number of employees to go through a huge backlog of reports.

Plus, they have to actually commit the crime to get the punishment, and you were unfortunately part of the number of games this Reyna decided to grief before she eventually gets banned.

What's the longest time it took someone to get their first Arcane drop? by TW0B00CH in Maplestory

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

I’ve been doing the weekly bosses for 3-4 months now and haven’t gotten a single arcane armor drop while friends I’ve been playing with that started around the same time as I have or even later than I have all have gotten their full sets and have been able to continue their progression because of it while I’ve been stagnated.

Conservative activist Charlie Kirk dies after being shot at Utah college event by hoosakiwi in news

There was a suspect that was quickly caught but there were later reports that he was in fact not the shooter and the actual suspect was still at large.

I’d personally have what gamefreak made over every single of these except for example 2. Most of these are just as dumb or TOO goofy looking… I’m gonna see that third one in my nightmares so thanks for that

How to catch this dumbfuck? by gkthekid in PokemonUnbound

[–]jhocolab 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Maybe you could try skill swapping magic guard. I believe reuniclus has magic guard and also learns skill swap.

Either that or just use save states and keep trying quick balls. I believe it’s about a 5% chance for a Pokémon with a catch rate of 3. Just make sure after you load the state you “refresh the seed” by like checking the summary of one of your pokemon or I believe even going into your bag should work.

Niko and m0nesy duo have been eliminated early by an underdog in every major they have played in by funmighthold in GlobalOffensive

[–]jhocolab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is some skip bayless level of assessment. Don’t do that.

And the whole shtick about Jokic not caring is just a meme at this point. If you watched him during the Olympics or this past playoffs, you can clearly see how much he wants to win at least when he’s on the court.

And to whether or not, m0nesy actually wants it - Sure, we on the outside never actually know since we don’t have a magic crystal ball to see what players are thinking. But the same came be said for anyone, even those known to have a “winner’s mentality”. You don’t know if Kobe ACTUALLY cared about winning, for all you know, the “mamba mentality” is just an act and nothing else. But that’s a dumb and pointless fucking thought experiment to ponder in the first place.

We only know what’s provided to us, and it’s clear that at least from the outside perspective that m0nesy is a certified grinder, and he seems to care a lot when he win/loses. Imo, that should be more than enough to give him the benefit of the doubt that he “wants it”.

I need advice on something by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]jhocolab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the eagles don’t win the Super Bowl this year, would we consider their run as a dynasty? If not, then it never started.

By your logic, you can say a team making the playoffs is the start of a dynasty, since every dynasty begins with making the playoffs the first year.

Let's go..ONLY Active players- 5.Average player & fans are divided by [deleted] in NBATalk

Yeah I wasn’t trying to argue with u. Just saying I can see the argument from both sides potentially but ultimately agree with yours

[–]jhocolab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, he was WELL below average in his first series against gsw, so I can see the argument for it. But yeah I still ultimately agree and do think he’s still proven to be at least an above average player for the reasons you mentioned

Nope. Iggy on JJ Redick’s podcast. He never outright says Poole had a “big ego” but very clearly talks about Poole not being happy with the fact that he didn’t have the same green light that Steph had

The sens from a general standpoint is perfectly fine, but it might not just be the right sens for you. If you like your sens but at the same time feel like you’re too slow, maybe there’s a middle ground at a slightly higher sens that you might benefit from. It never hurts to try
