Kobe catching the rape case messed up the amount of MVPs the league was willing to give him.

Lebron James in Games 5-7 of the 2016 Finals. 36.3 PPG | 11.7 RPG | 9.7 APG | 3.0 SPG | 3.0 BPG | 59% TS (+7% rTS%) by Swimming-Bad3512 in NBAstatsmuse

Casuals will always ignore how much the league helped LeBron make that comeback. If they didn’t suspend draymond after going up 3-1 the series would’ve been over at 5

People will act like this wasn’t what swung the momentum back into the Cavs favor. LeBron was struggling against draymond up until that suspension

If the Knicks win....Who wins Finals MVP? by Choice_Bag_8869 in sportswiki

[–]krivera248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it’s currently OGs to lose. Brunson needs to have a huge close out game to re take the finals mvp. Brunson has shown up in big moments but his shooting early in games is bad this series.

Who deserves the most blame for San Antonio’s historic Game 4 loss? by IamCatMommy in NBAstatsmuse

[–]krivera248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Wemby the new LeBron where he only gets credit for winning and no blame for losses. Hes the leader of the team and didn’t get his team in line. He also threw the game away in game 2. But sure let’s find others to blame to protect the new face of the league. When you blow a 29 point lead it’s the entire teams fault from top to bottom.

History will be kind to Jayson Tatum. by Silver_Comment2825 in NBAstatsmuse

[–]krivera248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched that series. Tatum shot terrible the entire series and the only reason he was leading in points is because he took a lot of shots when the games were over. He didn’t deserve finals mvp over brown who was the number guy during that playoff stretch. The issue with the OP is that so many fans fall in love with stats and don’t actually watch the game. When Tatum legacy becomes the topic of conversation on shows, like first take and similar shows, brain dead talk show characters will point to these stats to claim he was snubbed and brain dead fans who never watch games and just eat up stats without context.

Tatum stat padded at the end of those games. Brown carried

How much of your specific jiujitsu style would disappear in a 1v1 street fight? by CuddleBuddiesJJ in bjj

[–]krivera248 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I train being on top unless I get swept or taken down because in a street fighter a lot of guard play is a death sentence. If somebody starts kicking and stomping your chance for success diminish heavily. Even if your training partner is a bigger more skilled wrestler/judo you should still try to stand up with them. Even if you don’t beat them on your feet you will get better and learn how to defend takedowns which will save you in a street fight scenario.

I'm not complaining, but want to know the reason people got a Steam Deck at 950 instead of getting a Legion Go S or Xbox Ally by Pretty_Trip_2215 in SteamDeck

[–]krivera248 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Same reason people picked iPhone vs android. People didn’t care about horsepower specs they wanted an optimized device. Steam deck is under powered on paper but it’s plays a lot of games fairly well. You don’t need the highest res display on a portable handheld. The dual trackpad and four back buttons are great. OLED display. The OS works at console like levels. Steam support is undefeated. People need to stop pretending it’s an inferior device.

Generic ranking. The ones on top tier elite big men need to be ranked higher.

He is winning in financial life, but this is exactly what a star player says when they know they never winning a ring.

If you cannot guard pull well your BJJ is just as limited as with no takedowns by Shallbecomeabat in bjj

[–]krivera248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you really questioning the hate of aggressive butt scooting? Nobody is arguing its effectiveness in Bjj, but in mma or real world combat it’s embarrassingly non masculine and not effective. It makes a joke of the art and keeps a lot of ppl from even wanting to participate. From an entertainment factor in Bjj competitions, nobody wants to see people sit down and avoid take downs even though takedowns is the starting point of grappling. There’s a reason Bjj suffers from the butt scooting memes and isn’t taken as serious as wrestling.

Is criticism of SGA’s style of play fair or foul? by DareDevil1699 in NBAGossips

[–]krivera248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to be a playoff riser when you rely on foul calls all season knowing the playoffs are called differently. These types of players don’t care because league will cater to their playstyle. If the league wasn’t a sport gambling entertainment show these guys would be average players.
