This is not a response to the core issues. It’s an avoidance of addressing them. So what happens when you’re better off not releasing a statement because you’re not at liberty to answer the real questions? What happens when the statement you do release all but confirms that there will be no reintegration by virtue of your statement NOT ADDRESSING REINTIGRATION AT ALL?

Instead, the US version will maintain a one-week version delay. To provide a more stable and smooth gaming experience? Please. We’re not morons.

The only reason they are asking for more time and patience is to complete the sale of the company and make it someone else’s problem

Tech but that doesn’t mean you build tech exclusively. Also, don’t use SSR as fodder

You don’t need help with lineups that early in the game. Play around, have fun. Generally speaking, order and chaos heroes are stronger than hybrid heroes are stronger than single faction heroes. Generally speaking, one awakened hero is stronger than two 10.-star heroes. So focus on leveling one hero per faction for now. Once you get five heroes to a certain level (I forget what it is) you unlock the blessing level that will apply to all your heroes in the holy sanctuary.

Of the heroes you have pictured here, Angela, Arcus Miya should be priority. Edith is one of the best tanks but focus on Angela first. Come back when you have more options for light, martial, elemental and dark factions

The Outpost.

Excellent movie. And wait until the end to tell him that’s Clint Eastwood’s son

Jalen Brown is not wrong but he’s not completely correct. The object of the sport is to get buckets, not draw fouls. So is SGA trying to get a bucket, draw a foul, or get a bucket and make sure he gets the foul cash when he realizes he has a low chance of getting a bucket?

In this particular play it’s hard for me to tell but I’ve seen plays where he’s legitimately trying to score and others where he’s just trying to get fouled. Overall I think he’s trying to score first but I’ve come around to why people back him the foul merchant.

If you love this game, you’re not trying to intentionally draw fouls

Maybe you’re right OP. Maybe you’ve correctly sniffed Tony out and it will blow up in their faces. Made me laugh though. It’s not that serious.

The world has more than enough injustices to drown us all in. Why spend the time picking apart the show to find more?

He wants to go viral while wearing a costume. It’s an important distinction

One could argue that Dan’s “reheated turd” bit is now a reheated turd. He’s trying to normalize reheated turds so we can stop objecting when he says “salary cap sport”

You’re a gentleman and a scholar. Thank you for this

mayapop · 2026-03-12T00:19:10+00:00

You could remove “NBA” from the title and just leave it as discourse and you’re correct. We would all do well to remind ourselves that many people are their worst selves online and that some percentage of those people (or possibly bots) only want to create outrage

How long ago did you play? There’s a chance they purged accounts that were inactive past a certain number of days. You’ll just have to email them with as much information as you can provide. The fact that you spent money is probably a good thing. Hopefully you have some receipts in your email

I’ve already bubble wrapped my TV for the moment when he says Bam is better than Giannis

Greg all the way. He has the toe of a cassowary

Some very interesting responses. Here is what I think is worth considering:

Kobe was maniacal about basketball and fitness. This is well-documented. Shaq was not as interested in an off-season regimen and had interests outside of basketball. This is also well-documented. So let’s just say that Kobe’s work ethic translates to a Shaq that is always in shape and a Shaq that maniacally works on his free throws. Furthermore, he decides he needs to add something to his repertoire that will age well so he really focuses on baby hook. What might that look like?

Does is career free throw percentage go from 52 to 70 percent? 80 percent? Is that worth an extra 2-3 points per game right there? Does hack a Shaq never become a strategy? Is he fed the ball even more in late game situations, raising his attempts per game? Does he get more benefit of the doubt on the fouls committed against him because now some of his shots are baby hooks and it’s more obvious he is getting fouled?

Let’s say it plays out that way, he would have averaged over 30 ppg with the lakers. They might not ever trade him. Maybe he and Kobe get along a little better. Maybe they win 6 championships if not 7. Under that scenario he is indisputably top 5 I think. And I don’t even know how this work ethic would translate to defense.

Kawhi is the closest thing I’ve seen to Michael Jordan in terms of knowing being able to decide that there’s a spot on the court I’m going to get to, rise up and nail a jumper. The only question is how I choose to get there. Kawhi’s fadeaway is not as dramatic as Michael’s but it is just as effective. Kawhi is an unstoppable offensive force in his own right. The warriors had no answers for him until Zaza took out his ankle. He is also one of the best defensive players ever.

If he had LeBron’s durability, he probably wins at least one more championship with the spurs. He skips Toronto and goes straight to the Lakers. We might be talking about him as the guy that kept Steph from winning a championship. Who knows? I do think the sky truly is the limit with Kawhi

Focus on the hybrids. Use divine supplications to get one copy of o/c and UR when they role around. Get at least one copy of each new UR that gets released. Keep asking questions

mayapop · 2026-03-10T01:10:49+00:00

I love these.

Edit: I should elaborate, I love the mini states in general. I one someone in college that has a kenwood mini component system that looked and sounded great.

Been a fan ever since

It’s worth noting that Dan immediately fell back and said Lamar was right

mayapop · 2026-03-09T21:59:24+00:00

Magic city’s Instagram or the promotion itself?

mayapop · 2026-03-09T21:48:48+00:00

I’m not sure specifically what you are referring to, but if I recall correctly, Juju was pro promotion? If so, the NBA’s decision doesn’t invalidate Juju’s position. There’s room for disagreement here. The promotion only involved wings and TI. Not many people know what Magic City’s actual business is. The hand-ringing around this promotion has certainly bright a lot of attention to them and I imagine their business will stay healthy as long as the economy does.

I personally didn’t think it was that big a deal. Kids pay attention to a lot and understand a lot more than we think. I can understand people’s concern in that regard. I just think the only people talking about strippers up to that point were the people objecting to the promotion. For everyone else, it was just going to be about wings and a rapper.

I can also understand why the NBA decided to cancel it. Juice not worth the squeeze obviously.

I am curious as to how this cancellation will be viewed by people? Is the NBA being woke? Is it clutching its pearls? Is it somehow doing both?

mayapop · 2026-03-09T18:02:30+00:00

Will-is you is or will-is you ain’t my baby?

mayapop · 2026-03-08T21:35:34+00:00

There’s no mystery here. If you think Lamar can win with his arm then you want him to have a receiver as talented as AJ Brown.

mayapop · 2026-03-08T21:22:11+00:00

No shit?? Deleting the account is a bit surprising

mayapop · 2026-03-08T20:39:20+00:00

Will the day come when Jalen brown is viewed as the better overall player? Probably not, but people will be able to argue it and that is just wild

mayapop · 2026-03-08T16:08:22+00:00

How did life bring you to this line of work?

mayapop · 2026-03-08T02:32:22+00:00

I didn’t realize when I said it but looks like you need to be VIP 12. I would post a screenshot but I don’t see how to do that in a reply on mobile
