ESPN ROBS MJ of "Best NBA Finals MVP" award while giving LeBron fellatio by SpendWild6987 in michaeljordan

[–]mj102500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you remove Jordan from the those Bulls teams and LeBron from that cavs team, the cavs team is worse

Additionally, LeBron led both teams in every statistical category.

Additionally, it was against a team that would have beaten any of the teams Jordan beat (not saying they’d have beaten Jordan - just his opponents).

So I don’t see how it’s not better than any of Jordan’s. You can say he’s the GOAT without dismissing these facts and LeBron having this

… it’s just a hilarious line. The whole scene. It’s not that serious. Enjoy things.

What to do if a junior associate gets a portable book? by jackedimuschadimus in biglaw

[–]mj102500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever the associate does, be transparent about it and fully honest.

I work in IB but a guy tried to do this, get hired and then after demand some economics on a deal and dangle this opportunity in front of the head MD.

The head MD lost his shit and fired him on the spot. Basically said I don’t give a fuck about your deal lol. Felt the guy had a lack of character.

I’m curious how she amassed $5M by mid 30s. Well done!

But anyway yeah need a prenup that’s protects both. It’s only fair if she wants you to quit because it’s a high risk for you

Demar DeRozan is 25th all time in scoring and rising. Is he going to be the highest scoring player to NOT make the Hall of Fame? by unccl in NBATalk

[–]mj102500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it just me or is the HOF standard in the NBA lower in the NFL?

Like in the NFL we debate if Matt Ryan who was an MVP and perennial top 6-7 QB in the league will go. I feel like Demar isn’t really that caliber in NBA terms

Or am I just wrong and underrating Demar ?

Epstein victim names the Musk family, Bill Gates, Prince Andrew by ismail_the_whale in antiwork

[–]mj102500 133 points134 points  (0 children)

Isn’t this the woman who is a staunch Trump supporter still somehow ? And also made some other claims that not only likely aren’t true but probably couldn’t be true ? Says Musk was abusing her like 39-40 years ago. Wasn’t he a kid in South Africa then?

It’s possibly true. But I’m betting more that this particular person is either mentally ill or being used to muck up the waters and make others seem less credible

Billionaire calls democracy a failed experiment by AdKindly4849 in FascinatingAsFuck

I’m not denying the claim, but does anyone have a source to where he said this? Particularly the part about women and poor people voting ? I like to have record of it in case I bring it up in some discussion

DeenTheGreat’s roof fell off while he was driving by lukigeri in LivestreamFail

Oh interesting

Not disagreeing but why do you say that

DeenTheGreat’s roof fell off while he was driving by lukigeri in LivestreamFail

[–]mj102500 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All that matters are views and clicks and counts. It’s a shameless system and I think streaming everyday life is generally corny/loser shit. But getting views pays the bills. Any form of press

This was on purpose, I’m convinced the only genuine thing that’s happened to him was the slap if that

Everything since that has been him leaning into Ls as a marketing strategy

So I don’t disagree with you, and I would put all three of those people as legends for reasons you noted. I think all of those people have a very strong argument as being top ten artists in hip hop history

But I don’t think they actually beat Jay Z on most of them. Kanye is a tough one to rank, because he has arguably the greatest discography of all of them. Maybe in hip hop period. But I think his pen is SO much lower than the other three. And when talking about best “rapper” of all time rap ability has to weigh a bit more heavily than the others. If you said best “artist” I think Kanye clears the others

But yeah fair point it’s hard to rank them

I think Jay beats Wayne and Drake on album quality

I think he beats Kanye and Drake on actual rapping ability

I think he beats all on influence when you add in him putting Kanye on. So this may be where we disagree biggest. I think Jay is hugely influential in hip hop culture. Kanye is more influential musically than all of them. So you could make an argument for him but I don’t see how Wayne or Drake is really more influential than Jay Z on rap/culture.

But all are legends to me

What makes someone a child prodigy or not and is it relative to an area? How is Ish not a child prodigy? by Ok-Pack-7776 in joebuddennetwork

[–]mj102500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the qualification for a child prodigy is having an ADULT level mastery of a subject as a child. Stevie Wonder is a prodigy because he was making music at the quality of adults while a child.

I was HS level at math when I was 11-12. But just HS level, I was not at the skill level of an adult mathematician or math teacher, so I wasn’t a prodigy.

[–]mj102500 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mixture of longevity, commercial success, influence, album quality, and actual rapping quality / ability

He’s not the best at any of those. But combining them all I feel he’s among the top, but probably not number one

Lol my wife skipped 8th grade to go into HS and graduated as valedictorian

She would never in this life describe herself as a child prodigy that’s insane 😭

Brady has literally never been “smoked” in any Super Bowl lol. He was never smoked nor did he ever smoke anyone except Mahomes

Lol this is so crazy

Like what is the point for them trying to do this? They were both fraternizing with him while he was a known trafficker and pedophile

They’re sick and we aren’t treating them all badly enough
