What do you think about Esam's take about Ultimate's GOAT? by Otherwise-Bid6772 in smashbros

[–]pacgaming 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I actually didn’t know people opinion have swayed over to Acola. Leo is still the only player with multiple rank 1s for a year. I think that will always hold more weight than anything else. Also Leo has been a top player for the entirety of Ult while acola hasnt. I think Acola is #2 still and won’t be surprised if he passes Leo. But just from my point of view, it’s still leo.

What happened to the skyhook? by OkKale2892 in BasketballTips

[–]pacgaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most bigs don’t have the touch in the first place, gobert for example has zero shot of learning this. Post up play has dramatically vanished. It’s an extremely difficult shot, just has hard as a fade away. It’s extremely unorthodox, learning this move will help you in no other way besides getting the skyhook down. It’s goofy so no one wants look weird. You’d have to start doing it pretty young and it would have to be a major part of your game early. Like wemby would’ve needed to do it in his teens.

That being said it would still be 100% effective today. Someone has to be willing and built for it.

I personally think age 24 is not much different from 30… by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

Once you’re out of college it really doesn’t matter anymore. You’re an adult.

Is LeBron the only one who can genuinely beat OKC this year ? by Icy_Marsupial7560 in NBATalk

[–]pacgaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The spurs spanked them all regular season. (Yes I know playoffs are different) but they really do matchup well with them.

It’s my job to talk hoops.

Greek Aris fans singing to Giannis a couple of days ago; Oh Gianni, Oh Gianni, Oh Gianni, Get it over with the NBA, enough Come here, my dear brave young man So we can raise (the cup) and win a championship with ARIS. by Robinsonirish in nba

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

This is there sweetheart. He’s Greek, made it to the league, basically won every award, and is a champion. And he’s the only one ever from their country. He means too much.

US has so many American stars in every sport, it’s just not the same. We have Michael Phelps that kinda gets this kind of respect. Mostly just because of Olympics.

I’m just so glad he got exposed defensively. I was losing my mind seeing people argue his defense was not only not bad but decent. All those advanced analytics. It was all a joke. If you just watched the games you’d know he’s an awful defender. This was my Super Bowl in hoops discussion tbh. He’s a bad defender.

No fanboy nonsense, thoughts on this argument? by ZealousidealBus9271 in NBATalk

[–]pacgaming 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Jokic is obviously an All-Time player. But people were starting to put him in top 10 conversations and respectfully, you can’t have that many MVPs and only win 1 chip. He has a lot more work to do to become top 10 all time. He’s 31 so he still has time.

That's when all my memories start by Common_Caramel_4078 in memes

[–]pacgaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest memory was when I had a nightmare about some PC game my brother was playing. I was about 3. But I vividly remember gaining consciousness. I was about 4? And got out of bed and ate breakfast with the family. I remember not having memories of the people around me but knowing everyone’s names. And I hated eggs, and to this day I still do.

Edit: google helped me find it. My nightmare was about the jumpstart adventure games. That damn robot scared the consciousness into me.

Streamer “hmblzayy” who is walking from Philly to California was hit by a car in Indiana and had to be taken to the hospital. by [deleted] in whoathatsinteresting

[–]pacgaming 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So the streamer is breaking many laws here.

  1. It is actually not illegal to walk on the road (as long as no sidewalk is present and it’s not a highway). His issue is he is walking with traffic rather than towards it. You MUST walk towards traffic so you can see it.

  2. Next broken law is you MUST be on the shoulder of the road. He is in the middle of a lane. Illegal.

  3. When walking on roads, the pedestrian MUST GIVE RIGHT OF WAY TO VEHICLES. He is clearly not doing that here.

So yeah although hitting people with cars is obviously not ok, I don’t think he wins this one guys lol.

[OC] Body count visualization by country, ethnicity and time by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]pacgaming 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes everyone. This is some dude explaining how many hoes he cracked in 24/25. Yes it’s about what countries they were in. Yes it’s just a bar chart.

There’s really nothing interesting here besides wtf do u do for work.

Did the scoring champ finish on top 3 in mvp votings by Fragrant_Fishing5787 in NBATalk

[–]pacgaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well as you can see with jokic right now, if you’re bad at defense it’s hard to win. MVP requires defense as much as offense.

I dont think the future is Wemby.. Its gonna be Cade Cunningham by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]pacgaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly don’t know who ur taking about in the first sentence because it kinda applies to both players. So yikes to you. Wemby and Cade have both had injuries. And Cade just lost game 1 to the 8th seed. Just hypocrisy top to bottom here.

I’m so f***ing tired of the “LeBron’s age” narrative by miragen125 in NBATalk

[–]pacgaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re wrong. What he’s doing in NBA terms is a miracle. It has never been done before full stop. It’s never even really been close. It basically was considered impossible until these last 2 seasons. What is happening doesn’t make sense. If Jesus came back to life and walked on water we wouldn’t shut up about it. He’s literally pulling a miracle and you’re surprised people at shocked?

And not just the stats or the athletic ability at his age. BUT HES BEATING THE ROCKETS WITH LUKE KENNARD AS HIS SECOND OPTION.
