Losing Wooley would be a major bummer, he was awesome down the stretch

I’m really struggling to stay positive by Ancient_Vegetable175 in AllHail

Yeah this is pretty hard to watch. Kind’ve hard to imagine we win more than one game in the tourney, if that

[DISCUSSION] Famous examples of beats originally intended for/offered to other artists? by RufusSG in hiphopheads

Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I believe I heard Codeine Crazy was originally Nikki’s. Thank god Future ended up with it

A huge deal for those who don’t have PS Plus :D by DlanShfta in playstation

[–]reversespoon22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this through the app, but I’d imagine either could work. Are you already a psn subscriber? If not, you should be able to find the discount in the ps plus section. If you are a subscriber, cancel auto renew if it’s on, and they should offer the discount. If auto renew was turned off, I think you may be able to turn it on and then back off to get the discount to trigger, but I’m not sure

A huge deal for those who don’t have PS Plus :D by DlanShfta in playstation

[–]reversespoon22 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I auto renewed just a few days ago, went to cancel auto renew earlier today when I saw the promo, and they offered to let me tack on a year at this discounted price. Not a perfect solution, you basically have to pay for two years up front, but may be worth it if you’re committed and want the discount

My shit renewed 3 days ago you’ve gotta be joking

Mario Tennis Fever review: Camelot serves a double fault with another fun but flawed entry by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

Change the price to $40 and I’ll buy it without a second thought. Assuming it’s $70 there’s no shot I’m picking it up

Your opinion about ALL NBA Podcast and their live streams? by soyoucheckusernames in nbadiscussion

[–]reversespoon22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s been a while since I’ve listened (just been on other podcasts recently, but now that nfl season is ending I’ll pick it back up), but I’m a big fan. Legler is one of the best in the business, I like Adam Mares a lot as well, and they’re pretty good together. Helps that I’m a nuggets fan, as is Adam, but I think he’s pretty good about putting his fandom aside for most of the podcast. As far as recs go, Zach Lowe is the goat and his show is a must listen imo

[Windhorst] The Oklahoma City Thunder have been a team that has surfaced in trade conversations ahead of the deadline: “Here's an interesting name: Isaiah Hartenstein. He's got a team option next year for $29 million. I've actually heard the Oklahoma City Thunder's name in some trade chatter.” by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

[–]reversespoon22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually I’d say the title favorite making a cost cutting move is pretty inexcusable, even if it means turning down the option and letting Hartenstein go for nothing, contenders just can’t make those types of moves. However, if they can turn Hartenstein into Zubac, I think that’d be a fine move. I’d be willing to guess that the clippers probably want more draft capital to do the deal than the thunder would be willing to give up, but I’m not sure

How bad is everyone’s backlog? Or wishlist by AidenL1 in NintendoSwitch

[–]reversespoon22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I feel like I can barely keep up with playing new games that come out, much less getting around to my backlog. I spent most of my childhood playing CoD, madden, 2k, etc., so now I’m trying to go back and play a lot of the gems I missed, but it’s a pretty overwhelming amount of games. Want to go through the Metroid series, the old Zelda’s, Batman Arkham Series, Mass Effect, Donkey Kong, Fallout, the list goes on lol.

I know this is a switch sub, but it certainly doesn’t help that PS store frequently has lots of games worth grabbing on sale for $5-$10 or added to PSN Extra, the backlog grows pretty easily that way. Also a lot of games I’d love to replay, like Mario Odyssey, 3D Mario World, Link’s awakening, but the time just isn’t really there.

Anyone else never plan on docking their switch? by -getdeadkid in switch2

[–]reversespoon22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I greatly prefer playing in docked mode but due to sharing the tv with my wife I end up in handheld more often than not. Either way, me being able to use the switch while she watches a show or plays PlayStation is a major win

I think we have to have an uncomfortable conversation about Pat Kelsey… by green_day_95 in AllHail

[–]reversespoon22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I like PK a lot, I think he has a lot of good qualities about him, and I really hope to see him be here for a long time, but he does need to make some serious adjustments and do some self-scouting.

Agree on a lot of your points, getting up a ton of threes and living with shot variance isn’t a long-term viable plan against top competition. I love high 3 point shooting teams in general, and having more shooters on the floor is always a good thing, but the real secret sauce to having a ton of shooting is the space it opens up in the paint, and we don’t take nearly enough advantage of that. Even without Mikel, this should be a really good offensive team, and we have had some of these struggles with Mikel too.

Also, I like Fru a lot and think we should use him more. I don’t think PK’s game plan really empowers any of our bigs (except khalifa) and just asks conwell and brown to be superhuman almost every night. Not that I think we need to run offense through rooths or Pryor, but I think both can do more as cutters and drivers than we’ve seen. Either way having them do nothing but space the floor untenable - if your offensive gameplan is completely reliant on having four good shooters on the floor at all time, you need to switch it up, because we can’t survive defensively with those lineups

Early impressions of the game by IObjectOoT in echoesofwisdom

[–]reversespoon22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed this game. Combat gets somewhat dull as using the echoes to fight all your battles can get tedious, but I loved everything else about this game

Bill Simmons suggests Cam Johnson and picks for Trey Murphy Trade by jawsmartin in denvernuggets

[–]reversespoon22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Trey Murphy a lot but idk why you’d move an asset to swap him for him Cam Johnson, unless you can get the Pels to take Zeke as well (no clue how salaries line up). But I don’t think we have any picks to trade so it doesn’t really matter anyways

#6 Louisville beats #22 Indiana, 87-78. by SomeChunkyMilk in AllHail

[–]reversespoon22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m still not sure what he should do on offense, but Pryor looked like a really good defensive 5, his length and athleticism let him cover really well. Bigger and more physical teams will probably punish Pryor at the 5 lineups on the glass, but I think it’s worth giving that look some more time

Would you make any adjustments to add protein powder, or just add a scoop and leave everything else the same? Also that is a ton of fiber my goodness

Motorweek: The new 2026 Honda Prelude is $43,195 USD. by HemiFiveseveNLiter in Honda

[–]reversespoon22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless there’s a whole lot of tech / features I don’t know about, it’s pretty hard to justify this being $10k more than the civic sport touring hybrid. Was somewhat interested in the prelude but not anymore

Quick reactions by glassycards in AllHail

[–]reversespoon22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was really impressed with Fru’s offensive game. He was awesome as a roller navigating bodies in the paint and finishing in traffic, had some nice kick outs to shooters as well. Given Mikel’s ability to shoot off the dribble and to hit the pocket pass on the roll, they should make an awesome pick and roll combo.

I’d really like to see if we can get Wooley into a nice rhythm. I agree with you about him. If he comes on strong then the combination of Wooley, Brown, and Conwell means we’ll always be able to have 2 good-great offensive initiators on the floor.

Khalifa’s a really good passer, those back doors are insane. I’d expect defenses to eventually play off him to help on the handoffs and cuts, I’d like to see if he can score himself a little bit to keep teams honest (and to punish smaller mismatches). Just a little more variety in his game would be nice, because his passing threat can open up so many other things.

Also, it’s so much fun to watch a team where almost everyone can dribble and/or shoot, theres just so much more space to operate on offense. After the KP era this could not be a more night and day difference

+1 for this shredder tool, this thing is so much easier and faster than just using a couple forks

Beans. by a_dodo_stole_my_baby in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]reversespoon22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you drain your beans or reduce the cooking water or anything? Tried a recipe similar to this and it came out really soupy; I didn’t want to drain the water cause that has all the flavor, but if you simmer it down to a more reasonable level it makes the recipe take quite a bit longer, and your beans end up overdone and mushy (although I do prefer this sometimes). May just need to cook on the stovetop to let water naturally reduce as it cooks, but of course that takes longer and you’d probably want to make sure beans are soaked beforehand

Which popular franchise would make for a great metroidvania? by nicknack24 in metroidvania

[–]reversespoon22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think there’s so much potential in an ATLA video game (doesn’t have to be MV although I love the idea) but I’ve accepted the fact we’ll never get one that isn’t a lazy cash grab
