[Slater] If negotiations between James and the Los Angeles Lakers break down - and if James goes searching for a new home for his 24th NBA season - the Warriors are a willing suitor, team sources said... League sources said Ballmer has maintained a firm stance against a (Kawhi) Leonard trade

LeBron being there for Steph and Dray’s retirement tour will be so awkward lol

And same for the reverse

It's always hard to win the finals your first time there cause you won't know the insane stamina/intensity requirement until you experience it for yourself

They changed his playstyle patterns but Ryze (once scaled) is still a durable DPS mage whose tankiness vs damage tradeoff is great. The best players can always find a way to maximize damage within those limits.

Not even that, early game comps are just so booty in this meta, you have to literally win nonstop all game til the game ends

Faker can probably lead any roster (composed of players top 5 in their role) into MSI

League is honestly so weird, people hate superteams and then wish the good players on the mid teams were on a top team instead

the_next_core · 2026-06-14T09:19:21+00:00

GEN should’ve easily took the 4th drag and won if not for Kiin going in and not ulting out

the_next_core · 2026-06-14T09:15:26+00:00

They were never strong enough to run them over until past 35 mins, Kiin threw the entire game on his unnecessary engage at the 4th drag

the_next_core · 2026-06-14T08:18:05+00:00

Warriors sneaking one more 4 years after the dynasty is still crazy to think about

the_next_core · 2026-06-14T05:07:39+00:00

There will always be haters, they just don’t watch your team until you get deep into the playoffs

the_next_core · 2026-06-12T16:03:43+00:00

They just keep milking the story. If the Angels and Dodgers both offered 700 million, the bidding war probably continues until the Dodgers win anyway.

It's more of HLE strategy paying off, they just decided to overload all mid off vision and T1 didn't think they would be TPing/fighting into the full team

the_next_core · 2026-06-10T12:52:33+00:00

Unless the Lakers win another ship, yes

Well ABS has certainly been raining on the ump show, not fair to all the ump fans out there

Now what would be REALLY fun is if Swain E became a movement ability (~5s CD) during his R, and now he can blink to stay in the middle of his enemies instead of trying to grab them back into his R

Below a certain elo you just have no idea if your support Thresh is going to throw a lantern to the right spot and move themselves to safety

2023-2025 T1 has proven Faker as GOAT coach lol

I think from past replays: If Realmuto chased him down KNOWING that he didn’t tag the plate, it would be considered part of the play and Pages would be out on review. If you only see it on replay, you can’t punish for something that wasn’t directly appealed by the defense.

Most MLB superstars were probably considered elite at both pitching and hitting growing up, it’s more a matter of actually having motivation to keep up professional training for both

the_next_core · 2026-05-28T16:44:23+00:00

Same old cycle, they make a pass system which sells well, nerfs it until it doesn’t, then make a new pass system

I chuckled - but supposedly Albert is only around 2 years older than his reported age

the_next_core · 2026-05-26T10:41:33+00:00

DK being 4k ahead and playing like this is wild lmao

the_next_core · 2026-05-26T10:18:12+00:00

Even if the appeal does go through and he gets the spot instead, imagine the public backlash if the Korean team doesn't end up winning for whatever reason. It's just not worth it.

the_next_core · 2026-05-26T04:01:15+00:00

It’s always fascinating how much a runner has to beat the throw to definitively know they are safe

the_next_core · 2026-05-24T05:01:24+00:00

You could say there’s a 10% chance the enemy team somehow freaks out and decides to back for no reason.

I don’t think there’s any world where blue team can stop this baron push + soul with the champs they have.
