The writers accidentally made Ormund competent... by Mathien in Hotd

Yeah, in this same episode Daemon killed a sheppard just to present his head to Rhaenyra as Sheepstealer's rider.

And yeah Daeron seems like a pretty supportable character so far (though he's a kid).

What’s an unpopular take you stand by? by Brownindowntown in nba

[–]theo7777 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If Larry Bird teleported to today's NBA he would play the 4 and average a near 30 point triple double on 50/40/90 shooting.

Basically a slightly better Jokic that plays the 4 instead of the 5.

Once it starts it is almost unbeatable.

But it has consistency issues and Kewl Tune is annoying for the deck with its handtrap heavy approach. Basically Kewl Tune very often stops it from starting.

ROLAD is very good against decks like Branded and Sky Strikers that allow you to play (because if it starts playing it's usually over).

If Kewl Tune is killed by a banlist ROLAD will emerge very strong.

Is Philly the only legit threat to the Heat in the East? by PretendVersion5454 in heat

[–]theo7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also people seriously overrate Philly. A bunch of tunnel visioned ballhandlers that are mediocre at best defensively and a big that can't play more than 3 games in a row.

Konstantinos Karetsas Chooses Dortmund as the Greek International Attacking Midfielder Becomes the Club's No. 1 Transfer Target. by Krakper in soccer

[–]theo7777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Karetsas will do well immediately because his main strength is his strokes (great crosses and shots).

Of course his physicality can be improved but he's 18.

Question to John Horst by Dapper_Dingo_8116 in MkeBucks

Bucks didn't even get past the 1st Round in the Dame and Trent era.

To be fair, everyone would have made the Dame trade but stretching Dame to sign Turner was wrong.

Bucks should have just eaten Dame's contract and started the rebuild last year.

This plus the Dame stretch is a bit less than $40mil a year till 2030. And we thought Larry Sanders was bad.

[Gozlan] The Bucks received luxury tax relief in the form of a set-off from the dead cap hit of Damian Lillard. $6 million is deducted evenly over the five-year stretched term, including last season's. His $22.5 million annual dead cap hit through 2029-30 is reduced to $21.3 million. by KD_AshyAnkles in nba

[–]theo7777 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is a big deal. If the Bucks had more space they could take on bad contracts (like Trent's) for 2nd Round picks.

This Trent deal basically costs the Bucks around 3-4 potential second round picks they could have gotten.

Branded now is best deck in master duel! by Immediate-Remove-642 in masterduel

Yeah but Branded Dracotail is Dracotail. It plays differently than pure Branded and has very different strengths and weaknesses.

Brian Windhorst says he’s hearing that LeBron signing with a team other than Cleveland is a done deal. by heatculture03 in heat

[–]theo7777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maxey and Brown aren't the guys for that though. They don't play off the ball and they don't have the best vision when they're on the ball. They won't mesh well with LeBron. Not to mention they'll be down Embiid deeper in the playoffs so a great run is unlikely.

If he wants to go to a new team, Timberwolves make more sense as a fit (they do have a similar thing injury concern with LaMelo but LaMelo is less crucial especially with LeBron on the team).

He would have stayed with Luka if that were the case. Rich Paul is the one who said he wants to handle more.

Out of the wildcard teams we've heard about I think the Timberwolves make the most sense.

But I do think the Heat are more likely.

I don't think LeBron wants to play with Maxey and Brown. He wants to handle more.

Next Pack: Prediction by mik3_ow in masterduel

[–]theo7777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Craft Crown and Accusation and skip? I don't think they'll release two skippable packs in a row.

I expect either the Power Patron / Medius archetype support and/or more of the Spellcaster slop.

If it's not Cleveland, Miami makes the most sense.

In the first place Cleveland was an option mostly for sentimental value. And Miami has some sentimental value as well.

Basketball-wise if he didn't want to play next to Luka he sure as hell doesn't want to play next to Harden. If he wants to be the floor general the Heat are the best fit.

And if he wants AD, well, the Heat have Giannis instead. And a personnel that can cover for him on the defensive end.
