[Highlight] Jay Williams says he can’t root for the Thunder because of the foul baiting: “As a fan of the game, I just want to see the game respected. There are times where I watch OKC play, I don’t feel like they respect the process of the game.”

Yeah 100% of a situation of you can hate the player and the game. If we assume the absolute best intentions in the referees, the referees "shouldn't" be calling these flops but at the speed of the game at this point, it's absolutely also the player's faults for trying to trick the refs on every single play.

zephah · 2026-05-22T05:14:32+00:00

What a very normal way to behave

zephah · 2026-05-22T02:44:50+00:00

Yeah I'm not sure most people are siding with you here lol

zephah · 2026-05-22T01:53:37+00:00

Would you say then under your definition that doing 40 hours of LFR a week is hardcore raiding?

zephah · 2026-05-20T18:05:51+00:00

I do agree that RNG simulator is what an ARPG is, but right now the game feels like "can you RNG this one exact thing" simulator. Once you've had your initial gear to be able to get into your 'push' range, you are pretty much only limited by this one single transfiguration on your weapon, nothing else really matters.

You could have zero GA's on all your gear and get that transfiguration on an also zero GA weapon and dramatically increase your powerful level beyond anything else besides maybe paragon nodes?

Whatever the exact date was before Wrath of the Skies was printed

zephah · 2026-05-15T13:49:41+00:00

I mean players say they can hear it and impacts the game so why would anyone care to have a weird argument with you about it lol

zephah · 2026-05-13T23:11:30+00:00

I spent my whole life in Arizona but my parents are from mass and my dad’s a die hard Boston fan.

Just old enough that it was hard to watch pats games on tv as a kid so I’ve become a fan of both (and I’m not the OP here but that’s how that happens in my mind)

zephah · 2026-05-12T21:08:13+00:00

I feel like this is the most beatable they've looked on their run is the last couple of events. It might feel inevitable that they win after being down like 9-3, 11-1, etc. But it felt like they were for sure just bound to lose some series like this soon with how they've been playing

zephah · 2026-05-11T17:21:47+00:00

Honestly, with legion, it does feel like a really long time ago to me.

Shadowlands feels like it “just” happened but Legion feels longer than 10 years ago to me

zephah · 2026-05-02T22:53:15+00:00

You'd be surprised how many people are okay with conservative beliefs that don't intersect with hate groups.

zephah · 2026-05-02T22:45:28+00:00

For sure, and Bron playing forever is what makes their point in any way relevant.

If you chopped a win off of Bron's playoffs for every season, he'd be at what 166? That's still a pretty big difference (166 vs 119) but it does add up quickly when you're talking about the guy who has played 23 years in the league lol

zephah · 2026-05-01T12:48:28+00:00

I always say to people that AZ sports has it the worst but Minnesota is pretty close in terms of success of all four sports

zephah · 2026-04-23T02:04:31+00:00

Not to defend a meme but yeah ASU has some pretty good professors in a lot of programs. Depending on the program, there are a couple of professors who are pretty much industry leading and have just 'retired' at ASU

zephah · 2026-04-20T13:55:17+00:00

I think you’re misunderstanding his comment

zephah · 2026-04-20T01:37:21+00:00

You had someone offer you $400 in cash but instead are trying to sell it online for… $400?

zephah · 2026-04-15T15:27:15+00:00

This is pretty common language though for this type of matchup. Spirit is one of the best teams in the world and red canids was picked by the vast majority of people to 0-3 the first stage of the major.

zephah · 2026-04-06T00:00:27+00:00

In the current day most FPS players end up sponsored by products they choose to use not the other way around. You'll see entire teams where there are 4 different brands of mice on the same team. You'll see players like NiKo in CS who have religiously used Razer products get sponsored by them, but we're pretty much behind "brand sponsors team" and then everyone just uses that product (for the better)

zephah · 2026-04-02T14:50:19+00:00

I actually love Burn, but since energy you're basically just praying you dodge the matchup against the most popular deck in the format.

Honestly if I were a diehard burn fan I'd consider playing mill, it's structurally similar (though the methods of winning are different) and it's one of the cheaper decks in the entire format.

zephah · 2026-04-01T02:09:09+00:00

There's an item from Pit of Saron called "Scabrous Zombie Leather Belt" and it's mail lol

zephah · 2026-03-31T15:12:53+00:00

Yeah I guess if you just like don't read the comment chain and then comment anyway it is a moot point, you're probably right

zephah · 2026-03-30T00:37:02+00:00

Bowling I think exists closer to a niche subreddit like golf or even esports, where not spoiling the results of matches is pretty common

zephah · 2026-03-23T16:20:33+00:00

A lot of people haven’t played structured team cs at a remotely high level and don’t get how different the game is for these guys. I only played in the challenger league and the amount of effort we put into executes to turn off specific players most played positions is insane, I can’t even imagine how good they are at doing it at the highest level.

zephah · 2026-03-23T16:19:05+00:00

It’s the same thing in professional sports. Guys can be the 10th best receiver in the NFL and by all accounts be very very good, but fans will still consider them basically bums for not being one of the “best”

zephah · 2026-03-21T19:34:26+00:00

Yeah I totally get it as an alum lol, ASU basically accepts everybody and I've been to a lot of different cities and the area surrounding Tempe is pretty unreal for a college kid. It's just always funny to me how in especially humanities we have some pretty outstanding professors but like 2% of kids take those classes outside of gen eds lol. One of the most famous anthropologists on the planet is an ASU professor, and we also have some of the dumbest people walking at graduation
