2021 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD: Media Day...SHENANIGANS

[thekillerj23]

Ppl actually have Kobe or Duncan over Bron is wild to me. Is it cause they got 5 rings or just general hate for Bron, the way he acts, his social media, etc?

Bron is gonna end up playing 20 plus seasons like both of them and was way more domiant in his later seasons than both. Has More finals Mvps than both, at worst will be 2nd all time leading scorer, 10k Ast, possibly 10K boards, every playoff record known to man.

He already top 2 but if ya wanna say Top 3 after Kareem go for it. Kareem - majority of us never seen play & Even MJ, at best lot of us on NT were 10-12 years old when MJ won his last chip.

KAT needs structure. That’s been a known thing since he was at UK. All the talent in the world, and I’ll always root for him.

With that said, you can probably make a argument for Kobe or Duncan. I know Duncan barely cracks most top 10 lists, so I'm not going to argue for him being top 3.

Ya. In what sense specifically, like himself, people around him, teammates, basketball-related?

O thread is back on track in hear sweating LeBron, would much rather go back to the Dell Curry jokes.

Miss me with the LeBron lovefest, media does enough of that for me.

You’d be surprised how many pure hoopers in the league know their TS%.

it’s ok to like analytics. It’s also ok not to. Dudes just be arguing for the sake of arguing

Facts. We see KD, Bron, Cp3 and many other hyper aware stars not shoot end of quarter heaves and other ****.

right. You think KD and his burners aren’t throwing around analytics?

Plus those non max guys often have advanced numbers incentives in their contract.

 

[antidope]

TS and EFG are Not good examples of that anyways they're simple and easily digestable.

It’s not hate for Bron. It’s love for Kobe that has people put him higher than he probably belongs. As far as Duncan, I don’t see many putting Duncan over Bron.

For Kareem it’s just the length of his reign and the sum of his achievements, similar to Bron. For Jordan it’s both his achievements and the pure level of his dominance that make him #1. Bron is still behind Jordan in achievements but he’ll simply never catch up in dominance, it’s too late.

10 Things The Dreamcast Did That Were Way Ahead Of Its Time

The Dreamcast may not have had a lot of success in comparison to other consoles, but in many ways, it was ahead of its time.

Obv PS came out months later with features being better but dreamcast was a console if its own.. short lived but a fun one

Nah.

I'm specifically asking what was so ahead of it's time and/or convenient about being able to make subs on the VMU in NBA 2K.

How was that any better/more efficient than the "On the Fly" subs tool that we have had since 2K9. At least with OTF , wr don't have to take our eyes off the screen.

Legit asking.
Not arguing.

That's nine years ahead the fact u can even compare it speaks to the innovation

 

[xxpizzo]

in 2001 it was ahead if its time compared to what else was out in the world by just being able to do it from a controller screen noone else gave you that option

obv now we in 2021 with better technology.. at the time in 2001 nothing came close
