    2018-2019 NBA Thread

    Eh. Lets remember, the last time something like this happened to the Pelicans it was Chris Paul. He wanted out, they weren't going to get much value back. In fact they got a complete shit sandwich, probably worse than what they will get back for AD. Eric Gordon, Chris Kaman, and Aminu. That...

    Dead until the Knicks win the lottery and trade Zion to them. That's NO's best hope to jumpstart things. Not like they've been particularly alive while AD has been there anyways.

    2018-2019 NBA Thread

    Kyrie wouldn't be part of the trade because NO knows that they're in the same situation with him as they are with AD, he wouldn't stay and becomes a FA even sooner. Brown, Hayward, Rozier is horrible value for AD. Brown's value is no longer that high. Decent player but the further he gets...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Return of discord?! I'm sure its not, but I've always thought a perma death TLP server would be super interesting. That's what I think of when they say "hardcore," but yeah they probably just mean relatively slower exp and standard rules.

    2018-2019 NBA Thread

    I really don't like CP3 and his antics, but lets not go grouping him with Melo somehow. At least CP3 plays his ass off and tries to help his team win whenever he's out there. He wants to win, very badly. He just can't stay healthy (yes, a bad signing for that reason). Melo doesn't give a...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    IW is more rewatchable for me than all of the above. Love everything about it. The tone, the good feels scenes, the bad feels scenes. The team vs. Thanos fight on Titan is also about my favorite from any superhero movie. This movie has everything. Ragnarok is very rewatchable too but I...

    The running joke is that net fusion is always a decade or two away, because there has always been somebody saying that pretty much since like the 50's. Would love to see it become a reality, but not going to hold out hope for seeing it soon. And IF it does become a reality, who knows how long...

    To some extent, which he should be cause he's playing a lot of minutes right now with some straight up D-leaguers out there. But we also don't win last night without Klay going off for 19 in the 4th q.

    2018-2019 NBA Thread

    Nahh, they were just in a rough spot with all the drama. The depth is looking pretty slim at times now, but they're still a top 4 team even without those two. Time to start cutting the Damian Jones charity minutes and give Bell more minutes instead. Klay and Durant both forgot how to shoot...

    College Basketball 2018-2019: Duke > Cavs?

    He and Zion both look legit as fuck. I'd been wondering why Duke wasn't ranked #1 when the consensus is that they have 3 of the top 4 players in the draft next year including the undisputed top pick. Don't think its ever happened. Closest thing you can remember to that is when AD and MKG went...

    Omg Maximus turned into Proximo after he died?! Or did they like merge together in an arena in the afterlife in some DBZ sort of way? Maximo Proximus Gladiator is pretty much my all-time favorite movie, but F this. Unless they start this out right where Gladiator left off, and as they're...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    What has Naomi Watts been in lately though? I mean she still gets steady work, but as the lead lady in something memorable? If its a good show I don't see why she wouldn't consider signing on long term. Especially with all the hype and money that will be there for something GoT related.

    Well it definitely hasn't been 2 years because its been almost 2 years now since their first stream with Cohh Carnage. We can safely say at least 3. That's the thing - that first stream actually looked decent, they showed off the icy vertical dungeon for the first time, and it was like wow...

    2018-2019 NBA Thread

    I'm mixed on that idea. Its hard to believe after all the flack he's gotten for joining the Warriors, that he'd want to go join the Lebron in LA where he'd probably keep getting flack for joining up with the other top player in the league on a team stacked with young up and coming talent. Why...

    Civilization VI

    I bought 5 but didn't play it a ton, largely because the AI issues don't give nearly as much of a feeling of danger. Did not yet buy Civ 6 since they kept 1 UPT and the AI was supposedly even worse. If i get the Civ itch I still play IV. Complain about SoD's all your want, but the danger you...

    Captain Marvel (2019)

    People questioning her tone in the trailer - she says like 2 lines in the entire trailer, and its pretty clear those are early on in the movie. She shows up on earth confused, trying to figure out this place that seems familiar yet so far from what she now knows. By the end of the film she'll...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    I was watching it yesterday again, and that part made me think this too: Not only was Quill dumb for doing that, but Gamora herself was just as dumb for going to find Thanos on Knowhere as well. She thought she might be the only one who knew where the Soulstone was, she thought Quill should...

    Yeah it was a great, sobering way to start that movie. Seeing the two baddest avengers get rocked by him in the first 5 minutes told you right away this wasn't going to be your typical storyline.

This makes sense, whether its real or not you had to be figuring that...

    8/10. My biggest impression coming out of that movie is that the cinematographers should win an Oscar for this one. The story, acting, etc were all good, but they've had better in the series. The action sequences and views were differentiators though. Maybe this was so obvious it hasn't...
