@BryanIsTheKing Why are we believing he is disgruntled? Did he say it? One anonymous report and its truth? If he is thought, I think he has a right to be after being in trade rumors his entire career, and roundly hated by the fan base.

He has 0 reason to be disgruntled. The Heat gave him more opportunity than anyone at his talent-level deserves

Absent a U.S. boots-on-the-ground invasion and occupation, it’s clear Iran will win this war. It will emerge with more influence in the Gulf than it had before the war started, and control over the Strait of Hormuz will give it an economic advantage it never enjoyed in the past.
English
@BryanIsTheKing It is very comparable, you have a chance to get a star, you worry about roster building after the fact.
English
@ItsFeiny The Big 3 covered for a lot of the roster flaws. Much more room for error. Also the cap structure was completely different. Not really comparable tbh
English
Same feeling. Giannis makes the Heat better right now. Obviously. Throwing Giannis on a 10 seed who will then have no means to improve the roster around him sounds a lot like current MIL but with better weather
English
@BryanIsTheKing They all said they couldn’t build a roster around the big 3 and then ended up doing it. That’s the point I’m making.
English
@ItsFeiny The Heat do not have a DWade on this roster and CB was a little better than Bam. Plus the supporting cast isnt near as good and doesnt fit as well. It's not nearly the same

@DisplacedGenius @archer_won @pati_marins64 They already have sent those things and nothing happened to them. Your brains are mush.
English
@archer_won @pati_marins64 How does it continue to elude you sycophants, that the "strength" you keep quoting is America's weakness?
Those things cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and basically can not be replaced.
Iran WANTS America to send in A10s, Cobras, Apaches. That calculus favors Iran.
English
This is an extremely difficult task, which is precisely why it was not accomplished in the first 40 days of the war.
Dozens of these speedboats are equipped with anti-drone air-defense systems, and it is possible that one of the A-10s shot down in the Gulf was actually brought down by one of these systems.
There are hundreds of boats armed with missile and torpedo systems, plus hundreds more fitted with rocket launchers that are now receiving guidance kits.
In short, a drone force can begin to engage these fast attack boats in the strait, but destroying hundreds of them is no easy task.
And if we include the models equipped with cannons, the total rises to at least 1,500 vessels.
It is a classic mosquito fleet, one the United States is not prepared to confront. Large warships are simply not effective against this type of threat.
To make the situation even more complicated, Iran has accelerated production of its 359 anti-aircraft missiles.
These can be launched in the Strait of Hormuz without the enemy drones even being detected.
The munition then loiters until it finds and engages its target.
This is not merely asymmetric warfare. It is a genuine headache for the entire doctrinal model established by the US Navy.
English
@pati_marins64 Nothing you say is accurate or makes any sense. These boats are causing no damage, we sent destroyers to the strait to make Iran expose themselves, and then crushed them. Nothing happened to the US equipment. All this fast boat talk and it did nothing.

UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTH:
Trump only exposed that The U.S. is weaker than what everyone thought, The U.S. can't even defeat Iran's small speedboats.
They will never stand a chance against a real super power like China, Russia or North Korea even.
Understand what's going on.
English
Iran has total control over the strait.
The USA has 0% control.
And Iran's control keeps expanding.
Robert A. Pape@ProfessorPape
Most are missing what really happened yesterday: Iran EXPANDED its control of Hormuz Threatening UAE pipeline that evaded earlier attacks, cutting oil etc even more Iran gained more power
English
@realgerhardtvdm What data supports this? It’s just anti American propaganda devoid of reality.
English
🇮🇷🇺🇸100% UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTH:
Iran ONCE AGAIN outsmarted the U.S. With these small lethal speed boats, Iran controls the straight of Hormuz with these speed boats.
This proves size doesn't matter! Being fast, efficient and smart is key to dominate
English
@Ross__Hendricks @clockwisecap1 Why wouldn’t they lie about this? It’s just like them saying the US navy targeted civilian boats.
English
@clockwisecap1 Oh sure, makes plenty of sense why they would lie about this and not the other way around.

Looks like someone planted a false flag to draw the US back into war

BREAKING: IRGC SPOKESMAN: In recent days, the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran have not carried out any missile or drone operations against the United Arab Emirates. Had any such action been taken, we would have announced it with full firmness and clarity. Therefore, the report from that country's Ministry of Defense is categorically denied and is entirely devoid of truth. Should any measures be taken against Iran from Emirati territories, our response will be severe.
English
@pati_marins64 You might be the worst journalist on Twitter, and that’s a low bar.
English
Today, two U.S. destroyers transited the strait into the Persian Gulf without being harassed by the Iranians. It’s possible they will anchor in the Emirates to reinforce anti-aircraft defenses.
And why didn't Iran stop these vessels? Because, by all indications, there is an agreement where Iran pretends nothing passes through the strait, and the U.S. pretends no Iranian ships are leaving the region.
As I reported yesterday, about 25-35 Iranian ships loaded with oil bypassed the American blockade. Why? The U.S. priority is to maintain the flow of oil in the international market, and stopping Iranian exports would only worsen that. Obviously, this deal includes Iran quietly allowing the passage of several tankers.
So, one side pretends to run a naval blockade against Iranian exports, while the other pretends the strait is closed to American military ships.
Iran is the clear loser in this deal, giving Trump the argument that the operation freedom project, he claims to be implementing is actually opening the strait by force.

The Iran war shows we need a new defense strategy against China and Russia.
1. If Iran—a second rate military—can significantly damage U.S. bases, this means China or Russia can obliterate our overseas bases.
2. U.S. will run out of defensive munitions against China and Russia.
Republicans against Trump@RpsAgainstTrump
“Unprecedented destruction” Majority of U.S. military sites in the Middle East damaged by Iran, CNN investigation reveals. Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth desperately tried to keep the extent of the damage from the public so people wouldn’t see how badly this was botched. Now the images are coming out and they’re disturbing.

@GamingNaRoli “The USA will lose btw” based on vibes. Under no metric would the US lose to anyone.
English
I hope we never get to a war between China and the USA, the USA will lose btw but the loss of life will just be unnecessary.
Fahad Naim@Fahadnaimb
China now has around 300 J-20 stealth fighters and is ramping up production fast. But numbers don’t tell the full story... engine reliability still lags (more frequent maintenance) and PLAAF pilots have zero recent combat experience (last real war was 1979). Impressive on paper, but sustainment and human factors remain big gaps.
English
@Silent97Percent @RT_com The destroyer wasn’t event near the conflict, y’all are dumb.
English
@RT_com We aren't getting the full story. Like those 2 ships that got decommissioned for random "fires"

@HARZ97485790 @BRICSinfo They’ve already tried. This is all propaganda.

@BRICSinfo This is what US want... and was waiting for! If IRGC attacks any of US ships first, they would blame themselves!

JUST IN: 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei says US ships belong in the "depths of its water."
IRGC: "American ships will soon meet the same fate as US bases in the region."
English
Donald Trump's blockade of Iran is backfiring.
The US is holding the world economy hostage to starve Iran, and now we are headed to Great Depression-like crisis.
All because the empire can't admit defeat. If US military aggression could beat Iran, it would have happened by now.
Instead, Trump is starving the whole world out of desperation. The legitimacy of the US empire will never come back from this.

⚡️NEW
The 15 unexploded American heavy munitions currently in Iran are being sent for reverse engineering
Among the munitions is a fully intact GBU-57 bunker-buster, which the US uses against Iranian underground missile and nuclear facilities
If Iran gains full access to GBU-57 technology, it could trade it with Russia and China for other military technologies it needs
English
According to reports, 15 unexploded heavy American missiles & ordnance inside Iran, were transferred to “technical and research units” for “reverse engineering”.
Among the heavy missiles/bombs that Iran fully recovered is a GBU-57 bunker buster bomb.
