@kachinuel @ShamsCharania He wont get MVP anyways but All NBA first team is possible. All NBA second team is certain!

@ShamsCharania If Luka gets a pass for a birth, does another guy get a pass for a family funeral? Or a bad flu? It’s a 65-game limit for a reason. It sucks that he got injured last night, but that’s the risk of the season. You can’t move the goalposts just because the MVP trophy is at stake.

Statement from Luka Doncic’s agent Bill Duffy of WME Basketball: "This season, Luka Dončić has performed at a historic level, leading the league in scoring, carrying the Lakers to third place in the Western Conference and placing himself in the middle of one of the most tightly contested MVP races in memory. To ensure that Luka’s incredible accomplishments this season are rightly honored and he can be considered for the league’s end-of-season awards, we intend to apply for an “Extraordinary Circumstances Challenge” to the 65-game rule. Luka missed two games this season for the birth of his second child in Slovenia. His daughter was born on Dec. 4 on another continent, and yet he was back in the United States competing with his team on Dec. 6. Luka has gone to great lengths to show up for his team and this league this season. His record-breaking season deserves to be noted in the history books, despite last night’s unfortunate injury and other extraordinary circumstances. We look forward to working with the NBAPA and the league office to ensure a fair outcome in this matter."

@CRITIKUZ @MojoboJomo they have no incentive to do so... thats a ridiculous proposal

@DonRonRaven @MojoboJomo Or have the grid suppliers pay for it 😉

why wouldn't this work? like, all that wasted energy going nowhere, why not use it? But I probably don't know anything about this

@CRITIKUZ @MojoboJomo no its not bc. gym owners would have to invest money first to put a generator on every machine - in short to install the whole tiny: electricity production grid to be able to that and have to get contracts with grid suppliers.

@DonRonRaven @MojoboJomo Well it is cost efficient since people training there are paying to train there. 😜

@MojoboJomo 2_to grid operators to be allowed to put energy into the grid and to get money from the energy they put in. Thats too much of a hassle given the tiny ROI.

@MojoboJomo 1_No way that is cost efficient: every machine would have to be connected to its own tiny generator - that will have to produce electricity that most likely going to be stored into a battery - that is in turn converted to grid compatible energy. Gyms would have to make contracts

@haugejostein Norway has oil!

It's socialism — not capitalism — that creates prosperity. Norway has one of the strongest welfare systems in the world. In Singapore, most people live in housing built by the government. In Luxembourg, social spending as a share of GDP is among the highest in the EU. Most countries that score well on this chart do so because they have socialist policies in place that increase social mobility and reduce economic precariousness.

@_HowieDoo @SarksDaddy @blindbliss_ @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright exactly - I dont either- that said - MVP race for Luka seems to be over after last nights game. Thunder annihilated the Lakers and Luka got a hamstring injury...

@DonRonRaven @SarksDaddy @blindbliss_ @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright No

.@DannyParkins: "Luka and SGA’s numbers are close, but Shai is a much better defender. If there was a 3rd team All-Defense, he'd make it." @getnickwright: "If you compare their careers, primes or playoff numbers, Luka clears him. I don't think SGA is the best player in the NBA."

@LMAOmaster2003 @vapor_waif efficient? not really

@vapor_waif Are we fuckin retarded? Yes, soldier die to bombs, yeah we knew. This doesn't make this useless. There is a reason why USA has by far, the most efficient military in the world.

this is the problem with the US defense industry. They invest millions into some really cool irreplaceable gadget meanwhile the soldier wearing this expensive helmet gets blown up by a soviet artillery shell duct-taped to a DGI or a shahed with a recycled moped engine

@JacobIvers @memecrashes there is way more objectiviy to art then a lot of people think...

@memecrashes Art is based on opinion, mathematics is based on reasoning

mathematics is, literally, closer to arts than to sciences

@SarksDaddy @OliFatouAisha @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright Thunder play Lakers two more times this season- If the Lakers can pull of one or two wins against them and Luka outplays Shai in the matchup then this should be the decisive factor in the MVP race.

@OliFatouAisha @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright Why are you lying 🤣 SGA emphatically outplayed Luka in the playoff series , SGAs teammates didn’t show up & lukas did . Mavs had 4 of the top 5 scorers that series 🤣🤣🤣

@SarksDaddy @OliFatouAisha @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright maybe bc Lukas a better playmaker than shai ;)

@SarksDaddy @blindbliss_ @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright so you think Luka playing on the Thunder last year - switching places with Shai wouldnt have won them the title? You think Switching Tatum and Luka in the finals 2024 would have lost the Celtics the finlas (or switch Brown and Luka)... pick number doesnt matter - OKC is stacked.

@blindbliss_ @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright It matters on a young team. If Luka was playing with a team of majority young 2nd rounders yall would be saying he makes them better not that he has a super team. 6 of their top 11 guys are 2nd round or undrafted . Ihart was just a Knicks backup C

@SarksDaddy @BallingWithMike @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright and how did that work out for them? oh yeah - Dallas is thriving - Harris lost his job - and damn they got lucky (or rigged?) they scored Cooper Flagg... youre not rlly building a case against him

@BallingWithMike @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright A coach AND a organization gave up on him on 2 separate occasions in his prime

@SarksDaddy @FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright Dude. When Dallas went to the finals they were massively overachieving - they and their roster weren't projected to come close to that? What?

@FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins @getnickwright Luka had a perfectly built dream team for himself in Dallas and they didn’t win the chip & he didn’t win the MVP… . Give me SGA , Luka was traded in his prime & had a coach literally quit bc he didn’t wanna coach him

@sharpestsharp_ @NateDuncanNBA differnece is SGa gets a foul call on top

@NateDuncanNBA I wonder why SGA was used for your clip rather than someone else

I asked Steve Kerr about ball-handlers using their off arm, and he gave an illuminating demonstration:

@StaunchDemocrap @GodisEverythi20 @LakeShowYo i know what you mean- but youre a pussy urself i remember back then i would have gotten shot for fucking your mother and yet here we are and you just call me your fatherly friend... just stfu - he goes abt it like that hes gonna get his knee broken at one point or another

@GodisEverythi20 @LakeShowYo Nah, I’ll just keep telling these young heads they’re pussies and they travel non stop. Young cats love to gather gather gather balls into their mouths, like you.

Goga Bitadze EJECTED for Flagrant 2 foul 👀 Luka Doncic was right about this guy 😭

@FastbreakHoops5 unles its a g-league gym or one of the european top teams i agree!

You think this is true or false?

@Ish_is_Back @Teoyaomiquu if Russia manages to take over Ukraine it will gain economic and political power and place military direct at european border lurking to widen its influence on the slavic states that are part of the EU (Slovakia and Tchechia) - it tries to do that now already.

@DonRonRaven @Teoyaomiquu What is the balance of power now? I'm not sure the lines are that clearly drawn.

I think the sequencing here is completely wrong: 1) 16 months ago the USA said that Ukraine isn't the USA problem. 2) only now Europe is indicating that Iran is not a European problem.

@RealPostFolder Condoms exist... what the fck are ou talking abt.?

@Ish_is_Back @Teoyaomiquu You think a possible Russian takeover of Ukraine is not an international affair affecting power balances worldwide over a long time? I do - i think it is a bif deal... esp. for Europe

@Teoyaomiquu But Iran is holding an international Waterway hostage. This does affect Europe. There is no need to join the war in Iran. But don't let your shifts be held for ransom.
