But he doesn't like one black man enough. That is as racist as it gets. Next he'll don white robes and set joggers on fire.
Well you see he is implying that black basketball mans are fungible- except he isn't because he specifically want other basketball man so-
The Greatest of All Time.
They had to make defense itself illegal to even come close to replicating him.
Everything resembling defense has been a foul since 1999. That was the first step towards going woke.
Jordan would have broken Lebron.
Current Day NBA games are just three-point shots and free throws. Its boring as shit.
Can you explain that more? It sounds really interesting but I don't follow basketball so I don't know the history here.
Here you go. A highly-detailed look at how defense became impossible.
Thanks. The document makes it pretty clear that the tighter and more aggressive defense line which predated the rule change provided the resistance necessary for that era's players to develop much strong skill. Why did the NBA change the rules?
Money.
They thought the fans wanted easy highlights and no defense. So they took advantage of the 1998-99 lockout work stoppage and changed the rules to end defense.
No one playing today has ever had to face real resistance. No struggle. No fight.
Surely that lowers the amount of money they could be making by reducing the number of people willing to watch the game....
Just sharing an inane conversation showing how watered down the definition of racism has become.
You might get uncomfortable stares if you talk about "skins" around anyone who isn't a gamer and isn't familiar with the term regardless of anything to do with race.
But explain to them in simple language that it means swapping the appearance of a character without changing gameplay and they'll probably understand. And if they wouldn't, are they really the kind of people you would want to be around?
I found that life improves drastically when you question why you hang around the people you do instead of just doing it out of inertia. Subjecting yourself to an asshole who whines about how oppressed he is while making life a living hell for everyone around him takes a real toll on your sanity. Feminism isn't conducive to healthy relationships of any sort.
It's a F2P game, so DLC vs. cosmetics ends up being the same thing, basically.
But yeah. It's a character from Space Jam, who is based on and played by a real life basketball player who is capable of putting the orange thing in the red thing. Obviously this means there's a racism.
It's not for a basketball game, it's for a knock-off smash bros with the Space Jam licence. It'd be the same fighter, just a different skin.
Yeah but they have the same moveset
Tiny sample of a population cowering, walking on eggshells because every damned thing a white person thinks or does is racist.
I'm getting nostalgic for the days when white racists were in the open and proud of their racism. At least it was concrete then. Now it's like some obscure metaphysical condition or like a virus that can occupy a host without his knowing it.
Good grief. Just play the video
3 out of 4 people in that conversation are pozzed. Blue is an absolute gigacuck waste of oxygen.
Dude just wants to play as Michael Jordan instead, because, let's face it, there is no comparison.
Imagine giving this much of a shit about jewish controlled nigger-golems in a bullshit piece of software mimicking a nigger's only life-goal.
The “gather step” and “euro step” ruined basketball.
No such luck either in the video game this is about (Multiversus, open beta today, I'm shilling because if it does well I will make a good amount of money), nor in the NBA.
I'm shocked it's taken this long for a big publisher to make a complete smash bros rip-off for the PC. And even more shocked it ended up being the looney toons.
What makes Smash popular casually are the characters. Competitively, I haven’t played it yet so I need to try it and see how much I like it tbh.
Pls spend money on it, I need cash to buy a bugout ranch in the mountains.
Why will you make money?
While your curiosity is justified, I'm not giving any more details. I will tell you, though, that almost no women will get rich off the game if it does well.
