Crimson Tide

Here I am still waiting for the start of the NBA Finals. :/ So the X-factors are Kyrie and Barnes? Let's see what happens, hahaha. Just a bold prediction - GSW in 5.

OMM - Planning to get Ys: Memories of Celceta since it's the only one aside from Kefkin I haven't played in the series but I don't know if the local game store has it.:|

BIg Sean - Control ft. Kenrick Lamar & Jay Electronica

Now, I really don't think he's doing it on purpose and I think he's a good guy off the bench, being a hustle player but he needs to stop clinging on other players. More so with Steph, he's got a bad ankle and maybe just maybe this guy will accidentally break it like he did with Korver. _______ Well, it looks easy to do but it sure will be hard to execute. I don't think Klay can stop LeBron at all, with that size difference. The only guys I think can fare well is Iggy and Green because Iggy's athletic, has about the same body build and can probably guard him on the perimeter and Green can on the post with his strength. Kyrie's been inconsistent in the playoffs (does he still have injury?), JR's been inconsistent his whole career so I guess it will all go down to how consistent they can be in the finals. If they can't stop LeBron it will be hard, unless of course they're hot on offense as well. I don't think Cleveland has enough perimeter defenders.

I wish Google Translate translation's rate goes up. Reading untranslated web novels through Google Translate sucks. :|

OMM - Nearing June 8. I don't feel like going to class again.

James Harden was cooking! ____ Golden State in about six. As long as they can devise a defense to stop James or atleast make him less useful, I think they can win the series. No James stopper like Leonard though. Might be hard for Draymond Green since LeBron is a lot faster than him imo.

I think Klay's struggle has more to do with him doing his best at defense trying to stop Harden, that should be really tiring. I think he's doing very well at stopping him though, last game Harden had more points from flops the free throw line than his field goals. He was like 3-16 or something lol. __________ Didn't know Kobe had interest in football. Hahaha.

Oh wow, Houston's getting beat in their home court. Watched the first two quarters and Harden's game is desperate ball. The other Houston players weren't good too aside from Howard. Stopped watching after the first half. ________ I grew up watching Kobe too and idolized him (not as much as T-Mac) but he's second. Seeing from the stories I read from sites like Redit, "basketball is life" literally describes Kobe. I doubt he can leave the game of basketball. Wouldn't be strange if I see him as an assistant coach or a staff something like that. Maybe even a part-owner.

Well, they could advance to the Conference Finals but that's the limit I guess. Matthews is a good shooting guard and is a definite keeper for the Trail Blazers. Their problem though, I guess is the depth in the bench. The Afflalo trade really costed them I think, he was not a good fit in Rip City. They lost a good young talent in Barton and T-Rob. I really liked T-Rob's game though, brings energy in Trail Blazers by making hustle plays. Hahahaha. _______ I think everyone agrees that Kobe deserves one final run. I've read tons of stories about his work ethic and this dude is a freak. No one wants winning more than him and he deserves one final ring. He's not worth the 24 mil contract anymore but if he accepts a 7-10 mil one I'd say that's quite a good deal.

Well, last year as well. Blazers got swept I believe by the Spurs in the second round. They might have beaten the Rockets last year but I think it'd be hard for the Blazers to beat the Rockets in a seven game series now. In that one year span, Rockets improved drastically by getting good rotation guys like Brewer, Ariza, Prigioni, Terry and Smith. Harden's game improved too, as a testament of that is him being second runner-up to the MVP. I haven't felt like Blazers improved in that span. Aldridge is already at his peak and they haven't done much to get tons of good role players unlike the Rockets. The only playoff team in the West I believe the Blazers can beat in a seven game series is the Mavericks and the Pelicans. ____ I don't know lol, I really think of Ellis as a poor man's Kobe. Both needs the ball in their hand to be really effective, not catch and shoot situations. They can both slash, and they both have good perimeter game. I also believe that those two should be the one making the plays for themselves, not another guy. I think what the Lakers need at the PG spot is a Derek Fisher kinda guy. High basketball IQ, can play good defense, shoot from the perimeter and doesn't need the ball in his hands often unlike other point guards. Well, all this can be negated by having a really good coach who has a system but Byron Scott isn't the guy imo. Stll, their future's looking good. I think Jordan Clarkson has the potential to be a decent if not one of the best combo-guard in the league and if Nash remains his mentor, I'd say his future can be really good. Plus they have the number two pick in the draft. I just hope they can get a better coach. :|

I doubt the Blazers would be a real championship contender. The highest they can go to is the Western semifinals imo. Lillard has no defense and I still think they lack the depth to be real contenders. I wish Aldridge takes a year then go to the Spurs if Duncan retires next year. I don't believe a Rondo/Bryant combo will work. Rondo needs to dominate the ball and then pass it to catch and shoot players like Allen not ball dominant guys like Bryant to be effective imo. Well, at least the Rondo/Ellis combo didn't work out so I'd say the same for Rondo/Bryant.

OMM - Tempted to do a fresh reset of Windows. Goodbye, progressing download of GTA V! 'Til we meet again!

And I thought I had no life when I played Skyrim for five hours straight. :| OMM - Mega account's halfway full. :/

Nah, weren't robbed. That's just how lottery works I guess. I really think the Knicks should go for Mudiay, he's the best player available at that point if Towns and Okafor were taken already. I doubt Dragic will go to New York given how much better the Heat is at this point. Brandon Knight and Reggie Jackson are both restricted free agents, and given the way they play, I'd say the Suns and Pistons will match any offer. I'm a Rondo fan but he's a shell of himself at this point tbh. Jahlil Okafor welcome to LA land! lol

Not really the biggest fan here, so I really didn't know these details hahaha. Well, in my opinion Fate is the closest to being a "true" route, because after finishing the three routes you'll get an extra epilogue for Fate. And also because Saber's the cover girl. That's just my view on things though, if Nasu says there's no true route then there isn't lol. Just that it's the closest for me and it having a shit adaption is a crime. As for Heaven's Feel I think a two part movie would be better rather than dragging it on for seven parts, so that it wouldn't feel too lackluster. Five hours is enough imo. __________________ Marika's kinda okay-ish? Well, kinda annoying but not as annoying as Chitoge. Onodera I just can't stand from the start, sorry.

I doubt they'd get a decent big man on free agency, not much can provide the upside Okafor and Towns has. Well, Marc Gasol's already proven but I doubt he'd leave a contender like Memphis for a lottery team like the Lakers. And Aldrige probably won't leave Trail Blazers too. Lakers might get Russell but I hope not. 76ers needs him. Well, I don't think they'd get Mudiay though. Clarkson shows he can be a starting caliber PG/SG. edit - Nothing beats Kobe's contract though.

Aaaaand there you have it, Howard's injured! Hahahahahahaha. Was a closer game than I expected, and both team showed they can perfom in the clutch. Harden carried Houston in the 4th, was kinda amazed how he was shooting those ridiculous lay-ups and stepbacks. Still gotta complain less over a foul though, that's lame. He was making tons of errors that could have won Houston the game though. I think the biggest problem the Hawks have is that they have no go-to guy in the clutch. The closest I think they have is Teague but I dunno. Haven't seen him bank a game-sealing or game winning shot in the playoffs yet. ______ My 76ers got bad luck, with the Lakers winning 2nd. No one's got it worse than the Knicks though. I just hope the Wolves and Lakers get Okafor and Towns, not Mudiay and Russell. edit - What's wrong with Cauley-Stein? First he got his name changed and now he's spouting about how he's called a hundred million dollar player? I'm sensing a bust 'round here. Dude had a hard time guarding Kaminsky.

Well, judging from the latest volume I'd say he's toned down. Should have saved it for later though. I swear, if they're not going to release it this year. *sigh* And I don't think they can cover up the whole route in just one movie, or else it'd feel rushed a la UBW 2010. That'd be some major cliffhanger though, if the first movie only contains half of HF. And I still believe ufotable's saving Fate for last. Or else it'd be gruesome, with the true route having a shit adaption and nothing else. I can't find myself liking Onodera so...

That makes sense. Kinda hard to find someone making commentaries with a good sense of humor though. Heck, when I'm gonna watch someone playing it, I'd rather they don't have commentaries. Just straight to business. @Uncle Sporkum - I guess that's why it's not getting any attention. I doubt anyone will be interested listening to voice-overs. Well, unless your handsome as fuck and you're gonna include your a video of your face while in session.

Yeah, Rockets are gonna miss Beverley. They've got good Post D with Howard manning the post but their Perimeter D? I think Brewer's the only good defender there. Josh Smith's good too but I still think of him as a post defender. Haven't watched his game to see how he plays now. I don't think the Harden-Terry combo can contain the Splash brothers. I'd go with a safe 4-2 Warriors. Hahaha. As much as I praised Cleveland my last post, I'm still gonna root for the Hawks. I'd rather go with a fresh Finals, with players that I haven't seen on there for the past few years. Don't want to see LeBron again in the Finals. Well, I probably would if he's undefeated but he's not so...

Not really. Some of the guys I talked to at another forum said they preferred season one's art too. To each his own, I guess. I really miss Hachiman's dead fish-eyes though. ______ Here I am still waiting for Heaven's Feel. Damn. edit - Tsugumi should be one of the heroines. Now she's becoming more or less a side character. :|

I swear, most light novels at Baka-Tsuki (and other translation sites) have exactly the same genre. Heck, others have the same plot with just different "skills" or whatever. Wasn't a bother when I first read a light novel like that but after a while it just gets irritating. I'm not one to hate on fantasy anime but make it a bit more original I guess. I'm seeing tons of SAO clones. Not that SAO was good in the first place. If web novels get anime adaptions though, that'd be brutal. They're less professional than light novels. *sighs* _____ KOTD MASSacre

The only let's play channel I watch now is Chris Smoove, because of NBA 2k. Not really interested with his other series. @ Uncle Sporkum - Well, most of the time people tend to ignore those music advertisements posted at social medias. They're annoying really, especially when they're spamming it everywhere (like those shit at the comment section of Youtube). I guess rather than trying to gain international attention, try gaining attention at your own city first. Ehh, I don't really know anything about artistic pursuits though. Never did it, and I probably never will. OMM - I'm one big hypocrite.
