Something about his explanation doesn’t feel right to me, like was my guy doing rails of that Colombian bam bam for his mental health lol?
- Comment on Luka Doncic Is The Worst Defender In NBA History 2 days ago:
TL;DW: He’s actually average. Statistically he’s a better defender than 50% of the league.
Yeah I get that, I’m a Lakers fan and I’m tired of it too lol.

- Comment on Antony Davis to Undergo Hand Surgery; Out Several Months 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, they’re kind of stuck. If Dallas trade AD for his actual market value then the Luka trade just looks so much worse. But trading him is the right choice and the longer they wait the worse the return will be.
- Comment on Antony Davis to Undergo Hand Surgery; Out Several Months 2 weeks ago:
There’s always a market for the right price. This isn’t a Trae Young situation, Davis is undeniably a top ten talent… when he actually plays.
- Comment on Antony Davis to Undergo Hand Surgery; Out Several Months 2 weeks ago:
I guess AD is staying in Dallas this year lol
- Comment on State of the NBA Trade Market 3 weeks ago:
I think Trae Young is seen as a losing player that basically has a net negative impact on a team, at least at his current salary. The other players mentioned are seen as additions that will improve your chances of winning.
- Comment on Steam Machine price leak suggests it will cost as much as an iPhone 3 weeks ago:
I’m with you on that but the price still seems steep to me. Last I heard Sony makes a profit selling the PS5 Pro($750) and the Steam Machine has worse specs (60cu vs 28cu GPU/ 2TB vs 500GB storage).
Personally I was considering getting a Steam Machine over upgrading my PC just to make my life easier. But, not for that much of a premium.
- Comment on Steam Machine price leak suggests it will cost as much as an iPhone 3 weeks ago:
That seems like a niche within a niche to me. The Steam Deck filed a hole in the market, the Steam Machine doesn’t. Either way that doesn’t explain the high price, last I heard Sony makes a profit selling the PS5 Pro($750) and the Steam Machine has worse specs (60cu vs 28cu GPU/ 2TB vs 500GB storage). Like others have mentioned, the price might be reseller pricing vs buying directly from valve.
- Comment on Steam Machine price leak suggests it will cost as much as an iPhone 3 weeks ago:
But why buy the Steam Machine over a PlayStation at that point? Your getting worse performance for twice the money. Isn’t the SM meant to convert console players, most current Steam users already have PCs. Or am I looking at this all wrong?
- Comment on Steam Machine price leak suggests it will cost as much as an iPhone 3 weeks ago:
I hope not, that’s pretty terrible pricing for what you’re getting.

- Comment on Giannis Out 2-4 Weeks with Calf Strain 1 month ago:
OKC, Minnesota, and Clevland are all small markets and all have done better constructing teams. Middleton should be a #3 option on a championship team, not a max guy. Like name a championship team with a worse #2 option?
Your right that attracting free agent is more difficult for small markets but, thats why all the teams I listed above built thier team through the draft. The Buck traded thier pick for underwhelming players and most of the picks they did draft arent even in the league anymore.
They got lucky with Giannas and he’s been carrying that franchise ever since, everything outside of that has been sub par.
- Comment on Giannis Out 2-4 Weeks with Calf Strain 1 month ago:
It’s no one’s fault but they have no more moves to make.
I disagree with you here. The Bucks have consistently put a sub par team around Giannis for his entire career. Giannis had to put up one of the greatest nba finals performances of all time to win that one title.

Klay’s pretty on point here.
- Comment on Steam Machine 2 months ago:
It seems to just be a 7600m laptop GPU which comes with 8Gb. I don’t think this is a custom chip like SONY uses but, just off the shelf stuff AMD sold for a discount.

That sounds like a terrible idea honestly.
- Comment on Lenovo Legion Go S with SteamOS at CES 2025 video by Verge 1 year ago:
$499.99 SteamOS version with 16GB / 512GB, a $599.99 Windows version with 16GB / 1TB
Looks like you get an extra 500gb with the base windows version for some reason. IDK what the deal is with that?
- Comment on Lenovo Legion Go S with SteamOS at CES 2025 video by Verge 1 year ago:
That can’t be the case, can it? $100 for windows, which realistically might actually run many games worse is wild lol.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 1 year ago:
Yeah, but I was thinking more parents buying a console for their kids. Like oh little Jimmy can do his homework on this thing too, great I didn’t have to buy him another computer. Or imagine if Microsoft put windows on Xboxes, every office building would be full of them lol.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 1 year ago:
Forza Motorsport will do 4k60 on Series X for example. Most Racing and Sports games will do 4k60 on modern consoles since they’re easy to render.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 1 year ago:
I think the biggest thing would be getting a PC with decent specs for $500. Why would anybody buy a Dell desktop or the like ever again? Like even if you don’t game and need to do office work it’d probably be the best option.
- Comment on It's Time to Bring Back the Steam Machine 1 year ago:
Racing and Sports games for sure.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 years ago:
That’d be some top tier trolling by Valve lol.
