whats the tea on kd leaving the warriors? i was a casual fan at the time it happened so i don't know the situation
well... let me be brief (1/278)
lmao jk but.... well a lot! and most of it is speculation, etcetc ofc we'll never truly know until 20 years later when the last dance-esque documentary comes out about the warriors in the steph curry era lmao-- but the story goes like this:
kevin durant was the superstar of okc thunder and was steadily building up the franchise over the years to become serious contenders for a championship. they were always close, but had never quite made it. but with a good FO/org behind him, westbrook by his side, they were always really close— but again, as we all know, it was never enough (made the finals in 2012. lost. would make the playoffs but always got defeated). in 2016, they once again get really close at the western conference finals where they led the series 3-1 against the warriors. despite that they lose. a mere month later, he joins the warriors: a team that's obviously at the beginning of a dynasty— they won a championship in 2015 and made it into the finals in 2016. but more importantly, the team that beat kevin durant and okc thunder at the conference finals.
there were layers to this "betrayal" and to this day people still think this one decision "ruined the sport" (lol). people saw it as a betrayal on KD's part and it took an incredible hit to his reputation. you almost make it to the finals, you have an incredible teammate in westbrook by your side, an org that supports you and is willing to uplift you to your highest star potential, and you leave? to join the team that BEAT you? to the team that has steph curry, klay thompson, draymond green, andre iguodala?
already a hugely successful team without KD, but with him, it was undeniable. a superteam. yeah, a lot of team has duos or trios. lebron and kyrie, lebron and dwade, harden and cp3, etcetc. but this team was different levels. a whole team full. the team was 73-9 without KD. massively talented already. but now? steph, KD, klay as offensive threats. draymond and andre as defensive threats. insanely good roleplayers like shaun livingston.
everyone was livid. not just OKC fans. everyone in the league! the warriors, and KD's name specifically was tarnished. how disrespectful for the warriors to even think about creating a team like this. how disrespectful for KD to leave an org that's done so much for him. sports media was tearing into them, fans were tearing into them, they were quite literally, the most hated north american sports team. fans were burning jerseys, making videos threatening KD, etc.
we all know how KD with the warriors went. winning fixes all, right? arguably the most dominant team in nba history (2017 warriors vs 1996 bulls a common debate to this day), the warriors absolutely dominated the nba, and went on to win the 2017 and 2018 championships. KD finally gets his two rings and a FMVP. and the warriors still stay the most hated team in the league. you either loved the warriors or hated them! no in between. the narrative is that KD's rings were called into question because he "had a superteam" so they weren't "valid".
2018-2019 is when it all kinda starts falling apart. the warriors are plagued with injuries, and it's just clear they don't have the synergy and chemistry that they did before. it was most clear during a game against the clippers where draymond and kd visibly fought after a bad play at the end where draymond refused to pass to kd. draymond had allegedly yelled at kd and told him to just leave the warriors, and that they didn't need him (kd's contract was up that year as well). KD has said in later years that that argument was kind of like the ~last straw for him and the nail in the coffin for him leaving. he had already been having feelings of being "the odd man out"— though they were winning together and had good synergy on court, the core3 plus the other players were already a tight knit family long before he had arrived. after the incident with draymond, the team never really sat down and talked about it: just brushed it under the rug (dray was suspended for one game but nothing was talked about). KD felt like it was a slap in the face, all this stuff about how gsw is known for good team chemistry and good culture but they just wanted to brush that very public incident under the rug? after that he started playing more selfishly— less like how they would play as a team and more in isolation. KD gets injured during the finals, and as we know, klay gets injured as well: we lose the finals. we don't get the sought after three-peat. KD signs with the brooklyn nets and the rest is history.
i talked a lot about the beginning of KD signing on to the warriors because i feel like that was really the root of why he left. he became one of the most hated players in north american sports. his own fans tore into him. sports media all tore into him. calling him mentally weak, pathetic, etc. and does winning fix all? i feel like KD with the warriors was proof that... it doesn't. KD gets two rings that he basically sold his soul to the devil for AND two FMVPs and people still don't respect him. on top of that he wins it with the warriors: which has always been and will always be Steph Curry's Team. yeah he was integral to those wins, but you can't compete with how steph has built the dynasty, yk? what steph has given to the warriors.
so at the end of the day, the story goes like this: KD "betrays" okc by going to the team who beat him in the conference finals, creates the first real "superteam" in the nba (the superteam discourse is a whole other thing smh like teams aren't trying to do that now but i digress). the whole sports world is going in on him, he's basically sold his soul for these rings. he gets his rings, he gets his FMVP. but his legacy and reputation is still called into question: he's integral but still won his rings and his FMVPs on STEPH CURRYs team, not his. Steph's. on top of all the outside noise, internally he's not happy either. he doesn't feel protected within the team. he has beef with draymond, and steph/klay + the franchise will clearly always have their loyalty to draymond. he doesn't buy into the team culture anymore, and he feels like the odd one out. the only thing that could make him stay would be to keep winning more rings. but the two rings he has didn't fix anything. so why stay? what does he have going for him?
(he goes on to bounce between different teams, tries to build his own superteams but never comes as close as he did. meanwhile steph klay and draymond go through a tough two years, considerably the lowest two years in the steph/core3 era, and come out on top: they win the '22 finals, against a celtics team that had an 84% chance of winning the finals. they save their dynasty, their legacy. steph proves that he won a chip BEFORE KD, during KD, and AFTER KD as well.)

This is the Anon who requested the YJ Camping!AU and I have to say... Talented. Brilliant. Incredible. Amazing. Showstopping. Spectacular. Never the same. Totally unique. Completely not ever been done before.
It's everything I dreamed of and more! I mean, 21k+ words of absolute gay tomfoolery—never wanted it to end. And the way it was paced, read so smooth and natural. Every beat of each scene/moment with the gals was phenomenal. And the comedy! Had me rolling at so many different times 🤣 LOVE how you legit gave each paring enough spotlight and room to develop + breathe. The romance for each felt so uniquely them and especially happy that it ended with LottieNat (top fave of the Core3 pairings).
Could go on forever about this masterpiece of a fic. I'm gonna hold it close and cherish it dearly. Maybe even frame it. You've truly outdone yourself, Novel—all the quality words you've contributed to the YJ fandom—so, so lucky to have you join it. Hope you stay in it for awhile to come. Much respect 🙏
I’m glad it was what you hoped for! It was so much fun to cast back to who these girls were before it all went wrong. I wanted to play it up like a slightly absurdist teen rom-com (nobody guessing Jackie’s plans because half of them are too busy with their own shit and are just sort of ignoring her? peak comedy in my mind). And I wanted to stay true to their dynamics, but like. In a softer, gentler capacity than usual. What if you were in a safe space? What if your team made you nuts, but also had your trust? What if you were forced to room with the hottest girl you’d ever met in a tent the size of a shoebox? Playing out three individual romances in slightly different ways was a blast.

ARMORED CORE3
なんかマイルドになってましたね。
私が操作に慣れたのかもしれませんが、敵もやわらかくて攻撃力もそんなに高くなく、ミッションはかなり簡単になってました。2で難しくしすぎたと思ったのかしら。なんか1寄りになってましたね。(シナリオも)その代わり迷路みたいなステージが増えたかな?と思います。私が3作連続でやったせいでかなりACに飽きて��たので、面倒なミッションはもうええか、とすっ飛ばしてしまいましたがなかなか楽しかったです。
アリーナは2の方が面白かったです。操作性のせいかな。テキストも2の方が好きでしたね。(クリア後の追加機体は倒しておりません)
他のACを雇えるシステムは面白いですね。2対2のアリーナも面白かったです。他のレイヴンが沢山出てくるステージとかもあったりして進化してるなと思いました。味方が沢山いて楽しかったです。
あとシナリオ的に孤独にならなかったのが良かったですね。1も2も寂しかったからね。管理者の保護下から抜け出すのは1でもそうだったけど今回は独断じゃないし。味方というか、同じ方向を向いている人がいたのがめっちゃ良かったです。
次は4ですね。PS3がブルーレイディスクを読み込まないのでXBOXでしないといけないのですが、ちゃんと動くか心配です。あとコントローラーが違うのが心配。

im so tired of people trying to explain lewis going to ferrari in nba terms like no it is NOT like lebron going to the warriors at all!!!! that would imply the warriors are similar to ferrari when theyre not. theyre not an old school dynasty thats been consistently ~around since the beginning of the sport. like their most successful dynasty run has been in the last decade or so built up by the core3. more ACCURATE would be steph moving to the celtics (most iconic team who had a fall from grace and is now focused on a young star to bring glory back home).
ferrari: most championships in f1, arguably the most iconic team in the sport, havent won since 2008, has put all their faith in a young charles to bring the trophy back to maranello
celtics: most championships in the nba (tied w lakers🙄), arguably the most iconic team in the sport (tied w lakers🙄), havent won since 2008, has put all their faith in young jayson to bring the trophy back to boston.
steph & lewis: both brought up a nothing team and turned them into the most dominant and aggressive teams in their respective sports in the modern era, put the teams name on the map and won multiple titles in the last decade.
(also saw someone on tiktok try to say lewis going to ferrari is like dame going to milwaukee and im not even going to entertain how messed up it is to compare LEWIS HAMILTON to dame and the bucks to FERRARI)

Google March Update / Florida 2 / Core 3 Ich habe mir nun einige Seiten angeschaut und ich bin der Meinung, das März-Update ist definitiv ein Backlink/Content-Update... Auffallend: * Die Verlierer haben alle deutlich weniger (Trust)-Backlinks als die Gewinner. * mit gabler.de ist eine Webseite dabei, die einfach nur eine 301 Weiterleitung auf Springer macht (aber massig sehr, sehr guter Backlinks aus dem wissenschaftlichen Bereich, Schulen etc. hat... also viele Trustlinks) * Verlierer haben auf ihren Seiten viel doppelte Inhalte, teilweise einfach umgeschrieben... * Über unsere Kunden kann ich sagen: Kunden, die innerhalb der letzten 6 Monate schlechte Links disavowed haben, ihre Inhalte optimieren konnten und einige Backlinks aufgebaut haben, profitieren vom Update (z.T. mit 11-facher Sichtbarkeitsverbesserung) oder ein kleiner Aufwärtstrend Links sind nicht tot. Guter Content ist nicht tot. Genau das zeigt das Update. #florida2 #march #core3 #google #algorithm #winner #loser #seyboldseo #seolover #seafriend #backlinks #linkaudit #linkriskmanagement #links #content #contentmarketing #linkbuilding #survivor #agency #agencylife #agenturleben #agentur (hier: Seybold - Agentur für Sichtbarkeit) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvM8t4flze0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f9delte6r706

JJ as Chell, Anti or maybe Henrik as Glados, Chase or Jackie as Whitley, core1 the space lover as Marvin, core2 the womanizer a (Illinois) Jackie, core3 the wrong fun facts as Henrik, Cave jonsson as Jack and lastly the turrets as all the fan egos like bingsepticeye, robbie etc. I'm sorry for all this, they might not fit and I just xfhjhcjkl ;-;
i’m sorry, i’ve never played it and haven’t finished Jack’s playthrough!! honestly Chase as Wheatley sounds hilarious though, I love looking for places they fit in like that :) also “space lover Marvin” is a wonderful combination of words
