I think the Clippers were his goal all along. Nobody is reporting that Kawhi would have for sure stayed in Toronto had they pulled of that trade. So that's a pretty big question mark. What if they make the deal and Kawhi decides he still wants to be in L.A. anyways? I get the feeling that OKC was just using Toronto as leverage against the Clips.

I haven't watched yet but I was curious about it based on the PV. Good to hear that the animation is high quality, at least. But I was also interested in Dr. Stone based on the PV and after having watched the first episode, I'm not so sure about it. After watching a full episode I realized I didn't like the character designs, and I my first impression of Senku is especially not good. Kinda hard to enjoy a show when you think the main character is a dipshit I'll give it one, max two more episodes. Looking pretty drop-worthy right now though...

If the condition was "get another superstar and I'll sign" then I don't think the Raptors had a way to match that kind of trade package. What OKC got for George is pretty nuts.

Kawhi to the Clippers, Danny Green to the Lakers... Raptors aren't running it back next year The Clips apparently traded a pretty big package for Paul George as well. SGA, Gallinari, and a bunch of picks. Seems like a really good haul for OKC.

I fucking love the Rals. Ramba Ral is the man. And Jimba Ral is a total nut

You guys watch the 1st episode of this Sacred Beasts thing? I might be kinda hooked.

Just started watching the anime version of Gundam The Origin. I didn't even notice that this was airing this season. Definitely gonna enjoy this. I don't think I finished the last 1 or 2 movies.

I wonder if the final season will be 1 or 2 cour...

SnK was indeed very good this season. I saw some articles the other day that the 4th and final season will begin Fall 2020. I think the end of the 3rd season covers up to the end of chapter 90 of the manga. The latest chapter is 118, and it's a monthly, so there can't be too many chapters left before it ends if they're already planning the final season of the anime. My dark horse pick for Anime of the Season is MIX: Meisei Story. But in the end Attack on Titan is probably the true AOTS.

First day of free agency was pretty nuts! Lots of players on the move. Recap @ Hoops Rumors: https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2019/07/nba-2019-free-agency-day-1-recap.html?fv-home=true&post-id=132100

No worries there, still more story left.

Somewhat of an under appreciated job, I feel like. !Control is pretty darn useful - especially since you have Blue Mage. Makes learning some very useful spells much easier. End of the game is so much easier when you have White Wind and Mighty Guard. Not to mention all the useful Catch/Release monsters there are.

"Some cool moments" about sums it up. It was like an album that really only has, like, 2 good songs but you like it anyway because one of your favourite bands put it out

PES ain't a bad game either. I assume these guys just aren't big fans of sprots and racing games

Great spot to end it. I prefer to be left wanting more rather than for something to get tired, so I actually kinda hope they just leave it at this.

I was just reading some stuff about the Switch version. Sounds very bad indeed

I guess you can make your whole team Hide before every blast of the cannon?

Family: You're not watching the Jays tonight? Me: They're playing the Yankees, probably a waste of time ... ah, what the hell, let's check the score. They're only down 3-2 in the 6th inning, maybe it could be an interesting game! Yankees: Score 7 runs in the inning right after I decided to start watching. Now it's 10-2.

Just checked the PV for Fire Force (Enen? ?no ?Shoubouta??i?) and I gotta say it really caught my eye. Gonna have to watch the first episode to see more.

You don't have Bard until you get the black chocobo right? Keep breaking those rods 4 Bards vs. SolCannon, etc. isn't very fun though.

But you can use all the items! Sucks that all the ABP you're accumulating is going nowhere but it won't be difficult.

Now that the Raptors big run is over, I've come crawling back to my Blue Jays. They're really bad. Nobody was expecting them to contend this year. They're basically seeing what they have in their young players. But wow they're bad. Almost Orioles level bad. Stole a win in Boston yesterday though.

Yeah a full party wipe from L.5 Death ain't fun

Yeah it's a challenge play where you are limited to just four jobs. But you don't pick for yourself - Gilgabot picks for you. A "standard" run is one job per crystal, and you typically wait until you reach each crystal before revealing your job for that crystal. It's more fun with a bit of surprise. And there are other variants that change up the job pools (completely random, popular jobs, only magic casting jobs, only melee jobs, etc). I picked the Classic Jobs restriction (some combo of Knight, Monk, Thief, Black/White/Red Mage) for my latest run. I really like playing FF5 with the goofier jobs. I have a real soft spot for Geomancer and Dancer - gotta love that randomness. But then it's also fun when you roll one of the game-breaking jobs that just makes everything easy. There truly isn't a four job combo that won't work.
