A few quick questions. How much damage do critical hits do now? I've read 133% and also 150%, just looking for some clarity. And how does Sniper effect it? I've read from 200% to 225%. Also, is it possible to reset the roaming legendary birds for IVs/Natures in XY or are they permanently set...

Looking for a female Vulpix with Drought and a female Poli(wag/whirl/toed/wrath) with its dream world ability. I don't have a lot to trade. Pokerus, some Larvesta or Axews with good natures and 31 speed, a few random other things from my days playing gen IV. Please let me know if you can help :)

Hakeem training players won't hurt them any, but it's pretty overblown. Did you know he spent time training Emeka Okafor? Yeah, didn't help much. Even if they both drastically improved their post games (unlikely IMO), Melo will still be a black hole on offense and they will still have a million...

Lopez hasn't been healthy in two years. Not to mention the Pacers are an extremely deep team and the Nets were a pile of garbage.

Roy Hibbert is a slightly better rebounder, a considerably worse offensive player, and a much better defender. He is not worth considerably more than Brook Lopez. Deandre Jordan and Omer Asik's contracts both make Lopez' look even better. He is at least as good as anyone in that group and if the...

Career averages for a player that has had two healthy seasons (one of which was his rookie season) don't seem like an accurate way to measure his potential... 2010/2011 he had mono and lost thirty pounds because of it, but played through the season anyway. He's basically a 20/8 guy at 50%...

Humphries wouldn't even be going to the Magic, he'd be going to a third team. But by trading his 12 mil they can take back a lot more (it's also only a 2 year contract). The only contract that the Magic would be "saddled with" would be Lopez... Brook Lopez is a star when healthy and in a world...

Are you just completely ignoring how good Dwight is defensively? He is worlds above Bynum on the defensive end and can literally turn a cast of sub-average defenders into a solid defensive team. On a Lakers team that's already pretty good defensively, they would become a nightmare to score...

I don't see how the Lakers could possibly get Howard at this point. A Howard for Bynum straight up trade makes no sense for the Magic, Bynum has said he won't resign with Orlando and is a free agent at the end of the season. It's a lateral move. The Lakers also no longer have any picks to trade...

I am not a Heat fan, but this was an evenly called game and has been an evenly called series. Also, Lebron having more FTs than the Celtics is not evidence of anything. If you watched that game, he was extremely aggressive (even for him) and got fouled constantly. Using a FT disparity as an...

If the Heat win, I look forward to spending all summer hearing about how the officials gifted the finals to the Heat even though the Thunder have shot themselves in the foot in each of their losses and the games have been called pretty evenly. Maybe Thunder fans (who am I kidding, Heat haters)...

Alternatively, next game Kevin Durant decides he's going to stop fouling Lebron James.

lol Please keep complaining about refs everyone. Durant only has two fouls, and his last one was an obvious hack on Lebron (that ended in a three point play).

Exactly. And likewise refs are reluctant to blow the whistle on the final possession of a one possession game (in the finals) when the two best players in the sport are going head to head. This shouldn't surprise anyone. It was a foul, but it's no surprise that it wasn't called. Some calls...

It isn't going to happen, but everyone should really just not even bother talking about Lin for a few weeks. He's hardly proven himself at all and the real test will come when he has to get used to Melo, Stat, opposing defenses knowing his name (and more!), etc. I'm rooting for him, but...

I don't think the 76ers have a shot at beating the Heat in a 7 game series, probably not the Bulls either. They'll be a second round out to one of those two teams, in all likelihood. gsninja, why in the world do you think the East will run through BOSTON this year? They've been pretty bad...

I thought this was the "argue about semantics and subjective opinions" thread :( He seems like his entire problem is consistency, he's definitely taken a step in the right direction, though. I hear the Lakers might trade for Ramon Sessions, he'd be a great pickup, not sure what they could offer...

The argument wasn't that "Lebron is great/terrible/whatever in finals appearances", it was "Lebron is/isn't clutch". That aside, he's been just as good in playoff clutch situations as he has in the regular season. Obviously he had a rough series against the Mavericks, but he was unbelievable...

Breaking down the defense and drawing double/triple teams is not an advantage if you also shoot through the double/triple team every time... SGV/Vein, This argument in general is horrendous. Lebron has been extremely "clutch" regardless of your definition of it, and by most objective measures...

I know you're just being an ignorant troll, but James has been the best clutch player in the league for 3-4 seasons and has been unbelievable in the playoffs. When his last few games were sub-standard, it's easy to forget the other performances he's had. Bulls fans, however, will remember that...
