Reddit dug up footage of the Spurs playing Starcraft 2v2 between games of the 1999 NBA finals

the track balls mice, the old laptops the intro music, Timmy getting mad losing to the Admiral. it's all amazing (thx r/NBA)
true gamers @DavidtheAdmiral
@DavidtheAdmiral they were also playing the Knicks in the finals so they probably had a lot of downtime to play games
respect mastermind @seanelliott_32
for everyone finding this video today, the game of StarCraft is still alive and kicking 20 years later with StarCraft 2 and an HD version of Brood War

If you played SC then you should play it now, as it's one of the best games ever made and the Spurs knew it

Twitch CEO Emmett Shear is showing he is completely and utterly out of touch with the people who stream on and watch Twitch. out of touch with esports and video games, the bedrock of Twitch. even out of touch with some his own employees

Twitch needs more from its leader @eshear
@eshear it's not just about porn on Ninja's channel. it's the lack of commitment to secure Ninja, with other big streamers considering leaving. it's the numerous bad rulings and no consistency from Twitch on its bans for streamers, and a failure to address any of them to the community
@eshear even YouTube which is considerably larger than Twitch with more problems than Twitch in its own right, more scrutiny from the media and YouTube's own creators, and less competitors, has had CEO Susan Wojcicki do a solid job addressing problems

If YouTube can do it Twitch can too

Blizzard told a fan in the Overwatch League arena they are not allowed to use 👌for its 'association as a white power symbol' after they flashed it on stream and a complaint was made to the OWL account on twitter
Here is the first hand account from a friend of the fan in the arena
Previously Blizzard has banned the use of the pepe the frog within the OWL arena and all teams/players from using it for its association as a symbol with white nationalism/hate groups

Regarding Ellie:

- Ellie has said in private messages to teammates in the last hour confirming she has not been the one playing, she is a 17-year old girl but is 'not good' at OW, no Second Wind players/mgmt knew
- Blizzard is currently holding a meeting with SW players/mgmt
Punisher, the player assumed to have played as Ellie, is just another NA ladder player. Not a pro smurf or semipro. It is also possible more than one person played under her name.

Correction: The meeting between Blizzard and SW has not yet occurred, will happen in the next hour.
I have received screenshots of Punisher in a private message conversation with a woman Overwatch player 'Catsui', who was not aware of this incident until recently. Punisher, seen in a Battlenet conversation under Ellie, uses his 'egirl smurf' to grief OWL and other top players.

Alright, I've seen too many dumb blue check marks throwing the Spurs under the bus for KD's injury even though we're not in the playoffs. I've decided to roughly chronicle what I remember about last season and how Kawhi is not innocent in all this.

#Spurs #Raptors #Kawhi
1. Spurs gave Kawhi the keys to his injury in August 2017. They had diagnosed him with Quadriceps Tendinopathy (a degenerative disease that can be treated but never healed). Kawhi and his camp sought out multiple opinions and settled on Philly's doctor (who misdiagnosed Fultz)...
The diagnosis was atrophy instead of Tendinopathy. That can be healed with the right treatment....

@DeepMindAI's #AlphaStar is a milestone in #StarCraft AI, but it did not beat the game. Thread. ⤵️
Today at 3am Tokyo time, @DeepMindAI presented one new member of the Alpha family: #AlphaStar, playing StarCraft 2.
#AlphaStar beat two SC2 pro gamers, @LiquidTLO and @Liquid_MaNa, and this, Ladies and Gentlemen, is a real achievement. So can we say that SC2 is beaten, like Go of Chess? Definitely no.

I see people online getting frustrated at fighting games because of lame characters or passive players. The funny thing is that people have been getting mad about this stuff for decades in all types of competition.
There's a dude named Tigran Petrosian who was famous for being a turtle in chess. Everyone hated playing against him because he would play passive and never expose himself. In 1963, he even won the World Championship playing his defensive style.
In the 1990s, there was a dominant hockey team called the New Jersey Devils. They were notorious for implementing a defense system called "The Trap" where they just clog up the neutral zone to counter strong offense. They won 3 cups using this style.

Getting ready for Game #4.

Key thing to watch. Rockets defense was #2 in the NBA after they made a shot and in the series the Jazz are only scoring .89 points per possession after a Rockets make. 1.06 after a Rockets make and 1.61 after a turnover
Incredible energy early on both side. Rockets are far and away best 1st quarter team in the NBA . Outscoring opponents by 17 per 100 possessions in 1st quarter. Have lead by 10 or more in 34 1st Qs. Rockets 15 Jazz 10
Rockets lead it 40-28. The mismatch right now is the Jazz 16th ranked offense v. Rockets 6th ranked defense. Jazz defense is forcing Rockets into the shots they want (they are making some) but offense can't get looks
