He’s putting up 26 and 11 and shooting 60 percent.
Stick Davis in a time machine, throw him on the ’87 Celtics as Larry Legend’s wingman in McHale’s place and give him the ball 28 percent less, only he’s getting significantly better chances on one of the most creative teams of all time. If Player A played for a shitty team and did more of everything, it’s safe to say he’d put up Player B’s numbers, right? (Just nod so we can keep going.) Well, Player A is Kevin McHale’s transcendent 1986–87 season (when he broke his foot near the end of the year) Player B is 2016–17 Davis. (If you can’t tell, I’m still bitter that Sheed wasn’t better.) But I’ve seen you before and I’m probably seeing you again. That’s not a bad thing - unlike Rasheed, you play hard every game, you actually enjoy posting up, you’re considerably more coachable, and you don’t react to every unfavorable call like someone tried to tow your car. Sorry, Towns, we’re bumping you from the Unicorn Nightclub. That brings us to our current under-25 unicorn candidates: Anthony Davis, Karl-Anthony Towns, Kristaps Porzingis, Joel Embiid and Giannis Antempokonokokoakkokookookoko (from now on, Giannis). True unicorns: Kareem (impossibly coordinated/durable + the unicornish sky hook) Earl the Pearl (unlike … anything) Pistol Pete (same) Doctor J (mutant hands and moved like a ballerina) Adrian Dantley (a 6-foot-3 herky-jerky post-up specialist?) Gervin (unreplicable isn’t a word, but that was the Iceman) Bird (ditto) Magic (6-foot-9 point guard/genius/leader/never-happening-again) McHale (hold this thought) Hakeem (his backstory and how it helped his hoops game simply cannot be re-created) Barkley Manute Bol (read page 340 of my paperback) Dennis Rodman (can’t be replicated - and maybe the world is safer that way) Durant (McAdoo crossed with Gervin crossed with Spider-Man crossed with Plastic Man with 25-foot range?) and Westbrook (part point guard, part striker, part running back, part Terminator). But I wouldn’t wager on any of those things happening again.
#Battle nations unicorn trooper free
(Quick explanation: Kobe’s relatively creepy Jordan impersonation opened the door for another MJ someday … I could imagine another 5-foot-11 scoring prodigy like Iverson who doubles as the league’s toughest m.f.’er … I could imagine another 6-foot-8 super-athlete like LeBron who never gets tired and plays basketball like he’s the queen on a chessboard … I could imagine another playmaking magician like Curry with 30-foot range … and I could imagine seeing the Sloan Conference lab create another lefty slash-and-kick playmaker like Harden who scores only on 3s, layups and free throws.
Tweener unicorns: Jordan, Iverson, LeBron, Curry, and Harden. Traditional unicorns: Russell, Wilt, Thompson, Dominique, Ralph Sampson, Pippen, Spud Webb, Shaq, C-Webb, Penny, Sheed, T-Mac, Dirk, Yao, and young Blake. Unfortunately it is pricey given its nanopods cost, and also, the unit is no longer available.So maybe there are three versions of an NBA unicorn: the one we had/haven’t seen before but might be replicable (the traditional unicorn), the one we’ll probably never see again (the tweener unicorn), and the one we’ll definitely never see again (the true unicorn). While the Railgun Trooper's excellent damage would do well in battles against the buffed up raiders, namely the Total War Mammoth, Big Bada Boom, Brutal Bombadier and the Brutal Brawler, players should be wary that while the railgun is being charged, the four aforementioned units can still possibly take out the Railgun Trooper before the railgun can be fired.Ĭompared to the Railgun Tech, the Railgun Trooper is better because of the unit's ability to target any column, despite its 1 extra round of cooldown/reload between attacks. The weapon does have a 2-round prep time before it can be used, and a 3-round "cooldown" between shots (limited by its one ammo reload, not its actual cooldown). The railgun has a good chance to do critical damage as well, capable of doing up to 480 damage to most units at rank 1. This attack completely ignores armor, ignores blocking units, will strike an entire column and can be fired from any row. The Railgun Trooper starts out at rank one with 210 and a single, powerful weapon and attack - EPR18: High Velocity Flechette. This premium unit should not be confused with the Railgun Tech that is available through the Prestigious Academy. This unit was available for players who were levels 50 and above, trained in the Barracks (level 1). The Railgun Trooper was a limited time, promotional unit costing 90 and was introduced during the weekend of June 28th, 2013.
