It’s game day, c/NBA! I’ll put this placeholder game thread for now, hopefully while waiting for the NBA_BOT to generate the official thread.
Post-match summary:
| Q1 | Q2 | Q3 | Q4 | FINAL | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Los Angeles Lakers | 20 | 34 | 26 | 27 | 107 |
| Denver Nuggets | 34 | 29 | 24 | 32 | 119 |
Hey, we had a bot that broke at some point over the offseason and the creator isn’t interested in fixing it, do you have any interest in being modded to handle game threads going forward?
Do we have the GitHub of that bot? It worked great the first time. I’ll look into forking it if you can find it.
So the mod Barns made/ported the other NBA bot, the bot I was talking with someone about in my DMs was a different bot, but I believe it’s one that gets used on Reddit a lot that was ported here and stopped working. The user had it working on my Phillies sub for ~half the summer until it stopped.
The bot is called “redball” and it’s on github, I believe this is the link https://github.com/toddrob99/redball
Again, not the same exact bot as far as I’m aware, but it did work well when it was up, I think it was actually quite simply banned for spam posting & possibly not flagging itself as a bot and the owner of the account just got pissed off and didn’t want to work on it anymore at least on LW.
Hello head mod, I think @rezz@lemmy.world’s approach is the best with a single day thread for all the games considering the size of our community :-)
I also found out it’s not as easy running a bot on lemmy
Yeah, it seems like a fair approach, if you’re up to the task I can mod you so that you can pin them though.
Sounds great! I’m definitely up for it :-) Though I would like to coordinate with @rezz@lemmy.world to avoid any potential double posts, since I really liked his format
Wow looks like I missed the party, as I just woke up. Also noticed I messed up the game start time (I wrote 21:30 EST instead of 19:30 EST), probably because of sleepiness.
I’ll try to catch the replay to see the action.
Now comes the “Who’s your daddy” chants.
LA…
Oof.
This is looking like it could be a good finish. Was worried when the Lakers went down like 17 early on.
Cameraman sacrificed so we could get a clean view of Austin Reaves’ ass, apparently
