what are you talking about? what the fuck is my crying towel? I'm happy tonight....and don't care what a bunch of fans who aren't think about it...it's fun...I've heard all the disgruntled armchair GM takes for decades...I take a game at a time...this was spectacular...no towels needed. Enjoy greatness

Think he meant you're gonna be handing out the crying towel lol

Actually I was more thinking of starting a dance party thread

Yes. Thank you.

 

[Strenuus]

Well, when you put it that way. THIS makes it surreal.

 

[riverman]

I was being sarcastic about what other fans were posting, not you nor I, and since I saw you liked one of my replies, I thought you'd figure that out.

Sorry to intrude on your posting. Have a nice life.

I didn't sense it but thanks for clarifying....

 

[Bingo Bango]

where were you in 77?

You mean 45 years ago?

 

[Pinwheel1]

We scored 131 points as a team and the 2nd highest scorer had 13, lol

That is pretty funny. I did think that a few of the wings played pretty well. Little with a nice game rebounding and 3 pt shooting.
Thybulle continues to show he has a decent stroke behind the arc. (as long as his feet are set)

And I thought Cam looked more comfortable. I was surprised he played 36 minutes. He did not exactly fill the stats sheet but he was a +29.. he did not hurt us.

yeah.....I was 23 when we won..it was awesome

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

and so….?

his opinion carries less weight for me than any of you bitches I’ve been posting with for years…. #justsayingFAMS

 

[Mediocre Man]

Spectacular performance by Dame.


Embarrassing that we needed it

 

[PCmor7]

I didn't sense it but thanks for clarifying....

Other people were whining about Dame's prime years being wasted. I replied to one that that was misguided. You replied to another with the same thing.

I was making the point that we weren't allowed to just enjoy this performance and the win, you and I weren't.

Anyway, I'm not wasting more of my time on this. I was trying to joke with you and enjoy the game a little more. Live and learn.

I haven't seen one in my lifetime yet. I want to see and feel that awesomeness.

 

[Bingo Bango]

Yes it was! I was in college at the time. Will never forget Walton slapping the ball out to Johnny Davis and watching him run out the clock to win the game.

I misunderstood you ...sorry..not personal. Hard to read tone with typed conversations or sarcasm without green font.....it's all good. No need to stop joking just because I missed the joke bro

 

[Strenuus]

Peep how he starts answering the first question.

 

[MickZagger]

We won

We did win. But him being at a peak as a player and our inability to form a competent roster around him in a way makes it a tough pill to swallow.

I’m not a fan of team sports because of accolades that an individual player receives.

Just win, baby.

 

[blazerkor]

i think i found at least one coach worse than chauncey.

I don't know how anyone judges Chauncey with the roster he's been given. There is not question that he could be more flexible with his coaching philosophies but if it's been made clear to Cronin that Chauncey has certain things that he will not bend on then Cronin has severely handicapped Chauncey with the roster he has given him.

I think Chauncey can be a great coach if he has a roster full of switchable players on defense that can sufficiently hurt opposing teams on offense. Sure Chauncey's inflexibility seems to be a weakness with the current roster but the current roster fucking sucks and it fucking sucks even worse when it is framed in the light of Chauncey's philosophies.

 

[OneSport3]

I really hope we can make a run to end the season around the 4th seed. If we do that, Dame could have a legitimate chance at the MVP.

 

[blazerkor]

Peep how he starts answering the first question.

Yeah, given the team that he has, we can almost expect Dame to lead the league in ppg by the end of the season and increase his apg.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Little now shooting 41% from 3 for the year. That number will drop but he looks like he going to be a very solid 3pt shooter.

 

[Strenuus]

 

[Strenuus]

Why you gotta do Ben like that lmao

 

[Haakzilla]

...and it came back "Ice Cold Tank Proof"!

Just gets more impressive. The fact that he didn’t score 71 as a foul merchant either. Mitchell was 20-25 from the free throw line.

Thanks for sharing

Mitchell needed 10+ more minutes to get his 71.

Dame is getting 80+ with 10 more minutes.

Both amazing performances.
