Around the NBA - March 2018

[Boob-No-More]

Haha Westbrick! Dame would have hit that shot!

Westbrick BARELY drew iron. Why the fuck is Westbrook (.287 3FG%) taking that shot instead Paul George (.409 3FG%)? Does Donovan not have the balls to call someone else's number with the game on the line? Does he not know George was the closer in IND, and MUCH better at it than Westbrook?

BNM

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Hawks beat Jazz! Ya!

 

[dviss1]

No. If you offered me money to go play basketball in Lithuania right now, I'd say no. Not interested in it. Not my dream though. Are you seriously telling us what to dream? What we would want? What would appeal to us? I would take my salary, with my house, living in the US over living in Lithuania. That's my personal preference and that's shitty of you to tell me that my personal preference is silly.

You be on some weird shit sometimes. Nobody's telling you what to dream. Get the fuck outta here with that shit.

 

[dviss1]

So if he doesn't have a positive opinion about something that you feel positively about, he's "hating"?

That's the problem with millennials man... Anything negative, no matter how honest the opinion is, is brushed off as "hating".

Think about the word "hate". How is Nate showing the kids hatred? His whole post was based on Lavar's decision making, and the basketball talent of supposed NBA prospects. He should be ashamed of himself? C'mon man.

Really??? I'm 41 fucking years old. I remember BEFORE the word hater was used as a pejorative. We invented that word used in that form.

YOU are the millennial.

And yes, @Natebishop3 is a Lavar hater and so are you. So much that you root for his son to fail BECAUSE of him.

 

[dviss1]

Dviss only knows one speed. If you don't agree with him, your opinion is silly, or foolish, or stupid. You can't simply disagree with him. You're just wrong. Plain and simple.

Yeah, you'd rather work your 9-5 instead if being in shape for a living...

Yeah, that's foolish and stupid to me.

 

[Natebishop3]

*In Lithuania

 

[Lukee]

Who is 1st?

 

[Lanny]

Blazers are changing what is realistic every night.

Yeah, but don't you think that's a bit of a stretch?

 

[BonesJones]

So OKC has won 6 straight and Russ has got a triple-double in 5 straight...... sorry but you guys HAVE to explain to me how this is a BAD thing.... shit, I don’t think the Blazers as an organization has had 5 triple doubles in 25 years!

View attachment 19603

When the dudes shooting 52% it's a better statline.

His rebounds don't mean shit (he steals them)

So he's getting 24pts, 11ast. His scoring is actually effective over this stretch because he's doing it efficiently. His assists are still inflated by him dominating the ball and inly passingnif aomeones wide open, yet hes able to get 11assists because every possession is all about him.

Lmao. I'm not calling you a millenial... I'm saying that's a problem with millenials that for some reason, you have.

I root for Lonzo to fail because he's a Laker, because I don't like his personality, because his rap sucka, because kids like that are always entitled.. I don't like the family. The dynamic. The fact that they breathe Lakers.

But yeah, I'm a hater. Nobody can ever disagree with you or else they're a hater and wrong. Jeez dude.

 

[BonesJones]

Yeah, you'd rather work your 9-5 instead if being in shape for a living...

Yeah, that's foolish and stupid to me.

Nate doesn't have the same opinion as you therefore his opinion is foolish amd stupid!

 

[BonesJones]

Every one of us in here would play for money wherever we'd be paid to play.

You be on some weird shit sometimes. Nobody's telling you what to dream. Get the fuck outta here with that shit.

Um...

 

[Lanny]

I get to the point where I dislike KD more than Draymond. That's just crazy. Used to love OKC Durant. Now he's just a fake tough guy making fun of fans. Fuck off.

I don't particularly like either one.

Come to think of it, I can't think of a single opposing player that I do like.

I really like Embiid. He seems to have a great sense of humor. But if that's verboten around here.....

 

[Lanny]

You gotta be kidding me. Liangelo can go to college when he's done making money to play.

College is OVERRATED.

Charles Barkley said:

I don't have a degree, but a lot of people who WORK FOR ME do.

It appears Mr. Barkley values a college education because he hires a lot of people with college degrees.

As for him not having a degree, yes, some people get lucky in life.

 

[Lanny]

I really like Embiid. He seems to have a great sense of humor. But if that's verboten around here.....

Yeah, take that humor shit and shove it up your ass. Being funny in here is forbidden.

 

[ripcityboy]

Come on, Please! This is HILARIOUS!

 

[dviss1]

Um...

Not sure why you wanna keep talking about this but if you take that as me TELLING someone what to dream, I'd ask you to brush up on your reading comprehension.

Like Bill Gates?

 

[Lanny]

Good one.

#Whatareyouhishypeman?

To me. And it's not for having a difference of opinion.

It's for this SPECIFIC opinion...

His opinion and mine have differed before.

 

[BonesJones]

You're telling someone what they should want. If its a difference in semantics, then fine.

 

[BonesJones]

#Whatareyouhishypeman?

Yes.

 

[dviss1]

Yes.

Well signal the sound man. The gain on your mic is too high.

The joke went whoosh fam.

 

[speeds]

Raps put 79 on the Cavs in the first half.

Giving Bron an extra cole Sprite.



I know it'll wind up being close.

 

[AFully22]

Cleveland gave up damn near 80 pts in the first half. Jesus Christ that defense is bad and Lebron is a part of it as much as anyone. He’s got this not-give-a-shit attitude about him this year that’s hard to ignore.

 

[DDolla]

Raptors lol

 

[Dom McBlazer]

Raptors continue to show why they're a joke of a contender.

Ugh
