Elephant in the room (part 2)

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

I'd tell you guys to get a room, just not one with 2 parts of an elephant in it.
 
So you're saying that a site that had poor to no moderation and slowly died due to a lack of good content (see any thread you ever started there), allowed you to flag posts that called you out for spamming the same, tired, boring, troll-driven, blazer-hating rhetoric? Because this is reality. Welcome to RC2 cupcake - where bad ideas and weak opinion go to die and get ridiculed mercilessly. ;)

They keep trying to kill my bad ideas and weak opinions, but no amount of ridicule can stamp me out.

I'd pay for a room he could have all to himself and fill it with 2 parts elephant dung. He could talk to the poo about his constant Blazer gripes and run his horrible trade spam proposals through the poo to take the stink off them.
 
Cmeese and Blazer Fanatic, we don't have many rules here but we do not allow personal insults. Whatever hated you may have for each other from when you posted on a different forum needs to be left at that forum. Please take the time to create new and original hatred for each other. (Okay, that last part was a joke.)

The rule here is simple, attack the post, not the poster.

Your post is dumb! - allowed

You're an idiot! - not allowed.

Your post is an idiot.

Sucks when posters come into a new forum and constantly make post concerning a gripe they have.

I remember reading the NO board during the summer about losing Lopez. More were concerned about losing what he brings on the offensive side and not so concerned about losing his defense. I'm slowly understanding this.

Bottom line for me is LA seems to love Lopez . . . so I love Lopez

I'm certain there is some algebra involved in that logic.

I don't hate any posters. I hate stupid opinions. I will speak to my editor. ;)

Really then people should follow the sites rules, I have seen threads with moderators calling posters names, numerous threads with direct insults from BF and many others. I have no problem following rules as long as they are selectively enforced.

I don't think mods are calling people names. Some insults are missed. When that happens please let me know and I will remove them.

Personally, I don't understand why it's ever necessary to even say that someone's post or opinion is stupid. People could say: "your post doesn't make sense to me" or simply "I disagree with your post" or "I disagree with your logic" etc. Why should it ever be necessary to insult other people and their opinions? Why is it ever necessary to judge other people and their opinions? (ha, ha, I feel like I could be asking these questions to my ex-fiancee'. I think there are just two types of people in the world. Those who think they know absolutely what is right and intelligent; and those who don't think we know absolute answers. Maybe there should be two different forums for these people, but then it probably wouldn't be very interesting.)

Sad story. You should make a thread about it.
 
I think there are very few guys who can stop the top offensive centers one on one. I understand that our philosophy is not to give up threes so we never double. But it seems we could identify certain centers who don't pass well or certain centers who don't normally pass once they put the ball on the floor and we could double down occasionally. Or when we are playing a team that has one guy with no offense (Cory Brewer?) and let his man help out. Or just double for two consecutive possessions randomly; anything so we wouldn't be so predictable on defense.

I've thought this several times. You don't have to double every time or every other time, but if you do it at random then the post player never knows when it's coming and is more inclined to rush his shot. I buy into the idea that we don't doubleteam as a rule, but there's a very good strategy of avoiding predictability.

It's a process. They did it against Josh Smith near the end of the game. He never saw it coming. I think the team just needs more practice at this point.
