How is this relevant to the discussion of where are team stacks up in the year of 2018 compared to the rest of the Western Conference in the year of 2018...?
Yeah, you should try laughing.trust me, a lot of us are laughing while others seem to prefer crying.
It's relevant if you want a somewhat meaningful sample size. You can't judge a coach on one year. If the meaning of a nuclear missile were judged on one test firing, we'd never have an approved missile.
My point is we're the 7th or 8th best team in the west, just like we were last year.. and that had we had average injury luck, that's where we would've been, so the "3-seed" when we were 2 games ahead of 7th isn't really a valid reason to not make decisions because of our post-season disaster.
There you go talking shit and personally attacking me over a post I made that was only about basketball. I think you insulted me before that as well.
It's a natural inclination to reply in kind but I've never seen it do any good.There you go talking shit and personally attacking me over a post I made that was only about basketball. I think you insulted me before that as well.
So here ya go. You, in your natural form.
Your buddy quoted a post in regards to you that was simply about basketball and insulted me. Is that not wrong? Is it okay when he does it but not if I do it?
You need to meet him personally. He really is a nice guy up close and personal. In fact, I've never seen arguments break out among forum regulars no matter how much they bicker on line when they meet each other and shake hands.
I don't doubt that. HCP is the same way (or so I hear). I'm hyper-competitive when it comes to basketball. Other than that, I think I'm a pretty nice guy and I'm pretty chill (I realize that actually saying this can make it seem false) but I dunno... I never have a problem with anyone outside of basketball. I can be a bitch on the court though. And in regards to watching and analyzing it, I can be the same way.
I think you may have made a great argument why Olshey should be fired. You seem to be agreeing with a lot of people that Stotts is a terrible coach. And yet Olshey hasn't fired him. I was kind of on the fence myself about Olshey; and I didn't really want too much change at once. But now when I see he refuses to fire him, when there is a very good replacement in Budenholzer available, I think Olshey has to go.
What if Bones did think he knows more than Olshey and Stotts; why is that your concern?
Are you trying to psycho analyze us all here? We are "hung up", we are "cherry-pickers"; we "complain"; we have "no control"; we need to "hopefully lose the anger". Can we just talk basketball, please?
More name calling and personal insults. Why?but yet here you are speculating on how much I know. Where did you play college ball again? and how does that make you superior to me? I see it as making you a hypocrite. Popovich called as he needs some advice as he owns a winery and you seem to be a whine expert.
sure....losing the anger is a step towards achieving this.....habitual bitching isn't very constructive...baiting forum members even less so....talking about a thread topic gets lost along the way when certain people insist on making it personal on a daily basis....in my view, it's chased away some really entertaining forum members.
my guess would be responding to personal insults with insults is the reason
Couldn't resist getting in a little dig, could you? It's really getting old.

You talk to much shit. And that's coming from me.
Are you talking about HCP?
Exactly. Glad someone can see what I'm talking about.
You complain about the same stuff that you do. You contribute. You butt into every conversation I'm in just to complain. I have a problem with the way someone talks to me, I say something in response, you complain about said response, and then talk a lot of crap.
I'm aggressive when people are snarky, condescending, or have some sort of attitude. There's times when it's subtle, so others don't see what I see, but it's rarely because I disagree with them.
public forum...pot kettle black....you said you like it when I don't post here....that's pretty telling considering this post...I'll do us both a favor Bones...I'll just have to put you back on ignore...too bad really....I'm about done with this forum and this is why....it used to be fun to read these threads....adios....
I don't like when you constantly complain about me no matter how disrespectful somebody may be acting towards me. You ignore any context and it seems like you're literally just waiting for the chance to complain about me. I've tried bridging the gap. I've complimented your interesting life story, I've been polite to you, but look, I have to take shit from everyone who decides to dish it out, and if I ever have anything to say back, even if it's not insulting, you're right there to jump into it and complain about me. For example, in the other thread, someone was sarcastically implying false things about me, so i asked if he was trolling me, and you were right there to complain about me. But you know me, trying to diffuse the situation with me and you that you created, I said I'd stop talking about firing Terry and instead would attempt to be more positive and focus on things the team can improve on... And then you want to say I'm the reason why you're done with this forum?
Hold on......ANOTHER forum member is going to quit because of the jonesbones kid? AGAIN? That's like 2 in the past month. Go figure.
@SlyPokerDog ...listen to HCP if he can help retain posters the way he retains water this place will be awesome.
