Official Around the NBA May 2019 Playoff Edition Thread!

Maybe people should stop talking shit to me. Crazy idea, I know. But its funny how this happens because people talk shit, and then other people think that talking shit will solve it. Comical.

Listen man. I don't have any kind of beef with you, so I hope you take this to heart.

If you want to make content for a living, which it seems like maybe that's where you're angling(?), you're going to have to develop some kind of thick skin. I wrote and covered the the NBA for 7 years, and you're going to have a ton of people hate your stuff and they'll tell you such. If you argue with all of them, it will affect you, and it will only hurt your brand. I have seen your videos. They're good.

Of course, you could just create an alt not tied to your videos and tell people to eat a dick

I dont care about random viewers/readers talking shit to me. I've had that happen. I laugh and dont make a big deal over it.

Its the people that I've known for years, defended against others, stood in their corner, who all of a sudden start attacking me and my personal life. That shit annoys me.

Thanks for the feedback and approaching me in a respectful way. I respect that.

Easter, Wednesday, night, early in the morning. It never stops.

Try going ONE fucking day without doing it. I dare you.

Eagerly awaiting you turning this around on me.

Actually, thats 3 days in about 3 weeks my guy. You're obviously keeping track, so maybe you should jot them down in a capendar next time?

 

[Natebishop3]

I call BS on that.

The key to this forum is knowing that I have the biggest penis out of all of you! Mrs HCP even agrees with me.

You don't have the biggest.... you have the longest..... but they call you pencil dick for a reason.

 

[BonesJones]

Alright, drama's over. If everyone hates it, then nobody will continue it!

Everyone needs to shut up and start making fun of Kyrie with me!

Yeah.... Dame only believes in the lizard people below the surface of the earth. That's MUCH better.

No way, SlyPokerHorse is way bigger

I've been saying he's overrated for years ! FOR YEARS !

 

[riverman]

I'd trade ET for Kyrie...somebody write a song about it!

 

[riverman]

Kyrie, like Lebron needs to be on a coachless team

 

[riverman]

He'll never be able to get downhill and make a defense pay

 

[crandc]

This was all set up for a Blazer fans wet dream and they fucked it all up.

Nothing to do with broken leg and separated shoulder.

His game is flat

Warriors can't wait two weeks. On the positive side, Cousins says he'll be back soon.

Personally i don't think Cousins is coming back soon enough. Rockets have to much for the Warriors without KD for 4 quarters. Yes the Warriors made some heroic plays and held off Houston in that game but they can't do it for an entire game.

 

[kjironman1]

Couldn't be worse then his defense on Milsap...

You have a point there.

 

[kjironman1]

He should have like 3 techs this quarter alone. There has to be a league mandate to give him a long leash. There is no other explanation.

Because Zach gets one for throwing his hands in the air? And Meyers gets a Flagrant 1 for a hard foul.

I think Houston will beat them by 10+ back at home but G7 is anyone's game really. I think they might try to rush Durant back for that. I don't know how long calf strain takes to recover from, seems any amount of time from 1 week to 6 weeks from previous.

 

[kjironman1]

I love Dame, but the first ever Point Center who has 4 triple doubles in the playoffs and is a Euro and who ESPN is slobbing all over is pretty marketable. They have actually scored almost the exact same amount of points in the playoffs, but the Center has more assists, rebounds, blocks, and wins.

The Euro part is huge also. The Blazers vs Denver series would have been pretty big in Europe if Nurk was playing. Not sure it has the same feel without him over there?

 

[kjironman1]

Jesus Christ man. EVERY FUCKING DAY! Does it EVER stop? Do you have a job? How do you have THIS much time in your life to do this EVERY FUCKING DAY?

Thinking there should be some way to make this the starting phrase on every thread of the forum? I have not seen such a toxic effect on a forum since JET. I know it's not him. That was like 10 years ago?
Well..... Come to think of it? Maybe Jet was 12?

 

[kjironman1]

Damn the Bucks are balanced. 7 players on double figures. Their coach is nice!

Their coach is going to be very solid for a long time.

Was Jet an olive guy?

Such a good post!

Many many years ago.

Kyrie, like Lebron needs another superstar next to him to go all the way (that's true of just about any superstar, tho).

 

[andalusian]

The Warriors without KD but with healthy Steph, Dray and Klay are still a great team - the real question now is - how healthy are Steph and Klay?

 

[Minstrel]

Kyrie is sooooooo overrated.

If Dame had that team and in the East, he would have at least made that series interesting.

Kyrie averaged 22 points off 40% shooting, 7.8 assists, 5 boards, 1.4 steals and he shot 33% from three this postseason.

Dame is averaging 30 ppg off 44.5% shooting, 6 assists, 4.4 rebounds, 2 steals, and 37.8% from three.

It's not even close. I don't understand how people can still think Kyrie is better than Dame. And this should HOPEFULLY put to bed the idea that Kyrie is better in the playoffs.

Also, Lillard plays some defense. Irving is best approximated by one of those chairs in a workout drill to dribble around.
