Well it's absolutely assault. If you don't believe me, go do that to someone in public and let me know how it turns out.

Context is important. If someone is involved in a tussle and you peel them off the other person that way, it's likely regarded as restraint. That's significantly different than just jumping on some random dude's back in public.
 
We should make him an honorary member of the Jail Blazers.
Damn I didn’t know they could get ya for committing the crime AND for planning on committing the crime.

So you should punish people for posting personal insults AND for thinking about posting personal insults!
 
So just saw this…..
NON-BIGS with over 20 blocks and 15 steals in their first 12 career games……
Michael Jordan and Asur Thompson.
 
And he's still healthy. Did the Blazers miss here?
Some certainly thought he would have been the player to target.

Honestly, everything I've read about Ausar suggests that he's got everything needed to be an effective if not outstanding point guard. I'm starting to think he might actually be the perfect complement to Ant and Shae.

Henderson was the right pick, though I'd probably have preferred to trade down with Detroit and get Ausar.
 
Chet missed last year.
Are we comparing scoot to Chet and Wemby?
Nah you wouldn’t want to go there.
Chet is almost two full years older than Scoot.

I still think point guard is better infinitely harder to play than power forward. Especially for a dude who is 7’5 or 7’1.

calling a player a miss thru 5 games and guy is injured might be a really stupid take?

and i'm not calling you stupid, I'm just asking the question about whether it's a really stupid take. so i'm absolved.

No.
Very well documented that Bigs take three to four years to get their game in order.
Footwork, Fouls, positioning as well as ball handling shooting and outlet passes.
Not saying PG is easy but it’s not what 7 footers need to learn.

I said he missed last year not that he is a miss?

you implied that not drafting ausar was a miss—or that drafting scoot was a miss...

(full disclosure—I was team thompson twins throughout the draft process but it's crazy early to litigate scoot's nba success in the league like that, lol)
 
Lakers Always interested, always want to win Yadda Yadda Yadda

Hope that LeBron championship is the last one they win in the next 15 years. I’d actually love to see the Lakers suck.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yeah, hopefully the Bulls don't give them a freebie trade. Too many teams keep saving the Lakers by taking basically nothing back in trades.
