Game Thread Saturday , July 6th, 12:30 PM PT Blazers vs Pistons on ESPNU

[CupWizier]

Yes you are

I just don't get why you are on the attack with Bones all the time. I don't see you go after anyone else like you do him.

THERE WAS NO ATTACK IN MY POST.

I don't see you lecturing him as he argues with someone on a daily basis. Be consistent and as long as i ain't breaking any rules let me be or at least take it to pm so you don't muck up and derail a thread

 

[Blazers Roy]

They better figure out real quick that the Blazers need a PG because that kid ain't ready. Then they obviously better get another Center with the other open roster spot.
Blazers pinning a little too much hope on an Ant trying to play a mans game.

To be fair, that is exactly what the Hawks did with Young who looked the same in the last SL.
It's too bad we don't have the luxury of letting him adjust and learn from his mistakes.

I havent had any sort of argument with anyone this whole past week. "Daily" is hyperbolic. And sometimes I debate with people on basketball topics (its a basketball forum, after all) but I try not to insult, single out people, or hold grudges. I wish you'd do the same, since you seem to come out of the woodwork in every thread to take some sort of shot at me.

 

[Haakzilla]

CJ has handles for days....and blinders for weeks.

I am stealing this!!

 

[Orion Bailey]

So am i.

Sometimes opinions directed at other posters is better left unsaid though.

Something I'm continually learning myself.

We should all take a moment before hitting send and read posts directed at other posters and ask ourselves... will this be a positive contribution to the thread and/or conversation?

Obviously jokes aside anyhow.

I'm trying jennifer!

More than once i have typed multiple lines and then deleted them.

Be careful when you do this as this site has a auto save feature that will save portions of what you have written. You have to out think the site if you are going to delete stuff.
If you post always read what was posted after it posts because sometimes things you didn't want said will show up.

Let it go bro.
This is classic Cup.
You and I have had our discussions and even arguments but we always let it go.
Take it from a guy that has been around for a while on this issue.

Well we can hope right?

Never said you broke a rule. Just wondering why your on his case so much. Actually, I lecture him too when needed. I am very consistent.

So, you're on his case because you see him arguing with others and you are giving him a taste of his own medicine? Ok.

In the 3 on 3 practice thread....

Was this really called a game? No defense and jonesy is half kingspeeds age and allegedly 6 inches taller. Horrendous shooting and defense also. I would be embarrassed to brag about any of that as nobody earned bragging rights. It would be like me going and pitching in a little league game while playing college ball.

OB, I really think on this one you should just let it be and everyone can point to this thread next time he tries to play the victim card or he accuses others of attacking him. Everyone can see he came into this thread unprovoked and tried to make fun of Bones and has no interest in actually discussing the thread topic. It's what he does.

I already let it go. I made one post that shouldn 't have even been an issue and i see a bunch of people trying to keep it going. There was nothing negative in my post as i simply disagreed with his comment about Stotts offense and stated it made it to the WCF and told him i thought his hate for Stotts was hilatious. How is that an attack?

Where was i arguing with him? I made one post to him. That's all.

You came in the middle of a thread and responded to him and only him in this thread before it was pointed out. When you respond to him it is always some scathing or negative remark. I find it interesting.

I don't always agree with him either, but seems like you don't agree with him on everything. It's interesting. Again, not saying you broke a rule here.

I have been for the most part.

If I make just one post in a thread, saying you make idiotic, dipshit posts, but do it in 100 threads; do you think the other posters here are going to enjoy that???

BTW- I apologize for telling you to "get a life". I imagine you have a good one, like I hope everyone else here has. I should have said "grow up". Even at my age, I work on that, each and every day.....

The guy has over 36,000 posts and i doubt i have responded to more than 100. please tell me what was so objectional to my post

 

[Dougnsalem]

Just tell him to unignore me, and read posts #430 and 435. That should save everyone some time. (On the condition that I get put back on ignore....) Lol

I want Simons to become part of the guard rotation and get plenty of minutes. There was a deal made about having CJ and Dame play together as much as possible. What I want is for Simons to get to the level as fast as possible to where he is interchangeable and there is no consistent reason why Ant and Lillard aren’t just as good as Lillard and McCollum.
You win in the NBA (especially the playoffs) with talent.
CJ is good, but not great. We need to find out what Simons is. His skill level looks high, so to me the missing part to figuring that out is meaningful playing time, with the starters at times.
I don’t think anybody knows ,even the coach, what that player is capable of unless they get that chance.

The Blazers do not have the luxury of not giving him playing time.

Here i'll post it so he can read it!

Really? Aw well i tried. I don't do the ignore thing so i don't really know how it works. I'll take your word for it.
