Wtf is wrong with Bill Walton?

[Labinot41]

I guess I was, unintentionally. I was just observing, this guy speaks street English. He didn't learn that in class, so he must have read American message boards for years.

(I took 5 years of French and couldn't have survived half a minute in a conversation in France or Quebec.)

Labinot, why do you have a French name in Germany? An expatriate?

Lol, i live 5 Miles Away from the French border, and my dad is half French half German, my mother is 100% German. I had english in school for 3 years, but that's 8 years ago and i forgot most. I know my english is Bad but im still Learning. Just wanted to know Why Bill Walton talked so much shit about the Blazers. Dude should put some respect on the Blazers, his Jersey is retired in the Arena and he sucks opponents dick

 

[jlprk]

Your English is very good, but if you ever travel here, maybe you'd better not talk to anyone...

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I went to Germany once

 

[SIeepwalker]

Lol, i live 5 Miles Away from the French border

[Labinot41]

Wow !! I guess I never thought about people in other parts of the world watching OUR Blazers..... AND LIKING THEM !! That's pretty dang cool. Welcome Labinot41 (who has 3 times as many posts as me heh heh )

 

[H.C.]

I think jlprk was giving Labinot a compliment.

Looked like a personal attack to me.
But then again so did this.

Second, you talk about dicks way too much it’s creepy

But what do I know.

well the NBA goes more and more international, especially European players came more in the NBA the last few years. You have fans from serbia who watch clippers, Kings and nuggets because of teodosic, bogdanovic and jokic, fans from greece watching bucks Games because of Antetokounmpo, fans from Lithuania watching knicks, pacers and raptors games because of porzingis, Sabonis and valanuinas, France=Ntilinka Gobert Fournier, Switzerland = Capela, Turkey = Kanter, croatia = dragic and saric, Bosnia = Nurkic and Bogdanovic. And there are many many other good Players

In the US they say that Ntilinka is Belge.

Well, NBA is miles ahead of every other American sport in Europe, and the world too. I would say that Celtics, Sixers and Lakers have most fans here, but it's quite clear why.

I believe you. Wiki says he's French. He plays for the French national team. ESPN, though (maybe b/c he was born in Belgium?) :

Frank Ntilikina Knicks (Belgium)
Guard | Grade: B
Game stats

6 PTS | 5 AST | 3 STL
Analysis
Given more opportunity to play point guard than he typically gets with the Knicks, Ntilikina handed out five assists in 18 minutes and showed his defensive potential with three steals.

i Really like Ntilinka, in 4-5 years he will be a Kawhi Leonard Type Player. Maybe not that good on offense, but on defense probably the best Defender from all guards.

 

[Optimistic Bob]

This thread has just moved into elite thread status !! And the only thing it has to do with Bill Walton..... is the winning the championship part !!

Been there

 

[BlazerWookee]

He's batshit crazy.

 

[Optimistic Bob]

Blazers are on the world wide viewing network !!

He was playing for my hometown team before going to the NBA !

Lol. I'd say that's more of an observation.

 

[stampedehero]

Bill initially was funny and made broadcasts entertaining. But he turned into a caricature of himself.

For the Warriors/Blazers game, it was like he well full Borat mode, not realizing he crossed the threshold of annoyance.

Still better than Hubie Brown.

Without Doubt Dick Vitale was/is the worst. Prefer Hubie Brown and his "coaching" rather than Walton and his I know it all bullshit.

 

[MarAzul]

He's batshit crazy.

You should have seen him when he came to visit my football team practice. He lived not far away so he took me up on an invite to stop by.
The big dude drove his Dasun, right out on the field so the kids could get a good look at him driving it.
The Datsun was pretty damn little if you remember and Bill had the front seat removed. He drove it sitting in the back seat of this two door car.
A bit of a strain getting out from back there, but he was a young fella then. The Kids just loved it.

 

[DreamKillah]

Walton is a confused douchebag. We were better off before he learned how to talk . . .

He's trying hard, but it's really difficult to be worse than Hubie Brown . . .

Yeah, me too. I was stationed in the Rhineland Pfalz (in Pirmasens) for three years 1967-1970.

 

[BrianFromWA]

Ramstein/Landstuhl.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Walton is a Blazer legend, but a terrible broadcaster. He's the worst one out there in my opinion.

 

[BlazerWookee]

Ramstein/Landstuhl.

Mainz-Finthen and Weisbaden for me. Spent a couple weeks in Baumholder.

Drove to Biche, France once on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.

 

[BBert]

It would help if Walton would actually make enlightening commentary about the actual game in progress in front of him. Instead he spends the entire game boisterously jock riding and felating the Warriors and showing off his encyclopedic knowledge about shit nobody gives a shit about. Biggest self important blow hard on the planet next to he who shall not be named.

I'm embarrassed he was ever a Blazer after the entire country was subjected to that pathetic demonstration.
