You know Hank's willfully avoiding working if he's posting in the nba forum.

Every post is a referendum on how the board treats you. If you weren't wrong so often and then stopped acting like a douche in your wrongness, people wouldn't feel the need to pile on. Just my $0.02. Keep calm and carry on.

I don't think ltg is necessarily wrong about Ball.

But that column was horrible.

To be honest it took a couple of years before I really made it an issue. If it were more subtle i probably would let it roll but its obvious at this point what it is. I think MANY are upset because I have the stones to make it an issue. Every thing is a discredit and dismiss as opposed to simply disagreeing. That guy's points were actually relevant. They were much more relevant than the posts of a person that continuously insists that a guy is playing great when the entire world is saying and seeing otherwise. You and others refuse to call him on it because he is probably your posting comrade. As such it is necessary to find that safe space which is me. To be honest I'm going to keep calling people on their bullshit. That won't stop.


I don't mind disagreement but that isn't what this is and it has never been that for some. There is a need to constantly dismiss and discredit that is a bit disturbing. To be frank I'd be wrong by continuing to ignore it.

LTG goes too extremes too much, and that's why he'll end up wrong on Ball. Not everybody in the league is a stud or stinks. Lots of average, decent players in between those two extremes.

I think LTG is correct that Ball will likely not end up justifying his draft position, but I also think he's going to be better than a "journeyman". I agree his teammate Kuzma is better now and will probably have a better career, but that's not even really an insult, Kuzma would be top 3 if ROY voting was held today. He's really damn good.

I'm not reading the article but I've said for years here that triple doubles are overrated. They are a byproduct of usage rate as much as talent.

Shakes is no one's comrade. I don't know if there is a poster on the board that he hasn't told to fuck off. I also don't know the current NBA at all... If game 7 of the finals was being played in my backyard, I'd close the blinds.

I'm addressing the larger fact that you are just a stubborn old douche that likes to play the victim card to defend your opinions. You could say the sky is purple and when you got called out you'd say "Sure, go ahead and pile on. Quite frankly that's all this board is capable of." A lot of your opinions are bad. You think the board piles on you but in reality its just that you're so bad that people cant help but say something.

I have been right on far more things than I have ever been wrong about.

I have been right on far more things than I have ever been wrong about. If you read this particular thread alone it would be obvious what I am talking about. This guy came on game after game and told the world how great the kid was playing and received minimal brushback on it.

You claim to know little about basketball but you are expert enough to know that my "thoughts" are bad however. You don't recognize the contradiction in that particular statement? Basketball is really about the only thing that I post in these days yet you instinctively and reflexively know that my thoughts are bad? You wonder why I reference biases as much as often as I do.

He has far too many holes in his game for him ever to be a great player.

No, you post about politics quite a bit and are pretty idiotic about that.

I don't care about Lonzo Ball. I just saw you make another dipshit "poor me" post and I was bored enough to respond. This might be one of the 2% of times you are actually right.

yea cause Fox is just lighting it up this year. Shooting under 40% as well.

Live I've said since June. It's going to take 2-3 years to fully evaluate the draft class, especially the guys who play PG, the hardest position to play in the NBA.

If Blake stays healthy they are.

Good call ! LMAO! 9 losses in a row!

DB can make this post. You didn't say shit at the time so you cannot.

We ALL can laugh. Another terrible FF sports thought.

Fox v Ball tomorrow night

How's this working out. This casually interested non observer wants to know

Lavar's 15 minutes might be coming to an end.

I think he was on CNN this morning? And he will, unfortunately, still be able to find himself in front of the media even if he can't do it at Staples.

I wish he was gone.
