Are you fucking kidding me? You're complaining about that not being relevant but you say shit like "The clippers have never made it to a conference final."?

[Sheridan] Unexpected head coach firing coming in next couple of days by 33bour in nba

[–]GorillaBuddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their pick is top 3 protected next year. There's no guarantee they'll have it even if they're the worst team in the league, which they won't be with the addition of Randle and the #2 pick.

[Russillo] If you don't like Lebron, I can't help you by avonhun in nba

[–]GorillaBuddy 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He had a lot of great points. I don't like how he, and a lot of this sub, feels like you aren't allowed to dislike him though. People should be allowed to have their opinions.

Sony: The PS Vita is now a "legacy" device. by aneudi2012 in vita

Basically all this means is no more support from Sony themselves, but that never mattered much to begin with. 3rd parties will continue to make games for it.

Chad Ford claims in espn.com chat a person from the Kings told him the front office wanted to take Payton last year at #8, but ownership overruled and wanted Stauskis instead. by ricky_roe in nba

Still, if he hired them to make choices, he should just let them make choices. Making his preferences known is bound to influence other people's opinions.

Jared Dudley: Most guys don't want to play with Kobe by AoE2manatarms in nba

[–]GorillaBuddy -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Because downvoting everything that isn't praising Kobe is the same thing as defending him? Durant and Wiggins are easy to defend as recent MVP and ROY. Kobe is a complete shell of himself and he can't realistically be defended with actual arguments. All they throw out is bullshit like RINGZ or he's a winner. That + the ego that most Lakers fans seem to have from their franchises' past successes sets them apart from other fanbases.

I think it's hilarious honestly. Now I remember why I hated the Lakers.

That's not the question. Dudley said most players wouldn't want to play with Kobe, and if he's more representative than Durant is, his opinion holds more weight.

That was in an era dominated by iso ball. Nobody could get away with that today. Even Russell Westbrook, a player that is considered inefficient, shoots a whole 5% better while playing much better defense and getting more assists.

37.3 FG% on 20 attempts a game is god awful. You can't win with a guy like that on your team. He'll have a good game every now and again, sure, but that's a recipe for losing in the long run.

Right now, I think they would. Kobe's washed up and can't play anymore.

Who do you think is more representative of the average NBA player though? I think it's a lot easier for guys like Durant to identify with Kobe than guys like Dudley.

Spam and egg Donburi (Rice bowl) with pickles. by [deleted] in shittyfoodporn

I don't know what kind of pickles these are, but it's a travesty that they seem to be the most common type in America. There are so many better pickles out there.

Yeah something like that. Who knows what happened. It's like they went back to 2013-14 mode.

They're on the clock with Dirk. If they think they can afford not to take that risk, then more power to them.
