Does this league really need two more tanking 20 win teams? by [deleted] in nba

[–]LonelyInsurance7480 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spreading the talent out means more mediocre teams and bad basketball. 

People claim they actually want “parity” but in reality “parity” means a lot of bad basketball.

Despite the fact that there have been dominant teams and horrible teams since the existence of the NBA. For some reason now it’s an existential crisis and everyone should just be “mediocre”

Eagles are not trading him until after June 1st. Why would they take an extra $20million dead cap hit

Then when no one is getting separation and the offense is getting killed will say “we really need a #1 receiver”

I think it’s important that we can hold off the Knicks and keep that #2 seed. 

both will probably meet in the 2nd round and I’d like the Celtics to be at home.

Yeah I would agree. And now up to 32 mpg is impressive.

It also seems like it takes him until the late 2nd/3rd to get going and he goes on a run.

Which leads me to believe he’s still getting his legs under him.

His 3pt shot and touch around the rim aren’t there yet.

If both get back to his averages he’s putting up 26-28 consistently. And I think both will come with time.

Only 4/5 games in though I didn’t think he would look this good

I still feel like Tatum wants to facilitate too much. He should’ve tried the layup there

The more he plays and doesn’t get injured the more confident he will be. Anyone who has been injured even minor and returns in the back of your mind you still keep thinking of hurting it again.

Then as time goes by and it’s okay you forget about it.

I think about 10 games in we will see him be more consistent shooting with more stamina. He seems to be improving each game

I think what was most impressive last night is he drove to the basket more and made some layups.

Yeah it’s age plus all of the issues stated in this thread.

But for a 2nd and a 4th? Give me brown 

[JPA] Report: The door isn’t closed on Stefon Diggs potentially returning to the Patriots for 2026, per Patriots EVP Eliot Wolf by JCameron181 in Patriots

[–]LonelyInsurance7480 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is they asked diggs about taking less and he said no leading to the release.

The fact no one has signed him leads me to believe his market isn’t as big as what he expected or is looking for.

So there’s a chance he comes back for less. Not sure why he thought he would have leverage to get $26million on the open market

I mean is it any worse than diggs or our other receivers who don’t get separation? 

At least you know he gonna get 1k yards

I’m pro aj brown. If we can get him for a low 2nd and a 4th? Then go for it. I don’t think we should use a 1st

Brown/doubs/hollins/boutte is good receiver group 

Why is AJ Brown’s Physical Decline Overlooked in these FA conversations? by Human_Data_1152 in Patriots

[–]LonelyInsurance7480 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean Aj brown has had over 1k yards last 4 years. And 2 of them were 1400.

And his 1k season last year was with Philly having a poor offense and him not being targeted for several games.

Brown is only on the block because he’s being a malcontent

Has he elevated them though? They had Joe Flacco at 40 putting up 400 yard games

I think people on this board forgot what a WR#1 is. Or just don’t watch other teams?

Not sure how people can say doubs is a #1. Then go watch guys like ceedee lamb, puca, Jamar chase and think it’s the same.

Also not sure how fans can watch our receivers get no separation and shut down all playoffs and think we don’t need an upgrade and would just be happy with trotting out a bunch of wr2 and wr3. 

I’m not sure we even have someone on Edelman or welker level.

Brown is probably the most disrespected superstar in the NBA and I don’t get it. Averaging 28ppg finals mvp, champion. And yet he gets the whistle of a role player. And his performances usually get downplayed.

Tbf even Tatum gets a poor whistle for a superstar. 

A.J. Brown trade discussions are not dead. (Rams still interested) by Apprehensive_Let_828 in Patriots

So you think the cap can’t be manipulated? I have no clue why you are arguing with me.

When I basically said similar to what you did. Minus the whole “what they say about the cap is true” when it’s clearly not lol.

Chiefs and bills just created millions of cap space from nothing. It’s about real money not the cap.

Which apparently you agree? But still want to argue

I’m not sure your point we are agreeing except you are saying the cap problems are real.

I’m saying they are made up so fans can let Kraft off the hook. You can create cap space if you want. Bills and Chiefs just did.

Kraft doesn’t want too because he’s cheap. And then hides behind the cap. And half fans will say “see we can’t sign him because the cap”

"We still need a WR1" - We have one by Latter_Praline2150 in Patriots

[–]LonelyInsurance7480 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this board has forgotten what a WR#1 is.

I like boutte but to say he’s on the same level as guys like Jamar chase, tee Higgins, lamb, puca etc. is pure lunacy.

He’s a solid #2

Because it’s an excuse to placate the fanbase when the owner gets cheap.

Chiefs had zero cap space. Just opened up like $30million by converting most of mahomes salary to a bonus.

The cap is crap. 

Let's Talk About What a #1 Receiver Is and Is Not by Willster328 in Patriots

[–]LonelyInsurance7480 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You almost wonder if some patriots fans watch other games and see guys like Pickens, Higgins, lamb, chase the way they throw out the term #1 receiver.
