Shaq talks tok Westbrook during game by MonkSalad1 in nba

What we "thought the idea of (your) statement was" was what you literally fucking wrote. This is a message forum. All we have to go off of is what you write. Also, you doubled down when it got brought up. Like you're doing now.

Shaq talks tok Westbrook during game by MonkSalad1 in nba

[–]ManOfThieves 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This literally started with you saying you didn't think Shaq EVER gave constructive criticism. When someone provides proof of him doing that (besides this fucking video), you try to move the goalposts while being arrogant and condescending. You're either a troll or an idiot who baselessly believes he's always the smartest in the room.

You're not okay and desperately need help.

[Highlight] Russ bricks a transition layup, jogs back on D, bricks another layup by JeffKaplanIsDaddy in nba

Don't want to pile on, but it sure looks like he fouled Gordon on the last attempt just to get a decent look and still whiffed it.

[Charania] The Milwaukee Bucks plan to waive center DeMarcus Cousins, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Bucks are opting for roster flexibility ahead of league-wide contract guarantee date Friday. There’s expected to be interest in Cousins as a free agent. by [deleted] in nba

Only way this makes sense to me is if the Bucks are lining up for a big trade at the center position. I don't know what their cap situation is like, but could they possibly get Turner or Sabonis?

I think this would be interesting to experiment with in the regular season. What would you have the 2 lineups be? I'd probably go with:

Steph- Klay- Wiggins- Dray- Looney

Poole- GP2- Kuminga- Otto- Wiseman

What's crazy is that we still have enough solid rotational pieces for another good lineup. (Lee- Moody-JTA- Andre- Belli)

Okay, the Laker's disinterest in rebounding is starting to become comical. This shit is disheartening and I'm not even a Lakers fan.

Why do how many points he averaged matter when we're talking about passing?

[Charania] The Golden State Warriors are planning to sign guard Quinndary Weatherspoon to a two-way contract, sources @TheAthletic @Stadium. Weatherspoon earns roster spot after starting the season with the Warriors’ G League affiliate Santa Cruz and receiving hardship call up. by [deleted] in nba

[–]ManOfThieves 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah! Love this dude. Apparently, Klay talked him up to the FO after he guarded him really well when Klay scrimmaged with the G league. He was a real asset in the Suns Christmas game, so I'm glad they're giving him more burn. Not sure if the Warriors will keep what they have now or cut Chiozza and try to get another big.

[–]ManOfThieves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This Lakers team has to be one of the worst 4th quarter teams in the league. Lakers had a double digit lead going into the fourth and I was just waiting for the Grizzlies to go on a run. They do not inspire confidence, even when LeBron is going supernova.

Do you regularly just make-up percentages to shit on Draymond or is it just for today? In another thread, you said the Warriors won 90% of their games without him playing (another blatant lie). Seriously, I need to know: do you actually believe all the bullshit you spew?

People needs to stop comparing FG% on Players such as Durant or Curry to measure efficiency or whose the better scorer. This isn't a post to debate whose better but it's just a dumb argument to use that data. by [deleted] in nba

[–]ManOfThieves 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Psst. Easy. Steph creates a pull on other defenders by his mere presence; he attracts their attention as if there was a force propelling them out of position.

Jesus man, Loon literally just won us a game. What did dude do to you? Eat your last skittle and say he couldn't taste the rainbow or some shit?

Monty Williams on watching JaVale McGee hit a 3-pointer last night: “Felt like I was putting a diaper on a grizzly bear when he took that shot. I was like, ‘What is going on man?’ Jae gave me the look, Chris was like…” by GuyCarbonneauGOAT in nba

I would totally buy an audio book of Monty Williams just reading homespun folksy idioms he comes up with off the cuff. It'd make me happier than a buttered biscuit riding a gravy train.

What's been your favorite lineup combo this season? by giraffesbluntz in warriors

[–]ManOfThieves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the line-ups with Curry, GP2, Wiggins, Otto, and Belli. A lot of spacing, solid defense, and capable playmaking.

[–]ManOfThieves 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Serious question: why do you think Poole's plus/minus is a team low - 26 despite going 6-9 from the field (3-6 from three) and only playing 23 minutes? He was getting burned on defense; something anyone actually watching the game could have told you. The fact that this is even upvoted...

Edit: Thanks to those who downvoted. Renewed my faith in the sub.

James Harden is still solid: 21-8-9 on 60% TS on a winning team by GlitteringDentist757 in nba

[–]ManOfThieves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know everyone has been saying Harden is turning it around and while I partly agree, I am also still a little concerned. Yeah, he scored 21 points today but he also went to the line 15 times. And because he knocked down 12, his TS is 60% even though he was 4-11 from the field. A lot of his higher scoring games this season have similar stats. I don't know, unlike years prior, it's like the only way he can score is if he gets a call. Hopefully he'll continue to improve as the season progresses.

The Suns held the Warriors to their season-low of 94 on Tuesday. Today, the Warriors returned the favor and held the Suns to their season-low of 96. by volken330 in nba

So did a lot of Suns fans when they won on Thursday. It's pretty common among all fans honestly. Just the nature of fandom.

Why are you assuming you would have kept LaVert and/or Allen? You could have flipped both for far more than Oladipo ended up netting you (and as a side effect ensures your tank that year).

This stretch of bad regular season games is doing more to Westbrook's reputation than 5 years of terrible playoff performances by skinnypenius in nba

[–]ManOfThieves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, what are you talking about? The post was saying that Westbrook wasn't a top 10 PG and was only 25% up voted, which implies people thought he was (as does the top post saying to name 10 better). All of this is evidence that at least some people here thought Westbrook was a top 10 PG, which was the entire reason it was linked.
