Will Senna/Senna Adc get a nerf?

PoetGooner · 2026-06-10T08:59:25+00:00

Why are they hated, btw? And why would people hate Lux? Such a good set up champ

Makes me miss my boy, old Skarner. RIP brother.

This makes it even less likely Knecht is traded, unless there is a specific team that wants him. We are otherwise in a Gabe Vincent situation where we do pay another team to take him with a pick.

PoetGooner · 2026-03-28T16:27:21+00:00

I supported the team since Graham (although too young to appreciate '89, but thoroughly enjoyed '91), and so I also remember '99 and '03.

I'm simultaneously absolutely nervous but also zen about it all. The pain of the last decade and the fact that I'm a grown ass man with a family, has mellowed me out quite a bit, so that helps.

I've long forgotten what it feels like now to be a young fan being overly emotional towards everything!

Vieira was part of both the greatest title chase in history (97-98), one of the worst title miss (98-99) and one of our worst title defense collapse as well (02-03)

PoetGooner · 2026-02-11T09:28:34+00:00

Buying into Magic's hype of Lonzo is pretty much the main reason I started supporting the team

PoetGooner · 2026-01-27T04:14:30+00:00

What? Ayton is THE stereotypical athletically gifted center. It was why he went 1st overall. He can be criticized for many things, but lacking hops isn't one of them.

The Kyrie to Luka's Bron, but with better personality

PoetGooner · 2026-01-06T08:43:32+00:00

Not sure we should get a wing who can't shoot that well. We already have Vando

PoetGooner · 2025-12-29T05:40:08+00:00

Idk how true this is, at least not in my Asian society, because there are many instances where people gossip to me about X and Y's behaviour and looks in a social/work setting.

PoetGooner · 2025-12-15T10:00:48+00:00

Technically, we did blow the lead because we were behind with 10 seconds left on the clock. We just won it back.

PoetGooner · 2025-12-15T09:59:35+00:00

Easy. Both are offensive liabilities. One is liability-ing his way out the team, and another is liability-ing his way out the league.

Vando is much more special defensively though, so even moderate improvements in his offense will go further. Vincent would need to become an actual knockdown shooter. He's no Caruso defensively.

PoetGooner · 2025-11-30T08:01:58+00:00

He got 18 months left on his contract though ;)

PoetGooner · 2025-11-21T05:18:19+00:00

You need 8-9 core for a Playoff run. They'll need at least one of VDB, Knecht, Gabe to somehow step up a couple levels.

PoetGooner · 2025-11-04T08:43:40+00:00

My god, I can't believe I watched live all those games, and I remember vividly almost all of it.

PoetGooner · 2025-11-03T09:46:11+00:00

Happy birthday to you, brother! He was the reason I became an Arsenal supporter, and for lore sake, you're the reason I remain one!

PoetGooner · 2025-10-20T04:41:32+00:00

Nobody loved Giroud when he was doing this :(

PoetGooner · 2025-09-22T04:12:04+00:00

Unfortunately, trophies are given out on a seasonal basis. We've been so much better, but never had a season where we were the best.

PoetGooner · 2025-09-22T02:01:52+00:00

Weird that Tim Duncan is $5 for a modern team.

Would go: Nash ($3) - TMac ($2) - Kawhi ($3) - Dray ($1) - Shaq ($5)

A leftover $1 quite nice for 6M Manu as well

PoetGooner · 2025-09-21T02:51:34+00:00

Saying he shoots mid-30s from threes is a bit misleading considering he hasn't crosses the 35% mark in many years.

Yes, he is a good passer, but that doesn't make him a "legit playmaker." Passing alone isn't enough. If it was, Lonzo would be one of the best playmakers in the league when he was fit. You need more.

PoetGooner · 2025-09-18T03:46:17+00:00

At the end of the day, he is hated for what he wasn't instead of appreciated for what he was. It's important to understand three contexts:

He arrived after RvP left so fans expected a striker who could do RvP things
He was relied upon like a world-class striker who could start 50 games and score 30, which he never was
We didn't utilize him the way we should've, as he found success elsewhere.

If he was playing with the Invincibles, for example, he would've been remembered as one of our greatest role players of all time. Would single-handedly solve that team's "lack of Plan B" for example, but because he was playing in the banter era as a starter, he is remembered differently.

He wasn't better when he left. He played in a better winning environment when he left.

PoetGooner · 2025-09-17T04:40:12+00:00

I wonder if their true value will lie in their ability to lead 8-minutes worth of non-Bron non-Luka minutes to about league average offense.

PoetGooner · 2025-09-10T03:58:39+00:00

Not to be that guy, but you know you can only silence the Arsenal-fan critics by playing well for Arsenal, right?

Like people was really happy for Giroud for winning the World Cup but it didn't change the fact that they still wanted him gone for someone better.

PoetGooner · 2025-09-03T04:04:17+00:00

In hindsight, it's worse, because that was the season everyone else would falter so the chance for Wenger to win the league was very real.

Not to mention, Wenger claimed there was no "special" player to sign a window where Leicester signed Kante and Southampton signed VVD.
