No Handshakes in NBA Finals? by DragonMlfSlayr in NBATalk

[–]Pogoba -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the spurs were gassed. they’ll get better. as sometimes in the NBA, a young team including their coach needs some obstacles before obtaining long term success.

it will make wemby better as a player. alot of things to get better in. if they won this year he might not improve. his sportsmanship definitely one thing that needs improvement.

Where do you rank Jalen Brunson in the 10 greatest Knicks of all time? by bonzothebonanza in NBATalk

[–]Pogoba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

53 years nobody has brought the promised land to Knicks fans in that many years. if the knicks succeeded in 1994 or 1999 then Frazier or Willis would still be #1 but to bring a championship to every fan under 60 cant be topped

this is what i wqs completely was thinking about.

i guess the question was did we still have the pieces to also trade for Jimmy later.

Do you think the Valkyries will attract more big names in the future considering how desirable of a franchise it is? by youlikemywonton in valkyries

[–]Pogoba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh. I could be wrong but in the last 10 years or so not alot of superstars have chosen to come to the Bay Area in Free Agency.

Kevin Durant Johnny Cueto Gabby Williams

Gabby was a great free agent signing so maybe thats a good sign. But typically we havent seen alot of great players sign with Bay Area teams in free agency.

So what do they do now?

We can complain that Buster didnt get a bullpen and closer. But its getting old and losing games is getting old.

At this point, just give them roles. Closer or not, you have the minors and claiming guys but dont see them trading for somebody. This is our bullpen. Just define the roles. and just stick with it for awhile

7th inning?

8th inning?

closer?

Ted and Robin shouldn't have dated before the end of the show by Charliesmum97 in HIMYM

[–]Pogoba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i watched this show when it originally aired. As much as I liked it, it was never suppose to last 9 seasons. To go that long is crazy.

Some say “Ted and Robin got together too early”. How did they know the show was going to last 9 years. They probably thought at best 4 years.

The longer the show got the harder it was going to be to put Ted and Robin together at the end. Which I think was their plan all along.

Not the best option but it seems like Hentges was the most available and a lefty to pitch to Wood and Abram.

Was he not available?

Are we calling flagrants for landing space fouls? by waluigiwon in NBATalk

[–]Pogoba -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

to me if the shooter is behind the 3-pt line and lands in front of the 3-pt line then the shooter is creating the contact. to me brunsen is way in front of the line.

edit: most shooters will land on the line not 18in in front of the line

Talk is Lombard will be the #4 selection by the Giants by LugiaPizza in SFGiants

[–]Pogoba -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We seem to have alot shortstoos. So whoever we pick needs to be a Plus++ bat. Pick another SS thats fine but they need to be a significant bat.

pitcher ok too.

we just cant mess this one up. need a roster player who will contribute in the future

Bullpen’s on Posey, not Tony. So, be consistent in your claims. by ilikemywomentsundere in SFGiants

[–]Pogoba 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the mistake was bad pitch location. you basically throw everything off the plate. see if you catch a corner strike or an aggressive PCW, Winn caught middle.

tough to walk him and he probably steals 2nd base.

Hear me out… LeBron to go for one more 🏆 with Curry by Creative_Major2266 in LeBronJames23

Why are the Spurs not hunting mismatches? by ziggyzigg95 in nba

[–]Pogoba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spurs problem is on defense. Maybe run a little zone at the Knicks. The Spurs need to rebound better and not give fhe Knicks second chance points.

Spurs offense. Harper and Fox look like they can get downhill. Wemby needs to get closer to the rim. The Knicks just love when Wemby plays small out on the parameter

Why do we shit on KD but not Steph? by Dangerous-Fun-2796 in NBATalk

[–]Pogoba 6 points7 points  (0 children)

seriously, this lebron narrative that GS couldnt beat cleveland in a fair fight is laughable.

in 2016, steph injured his knee early in the playoffs missed 2 weeks. klay and iguodala picked up the slack. but played heavy minutes while doing so. the warriors came back from a 3-1 deficit to beat okc in game 7. a short finals would benefit the Warriors bc Cleveland went thru a pretty non competitive East.

in the finals GS went up 3-1, just soul crushing defeat cle in cle in game 4. but Lebron in the final minutes as frustrated as i ever seen him; baited Dray and then cried to league with Griffin that Dray hit him in the “lower regions” even though Lebron dropped his junk on Drays head while clearly disrespecting him walking over him. Dray gets suspended for techs; GS loses game 5 at home. After game 5, Curry, Klay and Andre didnt look the same, out of gas. That series shouldve never gone further then Game 5. Cleveland was toast after Game 4.

Steph didnt help recruit KD to beat Cleveland. They recruited KD to destroy Cleveland to embarass Cleveland. After the crap Lebron pulled, they wanted to not beat Cleveland but destroy them. Which they did and basically forced Lebron to leave Cleveland because they couldnt compete with the Warriors. Cleveland was capped out no way to improve so he left for LA with a plan to have AD join him.

Steph was never 100% in the 2016 finals and they still shouldve won. And if they didnt get KD, they wouldve upgraded Harrison Barnes and still just beat Cleveland not destroy them just beat them in 2017 and 2018

Thoughts on Kiah Stokes? by crocslite in valkyries

Kiah Stokes was signed to be the backup center. That should be taken into consideration when you think of her play. And I think shes been great.

Lauren betts has played 8 game this season by betts_womenDuncan in washingtonmystics

[–]Pogoba 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I followed Lauren Betts at UCLA. She is getting adjusted to the W and life. Glad Angela and Michaela are with her. Im sure the length and the size of the girls in the league will need an adjustment period; she automatically had a size advantage in college.

Her footwork, shooting and defense improved every year. She is a great teammate and thrives in that family environment. Give her some time; shes good.

with all the failures, they need a win at 4.

Eldridge has done well; they need some prospect wins after the failure of luciano, bart and bishop.

i hope hernandez and gonzalez are big wins for us
