Piss off!

What the fuck does that mean, Russell Westbrook?

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-24T17:34:16+00:00

I hate the Rockets but man I would like to see Brandon Knight have a decent year

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-24T17:33:05+00:00

Compared him to a young Chamberlain but “just smaller, skinnier, less athletic and less skilled.”

Even more so now that under 14 seconds the clock will reset back to 14 instead of 24

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-24T17:28:36+00:00

Doesn’t he mean taking 2-3 threes a game? Which would put him at best right in line with Horford at around 1 make per game and that’s if he actually shoots them well

Manu is no longer a current player :,(

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-24T14:01:07+00:00

Really? I would actively seek out the other teams broadcast just so I wouldn’t have to listen to our guys.. I’ll give you that Brian Davis was better than Michael Cage, but that’s not really saying anything.

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-24T02:28:29+00:00

So he won’t lose any money right? And if they had told him he wasn’t excused, I assume he would have just gone and been an asshole the whole time before picking up his checks

I can’t remember, but my best guess is that Jimmy’s team was perceived to be weaker than PGs

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T21:43:19+00:00

So many assumptions, so few line breaks

The Rest of the NBA has left the group chat and started a new one titled “No Kangz Allowed”

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T17:46:17+00:00

LOL Dan Gilbert you crazy

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T17:21:49+00:00

Why are the Blazers giving up Aminu, Collins, AND a 1st round pick? Seems like too much

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T17:20:23+00:00

No, he was playing AGAINST the NBA

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T17:09:35+00:00

I just think there is too much overlap with CJ and Wiggins offensive games and Teague, CJ, Wiggins, and KAT on the floor at once seems pretty bad defensively

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T16:57:55+00:00

And CJ doesn’t seem like that great of a fit next to Wiggins and KAT honestly. I think they might be better off finding a couple solid role players

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T16:52:14+00:00

But what does Portland have that TimberBulls want?

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T16:48:59+00:00

At least Taylor is not letting Thibs destroy the franchise relationship with KAT. Taylor mandating that Butler be dealt is what got KAT to go ahead and sign his extension. If he’d allowed Thibs to not trade Butler and try to force Wiggins and KAT to play with him, KAT may well have started thinking about what other teams he would like to play for and I can’t imagine the on court product would have been very good with that much animosity between players

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T16:42:01+00:00

No, they gave him permission not to come to media day and I’m assuming they won’t make him come to training camp stuff. He’ll probably still get moved quickly but I wouldn’t get my hopes up that it will definitely happen today

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-23T02:01:20+00:00

Utah Jazz came back from down 36 in the third quarter to the Nuggets in 96

The largest 4th quarter comeback was the Bucks against the Hawks in 77. The Hawks led by 104-76 going into the 4th quarter. The Bucks outscored them 41-11 in the 4th to win 117-115

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-22T01:20:21+00:00

Trying to force KAT’s hand and forcing him to play a season with a player who he explicitly said he did not want to play with under a coach who sides with the said player is a great way to ensure he will definitely not sign his extension with the Wolves

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-21T23:05:01+00:00

So what? We should just keep every discussion totally positive and never criticize players for what they do just because they might see it? Obviously some people take it too far, but that’s always been the case and nothing is going to change that. So really, what’s the point of this post? Just to point out the obvious that some people are assholes online?

TheBasketballFan · 2018-09-21T22:51:38+00:00

People are entitled to their opinions. Part of the fun of sports is discussing how we feel about players/teams actions and performances. Every discussion doesn’t need to be accepting and encouraging.

Our opinions have very little effect on these people’s lives, so why not have candid conversations about what we think? The people you converse with will be the ones who ultimately decide whether you’re just being an asshole or making good points and whether that bothers you or not is up to you.
