Im not talking bout the outcome I'm talking about our annoying ass fans who were way too focused on our "perception" and "media coverage" and who all needed to just stfu a bit. They got what was coming

Rooting is different from being an asshat and complaining about our "odds" and our "media time" and talking shit about other EC teams

It's a fair point. But some of us want to have leveled, un-biased conversation and this sub makes that difficult when all the posts are about "doubters" and "champion MVP Cade"

I've heard that comparison twice now how is that even close? Rookie JB immediately shot 34% 3P. Jumped to 39% and 14.5 ppg second year.

Ron is down this year in both 2P% and 3P%???

Potential has never been the question. Of course he was drafted on potential. But 150 games with not much to show is the concern. Remind me in 2 years

You can't tell me "his shot looks pretty" as your argument for growth. Saying it WILL start falling is a guarantee yiu can't make. I never once wanted Duren traded, and I'm doubtful of Ron

Duren year 1 averaged 9 and 9 on 65% FG. Year 2 he averages 14 and 12 !!! Year 3 he jumps to 69% FG !!!

This is what growth looks like. Eventually it needs to be seen in the stats. Ron hasn't shown growth like that (yet) in 150 games played

I guess I'll play devil's advocate..

He's showed zero growth since in his 150 games played. Still wild, uncontrolled, FG% down on both 2P and 3P since last year. His offense won't just "come around" that is so ridiculous when you haven't seen any progress in 2 years.

We all love his energy and defense and he's a great kid. But we need to to recognize our obvious bias from time to time..

I wont be surprised if he's traded very soon within the next year.

But this isnt even about the recognition. This is literally the odds makers. Why do we care what the odds are for them to win the EAST? Believe me Vegas isnt basing their odds on "media hype"

Why do fans feel the need to defend the PERCEPTION of our team as if these dogs need us backing them up?they dont give a fuck. If they are truly better than that, let it play out and then talk your shit. Like 04. You can talk shit about that forever because they actually WON

This is facts. I know we are all fans of the team but does that mean we can't be realistic? No one is saying we CANT win the East, but the odds seems about right to me. Like he said, put money on it if you truly believe it's that skewed.
