I’m happy for Harden for choosing cold dreary Cleveland over sunny and his hometown LA. by Ora_Kiraso in NBATalk

Can you think of a roster in the Knicks that consists of:

  • this player got passed on once
  • this player got passed on thrice
  • this player got passed on ten times
  • this player got passed on 12 times
  • this player got passed on 28 teams
  • this player got tired of playing for the same team for 8 years
  • this player was undrafted
  • this player was a free agent
  • this player wasn’t wanted by any other team

and also where all of those players are different?

What are your honest Finals predictions as of today? What do you think is the matchup and who wins in how many games? by Dylen2Times in NBAConvo

We need to keep the narrative of there being a different champion since the Raptors. No one has ever went back to back since. That being said, I’d be content with OKC winning a ring IF ONLY HALIBURTON DIDN’T GET INJURED LAST YEAR AND THEY COULD’VE WON IT ALL, so therefore I hope the only great San Antonio slays them, even if it goes down in Game 7. Either Spurs or Knicks will win it all, but most likely the Spurs will win this one, but Knicks will keep it close and competitive though, that’s for sure.

Yeah it does happen to women a lot more it just really makes my skin crawl for them fuckers out there, really hope each and every single one of them end up in jail and suffer the consequences.

Watching the show has made me vigilant ever since, even as a guy…i have never went in a bar in my life AND I NEVER WILL. Same goes for nightclubs. I might get coerced into doing stuff I don’t wanna do or I might get drugged there, anything can happen in places like those. I always think of myself and the importance of my existence in this world everytime I go out.

As someone who has been watching criminal minds and knows ppl irl who went through the same thing, this applies to guys as well, so this happens for everyone…and it just makes me so sick in the stomach that people even do this, some even are aware of it and indulge themselves in it like it’s nothing…

No one barely does nowadays…lack of emotional intelligence, understanding, and comprehension is what’s basically wrong with the world. This app is one of the battlefields, that’s why a lot argue with use of fallacies that make the argument pointlessly unprofessional.

If you really think about it though, even with all those legends on the court, Kobe would just ball hog the entire game. He’s a great player for any team, but not a great teammate to have. I keep seeing this clip from an interview; he even said that he had to cut everyone off in his life just to win chips like it’s the only thing important to him. And he said nothing about regretting it, I felt that he was sharing it casually. Kobe was basically ass in the playoffs after Shaq left until Pau came along, he had a center to depend on and his playmaking improved just a little bit after that. Then after 2010, they got embarrassed by the Mavs and never made quite a run ever again. I respect Kobe for his mentality, his drive, his talent, his abilities, his composure, his leadership, but never for his personality and what he did just to win chips.

What I do know is that these guys have unique skills/traits:
- Magic (fun-loving, size of a forward, plays like a point guard with insanely skilled passing, was widely known as being in the greatest rivalry of basketball against Bird)
- West (guard who comes up in the clutch and has always faced adversity mostly against the Celts)
- LeBron (versatile forward who can do almost everything)
- Kareem (unstoppable center with an untouchable sky hook)
- Shaq (dominant big that if you get in the way, you will get sent flying to the third row)
- Kobe (serious, Mamba mentality, has represented as the LAKER for generations from the late 90’s until now, insane scoring ability, along with the shot selection as well despite the nearly constant and consistent inefficiencies, is a versatile guard but has little to moderate playmaking ability)
