I do always get a kick out of people who make a big public show of saying they don't care

Like, clearly y'all live for the drama. We're sports fans, that's literally the whole point. If you didn't care, then you would just ignore it or have it handled in private

But it's all about needing attention, like dudes wanna be the Sun, think the world should revolve around them.
BaF Lakers:

Nikola Topic/Kasparas Jakucionis
VJ Edgecombe/Jrue Holiday
Shaedon Sharpe/Cedric Coward
Kyle Filipowski/Collin Murray-Boyles
Alex Sarr/Clint Capela

Bench: Malcolm Brogdon/Hansen Yang/Rocco Zikarsky/RJ Luis Jr.

With no complaints or rehashing. Guess I’m just build different. :dontknow:

Anyway, regarding TODAY every post I’ve made is in-bounds. We are allowed competitive banter that’s BaF related.

Like Kendrick Lamar Perkins says “…carry on!”

2010,
you can fool some but many of us know exactly what you're trying to do...
Like I said - keep my name out your mouth 2010 of I'm going to seek the opinions of others to see what they think about that gay slur you called me...

You chose your username, not me. :lol:

You can solicit whatever opinions you want. Again, no one’s shook of your threats to snitch. I’ve handled my prior suspension like a real one.

You can’t get someone punished twice for the same past offense. That attempt just goes to show how you really move.

good lets lock in how you feel then...

At this point you’re cluttering the page with your reposting of irrelevant things from the past (that have been addressed and dealt with by mods and the commish) to push your agenda.

That’s spamming for personal agenda-driven benefit.

Nah, didn't you hear? Every team is going to sign him. I had a GM refuse a deal because it would've added two dollars to their salary next year so I blame you for that.

Again, today’s commentary directed towards you and your team are in-bounds. You crying all over the board cuz you think I’m not allowed to talk smack about your team and it’s upcoming free agency dilemma.

No amount of goodwill by canoodling with all the other GMs daily and posting their players, will prevent them from bidding on Doncic. You should have managed your cap space better.

But at least you will have a good shot at winning the title this season. That’s better than taking no shot at all!

Just hope you get it this season, cuz if not, that window will be closed. You have no way of sustaining your current roster beyond this season.

You effectively chose AD over Doncic. I guess in BaF land, life imitates art. Is that you, Nico Harrison?

“Disrespectful” is subjective. You just might be one who’s overly sensitive, or soft :lol: when BaF smack is talked.

And you clapped back because of what he said today. You called him a scammer, liar etc etc.

What else needs to be said. You can easily be making fun of 2010 situation while he makes fun of yours.


That’s the part that’s killing me. You complaining instead of firing on 2010 squad.

You can literally stay inbound and bomb on him, but you would rather bring bish or rehash the past. Again 2010 got his own problems. He gave you the layup to fire on him and you don’t.

Agreed. Even Context trash talk about Amen and Wemby is inbounds. However, no more bringing up the past stuff that was out of bounds and people got banned for. It was handled, let's move forward.

So talk all the trash you want, I even encourage it. Just no derogatory or explicit terms. And yes, we should all know what those words are, no need to ask.

Nah, don’t threaten to quit. That’s the easy way out. I want to beat you in the playoffs. Then watch Doncic depart in free agency while you have to rebuild in order get back up to par with my Raptors.

You built a nice roster. I wanna see you do it again tho. :dontknow:
