On the general board there is a thread about knicks management being stunned and depressed about Durving going to the Nets.
Does having 2 non D playing max guys on the team sound good? Or cool? Not to me.
In all the years I've posted on this board, I've gone to the general board to read a few things, maybe 3 or 4 topics. I thought my head would explode from the concentrated doses of stupidity.
I ended up perma-banned from the General Board over the Summer, for taking a massive dookie all over Nets fans/a few other randoms that the Internet Janitors had to clean up. Mostly Mr. Dollar Bills, who kept crying that I better not report him (he definitely reported me, however.)
The bias/ignorance over there is breathtaking.
Thats an experience many of us know well, i had read only access on the GB for long, long time. Didnt bother for reinstatement until recently, once i maxed out my post counter.
For the years i had ROA, i just watched false narrative over false narrative.
Wrong perspectives.
The nba is an offensive league but D is king there.
D is king here but not all teams are as reliant on defense for success as NY.
My take stamina is the new defense in the nba. Being able to outlast is more important than defense that isn’t sustainable individually anymore. Top defenders have a 2-3 year window of top production before eventually falling off and start getting blown by.
