GT: Spurs vs. Hornets

[SinJackal]

I just dont get why SinJackal has to be so combative in his responses. Presenting an alternative argument is fine, but no need to go after the other posters. Just play the ball man.

I only speak combative when other posters insult me as a talking point, or spread false information. In fact, the only "negative" thing I said about anyone was Ballingz, and all I did was say the exact same thing he did to me back to him. So you really can't justifiably flay me for that.

Did sjax steal your bike or something once upon a time lol ??

So, anyone who doesn't post a positive observation of Jackson must mean that Jackson stole their bikes and they hate them for it? Okay, makes perfect sense.

I actually don't care, chap... didn't even bother reading another one of your weirdly long posts already knew the nature of it, and a saw a few bits of it

If you didn't, you wouldn't keep replying. You just wish I'd think you didn't care, so you're telling me, as if it means anything. Your refusal to reply just proves you've given up due to losing the debate. It doesn't matter what weak excuse you came up with, you still lost, and gave up.

So far, Jax has provided a different element than what Jefferson was bringing to the team. That's my conclusion on the comparision.

I agree, andI said that to begin with. I also said different isn't better. Which is a point which seems to be lost on you. Don't worry, this time I didn't type too much because I know your brain can't process too much information at once. Kinda like a really slow, obsolete computer that isn't capable of doing much of value.

SinJackal is right, the rest of the board is wrong. Okay, we got it.

SJax probably hit on his girl or something. He mad.

Another lame comment by someone with no argument. I already replied to one just like it.

Replace "stole their bikes" with "hit on their girl". 3rd grade called, they want their jokes back.

Don't read my posts if you don't like them. You never seem to post anything worth reading imo anyway, so I think I'll live without your useless replies.

Shots fired! SinJackal mad!!!

My post was an attempt to make your continued posts against Jackson seem trivial and I was insinuating that you must have a grudge for the concerted effort you have put into this continued effort drag jacksons name through the mud.
So not a serious attempt at rebuttle, just an attempt at using humor to dismiss your argument.

It laughable seeing as vast majority of the board agree with your statistical analysis of the situation.
But since Jefferson landed here he has been a perennial disappointment. A square peg in a round hole.
Jackson may have inferior stats but brings other intangibles that Jefferson simply didn't show in out system.

How about this for a stat, seeing as you adore them so much.

Rings: Jackson 1
Jefferson 0
He is a proven winner previously here in San Antonio and amongst other things is a crowd favorite player, or at least more popular than Jefferson after his lackluster tenure here.
That is it essentially boils down to, Jefferson didn't work here, after all the promise he should in successful seasons with the nets, he became a spot up shooter, we already had one of them that played all NBA level defense. We just retired his jersey...
Jackson is a player we have had here before, a player that worked well in our system and a player that provided things that don't always show on a stat sheet.

Jackson also served as a primary option on offense for several of the teams he went to, so you would have to assume he is capable of creating his own shot. Something Jefferson showed little ability to do.

He also provides a better option to guard Dirk, who we all know is going to be an obstacle if we want to go anywhere in the playoffs.

The simple fact is that the consensus here is that Jackson will provide a better fit here than Jefferson, an opinion shared by our front office, who have a much better perspective than you or I, otherwise they wouldn't have traded our pick in one of the deepest drafts in recent history.

You have made you point again and again...and again and... again and again, you're obviously an intelligent fan. Give the jackson v Jefferson argument a rest and if he does end up a downgrade you can give us a real big 'I told you so!'

[Donald Kaufman]

you're obviously an intelligent fan.

I see no evidence for that at all. His posts are long but that's no proof of anything other than he takes a long time to say something that could be said in a sentence or two. Plus his attitude is just way off. He needs to be taken down a peg or two, he comes into every thread guns blazing.

[SinJackal]

Shots fired! SinJackal mad!!!

You wish kid. I yawned when I read your weak post. That stuff might work on newbs, but not I. You're a neophyte at trolling. Not even close to being able to irritate me.

How about this for a stat, seeing as you adore them so much.

Rings: Jackson 1
Jefferson 0

Robert Horry has 7 rings. I guess that means he's better than Micheal Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, Shaq, Duncan, Bird, Chamberlain, etc.

More relevant stat: Jefferson's been to the Finals twice as the 6th and 3rd best player on his team. Jackson has been there once as the 7th best player on his team. Rings only matter in arguments when the player in questtion was a huge part of them. Not a 7th wheel. Otherwise, you're saying Jackson's better than any player who's never won a ring, and that list is gigantic.

You have made you point again and again...and again and... again and again, you're obviously an intelligent fan. Give the jackson v Jefferson argument a rest and if he does end up a downgrade you can give us a real big 'I told you so!'

I'll continue to talk about it as long as people keep talking to me about it. I'm not sure why you expect me to let everyone say their part and me say nothing back, when I don't feel what they're saying is very accurate or enough to dispell my argument. If that was the case, I wouldn't continue. But I am not seeing any information or arguments that are dispelling mine. So like I said, I will continue to talk about it as long as the argument is pressed. It's something to do, the convo on the team forum is otherwise pretty dead, so I don't see what the big deal is about it anyway.

I'd actually prefer he not be a downgrade. I don't want to be right about it, because if I'm wrong, Spurs profit. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean I'm going to lie to myself and pretend like he's great in every way and that the trade was a steal when it thus far looks like a lateral movement at best, and posisbly a small downgrade.

you're obviously an intelligent fan.

Also, Denial of something doesn't make it disappear. Blind yourself to the facts if you want, I couldn't care less. Your opinion means as much to me as an annoying child's.

I'm sure you wish I could be "taken down a peg or two", but you simply aren't bright enough to accomplish that. Your weak/bland one liners aren't getting you anywhere with me.

Likewise. I see nothing of value in your posts at all. No insight, just bile and anger. You're like a petulant child that shouts to be heard.

I find it hilarious that you're replying to all these posts within minutes. For someone who doesn't like my posts, you sure are eager to read and reply to them.

Poor level 1 troll; never posts anything worth reading, so in a desperate attempt to stay relevant he starts throwing around some baseless names.

[Donald Kaufman]

So much anger. Maybe you should look into yoga or some deep breathing techniques. I'm worried you might have a stroke or something. Can't be healthy to be so full of anger.

I was just surprised we won this game. We didn't seem to have energy. For one, I thought Parker was being passive to start the game. He wasn't aggresive and attack the rim. It's like he was going through the motions and just taking things easy. Defensively, even Vasquez ate him up. I remember most of the points that come in the first quarter was on Parker and the lifeless energy just happens to the entire team. It's not like New Orleans was playing well and we couldn't stop them. They were short handed and played with more energy. That's why they had a chance to beat us. We played good enough to beat a bad team.
