EtchenBa wrote:Once again, this was my thread, so I chose to go through all the replies. I can't magically predict whether or not a certain post is going to piss me off and then skip it. I don't "have a choice to just not read them" if I don't know exactly what they are in the first place. That's why I don't even bother with the current LeBron/Heat threads; I know what they are and I skip them. I don't do youtube comments, 4chan, and I even tend to avoid facebook comments, etc., so when a topic that I created with a specific purpose in mind contains mindless, cliched, and overdone bashing of two great NBA players, I feel that I'm allowed three ****ing sentences of cynicism. It's not like I was going to follow it up with anything. And of course I've seen a scroll button. You act as if you've never learned how to properly use hyperbole (not like I do either, that's why I don't use it). I was never as pissed off as you act like I was; I had three sentences of angst before you came along. I DO skip the entire thread if I know it's going to be full of "dumbassery" or if I know it's going to piss me off. I'm already doing exactly what you advise, like this from your last post: "And the funny thing is, like I've said before, instead of using that beautiful brain of yours to think of a new topic you'd like to discuss and let the simpletons have their fun." You didn't even address the fact that I said that I already do that. Are you just selectively ignoring certain things?

All the other stuff you're saying doesn't even matter...what are you trying to do, convince me to not be pissed, to let it go, to chill? The fact that you're telling me that the internet is made a variety of people who join forces to be very annoying is not a comfort at all; it certainly doesn't make them less annoying.

I get pissed at annoying people. I wrote three sentences demonstrating I was annoyed. Annoying people on the internet annoy me. My three sentences were warranted.

HOLY HELL. Calm down dude!

Kevin Martin

Do i have the ball?

No----> Run around the court through screens to create separation from the defender. Occasionally bump into somebody and fall down hoping for a foul call.


Yes, and there is separation between me and the defender-------> Shoot


Yes, and there is no separation between me and the defender--------> pumpfake


Did he bite on my pumpfake?

No------> keep pumpfaking

Shaq

Shooting a free throw


No - teamates are not short of breath

Yes -

lick top lip

lick bottom lip

repeat 5 times

palm ball with right hand

wipe the poring sweat off forehead with left hand (a true big man always sweats even after just a few secs of burn)

re-palm the ball with right hand to feel every crease and find the biggest one

quickly raise the ball with one hand

pull the ball closer to face and sight the basket like I am shooting a gun

bend knees and start the shooting motion

raise body and ....

don't shoot ... not yet

jerk body downward and forward but fight the forward motion that is nastier than Barkley's golf swing to stay behind the stripes

compensate for forward motion by adding backward motion to cancel it out... Big Shaq got this

now add upward motion and pitch the ball in

release ball without arc

if it goes in

I make them when they count

if it doesnt


Shift focus away from lousy free throw shooting in post game interview with witty comment / combination of comments about

bash big man

bash former teamate

bash Pat Riley

bash Jerry Buss

bash Master of panic and / or Dwigth

praise current teamate as all-time great, best in the game

statement never was Kobe feud

statement Shaq vs.

bash Eric Dampeer even though he is hardly in the league anymore

statement Superman

statement Duncan praise

statement about own greatness

Bash Riley-Buss-Phil Jackson-Kobe-Conditioning-Wade-Nash-LeBron-Mo-Dwigth-Stan-Dampeer-Queens-Bosh-the rules-state Mark Cuban is my homeboy-promote next social networking site--recruit AI to the Celtics in one single Shaq sized statement
Lakers are 22-3 in OT last 6 seasons:Kobe best OT closer!

Yes
---> Lebron should dribble once, take two steps and a crab shuffle and dunk. Note to Lebron: What Lebron does with the ball is no simple matter. Lebron must hold a one hour ESPN special on how Lebron decided to dunk. Fans must not know that Lebron had already planned to dunk before he got the ball.

No

Yes
---> If I'm getting single coverage, take a shot
---> If I'm getting double teamed, take a shot
---> If I'm getting triple teamed, take a fade away shot
---> If four guys are on me, take a fade away and stick out my bottom teeth like I'm awesome. People will associate me with this face like they do with MJ's tongue.
---> If five guys are on me, maybe pass it to Gasol. Nah, take the shot just to be safe.
