Am I doing it right? Does this feel constructive to you? Or insulting?

It's okay to be super bullish on your player. But its also okay for others to look at the bulk of his career and not just 30 games and wonder what his career looks like.

If you are right, we will all have to eat our crow.

I never said you can't be skeptical. I'm saying it's totally unrealistic for the team with the improving young player to discount that improvement in a trade.

You didn't. I was just trying to help that poster see how that comment reads if directed back at them. It's not helpful.

even if one disagrees strongly with tooskies points, they are making valid and constructive arguments. Some of the rebuttals are not. They are just you are an idiot if you don't love my player as much as me.

You sound like a broken record in every trade thread with a Wizards player. It's becoming predictable.

Yep. Chuck did a lot of great posts, despite being told not to.
