Randle and RJ are the same damn player. Randle can be the better of the two losers if that makes you happy. Most of us are over it. There was a thread made specifically for this crybaby discussion that will not go away because trolls. It would help if that rule was followed because lately the crying is bleeding into every thread again. No one gives a shyt about either player. No one gives a shyt about last January anymore. No one cares about Frank/Obi etc anymore. Just the board cry baby troll. t's quite pathetic really.

that's simply untrue. there are people in this thread besides melo that feel the need to re-litigate this by **** on randle and propping rj up. which is why i said what i did. melo takes all the blame because he's the only one not pretending he isn't doing what he is doing. i can't with the self righteousness around here this year lol

They love playing victim lol sht is mad weird

Those were trash tanking teams that’s why. How do you not know the difference? This is a playoff team where the coach is running the starters into the dirt causing injuries before the playoffs… again. This is a false equivalency. Par for the course for Thibs stans

That 2017 team had Melo, KP, Derrick Rose, Noah, Lee. From the infamous they saying us and the Warriors are a superteam quote, they were not tanking. The next season they were competing for a playoff spot until KP got injured.

How are all these injuries from being run into the ground? Thibs haters foaming at the mouth again



Who was sayin that 2016-2017 was a super team on the level of the Warriors? I sure as hell wasn’t :lol:

You’re playing dumb with the injuries now? KAT n Hart’s knees aren’t an issue from overuse? OG’s foot injury after playing 40 mpg? lol

No. Hart's knee is structural not overuse. The knee cap comes out of its groove. Nothing to do with overuse.

I'm aware of this thread. There are others too though. There is a reason for the bitch thread. I just wish it would contain the garbage. Last game thread we had pages of it. Just general trolling always and the constant need to bring up Frank and Obi and etc etc etc as if any of that shyt matters. It's a friggin competition to be the biggest **** on RealGM? Have at it. Just take it to the mosh pit!

All season long he pretended like outside his 6.5 man rotation no one is playable....despite many suggesting Kolek could easily handle 10-15 minutes off the bench as a decent backup while sparing JB, Mikal,Hart some minutes....now that we see that Kolek is indeed a capable 10-15 minutes backup it is about damage control for Thibs.... With JB, Deuce and Payne out he still found a way to play Kolek only 17 minutes while he had the highest +/- on the team.

A guy that has produced 29 assists and only a single turnover !!!!!!!!!!! can't crack the 20 minutes....all while Payne, Wright and other scrubs can easily get to 30+ minutes.

Get Thibs out of here ASAP. He is killing the team in so many ways it's disgusting.


Obi was right.

Read on Twitter


Thibs is the kind of guy to bear a grudge and hold a player back. It doesn't mean the player did something way out of line, just that Thibs is stubborn and once you're grounded it takes other circumstances to unglue that player from the bench like it just happened with Brunson and Payne being out before he'd consider playing Kolek outside of 2 minutes of garbage time.

Derrick Rose said that! lol Maybe if they had old dinosaur Thibs they could have gotten somewhere, instead they had young modern gifted Derek Fisher that you preferred over Steve Kerr. :o You know how to pick coaches...for the other team

viewtopic.php?p=39726003#p39726003
Kerr strikes me as a guy who isn't the type to like the scrutiny and spotlight he'd be under in NYC. I think he got the justification he needed to turn down Jackson (which I'm sure was difficult) and go where he really wanted...the better team, money and most importantly... closer to his family.

I only accepted Kerr because I thought it was a done deal. The guy I wanted from day one was Fisher. Hopefully we get him.


KAT Hart and OG are all playing, really well too.

You and others literally derail every thread crying about your trash young players that you stanned. But you playing victim. I mean Iron is literally posting sound bites of Obi from years ago that dead ass nobody gives a fk about. Stop playing victim.
You sound emotional the Knicks started Delon over Kolekina and we won. Can’t relate.

I have enjoyed how free flowing the offense has been. JB has a tendency of holding the ball too long and looking off the first good pass to try and create for himself instead of letting the offense naturally break down the defense. If this team is going to be successful, it has to be as one cohesive unit.

Overall the offense was really starting to click but, it got stagnant leading up to and since the ASB. The bench never got on track due to injuries and no trust in anyone else. The defense was struggling. The injuries started hitting the starters as well. It has been a bit disjointed for a minute now.

9 games to work on things before the playoffs. No Brunson. No Deuce. No Payne. Thibs scrambling to figure out how use his bench after 70 games. It's an uphill run from here out IMO.

:lol: Damn you’re a genius. You go back 10 years when I was barely 30 picking between two former players who’ve never coached a day in their life before. Even Kerr co-signed that prediction saying recently he would’ve been fired within 2 years, just like Fisher. I went with Fisher because he at least had something on his resume relevant to the job (managing personalities) as president of the players union back then. All we knew about Kerr was that he was a failed GM. It was a losing situation for anyone really with Phil n the triangle. You should know that the way you went to bat for Hornacek back then….

Image




You even called 2017 a tank season :lol:



Regarding Ron Baker tho, weren’t you on that wagon too? See the above quote of you wanting to watch Baker play ahead of Rose and Jennings :lol:

Image


If you wanna dig for receipts, everyone has a dirty past…I mean look at these other takes…

Image
Image


Glass houses bra….

Also, KAT, Hart, and OG are playing well sure, but if you’ve ever played the game you know injuries like these have lingering effects… they don’t just magically disappear just because they don’t complain or show it day in and out.

And idgaf if Derrick Rose said that. He’s a player and his words in this context don’t carry much weight. Nobody on the outside looking in thought that. Except you I guess
