I backed up why I thought the first one was funny, so I won't do that in this post.
The second point I found funny because it's tough to say he lucked into 15 rebounds when he's leading the nation in rebounding.
The third statement I found funny because there are plenty of players that are the tallest player on their teams, but don't lead the nation in rebounding. It implied that Beasley simply gets boards because he's tall, which definitely isn't the case.
I do respect people's opinions around here. I just happen to find how far people are willing to reach in order to knock Beasley down a peg or two funny. It seems like those that advocate picking someone other than Beasley at #1 tend to do so by tearing down Beasley, not by building up their guy (not exactly the most mature way to go about making their case, but whatever). That I find that funny isn't elitist.
I don't think my opinion is better than anybody else's around here. In some instances it's more correct, and in many other instances it's less correct. I should still be able to express it, and in this particular instance, it was that those three statements made me chuckle. There are holes in Beasley's game that can be used to make an argument against him. His rebounding and getting exasperated when his team is falling behind and he's not getting a chance to keep them in the game don't fall into that category.
People have made far more classless, elitist and immature posts than that one around here, but nobody gets bent out of shape because they realize that for the most part, it's all in good fun. Lighten up.
Laughing at someone's opinion is just straight disrespect, plain and simple. If you don't agree with me, post a counterargument or rebuttal.
It would not be fair for me to provide an analysis on Rose when I only watched him play for half a half. I watched nearly the entire K-State/Texas game.
The one thing I noticed about Rose is that he can get to the hoop but he ends up under the hoop which means he can't attempt a shot and he leaves his feet to kick out to the open shooter.
