shump is the new landry

[Najeem27]

I said years ago that Ariza wouldn't be an allstar. I said Lin wouldnt amount to anything. and now i'm saying that Shumpert will be a role player at BEST! it's not that hard to see. he can't finish at the rim, he plays decent defense, he has no consistent jumper, his passes are all to wide open guys (no court vision) he's a bum in this league.

You're pulling **** out of your ass. Just stfu already with that bullcrap.

This board is FILLED with guys who drool all over mediocre players. I'm calling you out on it. Does it hurt?

Shump is mediocre!

Your calling everyone out in this thread.

Who's the stupid one?

There's a reason ur the only one.

so you'd admit you were a former banned poster? i guess we all know why you were banned, it's because you suck eggs.

abuse thou power, moderators

the only opinions worthy of saying are those on Knicks Forums??? WOW. No, I said Ariza sucked in private.... he sucked... in private...

Shumpert isn't as good as you'd wish.

That's my slogan of this thread. It's gonna haunt your dreams and ruin your days, i know.... but it's my opinion.

Shumpert wont be a star. He will just be a more talented Tony Allen. And that is very valuable. Shump has game and he plays great defense.

He is behind on his game overall this year but it will pick up. Give it 15 more games.

But Shump is not the new Landry. That is disgusting. Shump makes his jumpers.


He's a role player. A very good and charasmatic role player.

Again, to date Shump is shooting 46% from 3PT

EDIT: 41.2% if you include the Magic game

So your retort is devaluing the production (or lackthereof) due to small sample size. Which makes you a hypocritical moron. Because you're the same guy basing your argument that he sucks FIVE GAMES IN AFTER A RETURN FROM A TORN ACL.

LoL. Hard to argue with a well timed GIF.

But I'll try...


Message me...call me out...do anything to make me realize that Shumpert is a legitimate player in this league. His rookie season made him seem like he was some unstoppable force, but it's just that he was some guy who played decent D and his legacy got the best of him.

Wow... no... I'm not saying he's bad based on 5 games....

I'm saying he's bad based on every game he's played on national TV since he was born. He's not that good.

I'm on your team. I'm a Knicks fan. I want the Knicks to win. Shumpert will not help.

I like how you say Shumpert will be a role player as if that's a bad thing.

My opinion is he'll turn out to be a better version of Tony Allen. That's a quality role player.

And why bring Brewer into this? Brewer had a track record, Shump hasn't.

If you we're a Knicks fan, you would know that shump is great defender and player.

Yo, real talk...we talking about 5 basketball games. If all things were equal. If Shump wasn't coming off of an injury. If Shump wasn't coming off an extended layoff. If Shump wasn't in his 2nd season in the NBA. If all of those things AREN'T taken into account...

...we vigorously debating 5 basketball games



Even if by the grace of God you're right, it don't make your assertions any less moronic. You're basing this off a ROOKIE player, who didn't play summer league, had a shortened training camp, in a lockout shortened season, and even THAT season was shortened due to injury. He then missed an ENTIRE off-season of basketball activity to better his game and is now in his fifth game coming back from an ACL. The thought process on this is so anti-intellect that it's troubling. I'm doing my level best not to say anything that would get me banned, but you are surely challenging my resolve and restraint.

Things like this truly challenge my belief in the institutions of America that are charged with educating folk. Iman Shumpert has played 64 games in his NBA Career and we have people coming to conclusions on who he is as a player.

Christ...

Tell me what I should get. Tell me how you are an authority on basketball.

I already explained it you and you chose to ignore it. That's not my problem.

Nobody said I'm an authority on anything, but let's just say I've been right way more times than I've been wrong about the Knicks. Times when people insulted me to no end (kind of like they do now) and then ended up being painfully wrong. The worst part is the never apologized for their actions. All I did was state my opinion and I got treated with disrespect.

What you're doing is not even close to how I am. You're insisting on something and ignoring logic that would allow us to have a respectable discussion. And then you're insulting people like me for no reason on top of it. Not a smart move.
