It's really not just Shamms and Melo etc that are horrible people. It's 99% of the board.


I can’t help but wonder who you consider to be the 1%

For me it’s nbabrothers

Obi is showing more every time he plays. He just doesn't play enough.

True Obi definitely has improved on the defensive side. I really wish there was a way for him to get more minutes here cause we need to fully explore his upside offensively at his advanced age lol.

Unfortunately two of them, Fournier and Kemba, are older mercenary types of the kind Dolan likes, so could not enjoy.

Id love to be wrong I really would. I’m a Knicks fan so RJ being great is beneficial. I’m also a heavy Duke watcher and happened to follow RJ even before Duke when he was getting hype in high school. He looked like a once in a life time special prospect then. When he got to Duke he put up the stats but when I watched him play he didn’t resemble that same guy who got all the high school hype. Even in the college game his athleticism didn’t really stand out and he had ugly hero ball tendencies. It’s probably why I’m hardest on him most of the time. Didn’t really want him leading up to the 2019 draft.. I was praying hard for Zion or Ja

This is the result of Thibs forcing IQ and Burks as the primary PG for the bench. When Rose was running point, he got the defense to collapse and get other players wide open shots as well as alley oops. IQ and Burks just play for their own shots which has made the whole bench suffer. We're minimizing Rose's role for some reason

Sorry. I post there at times and he was banned in epic style a month ago.

ok please give us the full story, can't leave us hanging like that

also, anyone know if he was re-banned from him?


It involved heated beefs with several long term members, the usual length numbered posts and name calling, lots of nasty pm's to those guys and moderators inboxes and culminated in accusing the head mod or owner of using his wife's cancer as a sympathy ploy.
Really lit it all on fire at the end. I mean, he could be a little bonkers, but I liked some of it.
Trust me, he eradicated any of those feelings for anyone.


I'm not sure if caps were threatened to be busted into any asses like Wingo got .

I've always been a huge proponent for trading for a #1, but never if it costed RJ.

you don't trade a guy who showed you the type of year-over-year improvement that RJ did from year1-2 at his age. he's like 2 years younger than Obi.

Pull up Khris Middleton (still RJ's best comp). RJ is already producing at 21, numbers that took Middleton until 23-24 to produce. If RJ has another 2-3 years of significant improvement until he levels off, that is #2 type production with avg to elite defense at a wing position?

sorry you don't trade those type of guys away, you give them max contracts and thank the basketball gods you have a wing that can play 36mpg.

His dietician is actually his mom

I'm also pretty sure his personal trainer is his stepfather

Which seems not ideal, imo.

3 parts fat and add in some more fat. Then render the fat in fat and add more fat!

Zion could be a generational talent... but... he's fatter than Melo! He has about 12 more months in the league. He's Greg Oden and Roy combined? Can't remember Roy first name bit I know it's not Patrick.

RJ is gonna be a beast. I compared him to the importance of Pippen. After calling him a bust after 2 SL games! :lol: He's an all around baller.

Zion is a big fat pig with a 5 year lifespan in the NBA
