  1. Brozingis is a white Ralph Sampson with today's skillset that body type doesn't hold up well. eh. would be amazing if someone actually wanted to take him of your hands
  2. ahh the sweet caress of a moist sunny texas day after weeks of raining
  3. thats some fucking photo just up there with dream and our horns. damn damn damn
  4. some good discussion on here. been sour on the the greek freak in the playoffs for some time. no idea what to do to get him the right team. you need an elite iso player to win championships in the playoffs along with strong support everywhere else. lebron, kd, harden, doncic, etc. nets have fucking two of them and a potentail third in irving here and there. KD is a monster. never expected this level of agility and defense to come from him this late in his career. looking back at his higlights here it never showed that much, which is weird. or at least i never saw it here. sure he had his moments but his handles were not near as tight as they are now at 32 years old. was always a lethal shooter. him getting injured is the only way they don't win it all IMO. harden and irving are expendable in that regard, but probably not both at the same time.
  5. i stand by asseration that once we get enough meglomaniacs running around they eventually bump into each other and voila you get war. world war, whatever. i have fresh firsthand experience with someone like this. never interacted in the wild with anyone like this until just the past year or two. they are high functioning though, so not incompetent like trump, but nonetheless they are a vacuum of leadership. and we live in a society where that flourishes. and that is not sustainable as we know. what a la la
  6. i've been onboard to 10+ years on just saying F it and legally connecting working rights from panama north. just fucking stupid and inefficient to act as we are now, not to mention destructive to people's lives. i fucking love that part of the world and some decade or two ago travelled it regularly. it breaks my heart to know how miserable life is for people there that parents send their children on a gamble up north alone. just unreal it is that damn bad.
  7. always loved riley's quote on Bird If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save a game I'd choose Michael Jordan; If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save my life... I'd take Larry Bird.
  8. hmm I would think KD is the better shooter and iso player, while yes bird is a better facilitator. both are clutch but Larry is I think the most clutch, so I would give him that. I would take Bird I think, but KD is close. I like Bird's assholedness too, but as for KD the guy just wears on me. he is a bit of a sensitive dude and gets animated and emotional in all the wrong spots. likely unpop opinion on this board
  9. exactly, he is terrible. shit i could outrebound him any day
  10. good lord man its a fun convo, no need to freak out. shaq lacked some element of work ethic. pretty sure this is commonly known. its doesn't immediately mean he is a big dumb body. splitting hairs on the internet of leendary players. relax
  11. great gameplan by the clippers to take luka outta rhythm
  12. so hard to judge Wilt IMO. lost when it mattered and teammates don't like him and/or pick him. that shows me some mental issues. Shaq had a bit of a 10 cent head as well. lazy, lacked leadership, etc. dream, duncan, russel, players like them (bigs) had such strong mental toughness and leadership skills which are underappreciated in defense basketball
  13. disagree. you can argue hakeen is GOAT defender regardless of position. and that is with the data (blocks and steals) + the base 3 levels of D. he was elite as a on ball post defender, great team defender (help/blocks/steals) and could switch and guard almost any wing/forward. only Wilt or KAJ can claim anywhere as near two-way dominance with each of them greater legacy on offense than Hakeem. but hakeem holds his own still with the dream shake shaq was not a great defender nor a great rebounder. there is plenty of data to show that. he certainly was the most dominant on offense (maybe Wilt?) and that is somewhat a toss up as a equal body (yao) could shut him down. russel is elite D but not on offense. past that hard to comment on wilt and russel for obv reasons of not seeing them IMO defense is something so wildly misunderstood by the general public (not you Rex, just a passing comment). Hakeem took a fuckingn beating from Shaq in the 95 finals. go back and watch game 1 and.2 and watch the painful officiating while Shaq runs over Hakeem 3 times and gets called for traveling. lulz. Dream is playing remarkable on man post defense in this game, exerting shitons of energy, and playing point center for offense. he was the center of each side of play. over the course of the series hakeem took shaq out of the game offensively. shaq's numbers came in trash time and/or on clear plays where Dream was in rotation (put back dunks, etc) to me - to the OP - the answer is Jordan for the reasons @shadow_operative says on page one. mental + skill is the 1 person different than the rest
  14. I am glad we devoted an entire page and a half to sucking fauci's dick over the entire course of this pandemic. I really feel like it could have been 3 pages. can we go back in time do I can try this shit again. I could at least put some better gifs in this thread before the simpletons discovered teamwork
  15. forget it Marge its emails again Fauci is a saint? did I just read that victimhood from our right leaning friends? this fucking thread was 2 fucking pages long up until yesterday you weirdos. the world is complicated and we need to come together and learn and shit. FUCKING NO SHIT WHAT DO YOU WIN?
  16. good lord with the reffing here. calling this different on each end this quarter
  17. wait, did the kick go through 4 hands? #25 and #6? sure fucking looks like it from those two pics
  18. Christ people read between the lines! biden is clearly ready to pull the mask off at any moment!
  19. what about Protect and Serve....have we tried that one yet?
  20. i read that as half nippled jewish mother. shape shifting and all
