Are there actually people who you take seriously who would say "Kobe" over all of MJ, Lebron, Kareem or Bill? I have heard some say his name, but they all seem like the type of guys I wouldnt include in a braintrust solving world hunger problems.

Man you gotta let it go. You missed this one, no big deal.

Is he still a complete sieve on defense? Havent watched Lakers at all.

Why are we discussing Cody all the freaking time? Lets just stop blowing air to this topic until he gives us a reason to discuss him. I dont think he ever will, so Id rather NOT waste more time and energy. Taylor Hendricks should be discussed instead. He may as well be a bust but there is more...

How on earth do you manage to produce just 7 PRABS in 20 minutes in the G League? What the actual f***? Everyone else who stepped on the court in that game for the Stars had 8 or more points alone, and Cameron McGriff (idk even know who that guy is) had the second lowest PRABS number for the...

Id also like to make myself even more of a villain by pointing out that the mindset that rich people gather to decide the faith of the world is the most peasant mindset ever. I dont like playing couch psychology games, but my experience is that most rich people are very self-reliant and dont...

I dont think Hardy is absolved for our defensive issues and he has to be considered a part of the problem there. But FO selling any and all decent wing/PoA defenders we have had over these years has been more detrimental imo. In the 2023-24 January run we started Tech and Dunn and were quite...

Actually looking at that starting lineup turnover between 2022-23 and 2023-24 its actually pretty impressive we had such runs on both years. But to emphasize the point further. Counting out our guy Lauri, the amount of starts this season for those that Hardy had as main starters in those two...

In 2022-23 was a team that started Lauri, Mike Conley, Jordan Clarkson, Jarred Vanderbilt and Kelly Olynyk really supposed to be a team that goes 10-3? Or in 2023-23 a team that started Kris Dunn, Collin Sexton, John Collins, Lauri and Sinone Fontecchio? (That was the most common starting...

Easy to distinguish the two. Last year we tanked like crazy and other years we have only tanked after DL/ASB. Its like super apparent vased on record alone. Or so I thought.

Yeah ypu bring up Svi numbers but not Brices? Well done not doing what was asked but reverting to new straws. No one here is saying that Svi is great. But he is still better than Brice, and plays better within the system. Claiming that Hardy has unfounded favoritism towards a 28 yo no-name...

Do a more simple assessment used daily in business world: Risk assessment. If I succceed, I can theoretically gain lorn term benefit through a very complex earning model. If I fail, I lose all credibility, league loses billions of revenue, I personally get fired and eternally haunted by media...

You are trying strawman stuff with 1 game samples. Im not gonna tell you why the coach chose A or B in a single moment, but he isnt wrong in the big picture. Svi plays with higher energy, shoots better and executes Hardys preferred style of play better than Brice. Why dont you quote their...

Brice plays the wrong way. He cheats on defense, doesnt close out well, does absolute doghouse worthy things like helps on the strong side off of great shooters. Also he has shot worse this year than laat year and isnt a guy who plays with high energy. Is there any reason why Brice should play...

So they rig them to random ends then? Like every year they convene somewhere wearing hooded robes and decide the fate of the draft in a secret freemason society kind of way? No, its just strawman evidence to your confirmation bias because it fits your narrative. If they were to rig drafts, they...
