Truth.
Freakish moment here as Whitehead got stepped on in the 'head' literally by Dieng... hope he's ok.

Minny continue to find ways to lose.
Every time i see Brook Lopez play i wonder why he doesn't average 25/12 and be an all star. Dunno what he does all the other games i don't see him play.

Yeah no idea how he doesnt average 12 rebounds a game when he hardly ever gets 10 rebounds in a game.

i mean going by his physical tools *******
When did being a big slow guy make you a good rebounder?

do you really enjoy spending your whole life being argumentative just for the sake of it .. You so consistently just ignore the general point of what someone says just to stir up some **** that you can involve yourself in and puff your chest out about regardless of accuracy. Your act is tired, I'm done with it, it's like bickering with my 10 year old.

You're wrong more often than not.
Just saying, there havent been very many dominant rebounders who are built like Lopez.
Brook Lopez, Roy Hibbert, Lamarcus Aldridge, Yao Ming, etc. Huge slow giants don't put up great rebounding numbers. They may be very good rebounders in terms of boxing out and reboudning rate, but they lack the speed to get out of area rebounds and snag the easy uncontested rebounds that really boost the stats. Sorry if I like being honest about basketball and not questioning why Lopez doesnt average 12 rebounds when that would be insane for him to do.
Just to level out your neediness:

ALso: Cleveland with a collective off-night against Atlanta. The Hawks accuracy doesn't reflect their shot selection and the Cavs 3p% was a result of many open or semi-contested 3s being missed by usually good shooters. Hawks played hard though and deserved it considering the circumstances.
Another thing I really hate and saw twice tonight is how the rules are concering injured players. I think they're the same in NBA and FIBA.
When Gorgui Dieng landed on Whitehead's face, he knew that he didn't land on the floor. Why not signal that something happened?
Ppl always talk about how sports should teach kids real life ethics and stuff. Maybe the ethics in America are vastly different, but in Germany you're obliged to reach someone in trouble a helping hand to the best of your ability. When Dieng causes the potential injury himself and knows something didn't feel right, I think it's ****ed up to not even look at the guy you just stepped on and signal the referee immediately that something could've happened.
Similar thing happened to Muscala who fell on his back after a put back. Those falls can result in heavy injuries. But the rules stating that play is interrupted when your team has possession or when the referees decides to initate it. It's really weird to me.
