Is this a prelude of things to come?


Could he really make 1st Team All NBA?


All-NBA First Team

Rudy Gobert
LeBron James
Kawhi Leonard
Russell Westbrook
James Harden

All-NBA Second Team

Anthony Davis
Giannis Antetokounmpo
Kevin Durant
Stephen Curry
Isaiah Thomas

All-NBA Third Team

Nikola Jokic
Draymond Green
Gordon Hayward
John Wall
DeMar DeRozan


Hayward also made his 'Annual Best White Player in the NBA Award'.

Bill was the first national reporter at the time that hated Tyrone Corbin. It's a thing I've always liked about him.

A few people have said it now, Shannon Sharpe also said it here from 7.20min.


But he termed it differently, he said Hayward is the "Best American Boy White Player"... LOL.. emphasis on the AMERICAN BOY part... LOL!!!!!

Does Bill Simmons have an actual vote? And yes I think Rudy could make the All NBA first team. He'll be first or second for sure. I just finished my All NBA Team predictions last night.

First Team- G Russell Westbrook, G James Harden, F Kawhi Leonard, F Lebron James, C Rudy Gobert
Second Team- G Isaiah Thomas, G Stephen Curry, F Kevin Durant, F Giannis Antetokoumpo, C Anthony Davis
Third Team- G John Wall, G Demar Derozan, F Jimmy Butler, F Paul George, C Demarcus Cousins

I think it could go either way between Gobert and Davis for first and second team. And unfortunately I think Hayward is going to just barely be left out.

Yes I do think he'll get a vote. He's probably one of the first ones to get it.
 
"American boy white player" is ****ing horrible

Srsly Curry is a young God fearing apple pie sob but I guess he's too black to be an American boy.

Good god
 
He's also 100% squeaky clean American boy. (Obnoxiously so)

He even has the body of a boy

Well to be fair to Shannon Sharpe, he did say 'American Boy White Player'.


You need to satisfy all 4 factors to be termed that. You need to be:

1. American; and

2. Boy; and

3. White; and

4. Player.


Curry, unfortunately only satisfies 3 of the above (1, 2, and 4).
 
Thanks.



I just wish you could post like this in General Discussion as well (calmly and resonable)... LOL...

i am calmy and reasonable in general discusion. it is just that to you i am like "extreme right" so obviously my ideas offend you so it seems i am not reasonable or calm!

but for most we share our passion and love for utah jazz(although last few years corbin era, my passion has waned but it is building up again.

lets kut ssay differenc eof opinion and language barrier makes me seem not reasonable and calmly
 
That's what I thought too.. not sure what Salt13 meant in his post....

I got into this discussion with Cy, and he said that Curry's parents and grandparents are all black. I didn't check. But I'll just lazily assume he's right.

Being reasonable to me means being understanding of others views and ideas, regardless of one's own belief.


I don't mind that you're an 'extreme right', that's your belief. But being reasonable to me means you at least try to understand and accept that other people have their own beliefs as well, and that nobody is ever 100% right. Right or left, there is no right or wrong way, it's just a different way.

So that further supports that Curry isn't white, (or at least not 100% white), right?
