The 2014-2015 NBA Season Thread. Lock It Up Please: The Golden State Warriors Are The Champions

[shoeking2101]

On a more serious note, been impressed with Trey Burke this preseason. He's better than I expected. And like the Clippers broadcasters were saying, he seems to have that "it" factor.

Working the game so I couldn't even see most of it but I agree on all of this with Trey Burke. Reminds me a little of Chris Paul honestly with his use of the pick and roll and his shooting and the pace in which he plays at. Completely turned around on him last year and I'm all on the Trey Burke bandwagon now. I think the world of his potential.

 

[shoeking2101]

His game is so obviously Chris Paul-influenced in so many ways.

I literally just said that haha my man

Burke was often compared to CP3 as a prospect and while the influence is apparent, I'm still not on his bandwagon in terms of becoming a special player. Think his ceiling is more Mike Conley type caliber, not that that's a bad thing at all.

How'd you guys all show up at the same time? The coX crew

While I was posting that I was thinking about what his ceiling could be. Mike Conley wouldn't be bad at all. 18 and 6 on a perennial 50 win team is very good. I too don't know if I can see "chris paul special" in the cards for him as a player. That's one of the greatest PG's of all time, and a consistent top 5 player in this league. Don't know if Trey's peak will be that. However, I know for sure he's much better than I thought he'd be and I'd be very comfortable with him as my lead guard going forward. I think you can build a winner with him at the one.

 

[kevin cleveland]

Yeah, he won't ever be nearly as good. Just a myriad of similarities. Process doesn't always equal result, you know?

I trust him, though.

Why would any superstar throw a punch & get suspended several games?

As a leader you can't let role players get you suspended.

Exactly my point.

He isn't and wasn't gonna do ****. Idk why guys like to act tough anyways. just ******* play ball.

 

[hood17]

I would for sure escalate things to fistacuffs tbh

Dog..you wear Uggs. You're doing nothing

Blake will swing on someone this season.

Jaque Vaugh is gone and I see George Karl coming back

Doesn't have anything to do with acting tough. If you get smacked in the face & you think the guy did it on purpose then your instinctual reaction is to take issue with that, whether you're from the hood or the suburbs.

Especially if you play in the paint for 8 consecutive months & get raked across the arms & face constantly.

stop making sense bro. You know the average NTer is just an internet thug and their typical confrontations usually consist of a couch and an xbox headset. They would'nt know what to do if someone actually laid the hands on em, ****** might turn into that one kid that every body knew that couldnt control his emotions and cried whenever he got mad lmao

Blake's an Oklahoma boy, and a mixed Oklahoma boy.
He's not going to back down but he's never going to throw a punch. He's used to it

He's too smart for that. Funk you pay me he says.

Call me soft, call me Uncle Tom, call me everything you are not,(usually why people call names) but call me Rich, successful and every other synonym that goes along with it.

Blake won

Only part that was a response to your post was "are you high" . What I wrote after was my own opinion and had nothing to do with what I quoted. Maybe your comprehension needs to be checked

 

[mr marcus]

And stop replacing "****" with "funk" ....get that Ned Flanders **** outta here

Staples realized that the only entertainment left in the arena is the red/white/blue so they blessed them with the theater lights.

The Lakers now deserve to play under the fluorescent lights that most LA Fitnesses carry around the country.

on a scale of 1 to 8 how satisfied are you with your job right now

I replaced **** with Funk so  cats (you obviously included) could understand the context in which I was speaking without playing Wheel of Fortune, which would perhaps sidetrack you from my original point I was making while you tried to fill the blanks on the 4 letter word, nah mean

Don't get mad at me for sizing you up for what you appear to be, nah mean

 

[mr marcus]

That post was hands down one of the dumbest post I've ever seen in this thread.

"He's mixed and OKLAHOMA tough" Lmaooo what!? It's exactly why I asked were you high cause it was that stupid. Trust me your post are elementary and I can get a child with learning disabilities to understand your basic *** opinions


And then you drop "uncle Tom" I don't know what race you are but you have issues. Serious issues and were probably sheltered under ya mother growing up.

"You can't cross the street" *** dude

 

[mr marcus]

Next time I'm on here from my computer I'll block you so I don't have to see your dumbass post from thread to thread.

 

[a-friend]

Just because you don't understand it, you call it stupid.

That'd be (taking your analogy) like a child in Elementary school calling his teacher dumb for understanding 2+2=4

If you don't understand something, its easier to say "are you high" as opposed to "can you explain what you mean"

Dumb cats don't want to understand, they want to clown folks because they don't understand. Nah mean
