I'd rather have Tristan or Whiteside Poll

[tlance]

I said the average was the 8 seed in West was just under 10 more wins than 8 seed in East.....because it was.

If you are saying it's 3.9 wins for every team, you get that's a lot, right? That means the West was nearly 60 wins better overall than the East.

West vs. East is a bball topic. You made a foolish statement, and seem to want to double down on it, that the West was only a little better.

No.

You are choosing to debate semantics instead of basketball

Again.

Going on for many pages about the degree to how much better the West was. Which I agree they were better.

This is why people want to bang their heads against the wall when attempting to have a conversation with you.

 

[tlance]

tlance made an extreme comment? Call me shocked.

Call me shocked that you assholes made this into yet another Kevin Love argument.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Only one who doesn't get the East was weak back then seems to be @tlance

The difference, though, is unlike nearly all the players you mentined, was Bosh LED is team to the playoffs and was the unquestioned #1 guy on the team.

Look at me @TurnUpTheHeat defending Bosh.

I don’t care who you defend.
You act like peoples opinions are personal with you.

I prefer Bosh.
End of story.

To summarize.

Some agree;
West was better.
Bosh was better.

If someone thinks East or Love was better.
Great!!

 

[dtgold88]

Its fact, actually.
I don’t give a shit about your East vs West when comparing Love vs Bosh.

I think Bosh is better, whether you agree or not.

OK....I can understand that line of thinking as it's close IMO.

But you got all bent out of shape over my opinions of Bosh....even though I never claimed he was anything other than an exceptional player.

But you be you.

No....I am calling you out for a foolish observation when you claimed "the West was only slightly better than the East"

And instead of seeing the facts to support this and saying, "ya know what...the West clearly was a lot better than the East during that time" you do what you do. Go on for pages doubling down on your foolish comment.

 

[dtgold88]

pretty sure it was a non Cavalier fan who first brought up Love.

Doesn't mean you are required to make Extreme or foolish comments. Or maybe it does

 

[dtgold88]

@trojanfan12

Can we please start a Kevin Love catch all thread where the Cleveland homers can jerk off to him all they want and keep these stupid conversations off the main thread?

That way, when someone feels like disparaging Kevin Love they have a place to go.

I would guess that there are more posts about love on this thread than any other player by a wide margin. And that is just stupid.

Stupid is saying Bosh is far better or the West was only a little better than the East from 2006-2014

If you don't make stupid comments you wont get called on them...but, hey, you can cry semantics each time.

Says the guy who had a profanity laced namecalling meltdown when I disagreed with him.....even though I didn't really disagree.

But you be you.

Bent out of shape over an opinion?
Nope.
As pointed out to you, you confuse arguing with disagreeing.
Im sure a big % would pick Love.
I wouldn’t because I’ve personally watched Bosh so many times that I know he provided a ton more that isn’t seen on a stat sheet.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Maybe take a break, drive your wife to closest mall, then search for her in Erie in a few hours, so you quit polluting this thread with your daily nonsense?

 

[dtgold88]

always said there's a right way and a wrong way to come at people...

#thatcat'slivingproof

Better to "come at them" with a profanity laced name-calling meltdown because they don't agree with you......even though they agreed with you?

 

[tlance]

You bring up that quote every single post you make. Yet, you completely ignore the point behind it.

Bosh’s teams averaged almost 12 more wins than Love’s teams.

The West was 4 wins better than the East over that span.

Your analysis showed a 10 game disparity because you looked at 1 random data point, the 8 seed.

The difference was not that drastic, which I proved.

And again, the point is that the quality difference between the East and West does not explain the large gap in wins for the 2 players.

Which was the context of my original quote that you have now posted about 37 times.

And you are still arguing semantics.

 

[dtgold88]

I vote B, without hesitation.

Fuck you asshole!! why are you such a dick? Why did you say Kevin Love sucks and should be out of the league?

Better?

 

[dtgold88]

lol me too. but it WOULD explain a lot...

if true, that would be him and Hurricane, who admitted he had it back in our CBS days...

I'm not one who likes to call other adults forms of autistic or retared.

I'd go irrational for many. But that's me.

 

[dtgold88]

No.

They have different strengths to be sure. Their numbers are similar.

Bosh is a better player than Love because he isn’t a liability defensively.

Now move on.

By that "logic" any PG who plays solid D is better than Kyrie?

 

[shopson67]

By that "logic" any PG who plays solid D is better than Kyrie?

Any PG with similar stats that plays better defense is indeed better than Kyrie.

Tlance in 2018

Tlance today: There was barely a difference

 

[dtgold88]

lol be careful thats basically what hte idiot has said in the past!!!

I wonder how long someone jumps to the defense of that foolish comment and says it was "semantics".

In his defense, he said barely a difference from 2006-2014.

A foolish thing to say, but he didn't contradict his 2018 comment.

look at me being rational and objective and basing my comment on post and not poster.
