Austin Reaves is Todd from Wedding Crashers

[HurricaneDij39]

Noticing Reaves’ nerdy facial expressions during the Nuggets series led to drawing comparisons, so I googled “Austin Reaves Todd”. Came up with this…

Did we really need a thread for this, Caine?

Sure, there is a likeness.

But, Reaves Gonna have panties, by the BOATLOAD, thrown at him.

Like Todd’s painting, Celebration, Reaves conquests will be sexual and violent.

So, I’m guessing he’s good with it.

He is trying to get views and followers. I hope he doesn't do this on his blog, people will start unfollowing him and putting him on their block list.

I didn’t want to post this, because I got a real kick out of your Reaves analogy… Kudos on that.

But why is creating a thread a bad thing???

When I started on the CBS boards in 2007, it was the more new threads the better. Here in the 2020’s the culture is “the guy that creates the most threads is the guy that craves the most attention”.

So my question is, why did creating threads to generate new discussion suddenly become old school?

Because some things are post worthy and some things are thread worthy.

Using Austin Reaves as the example...

If you started a thread talking about if this run of really good play that he has been on since last year is sustainable like Ginobili or more of a "flash in the pan" like "Linsanity"...that would be thread worthy. It would invite discussion that lasts a few pages.

A tweet saying/showing that he looks like some character from a movie or tv show is post worthy since it doesn't really invite discussion...just some emoji reactions and a couple of comments.

Gotta agree with @trojanfan12 here @HurricaneDij39. It’s not about the quantity, but the quality. What you started this thread with should be an amusing post in a thread about Reaves, not something that starts discussion.
You used to post interesting insights and analysis, even if a little off from a lot of mainstream, but it seems you have gradually slipped into more biased posting about hating on the popular and mainstream instead of quality; and that is just attention grabbing. I understand that you have been the target of much abuse here, but the way to remedy that is not by making bad hate posts about their teams, it is to post quality, insightful material.

Yep. Jokic is Pete Boyle in Young Frankenstein.

What's funny to me is I watched Young Frankenstein last night

Always a good watch.

He gets to be a bit much for me at times, but Young Frankenstein is a fave.

How about Spaceballs?

Don't really need to see it again, it was on all the time on cable growing up.

I wasn’t even talking about this thread specifically, though.

Just take a quick glance on page one of this forum and observe the rough percentage of threads authored by yours truly… It’s obvious that this board generally doesn’t want new threads unless one frequents its camps inside the in-season or off-season mega threads.

I’m set to post my top 50 players in late September (been holding back for a Dame trade that probably won’t happen until February anyway), and the thread will likely be met with the same, tired “JV girls basketball” replies. I would say my critics for the blog are “misinformed”, but even that word would probably be giving them too much credit. They’re simply more or less likely just to make shit up about what I do with my blog…

Would like to see the CBS boards rise again. Not holding my breath, though. It would especially be nice to have a forum allowing others to tell hacks like Sam Quinn about the flaws in their analogy. And that’s probably why he blocked me - He found someone that frequently disagrees with him.
