2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

Like I said, he's arguing semantics...

we all saw what went down. Dude went too far, bottom line...

Ok...what does that have to do with tlance not knowing the law?

 

[dtgold88]

It's not even close to valid.

It's a football field and none of your "examples" matter in the least as none of them take place on a football field.

As I said, heat of passion doesn't matter, provocation doesn't matter, there are no "mitigating circumstances".

Everyone who has ever played, knows that. A guy like Garrett, who has played long enough and well enough to get to the NFL, really knows it.

You can try to turn a football field into a courtroom all you want.

However, 95% of what happens during every play in a football game would be a criminal act of some sort if it happened off the field.

The reason none of your examples matter is because a football player is trained to deal with the things that happen on a football field.

A woman is not trained on how to react when she finds her husband fucking someone else.

As I said, the things that happened prior to Garrett swinging his helmet happen all the time. So Garrett has had all of those things (and worse) happen thousands of times since he first set foot on a football field.

He knew what the correct response was and didn't choose it.

So you think the "correct response" to finding your spouse having sex with another is kill the spouse?

wow.

 

[dtgold88]

For the record, Cleveland police stated that the matter was not being investigated because Randolph had not filed a criminal complaint. Otherwise that Garnett would be going to jail

was also said if he filed a complaint it was a misdemeanor.

 

[dtgold88]

Wiggy defending Garrett's reprehensible actions.....SMH.

Yeah...even though he said his suspension is deserved.

Thoughts on turnup comparing fan reaction to Garrett and fan reaction to Paterno/PSU?

 

[dtgold88]

He's happy with being a top 25ish player. Has no plans to ever get better.

I blame the front office and coaching staff. You have to help players improve their game.

This is 4th year (if you include the season he missed) with the organization and he still afraid to attempt shots out of the paint?

Agree 100%. Even guys who are awful shooters practice and then take occasional deep shots.

 

[dtgold88]

Although I agree, but at the same time Simmons should be going out during the offseason (which he obviously failed to do) and develop an outside shot. It's not unheard of of players actually adding skills to their overall game. I've said it before in another thread. The Sixers already have a top 10 player in Embiid, but their success as a team depends on Simmons and right now it looks like they'll fall short of their goal again because Simmons is not stepping his game up to the next level.

I would bet each of us can think of a player who was not much of an outside shooter or never took the 3 at all but became a decent one and/or added the 3 to his game.

For me off the top of my head it would be Nance Sr. who was never much of an outside shooter but became one later in his career. Z added the 3 to his game as well. TT has but not so sure if it takes from him.

 

[trojanfan12]

ah the usual.....wiggy (and probably now me) needs to drop it but not the one who mentioned it and also cannot let his absurd comment go.

and, yes, he did compare the actual acts by comparing the fanbases trying to justify the acts as being the same thing.

No he didn't. And you can stop with your blaming everyone elee bullshit too. In these asinine arguments that last for days and fuck up threads...you are the one common denominator.

Wiggy was smart enough to drop it. Let's see if you are.

I see you kept it going.

Self ban?

 

[msgkings322]

I see you kept it going.

Self ban?

Ever heard of suicide by cop? This looks like suicide self ban by mod

Kings beat Boston by 1

 

[flyerhawk]

Kings beat Boston by 1

Exciting ending.

 

[Gman]

All good things must come to an end... to the Boston early season win streak, though.

 

[Bolts]

When your team loses its always the refs fault

Well the NBA announced LeBron got away with an offensive foul at the end and it looked like Barnes could have been fouled on the final play but no call. The Kings could have played better but there are times when a bad/missed call impacts a close game like this.

 

[Bolts]

Kings have been really good this month, 5 wins and 2 close road losses to the Raps and Lakers. Big win today against Boston, Buddy Hield was on fire at the end.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

I see not much has changed...

 

[tducey]

Good win for the Kings today. I've always liked that team, be nice to see them get back to some sort of relevance.

 

[tlance]

what more than "Garrett's suspension is justified" do you want to hear from me for it to be reasonable? Because I am also able to add in the fact that Rudolph was the instigator not once, but twice?

and, no, I never for a second thought you'd see reason.

Do you ever find it ironic that EVERYONE who isn’t a Cleveland fan sees these things the same way? And that you are stuck on an island with 2 idiots?

That should tell you something.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

You tried to compare fans sticking up for a hit to the head to a guy who caused the fight and fans sticking up for years of child r*pe.

Own it.

Fuck Off It
Again, point was that some fans will defend the actions of anyone who is on their ‘team’.
Never compared the crimes, but anyone who defends either IMO is a fucking moron as far as both go.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Problem is I don't want you banned as you are free comedy, but if @trojanfan12 also wants to compare the PSU and Browns fan bases sticking of for their players for the acts he can join your foolishness.

Not a matter of wanting banned, but talk is cheap.
If you want to put words in my mouth to try to serve your purpose, then prove you believe what you are posting.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

you compared fans' reaction to an unnecessary hit to the head to the guy who started and continued the fight to fans' reaction to a coach allowing years of r*pe of his players.

Lie, dance, deflect, distort. You cannot get past this.

I compared fans defending disgusting actions.
Never compared the actions as of course one will land in jail for life, while the other just gets you thrown out of the NFL.
