Now you are arguing about what Griffin did.......with Griffin.

Priceless.

Im questioning the timing, while adding common sense.
That’s arguing?

Funny how you and Wiggy ignore the question.

It’s like going to a car dealership, not agreeing to the price of the car.

Buying from a different dealer, then saying you had no interest in the original one.

No.

You are exaggerating the difference greatly.

The West was better. Especially from ‘11 to ‘14.

But, over the entire 8 year stretch, these were the average win totals per conference:

‘07: East- 38.9 West- 43.1 = 4.2 wins more for average West team
‘08: East- 38.8 West- 43.2 = 4.4 wins more for average West team
‘09: East- 41.4 West- 40.6 = .8 wins more for average East team
‘10: East- 39.6 West- 42.4 = 2.8 wins more for average West team

‘11: East- 38.6 West- 43.4 = 4.8 wins more for average West team
‘12: East- 31.6 West- 34.4 = 2.8 wins more for average West team
‘13: East- 38.5 West- 43.5 = 5 wins more for average West team
‘14: East- 37 West- 45. = 8 wins more for average West team

For a yearly average of 3.9 more wins for the West. Which is significant.

But, Bosh averaged 36.3 wins in his 7 seasons as a Raptor.

Meanwhile, Love, in the tougher conference averaged 24.4 wins over the 5 years he appeared in more than 20 games.

That is a difference 11.9 wins per season.

Like I said, the West was better. Not nearly better enough to explain this win difference.

While I will concede Love’s ‘14 Wolves probably make the East playoffs that year, that team was not as good as Bosh’s 47 win Atlantic division champion Raptor squad in ‘07.

And that year, the Raptors 2nd leading scorer was T.J. Ford at 14 PPG with Anthony Parker, Andrea Bargnani and Juan Dixon as the next 3 best scorers.

Love never had a season as good as that and that supporting cast probably isn’t as good as Love has this season in Cleveland.

Seriously. Jorge Garbajosa and Rasho Nesterovic were starters for that team.

Stop trying to say that because the West was a stronger conference it somehow makes up for the difference that Bosh was able to make in helping his team win a lot more games than Love ever did as a #1.

It does not.
so as I said, you were silly to say the West was not a lot better.

You want to say not enough to explain the difference? That's a different story. I don't completely agree, but it's a different story.

"you're really are mental?"

Please never change

The post you tried to start an argument when we agreed was you crying about me not thinking Bosh was all that when, in fact, I believe he is a star.

Do I really need to repost your comment again to which I replied? You really have a hard time keeping up with yourself


Fuck 50,000 other past posts of discussion, which was fine.
The topic is worn out, just like AD.
Hence, todays post of everyone is entitled to their opinion.
End of story, but you chose to keep going.

what timing are you arguing? The guy said he didn't want to stay and knew it for awhile. Had nothing to do with what he was offered.

Now today you have done the following.....
*started an argument with me on a topic on which I agreed with you
*claimed to know more about Griff's thought process than Griff.

Please never change.

As do I...bad matchup at times for him. Other studs will sit as well for stretches if it's a bad matchup.


So this great player they got, was needed to be off the court vs the one team they needed to beat?

He was on the court in the most crucial times of Game 7, a somewhat important game.

Are you saying because he's a bad matchup for a certain team he's not a great player?

I don't wonder....he also does not like having his opinions refuted with logic, facts or reason or being told he is factually wrong about a comment he makes.

It seems likely he just doesn't like you personally

Im guessing his wife and kid(s) have alot of planned functions without him.

Either that, or they take him and kill time watching him argue with anyone on his path.
