2021-2022 NBA Season

There is never any reason to get ejected over a disagreement about a foil

I think it depends on the type of foil. I could see getting ejected over regular foil, that shit is way to flimsy. Gotta use the heavy duty kind.

There were many who didn't. There were other options other than letting him go and likely still paying most of his salary to go play for someone else.

Pretty sure it was me who suggested it before the Season started.

Cavs fans didn't see a need for it before seeing how everyone fit on the court.

Hey, what's the scuttlebutt on K Love?

Do you foresee a buyout?

I think if you aren't in contention for at least the play in, they just might consider it.

Bet he ends up in Portland, if Dame is still there.

Whose taking that contract?

Be cool if he could go back to OKC.

Can't say I disagree with much of these

I was definitely on the buy him out bus.

Not because I didnt think he could play anymore.

I wanted the Lakers to sign him.

Portland, Lakers, Celtics and maybe Denver?

I feel for the Joker.

That MPJ max deal is looking....Horrific

It has just been national news lately how bad Beal has been. I have seen articles on national websites, ESPN, etc.

he is only 28 years old- not like he is old.

I understand that their fast start was a little bit of a mirage thanks to the schedule that htey played- but I would think Beal would be better than he has been- esp. since the trade has worked out so well otherwise.

I don’t know. He is obviously better than that.

If I had to guess, I would imagine that he probably isn’t completely comfortable with the new ball? That could have a significant impact on a player’s performance if they don’t feel fully confident.

Unless there is an unreported injury, that is the only thing I can imagine that makes sense. Normal slumps don’t last this long.

 

[tlance]

Or maybe you are a little sensitive? Guessing he knows Beal is a really good player and wondered why his shooting from 3 so far has been poor.

Ummm……

Have you ever interacted with Wiggy?

99% of his posts cover one or more of the following:

- A Cleveland team
- A specific player involved in a previous conversation with a poster he doesn’t like
- Mocking a favorite team of a poster he doesn’t like (Miami, LAL, Washington, Golden State)
- occasionally he will jump in to support a poster he does like

That is the list.

He definitely does not follow your “judge the post, not the poster rule”

So you saying if a player from Heat didn't get any calls in a game that he was getting mudded in you wouldn't have any issues at all? I seriously doubt that.

You argue enough to get a T then you leave it alone. You already got your point across with the 1st T

Might also explain why Curry is shooting more poorly than his usual % this year. That plus the refs allowing more physical play.

And to think up til this very second I thought you were alright. Wrong!!!!

Yeah...I really didn't think wiggy was alone at all in the need to wait. I think even many of his harshest critics figured might as well see how he fits in.

Well, other than those who wanted him on their own team for cheap.

comment 5713 was referring to you (and mecca, too, I think).

I have, in fact, interacted with wiggy a number of times. And, yes, we've gone back and forth when we do not agree (Jimmy Butler, for instance).

There are a handful of posters who I think are often beyond irrational......but I do not just assume each post is them being disagreeable without reading and understanding their post.

No matter what ya think of the guy he knows the sport and seems he would know Beal is a really good player and asked a genuine question about his struggles.

Maybe.

His 3 point volume is also at career high levels and 2 pointers are almost at career lows.

Just from the games I have seen he seems to be taking a lot of high difficulty 3s, like even more than I remember in years past.

Pretty amazing that he hits 40% of his 3s given the difficulty of his attempts.

Defenses have seen that just blanketing him with two defenders gives them a chance to beat them as well. That's why his shots are tougher lately. Maybe Klay will help with that.

And that is why I gave him a real response after he clarified.

He has posted 100 digs at the Wizards to attempt
To get under my skin for every legitimate post about them he has made.

So obviously I am going to assume it is a dig.

And his first comment definitely was.

It might have been.....but you seem to rip on your own team as much as anyone (usually for good reason).
