It's kinda funny that the guy seeks validation from complete strangers. It'd be funny if it wasn't so pathetic...

I have no problem with ribbing him, but this statement is true for most everyone here. If we didn't care what others thought here, the discussions would suck. Validation may be a different level of that though.

I do too to be honest, but I guess to each, his own...

Just seems a tad weak, but that's my opinion...
I just can't look at you seriously as a sports fan who cheers on multiple teams, while criticizing other fanbases.

I mean, you can say what you want - he's played for crap organizations in terms of Minnesota and Chicago. In Miami, he's been two 3x conference finals and is now in his second NBA finals. The truth is in the pudding, Jimmy wasn't the problem. Lack of culture in the aforementioned organizations were.
Wolves can't be bad! For this to be true Butler would need to run a practice with the bench and destroy the starters or something. It would need to be so bad that KAT's entire career never fully recovers!

I honestly do feel a bit sorry for him
Save your sorrow for the starving children in Africa. Don't know what you're beef is but you and I are both midwesterners that should be on the same page. You're trying to fit in with surroundings so I get it...

I'm sure you're also looking forward to the new Foo Fighters album set to release this week.

I know you're joking, but the Wolves are a bad franchise. So bad I can't even use sarcasm.

Jesus.....too easy. You're from the same region as me, so you should be on the same (illogical) side as me, is the most grand bullshit I've probably read on this forum. Congrats idiot.

He was never a problem child. Jimmy has been Jimmy from day 1. He's the same guy now in Miami as he was in Chicago. The dude works hard and wants his teammates to work hard too. It's very MJ and Kobe like. The problem child narrative came from people talking to sources who didn't actually want to work at the level that's required to win which is the level he expects from everyone when he's out there on the court.
Exactly.

I am a long time fan of the Lions and the Timberwolves. As bad as each has been through history, I have never fully checked out of an entire Lions season like the Wolves drove me to. As a fan of 2 historically terrible franchises the Wolves are worse.

Hide Herro (6-5 & 195) on Gordon (6-8 & 235)? That's a mismatch the Nuggets could take advantage of. Herro isn't a low post player.
Gordon is not much of a post player.

You really think if the Heat put Herro on Gordon he'll stay in the corners? Can Herro limit Gordon's production in the low post? I have my doubts. And in the playoffs AG only averages 2.5 three's per game. It's not like the 3 is a big part of his game.
He shoots a lot of mid range jumpers.....

Meh, Foo Fighters are way past their prime (solid drummer hire though). Rival Sons though? Yes please.

Who cares. He played against a Superteam for most of those appearances. This isn't about KLove being a #1 or #2 or his legacy...regardless it's a pretty crazy stat
A meaningless stat that said nothing about Kevin Love lol
