I'm a big dumb shitlib baby

Davis is a player that can do a lot of things. I'm just looking at impact. When you start talking best player then guys have to impact games and make other guys better. Chris Paul has done that his entire career. Look at Jordan and Redick. It's easy to say yeah they are better than other guys now. What about 2-3 years ago? Jordan would have been worse than Asik and Redick worse than Gordon or Evans. Hell he still is considered worse. He is just less injured.

In terms of coaching and management that can be a copout. Sometimes it's the coach most times guys are just not as good as people think. I don't think Monty Williams was a bad coach. Gentry is a middle of the road coach. I don't think coaching outweighs injuries or talent in this case or most cases.

San Antonio's defense looks a lot worse when Duncan doesn't play. Does Popovich all of sudden become a bad coach? No personnel is different. Talent trumps everything else. He gets a pass if all of those guys are injured for most of the year. If they are not then you have to look at him a little closer. He is obviously their franchise guy, but what does that get you is the question?

Hopefully he becomes tradeable.

Rose's post Allstar break averages: 26.0ppg, 5.7rpg , 4.7apg & shooting 57.4% from field. Long time guy wins again.

JJ Reddick is a lot better than Tyreke and Eric Gordon this year. DeAndre Jordan is a lot better than Asik. Jamal Crawford, Pierce, and Jeff Green are alot better than their equivalents on New Orleans. Doc is a lot better than Monty Williams was and Alvin Gentry is. These are all pretty cut and dry things that reasonable basketball fans that watch games can agree on. Your post is just talking in circles.

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

Jeff Green just got on the team last week. I doubt that he has had much impact. Redick became a much better NBA after playing with Paul. So did Jordan. Cole Aldridge actually looks like a better player too. A healthy Tyrese Evans is better than J.J Redick. He was easily their 2nd best player just last year.

These drive by observations based merely upon the latest power ranking are why you tend to get a lot of this stuff wrong.

Chris Paul missed the playoffs 3 out of his first 5 years in the league.

Etwaun Moore and Taj Gibson have more trade value.

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

Looks like a different player since Butler got injured.

He has looked better for longer than that. He has been a different player since he removed the mask. Anti Rose crowd have been loathe to admit they were wrong so they will focus on his trade value or his ability to be traded. Oh the irony of failing to admit they were wrong.

I thought he was done at the start of the season. Didn't think he had the "fire and the passion". I began changing my tune because the "eye test" suggested something different. He attacked the rim with more tenacity than at any time last season. He was not settling for jump shots as he did last season. He also began to show much more consistency and he has also held his own with the top guards in the league. He displayed some athletic pride which I didn't think he had anymore.

I'm more amazed he he has stayed fairly healthy this year, I don't think we'll see that MVP Rose ever again.

Davis had 59 points and 20 boards today in a close win. I bet long time guy's eye told him Davis was mediocre though.

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

My eye informed me that Davis scored an "impactful" 9 points last night. Only 2 after halftime.

:roll:

Carmelo Anthony has scored 13 or less points in 7 games this season in which he played the full game.

Yesterday was the second game ALL SEASON where Anthony Davis scored 13 points or less.

Stephen Curry, inarguably the best scorer in the league, has two games this season where he scored 13 points and 14 points while playing the entire game.

I also don't think Curry or Carmelo are pulling down 20 rebounds during those games either.

How is that for a thought? You simpleton. Maybe there is a reason you refuse to put weight into statistics. The few times you attempt to use some it blows up in your face.

You didn't watch the fucking Wizards versus the Pelicans either. Shut up.

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

Isiah Thomas. If you watched the games, you'd know that.

ANYWAY... you might have heard that Isiah Thomas sucked moist asshole as both a coach and a front office executive. Do you care about what he said?

rpb is wrong. Phil McCracken is useful.

RPB is right. You suck.

Playing pretty good point for the Celtics right now though

I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

Let's see. NBA Hall of Famer, renowned judge of talent, one of the architects of the Bad Boy Pistons. Or you Stat gazer extraordinaire and a guy that thinks he is watching Tyrus Thomas when he is watching Bobby Portis? Not a tough decision at all.

Come on, now. I got a chuckle out of you referring to IMU as "you fool", but did you really say Thomas was an architect of the Pistons teams he played on? Maybe he helped run Dantley out and got them to bring in Aguirre. Anyway, I'd hardly call Thomas a shrewd judge of NBA talent. The man has bankrupted at least two teams and an entire league in between sexually harassing Knicks employees.
