Because it’s very similar to what happened last year which was big news. They’re comparing the two stories even though it seems like it’s not exactly apples to apples. They’re illustrating ways the system can be gamed. Previously it was access to data that not everyone sees (lineup percentages for players) now it’s…

It’s the typical argument of ‘oh you’re not 100% black you’re half black and half [insert other race here; usually white] so you can’t possibly know what REAL black folks go through.’ It’s quite common actually when race relations are discussed at least in my experience.

Makes sense to me but as a Tribe fan I don’t want to believe any of our young talented core guys are juicing :(

I was hoping someone would chime in with this so I didn’t have to do it. Puts the whole speed thing in a whole new perspective historically speaking at least for me.

Ok cool you’re a guy that doesn’t follow sports. Want a cookie or something? Let’s find out what you’re into so others can watch something related to that and not have a clue what’s going on then call it stupid. That’s all it takes to be a writer apparently lol.

Ah good call. For some reason I thought they didn’t win until their second year together. Still a rarity though and the Celtics were able to complement each other well which doesnt seem to be the case in other places. They didn’t have to change their respective games much to succeed together so that makes sense.

Also, no one seems to be talking about chemistry. None of the previous super teams were able to figure it out and win a title the first year. Losing Barnes, Bogut and others while gaining KD is a huge turnover in personnel regardless of how well the others play together already.

Wow, I was on Kony’s side at the beginning but your witty remarks have won me over +1

...and I’ll go back to the fact that it’s an internet blog. Those aren’t really the most professional of settings in case you can’t tell. Nothing on Gawker is gonna win any awards for writing lmao.

Fair enough. Internet blogs aren’t where I go to find quality writing so I didn’t think people assumed it would be a bastion of eloquence.

Not sure what everyone is so up in arms about. I only counted one ‘fuck’ in the article myself (sure, two if you count the headline) maybe I missed something? If the FCC is fine with using ‘fucking’ as an adjective who the fuck are you to judge another motherfucker, fucktard? Also wondering why you decided to attack…

So what about all those studies that suggest people who curse a lot are actually more intelligent? Laziness then right?

Fuck off you fuckin fuck. But no really, are you just too sensitive or something?

I use one at work and love it. I have a history of lower back issues so it comes in real handy for me when it flares up. Also as others have said it’s a good way to change things up.

Nice to see the narrative moving along from ‘Oh Steph isn’t 100%’ to ‘NBA is rigged so Green got suspended’ and now finally after being out of excuses we move on to the owner. Most billionaire owners are assholes that’s why they’re billionaires. Really grasping at straws aren’t we Kevin? Your golden boys got outplayed…

Lmao is that gonna be the excuse for the Warriors loss now? FYI, the last two minute report was released and no calls were missed or incorrect including this one.

I’d say losing Bogut mattered more than Green for one game. The Cavs had their own blowouts with Green in the game. Talk about excuses lmao

lmao fair enough. I guess I can’t blame ya too much absolutely no one outside of NE Ohio gave my boys a shot especially being down 3-1. Thanks for JR and Shump BTW.

There’s also a difference between creating a team around a guys strengths and the system as a whole making a player what he is. It comes off as saying LeBron is only good in certain systems or he’s a product of said system. I’m not sure I have words for that kind of stupidity if that’s what he’s saying. Nothing wrong…

Some good crow on the menu today.
