Umm...what exactly is he as an individual supposed to do to stop Trump right now? Without the support of his party, his one vote means nothing. Decrying Trump’s trumpness and trying to rally the rest of the party against him is actually kinda’ important.

Actually, I’ve seen it more from Conservatives calling someone a RINO for not being a alt-right fascist.

There’s nothing apt about comparing the 10th best player on a championship team to the best player no matter how much you keep insisting. You can’t be riding coattails when you’re leading a fucking team, moron. Those are mutually exclusive.

Your entire schtick seems to be willfully misrepresenting the truth. Whether he “could” hypothetically be on the bench and come away with a ring is completely beside the point. He hasn’t. He’s gone out there and played better than everyone else despite the high level of competition he’s facing, despite Klay and…

He didn’t want to play in OKC anymore. He went to a better, more fun team. People get an asterisk for cheating, not for playing with other good players and choosing the best team available in free agency.

Bullshit. He’s playing in the NBA Finals against one of the greatest players of all time, a guy who shares his position. There’s still plenty of pressure.

And Robert Horry has more than Michael Jordan. So fucking what? Kevin Durant is the best player on a soon-to-be championship team full of other all-stars. James Jones was the 10th best player on some championship teams led by other people. If those are remotely equivalent in your mind, you’re an idiot.

He’s the best player on a team that’s about to win a championship and is outplaying a top-five all-time guy on the other team. He has every right to beat his chest. Roster construction isn’t his job. His job is to be excellent and he is.

Yes, actually. Toni Kukoc was a better player than anyone LeBron played with in his first Cleveland stint outside of maybe Antawn Jamison and better than anyone on this year’s Cavs team not named Love or Irving. Rodman and Pippen were both better than anyone LeBron has played with period. Full stop.

Remember when the Kryie-led Cleveland Cavaliers couldn’t even make the playoffs? Remember when the Scottie Pippen took the Bulls to the conference semi-finals and finished third in the MVP voting without Jordan? You’ve got to be trolling, right?

So? Why do you give a shit about how a team acquires players? How on earth does that have anything to do with the legacies of the players themselves?

So Jalen Rose is qualified to act as himself, but Dave Jacoby isn’t? They cast Rich Sommer to play a guy literally named Jacoby? So weird.

As an ECU alum and fan, good luck. Lincoln Riley is great at play-calling between the 20s, but he doesn’t know what to do in the red zone. Though I suppose he’s been calling plays for them already, so maybe nothing will change in that regard. Never heard any bad rumors about him while he was here.

I’m not pretending anything. Federer was only 28 when Novak won his first title. He may have been past his absolute peak, but he wasn’t anywhere close to finished. Federer has won six Grand Slams after Novak’s first. Pretty good for someone supposedly out of his prime. Nadal has certainly been plagued by injuries, but…

That’s ridiculous. Novak has been a dominant force with the best return of serve ever. Edberg was great, but Djokovic is an all-timer. He also beat both Federer and Nadal when they were still great. Quit the revisionist history bullshit.

Liam started writing after album three I believe. He grew into a fairly competent songwriter, but it was after America stopped paying attention.

The fact that they’re awful pricks to each other is a feature, not a bug.

Not necessarily. I would argue that, before LeBron’s ascendence, we had a long period where there wasn’t an unquestioned best guy in the league. Probably Shaq had the mantle, as you put it, for a while in there and many people would stan for Kobe, but there hasn’t been such near-universal agreement about who the best…

Despite his reputation as a quiet, clean player, Tim Duncan was prone to histrionics at times as well.

Depends on whether you care about the “pure point guard” designation I guess.
