I wasn’t even thinking of that when I heard it. Thanks for pointing it out

Maybe now he is, maybe he doesn’t quite fit the system or the players around him, but I remember a playoff series he had against the Rockets a few years back when he played for the Trail Blazers where he was unstoppable on offense. His mid-range game was unguardabe in that series and he shredded everyone in the post.…

.420 batting average, that guy really knows how to get a good rip, really smokes the cover off of the ball.

Hey man, if you can do some mental gymnastics to tell yourself it’s a great move, more power to ya. I wouldn’t take that away from a Bears fan, I’m from Green Bay and a Packers fan and Trubisky two years from now isn’t exactly terrifying....especially when considering they could have had 4 players instead of just him.…

Give him a few years to develop while the team rebuilds? Didn’t they already take a step back by trading 4 picks for a player you claim isn’t going to play for years. Puzzling thought process to be sure.

Not only a limit to marginal benefit, but a rapidly increasing negative return from going to one player. Especially when viewing the 4th quarter, the play style made it impossible to win games that they should have easily won. I wasn’t very impressed with Houston this series. They gave the Thunder every chance to…

Is this a nail in the coffin for ESPN? When I was growing up in the late 90s-2000s, ESPN was huge, I don’t recall much competition outside of local sports coverage. Once we hit the social media age, ESPN seemed to flutter. At first they tried to differentiate there product by making more content specific shows instead…

Oh and Eric Gordon, it feels like he’s played for like seven teams now, but I’m sure every team in the league is thinking “if only I could pair my star player with Eric Gordon and Lou Williams”.

Counterpoint: Kevin Durant. I know he plays for Golden State, but there’s a superstar that took some cryptic shots at Russell’s play style and chose to go elsewhere instead of playing with him. I’d imagine other superstars wouldn’t really want to try to mesh with him unless he dramatically changes the way he plays and…

Um I don’t know, 6-23 9 turnovers, who cares how much better my shooting pct is if I don’t get to shoot and dudes wasting 26 possessions?

How many good players would want Russell to come to their team though? I feel like the number has to be very close to 0.

You should get more stars for that comment.

I remember one Derrick Williams in the NCAA tournament running up off a missed three jumping over everyone, grabbing the ball and finishing with authority. I thought that guy was going to be dominant. At least he made millions though.

Haha that’s ok. My brother always had temper issues, nothing extreme, but if I egged him on enough he would come at me and I would think it’s funny until he hit me hard enough to make me punch back. I would hit him and he would immediately cry and I would get yelled at. This was a loop we were stuck in for some time.…

Your comment is really funny cause it’s wrong. Of course people can’t force themselves to actually feel emotional and cry, but to act as if someone being able to mimic crying is a physical impossibility is stupid. Like the other comment said, guess you’ve never been introduced to acting or television. Damn near every…

Happens every year, but I hear what you’re saying.

Don’t forget that he signed on with the Eagles to back up Michael Vick, a year where they signed a bunch of overrated players and Nmamdi Asomugha. Vince infamously dubbed them the dream team and they went 12-20 before they alll got cut. It doesn’t go exactly like that but close. Here’s an article:

I agree, same reasons he didn’t win it past year. Because despite his performance it has never translated into much team success overall. How could you possibly be confident enough taking shots or usage away from the team killing personality? He might not have the greatest teammates, but he stunts any growth they…

Ok, I can see that. To be honest I just looked up the trade because I was not all familiar with it. I had not known that they agreed to the trade prior to the pick.

• Ross Perot was the owner of the Mavericks when they drafted Dirk. He flew out to Wurzburg, Germany to say hello.
