^^ Adam silver needs to get rid of these bad referring, stop giving technicals for looking at players or saying doing something as harmless as shouting at a bench "you can't stop me" or something of similar nature. Just stop it, these are grown ass men n you it's a bunch of testosterone out there, just let it be what it is.

Cousins has like 70lbs on him.

Makes no sense. Because what, he looked at the bench?

Can't believe that Duncan OT tip in. Asik had his hands in Duncan's jersey practically too. I would have called a foul and let him shoot for the win if I saw that but you can pretty much get away with anything on a last shot.

Edit

Lol Asik, would have called the foul still

LOL Smart was on the verge of tears after he got throwed, no chance he could hold his own against a grown azz man like Boogie. Boogie has a bit of Sheed/Artest in him and that's a good thing imo.

Which I love. Sheed was my fav player before dirk. And before him it was kemp.

LOL

Westy has a better PER, he's rebounding as well (considering he's 8 inches shorter, thats nuts), passing a ton, his turnover rate is excellent, and he's played a lot more mins. It's not unreasonable to say Westbrook is better.

Westy is 28/5.5/7/2.3, Durant is 25/5.5/4/0.7. I'd take Westy.

"Cousins was born in Mobile, Alabama and attended LeFlore Magnet High School in Mobile."

"He attended Edward S. Marcus High School in Flower Mound, Texas,...Smart is the son of Camellia Smart and Billy Frank Smart. He has three older brothers..."

I got Boogie panicking in his first real fight while Smart is calm and cool and knows how to beat up bigger dudes.

Smart wins.

But at the end of a game, you'd trust wess over kd? Wess is likely to make an errant pass into the stands as he is taking it to the hole. Kd will hit a game winner from 30 ft. Isn't as emotional unless he's accepting mvps, then it's on!

Apples to oranges here, as I think both are needed for okc to title and the ying and yang to this team.

I can see arguments for both, but if you're saying wess>kd, you're basically saying wess is the number one player itl right now.

Bobbo has always had difficulties with tenses, remember when Dwight was better than Lebron?

FWIW I'm willing to accept a Durant vs. Westbrook PER prop bet

actually kd will miss a game winner from 30 ft. has like the worst clutch stats ever

Worst clutch stats ever = Better than Russell apparently

39% from 3 on huge volume(Curry 28%)

I never...

Bobbo has gotta be trolling at this point

lol at 10 game sample size

signed


he really turned into a child before being traded to cleveland

my bad i forgot a 10 games (!) sample is far more relevant than the 6 full seasons they've played up to now

smart is plenty grown himself, dude is legit NFL linebacker size. but he definitely may have been a bit shook realizing for the first time in his life that it was actually possible for someone to be that much stronger than him.

it can not be overstated how incredibly rare and unique a human being someone like DeMarcus Cousins is. being ~7 feet tall is ridiculous in and of itself, but like 90% of people that tall have the KG/Noel body type while he has to slim down just to get to 270 at 24 years old. and somehow his bones and joints actually handle his gigantic mass without an issue, dude misses as many games from illness and suspension as he does from injury.

so ridiculous that a legitimate generational 7-foot athlete dropped to 5th in draft because of his temper. they don't make trees big enough for someone like Boogie to grow on, you just gotta accept the bad with great and figure out a way to make it work, no matter how hard that might be.

writing all this makes me realize that Karl Towns is the best prospect since Lebron, gonna be hilarious when the Knicks or Lakers win the lottery and get fooled by the Okafor hype.

Westbrook's post game interview after his ejection

It's just stupid

KD plays more games/year on average
He has a game that will age much better
He doesn't play at the deepest position in the league
Oh yeah, he's also the better player


Nobody would actually take Westbrook over KD if starting a new team

Okafor will be a top 5 player for a decade

You don't pass on that

TZers are famous for making unrealistic proclamations. Brag when you look good, backtrack and pretend something else if you are wrong.

I blame Thayer for all this unnecessary aggression because he seems to fact check people.

Facts are a variable in TZ at this point.

Gonna sound like a homer but Nurkic is very similar to Boogie at this stage. Nearly identical size , athleticism, and skill, only Nurk seems to have adjusted quicker. And he went for half a McDermott

Careful, same time last year people were advocating Chicago to tank for wiggins who was a lock to be the next lebron
