I'll be honest, I seriously hate your posts. I cringe whenever there's a new one, and I feel like they're getting more and more insufferable, so I hate myself for even pointing this out, but you've never even seen the dude play a competitive game. How can you possibly be going on and on about whether he has "it" based on your experience watching "playas"?

SouthTampaBill must like him also...

He did have a couple of clutch free throws, if I recall.
If only James Young could defend every play.

Ollie straight up abused James Young. Whoever he was defending was attacking.

any of you dudes play serious organized hoops?

if so then your opinion takes on more value

i was shooting guard; i have seen playas in game action close up and personal

rockski has IT

instincts are excellent, good passer; he does not think game b/c he does not have to
check his nonverbal cues the next practice
he has supreme confidence and is humble (he knowz he good; he does not need anyone to tell him that)
when you take a long drive: who gets behind wheel; wifey or youz

only the dude with big game takes wheel if you want desired outcome

rockski will take the wheel b/c he dee veri reel deel

Chap seems to be pretty big on The Rock as well. Yesterday he made a post about how Rock was a "HUGE Get" and then went on to talk about how overrated burger boys were as he always does.

Or he was just ordering lunch. Hard to decipher

Every year, my eyes light up when Charles does this. You can damn near book a championship on it.

Chap was a shooting guard dude. Saw 'playas' in game-action, close up and personal like. Goes with the territory.

I agree with you on very few points Pal, but this was hilarious.

It reminded me of this scene:

i mean it was a practice we were all just watching..not too much going on unless there was a nice dunk/block

This! But Hyperthink was closer with his prediction about Lasan than 99% of this forum who thought he would be a bench warmer. There was a lot of crow eating!
Expand ...

Kromah was good offensively and Hyperthink, who had a personal connection to Kromah, was overstated in his praise for Kromah on offense. Kromah's key contributions last season wound up being worth 16 points a game between his offensive capability and his role as a lock down defender.

Kromah's defense was worth more than his offense. There was a lot of crow eating, but end of the day Kromah was as valuable as Hyperthink thought he'd be - just on the opposite of the court. Was that what you were trying to say Mau?

Kromah, for a small stretch, was the 2nd best player on the team and everybody was apologizing to hyperthink. People forget because Kromah pretty much shrank in the tourney
Expand ...
not his length on defense.... He was key on the court without the ball in his hands last season in the tourney...
 
The Contra is also true ... By definition.

Rakim might actually be that good. You are disbelievers ... I understand. But, since we have not seen him against true stiff competition in a reasonably few good situations, you don't know. We obviously have enough to give a judgment on Kromah. I'm saying you can pushback ... But the Lubin evaluation MIGHT be true.

It might be, but that seems incredibly unlikely. Scouts aren't infallible, but they're right more often than they're wrong, and not many were in on Lubin.

No I don't--I talk about him being a type of Dejuan Blair type(as in double double with 1.5 blocks) when he is a finished product--a guy that at an athletic 6-7 265 will be able to put his will on the game. I think people who keep saying 2 star player/wasnt recruited are much farther of than me. It sounds like Lubin is ALREADY our best potential rebounder and he has not played one game. He's going to play and contribute right away-- and hes the type of player other teams will come to fear. It's hard to match up with a guy at that size--thats what made Blair so tough. In a year or two he will be one of the top players on this team and will help contribute this year right away.
Expand ...
No offense but Lubin is barely 6'5 and is a long way from being compared to Blair . The good thing is he is a 4 year player that can develop but offensively he is very limited. That will be seen soon. I hope I'm wrong but I dont believe so.
 
Come on now, he's written some great Hilton Armstrong articles lately.

What is this thing where people insist that only certain guys are significantly shorter than their listed heights? Yes, a 6'7" listed height probably means he's actual 6'5". What's your point?
