  2. New York is a mess. The only way this works out for them is that the rumors of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving wanting to jump ship to the Knicks in the summer are more than fever dreams by New York media.

     

    also it's looking like the Anthony Davis train to LA has sort of derailed in that New Orleans wants the moon. (Possibly rightfully so) That may still get done but it will require a lot from the Lakers in the form of picks, and young talent. 

    Also Lonzo's dad reminded the Pelicans that they don't want to deal with his family. 

     

     

  3. There is a developmental league. The rest of the NFL develops so that the Pats can take the players aboard and win championships with them. :D

     

    I'm disappointed in the outcome of the Subparbowl but I really don't begrudge the Pats. It's not like they haven't come up short in the big game but they are always in the picture. They roll players through and we count them out and then they win again. 

    When Bilicek (sp) is no longer able to torment the league someone else will come along and sustain greatness and they'll be the villains.

    I'm pretty sure I saw numbers that show Kobe's shooting percentage is pretty low in the last minute or two of games, however my memory says he always played big in key games and, of course, would completely shut down the best opposing scorer.

    Probably was low, because he was dribbling around being guarded by 4 guys, and completely ingnoring the 3 wide-open teammates and lofting an ill-advised off-balane 20 footer as the shot clock expired. ;)

    It was mostly this.

    Wilt Chamberlain"s corpse spins in its grave when you say thing like that. 

    yeah, I was giving a lot of scorers a poor shot there (Pun intended) Honestly, I'd have liked to see guys like Jerry West or Elgin Baylor with 3 point shots. I don't think Wilt would have made too much of a dent with those. 

    Wilt, Karl Malone, and Kareem are tremendous scorers, but Wilt didn't have the luxury of a 20 year career. Though to be honest, I don't think Wilt would worry about my slight. 

     

    However, I tend to give the Harden, Kobe, MJ prop out of angry deference to the fact that they're better players than I want to give them credit. Kobe has 2 more Titles than He should have IMO. And if I'm lucky Harden won't get one.

    Said that about LeBron and KD too, *sigh* some guys I soften on over the years, LeBron, Magic, and Shaq being the three I look back now with kind of a fondness. Still hate Jordan, Kobe, and Harden tho. Bill Lambier too.

    Harden has continuously come up short in clutch time, he is not close to the great scorers yet IMO.  Till then he's just another Bernard King or Dominique.

     

    PS:  It's possible that if he had more 'jerk' in his personality, he'd stop choking when it matters.  :)

    Yeah this is why. Harden's come up gloriously short. His game is predictable but not as overpowering as Jordan or Wilt 

     

    King was derailed by injury but I never saw him in his prime so don't know how good a closer he was.

     

    I'll also die on the hill that Kobe was less adept at clutch shooting than he and his fans think (the guys who hit the daggers were Big Shot Rob and Derek Fisher) Kobe would pout during the playoffs.

     

    Harden's chokes are what I breathe when I feel bad. Paul too.
