    This is not meant to be racist.. I literally just don't understand it
    I'll have to ax my black friends on that one.

    Summary: Pick 6 your opinion is so off based and backed up by literally no factual or statistical support that I can say your opinion is plainly stupid and incredibly ignorant.

    What you can say: I'd rather have RW than CP3.

    What you can't say: give any statistical (or logical) reason why.
    lol are you surprised? Pick6 is a moron. Should have just told the pathetic to STFU, would have gotten the same point across.

    So who should he have drafted in the historic god fucking awful draft then? lolfail on your fail spin.

    Why are more ppl not pointing out how asinine pick6's posts were 2 pages ago?
  • Midstate01
    The pacers barely won and lbj barely played. And only because Paul George finally had a big moment. Probably a blowout Friday night.

    Lance Stephenson is the weirdest dude ever. He's a complete tool. He's either on drugs, or on drugs. Dudes crazy.

    Few of us did, still kinda baffled by it.

    PG must be the best SF in the league due to this game eh Pick?
  • Midstate01
    PG is a good player. I just can't call him a superstar yet. He puts up a game that makes you say wow, but then doesn't do it consistently. He's had some bad games in this series.

    Tonight in the 4th though, he had the wow game going.

    Who is the better player..Chris Bosh or Ibaka?

    I'll take bosh on my team today. Don't even really think twice about it either

    Ibaka seems more consistent than Bosh.

    I think the Heat could lose Bosh and still have a good shot at the title.

    You can't say the same about Ibaka & the Thunder

    Bosh
  • sleeper
    Ibaka. Bosh is overrated to hell.
  • sportchampps
    Depends on what I need out of them. If I want offense I'll take Bosh. If I want a more defensive presence I'll take Ibaka. I think Ibaka would almost be a better fit in Miami then Bosh.

    Question...who calls him one?

    No one on here that I have seen and all the media claim he needs to step up to be one and he isn't yet...so...
  • pmoney25
    If I have a guy like Lbj or KD, I would take Ibaka.

    Almost all of them...

    Some of them had him as the mvp till Durant went on his long streak of incredible games.

    Not only that but it's even simpler to distinguish his point: the advanced metrics teams use to project going forward are used completely differently than stats that analyze what had happened.

    To clarify for Pick: the stats our front office used that made Thompson, Waiters, Bennett look good to us are not the same/used the same as all of the stats that say CP3 shits on RW.
  • Mulva
    I'll take Serge for the defense. More of a game changer in my opinion.

    At the AS Break, he was right there...

    No one calls him a superstar.

    Regardless of how big of a dick i'd want to be and not give up my team.

    He won't see that figure again, especially as the Clippers continue to under acheive.
