    Vucevic and Oladipo just destroyed them tonight. 33 each. And that dunk was something else, especially for a right hander.

    Putting on 50 lbs in 6 months is crazy.

    LOL.

    More potential than Anthony Davis. No doubt.

    Got bored and read thru some old threads...found a lot of us being wrong about a lot of things.

    Props to COA for being big on Marc Gasol for several years, but he missed this one a bit



    Also found S&L not thinking Anthony Davis was going to be an all-star but T-Rob was going to be the next human highlight reel.

    I had Danny Granger as a top 25 player

    The Top 26 stuff was a blast from the past

    Anthony Davis definitely surprised me. And damn was I wrong on him.

    And Robinson lol

    I was trying to find (seemed like last year but maybe year before) where a bunch of us listed out top 5 NBA guys and Love was in virtually everyone's top 3-5.....but couldn't locate it. I thought it was a thread of where to rank DWade and I thought another similar to where to rank CP3. Not sure some of the smaller threads are still there to scroll down but the search wasn't getting me anywhere. Bout wore myself out reading/scanning thru the past 2 seasons NBA threads (up until the playoffs started)

    I92 good stuff. I know I've definitely been wrong about a few things but really don't care to go back through it lol

    The rankings arguments are the most fun because they get the most argumentative. Any sort of "ranking": MVP, All-NBA, top PGs, top 10 etc.
  • Laley23
    Just read one where I was all about Eric Gordon and Blake Griffin as the next great combo. SMFH.

    Well, I was at least right about the progression of Griffin, but Gordon turned out to be made of glass.

    Hey! At least EJ was on his way. Robinson has just flat sucked. But yeah, Gordon ended up getting hurt and then turned into a ball hog who never was able to shoot again after his broken wrist.

    I was right on the Oladipo/McLemore/Otto/ Porter/anyone in that draft as well argument. I am already calling that a win lol
  • robj55
    Rose sounding off on his team, didn't you sit out a ton of games when you were healthy and cleared to play? Hypocrite.
  • lhslep134
    Good writeup on Lillard

    Lol, Waiters is a clown.
    Asked about his improved performance and finding shots in the OKC offense, Waiters responded, “Listen, they give me the ball. Like, I touch the ball. Like, I actually, like, you know, touch the ball.”
    BUT...
    The truth of the matter is, while Waiters' scoring has improved, his touches have remained the same. Waiters averaged 35.6 touches per game as a member of the Cavaliers, which is down to 34 since he joined the Thunder. Similarly, his time of possession has dropped from 1.8 minutes per game to 1.7, as SBNation.com noted.

    More impressed that he managed to put up no other stats (aside from fouls) in 26 minutes.
