2015-16 NBA Thread

    Mavs pulling away as Clips offense isn't flowing well. Maybe the chipset quarter I've watched in a long time. The stars are bitching about everything. Refs better control better or there will be a melee in the 4th

    LBJ is #1 on that list.

    Maybe to you.

    This is all stupid anyways. I only meant to comment on buike's "Wiggins will never be a top 8 NBA player" comment.

    Why the hell Paul George got brought into all of this I have no idea.
  • Automatik
    I don't get the comparison either, but I'll play.

    George is 5 years older. So if I had to choose who I'd rather have moving forward, its Wiggins all day.

    Someone else bringing up Paul George doesn't get you off the hook for your asinine "he's garbage" comment

    Which I already stated was an exaggeration.

    "Slight"

    The above is still an absurd comment. A healthy Paul George is close to the elites and there's no reason to think he won't be healthy (as opposed to the "he'll never be healthy" comments about D Rose).

    Okay.

    Paul George is slightly above replacement level in the NBA. Wiggins has the potential to be a top 5 player in the league.

    No comparison.

    Yep.
  • Azubuike24
    I brought up Paul George...because that's about where I think Wiggins ends up. And I would say Paul George is a top 20 player in the NBA. It's all opinion.
  • Mulva
    Paul George was top 10 in the league in VORP in 2012 and 2013. He's tied for 4th so far this year (behind Steph, Lebron, and Westbrook). So yeah, just slightly better than replacement level.

    Reps.

    S&L will find a way to classify those metrics as a "slight step up from garbage".

    He wouldn't start in Cleveland.

    That's like saying Suh wouldn't start in Houston. No shit, bc there's a fucking MVP at his position. I guess Arod is trash bc he didn't play SS for the yankees?

    It took only 10 minutes for him to post that after my post and indisputably prove this:

    I feel about the same as I did before.

    I think a lot of people forget that I'm only interested in reality. Remember when the world was slobbing over Derrick Rose? I was the only person calling him a complete was of space and a worthless player.

    Turns out I was right all along. Rose will go down in history as the worst MVP ever.

    He may go down as the worst MVP, but to say hes trash and doesn't belong in the league is laughably ignorant.

    COA you're better than this. You know 99% of Sleeper's NBA posts are laughably ignorant, because he's trolling.
