yeah it's prob better long term to not have a couple tanks under your hips if you're gonna be running and jumping constantly for a dozen years

someone should let jared sullinger know.

Looked like it was in-game, maybe NCAA, I tried not to get too close to it. xp

still haven't watched/seen the ware or pg injuries
― Spottie, Wednesday, 18 May 2016 18:42 (eight years ago) link
as someone with the jared sullinger body type i can say its def a big impediment to balling out
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 18 May 2016 18:44 (eight years ago) link
depends, if you know how to post and use the weight as an advantage then you can ball.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 18 May 2016 18:47 (eight years ago) link
im not too squeamish but id still rather not look at the pg injury after hearing about it
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 18 May 2016 18:47 (eight years ago) link
tbh would be pretty rad if marcus smart actually turned into a good player, with his defense he doesn't really have to be that amazing on offense to get there, just not the worst ever
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 18 May 2016 19:13 (eight years ago) link
its crazy to look at nba players legs they are almost all extremely thin, this is just what good jumping legs look like i guess
― lag∞n, Wednesday, May 18, 2016 1:53 PM (1 hour ago)
one of the excuses i've heard for why 45 jordan wasn't quite jordan that initial comeback was he had 'baseball legs'. it seems a little crazy to me and soccer players usually have pretty developed legs (those dudes are just ripped in general though) so not sure why it would hurt w/ basketball (soccer players don't need to jump obv but would more swole legs hurt that really?) though maybe idk.
― balls, Wednesday, 18 May 2016 19:13 (eight years ago) link
my completely uneducated opinion is its just a body type thing ppl who jump high tend to have that body type, like its not like these guys arent squatting heavy weights or w/e their legs just resist bigness, old jordan prob cldnt jump just cause he was old + generally put on weight

saw that one live, brutal
they cut away from it to the bench just as one of his teammates was puking

a. it is no surprise all 3 of the shows riles mentions are about ppl with massive amounts of political or financial powerb. why do i think he's watched the scene where zoe get shoved in front of a train approximately 6,000,000 times, possibly on repeat

does this mean phil has abandoned the triangle?
― if young slothrop don't trust ya i'm gon' rhyme ya (slothroprhymes), Wednesday, 18 May 2016 23:51 (eight years ago) link
i wonder what the triangle will think of this.
(it might as well be referred to as its own entity at this point)
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 18 May 2016 23:51 (eight years ago) link
He played that flex offense under Sloan which is a lot like the triangle
― (•̪●) (carne asada), Thursday, 19 May 2016 00:04 (eight years ago) link
i kinda liked that theres still one team running triangle plays
― ciderpress, Thursday, 19 May 2016 00:09 (eight years ago) link
When it's ran correctly it's great to watch and I still think there can be a place for it but not as your primary attack.
― (•̪●) (carne asada), Thursday, 19 May 2016 00:14 (eight years ago) link
theres not too many teams it makes sense for right now because almost everyone has a good PG and the triangle kinda marginalizes their role in running the offense. utah could do it idk who else
― ciderpress, Thursday, 19 May 2016 00:23 (eight years ago) link
also its just kinda antiquated at this point, the best elements of it have been incorporated into other offensive sets
― ciderpress, Thursday, 19 May 2016 00:25 (eight years ago) link
its too slow developing is the main problem
― lag∞n, Thursday, 19 May 2016 02:11 (eight years ago) link
Also usually relies on big (slow) point guards a la Ron Harper and with the hand check rules long gone the current two time mvp is a whopping 6'3 190

whoa
the whole bench just recoiled when they saw it
― marcos, Thursday, 19 May 2016 15:04 (eight years ago) link
yr all-rookie teams:
FIRST: towns, porzingis, devin booker, okafor, jokicSECOND: mudiay, winslow, willie trill, russell, myles turner
would swap justise into first for jokic tbh but p reasonable choices
― if young slothrop don't trust ya i'm gon' rhyme ya (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 19 May 2016 18:28 (eight years ago) link
swap justice for okafur u mean
― Spottie, Thursday, 19 May 2016 18:29 (eight years ago) link
pretty good rookie class imo
― balls, Thursday, 19 May 2016 18:38 (eight years ago) link
xp that would also be fair, i wasnt as high on jokic as some ppl but he'll prob have more positive impact on the nuggets than okafor will...anywhere (unless maybe okafor magically learns defense)
― if young slothrop don't trust ya i'm gon' rhyme ya (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 19 May 2016 18:43 (eight years ago) link
myles turner >>>
― lag∞n, Thursday, 19 May 2016 19:02 (eight years ago) link
what you mean to say by "not as high on jokic as some other people" is "i didn't watch the nuggets play this year". pretty much everyone who's seen him in action loves him. he's passed the eye test and the stats test
― k3vin k., Thursday, 19 May 2016 19:16 (eight years ago) link
justise's offense is so bad
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Thursday, 19 May 2016 19:18 (eight years ago) link
well maybe just the times i watched him, i guess his numbers aren't that terrible
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Thursday, 19 May 2016 19:19 (eight years ago) link
if justice gets to just average starter level offense hell be extremely valuable, if he ever really starts to rain watch out

― J0rdan S., Thursday, 19 May 2016 22:54 (eight years ago) link
if i were a team w/ no other means of obtaining a superstar i would consider giving dwight a shitload of money. i still think he has dominating stretches/games left in him if he's not put in a situation like he was in houston.
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 19 May 2016 22:55 (eight years ago) link
i could see him getting a fresh start mentally but not sure he can bring it physically often enough. also not sure when something else will cause him to throw a random hissyfit.
