Matt Armstrong, Monday, 9 December 2013 05:35 (ten years ago) link

Gay to Sacramento is so perfect

polyphonic, Monday, 9 December 2013 05:54 (ten years ago) link

I am content to see rudy a king. Adds piquancy.

Aimless, Monday, 9 December 2013 05:55 (ten years ago) link

yeah i am pretty psyched to forget rudy gay exists as he wastes away in sacto. free boogie.

Clay, Monday, 9 December 2013 06:46 (ten years ago) link

is sacramento a bad city or something? never been to cali idk

i love cali basically from diego to tha bay but sacramento sucks

rudy stuck on that terrible team is incredible

z-time champion (agent hibachi), Monday, 9 December 2013 12:21 (ten years ago) link

i think masai's next move is to swap kyle lowry to a mid-tier contender- 6m expiring, nobody really likes him but he's pretty good, and he can hand the keys to vasquez, see what he can do, and has a year-plus to see if he is good long-term or if they need to draft a different pg

Cleveland fans reminding you of your crazy ex

乒乓, Monday, 9 December 2013 13:54 (ten years ago) link

Also assuming that the 'Greek Freak' is Simmons' nickname for Giannis, disapprove

乒乓, Monday, 9 December 2013 13:59 (ten years ago) link

greek freak is pretty good! what's your beef

k3vin k., Monday, 9 December 2013 15:05 (ten years ago) link

wow didnt realize rudy had been quite this awful http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/85058/a-new-king-what-the-rudy-gay-trade-means-for-toronto-and-sacramento

Rudy Gay should ban all forms of writing and symbols from the locker room.

lag∞n, Monday, 9 December 2013 16:55 (ten years ago) link

lol ok i actually clicked on lagoon's link, read it, then forgot i got it from this thread

k3vin k., Monday, 9 December 2013 17:31 (ten years ago) link

haha meta

Al He Miola (Spottie), Monday, 9 December 2013 17:32 (ten years ago) link

lol

lag∞n, Monday, 9 December 2013 17:33 (ten years ago) link

why's he gotta hate on Landry Fields lol

Nhex, Monday, 9 December 2013 17:47 (ten years ago) link

I kind of hope that Rudy ends up the first significant player traded every year just for comedy value

z-time champion (agent hibachi), Monday, 9 December 2013 17:48 (ten years ago) link

That Cavs video reminds me that I'd really, really love to have Austin Carr and Quinn Buckner call a Cavs/Pacers game together. Both know / elucidate the game well + are giggly as fuck + sound like a cool mix of assistant coach & excited fan and get caught up urging players on.

It just sounds bad and doesn't roll off the tongue

No announcer's gonna use it

乒乓, Monday, 9 December 2013 19:24 (ten years ago) link

His nickname is "The Greek Freak".[5]

fit and working again, Monday, 9 December 2013 19:27 (ten years ago) link

yeah i guess something original like G-Ant is much better

k3vin k., Monday, 9 December 2013 19:28 (ten years ago) link

Quincy Pondexter (foot) out for season

moullet, Monday, 9 December 2013 19:29 (ten years ago) link

He doesn't need a nickname

I clicked on the citation and the only reference to to "The Greak Freek" was in the headline itself

Gonna edit the article to take that out

BTW, good post from Lowe explaining the Gay to the Kings trade http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/85058/a-new-king-what-the-rudy-gay-trade-means-for-toronto-and-sacramento

乒乓, Monday, 9 December 2013 19:34 (ten years ago) link

xp Man, can't believe that the 'Greak Freek' has caught on over my strenuous objections

Terrible day for basketball

We need to talk about the youngest player in the NBA. The one they call the Greek Freak. The one who was sent here to save pro basketball in Wisconsin. Where did he come from?

hes already got the eurostep? the one legged dirk j?

lag∞n, Monday, 9 December 2013 21:11 (ten years ago) link

Jordan Crawford player of the week here in bizarro world

Clay, Monday, 9 December 2013 21:19 (ten years ago) link

I feel like the dirk J is technically not that hard, it's just that few players are tall enough to pull it off

But yeah impressive mastery for a guy who's.... 19 years old?!

乒乓, Monday, 9 December 2013 21:20 (ten years ago) link

clips official with capt jack signing

panettone for the painfully alone (mayor jingleberries), Monday, 9 December 2013 21:21 (ten years ago) link

19 years old and played on some third tier greek team last year

lag∞n, Monday, 9 December 2013 21:22 (ten years ago) link

Doctors say he has potentially 2 more inches to grow I think

Buildwise he reminds me of Jonathan Bender

But he's already much better at utilizing his length

乒乓, Monday, 9 December 2013 21:27 (ten years ago) link

hes already more muscular than bender or durant hes prob gonna be kinda huge in a lanky way

lag∞n, Monday, 9 December 2013 21:30 (ten years ago) link

His game kinda reminds me of Barbosa

乒乓, Monday, 9 December 2013 21:32 (ten years ago) link

If you call him anything other than Gianntula you're doing it wrong imo

polyphonic, Monday, 9 December 2013 21:35 (ten years ago) link

wow the competition to nickname this guy is really intense
