Gallo's first half was strong enough that I just needed something like 10-4-2 (20 fantasy points) for first. Not the worst beat I had this year tho.

Hey guys, remember when Roy Hibbert was good?

i definitely remember when he was the gobert/sanders of years past, yeah

Sometimes players get worse yeah
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 16 April 2015 20:42 (nine years ago) link
Btw that was a really impressive performance by Gallo, he scored on draymond one on one like it was nbd
hibberts collapse last year was monumental. he was so shook for so long
― #wegonnabechampionship (Spottie), Thursday, 16 April 2015 20:42 (nine years ago) link
Hibbert is an odd duck, a total overachiever who is also a headcase is a rare combo
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 16 April 2015 20:45 (nine years ago) link
feel like a lot of what was attributed to hibbert was just great pacers team D
― lag∞n, Thursday, 16 April 2015 20:46 (nine years ago) link
He should've stuck with Parks & Recs.
― A-Hanisi Coates (Leee), Thursday, 16 April 2015 20:47 (nine years ago) link
Yeah I think that's possibly true. He's VERY slow and they did a great job funneling people to him. But what he did do in that situation was still good.
Hibbert is a D+/C- NBA athlete who somehow figured out a way to be really good for a while.
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 16 April 2015 20:53 (nine years ago) link
i remember for a while he was hitting what seemed like a ton of really weird impossible shots too, then he flipped a switch to not being able to make a simple layup or 3 foot hook
― #wegonnabechampionship (Spottie), Thursday, 16 April 2015 20:57 (nine years ago) link
He definitely got the yips and we won't know why until Paul George writes an autobio or something
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 16 April 2015 20:59 (nine years ago) link
he's still the master of going straight up on d tho
― #wegonnabechampionship (Spottie), Thursday, 16 April 2015 21:00 (nine years ago) link
He's still a good defender, with all the new revenue that contract isn't so bad
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 16 April 2015 21:03 (nine years ago) link
hibbert def seemed like a plus player to me even though his offense was weirdly bad given his size
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 16 April 2015 21:33 (nine years ago) link
i say seemed cuz i won't pretend to have watched more than 5 minutes of the pacers this year
haha otm, that 2ot game was the first time I've really watched them this year and we don't have compupost to keep us updated on them anymore
― #wegonnabechampionship (Spottie), Thursday, 16 April 2015 21:34 (nine years ago) link

wasn't the rumor that hibbert's wife cheated on him...with PG :/

i mean thats a pretty surefire way to utterly destroy the mental constitution of a teammate, KG practically broke carmelo anthony's brain in half with honeynutgate

It's pretty crazy how good mirotic was without shooting well, he might be the best player on the Bulls in 2 years.

He was contemplating suicide in Detroit and understandably has never really fully elaborated why.

"OKC eliminated" and "Westbrook scoring champ" as back to back notifications within five minutes from the NBA app was p incredible
I'm weirdly already a little sad that we prob won't have Scott brooks to kick around next year, we might have to pile on Monty w if he survives
― juice college (agent hibachi), Friday, 17 April 2015 00:22 (nine years ago) link
Brooks and his amazing intelligent eyewear will land a job elsewhere, but OKC will still have a wretched front office.

is this years cavs team weaker than last years heat?
― micah, Friday, 17 April 2015 13:20 (nine years ago) link
weaker as in "less of a playoffs threat"
ya
― lag∞n, Friday, 17 April 2015 13:39 (nine years ago) link
uh, no. the cavs do not start mario chalmers, for one.
― slothroprhymes, Friday, 17 April 2015 13:48 (nine years ago) link
a very comprehensive argument for sure but just one question are u referring to the mario chalmers they won back2back rings with
― lag∞n, Friday, 17 April 2015 14:08 (nine years ago) link
chalmers was to the heat success as the NASA logo painted on the side of the shuttle was to space travel

― lag∞n, Friday, 17 April 2015 14:15 (nine years ago) link
whoever said the argument was comprehensive?
in all seriousness i think the cavs starting five in the past few months is a bit stronger than the heat's last year although if wade's knees had not been about to inevitably collapse at that time, that might not be true, both the heat's bench last year and the cavs bench this year have some issues to say the least
― slothroprhymes, Friday, 17 April 2015 14:25 (nine years ago) link
there seems to be some time dysmorphia in that analysis
