I was at the game. Forgot it a long time ago

Buckle Up

It’s Lebron. Whether you like it or not, it’s still Lebron. He elevates his game in the playoffs. NBA is about titles and consistency. Harden has been great, he is great. But his game lowers in the post season. So many times it was Harden himself losing a game with an awful turnover, or trying to get a bull shite foul instead of taking the shot and missing terribly or getting blocked and so on. If you want to say he has been the best this season, sure. That doesn’t make you the best. That’s ignoring the greatness of players like Bron and KD and then playing at an elite level for a decade+.

---

LeBron is the best. Harden isn’t a choker though. Playing Golden State is always going to be an uphill battle. Even if you’re great, they have three guys just as good as anyone. The Rockets should rest Harden more and he shouldn’t play hero ball when he’s exhausted. Westbrook has the same issue, they are gonna shoot even when their legs are gone. But Harden is a great player whether you decide to focus on his failures against teams that are just plain better in terms of talent. I think you know better and you just want to be a Harden hater because it’s a cool thing to do.

The black youth in this country have enough problems and then you have the guys they look up to saying absolutely crazy shite. See Kyrie and the flat earth theory. These kids take what they say as fact.

I say stupid shite and have problems too. I’m glad other people do it too. I guess people have a lot in common. I know the world isn’t flat but I’m gonna probably get on the flat earth team just because people are really concerned about flat earthers. Barkley could tell people round doesn’t exist and his nickname has round in it... and people would take him seriously and tweet about it. Anyway thank god earth is flat.

Going to bed but I hope somebody starts a thread to see if Amari Cooper or Ray Lewis murdered more people this week and why Gronk was so out of position at the end of the game. I’ll probably bring up Wu Tung Clan, A Aron Hernandez, and C Murder (since murder is in his name. Angela Lansbury will come up (if you don’t know why look up Murder She Wrote and Wikipedia and then binge watch the show). Either way if we can shut Dean Blandino up and stop reviewing stuff, Drew Brees could destroy everyone if he ever teamed up with JuJu. Also if anyone figures out how Wilder didn’t murder Tyson Fury with that punch, I really would like to know he got up before a 10 count.

Roll tide. Later.

The Colts was ranked 23 in both total D and scoring D in 2006. But you, a genius football mind, think they were the best in the league.

Great defensive ends but they had to get a lead. They needed to let the defensive ends just worry about rushing the passer. Running the ball neutralized that. Obviously we all saw the games and know Peyton Manning was good and those defensive units weren’t the best in the league. I did think it was pretty cool of you to state the obvious since people somehow were confused. I agree with you take and I Hope most people do too.

By the way, that post really was funny. All he said is they had a great QB and statistically poor defenses. It’s gonna be even funnier when people argue that he’s wrong. I’m sure somehow people will question Lebrons heart and whether Jake Fromm is pretty damn good. And somehow Dean Blandino will never figure out that JuJu catching the ball with both feet in bounds is always and catch and shouldn’t be reviewed for 30 minutes. But just in case anyone wants another hot take... I didn’t expect that guy to be that good.

Anyway sorry to disagree with you but the Colts had the best D in the league. Only defense I’ve ever seen that’s better is OU this year. How they beat Kansas... I’ll never know.

I think the Golden State would sweep and the Rockets would have a tougher time depending on Chris Paul. So there’s probably more games in the finals if the Rockets win.

If I were Chris Paul I’d get shot up with Cortisone or whatever it takes because they probably only need him for a game to win a Championship. If he rips it, then he’s got six months to heal it.

Rockets are pretty big internationally (mostly China) due to Yao. I don’t know if really matters for global market who wins. I’m guessing it’ll be pretty even officiating and whoever catches fire from 3 wins. I’m hoping Harden doesn’t start settling for constant step back threes.

I do think the Rockets could have maybe won without Paul if Luc was healthy. He looks bad after that shoulder injury. It’ll be an interesting game.

I loved to hate on the guy because he’s such an attention whore, but then he does things like that and I’m like frick, this dude is a saint.

I’ve got family at that school and I don’t live far from there. We were very lucky today. There is some psychological damage but nothing like what the parents will go through.

JJ obviously doesn’t hate attention, however I think the ends justify the means. He stepped up and made a lot of grieving people feel a little love. It won’t help them deal with their pain enough to stop them from suffering but every bit helps when things seem this dark.

I don’t want to judge his intentions. I’d rather admire him for being someone in the one percent who spends his money to make a difference. The world would be a much better place if there were more wealthy people that spent their fortune doing good.

It hasn’t been a great day for my friends and family near here. Having someone step up and show support does make a difference in my opinion. So whether it is true or not, his actions make me believe that he is a good person.

Beyond that most of us can’t afford to do what he did. People act like assholes on here and talk a lot of shite for fun and rivalries. When you read comments from people about this from people on here, I believe that there are a lot of people on here that are sending prayers and would do the same thing if they had the ability. So my opinion is that JJ Watt and everyone that took time to post their feelings are equally virtuous and important.

Anyway sorry for being too serious but there are a lot of sad people here that need to feel love right now. My thanks isn’t important, however I just wanted to mention that the positive energy makes a difference.

Utah is a good team. The Rockets won’t shoot that poorly from 3 again but Gobert does so well in the middle it cuts out the easy buckets. They’re a fun team to watch.

What’s the point. That was a bitch move by Hood as well.
