Ya'll dudes is trolling at this point.......
1) I posted that because dude legit said nobody was Blaming AD for not carrying his team to a higher status.... That was a LIE.
2) stop acting as if in your 4th year... as a "Special" player you shouldn't expect some kind of improvement
Quote ME where I said this.
If this....
...reads as "nobody was blaming AD for not carrying his team to a higher status" to you...you really are a special case

I don’t have the same expectations for devin booker that I do for anthony Davis...
Devin booker isn’t a top 5 player in the league...

quick question here involving Coaches.... are they not allowed to develop or get better as they go along. I feel like everytime a young coach is fired they are considered Trash forever afterwards as if they too can't improve & come back a better coach.

Not necessarily if you're in with the good ol boys network around the league, you'll get another chance.

As rare as it is to be an nba player it’s like 100x more rare to be a head coach.
There’s probably so much dirty politicking and bad mouthing that goes on behind the scenes to get a job

Why does it matter if Booker is top 5 or not? Only teams with top 5 players can win 25 games or make the playoffs? Where is the sense being made?

I think Giannis has had the MVP wrapped up for awhile now.
Tonight’s game won’t make a difference to me.

As it stands right now, Atlanta has Trae and John Collins, the 5th and 6th picks in the draft, and over 55Ms in cap space, which could get to 70 if they offload Baze.
Could go in a few different directions depending on what they wanna do with that space

Trae better than i thought... i thought he would be decent in the nba and not replicate how he was in college... the kid can play... still a good trade though for both teams

Yeahhh...voters have routinely loved late season performances for the mvp, especially head to head
Giannis is in the lead but harden would overtake him with a 40 piece and a win or something

You, the same guy who constantly claims that Laker fans bring up scenarios that nobody was talking about.... "Strawmen" arguments in your words. ask for @'s and names.... because you were gonna try & dismiss it as such.
I post people clearly trying to shape that narrative, and now it's.... well that's not the consensus
Leemelone's original comment was " And again guys like ad and boogie weren't getting the teammate excuse when they were missing the playoffs"
And then you came through like that was some Asinine comment, or as if nobody discussed that.. Nobody ever said it was a consensus thought, it was a discussion where people argued on both sides. You are the one acting as if AD not getting blame was a consensus.

Booker is this generations Kevin Martin. Let him score all he wants.
Oh lets put it him at point guard, let him get some useless 5-7 assist per game numbers.
Gonna be his 5th year in the league soon. Idc what kind of roster you have. If you're as good as they say, you'll make your trash teammates somewhat better and win more than 25 games.

His team was down by 15+ and were intentional fouling & calling timeouts in the final minutes to allow him to try and score 70.... what about that isn't empty
I will agree with tyisla on this one thing... In that 70 point game, the Celtics were up by 18 with 2 and a half minutes left. Booker scored 16 of his points in the last 2 and a half minutes of the game with the lead in double digits the whole way. Before everyone says I'm a salty Celtics fan... he still scored 54 up until that point. It was still a great performance regardless... but it did turn into a bit of a joke in garbage time.

I hate that New York traded KP...because it would have been REALLY interesting to see if you kept that same energy.

KP won more than 25 games every year he was a Knick. Trash *** rosters too.
Bookers teams keep regressing. Stop making excuses for him.

Exactly 2 years ago and it didn’t mean much in the end.
That had the Triple double thing going for it though. One of those storylines casuals could hook to. Rare case
