And why even do this? It's too easy to just disappear and never use that screen name again when someone loses a bet. The Collector is the latest one to pull this stunt.

That's why there's a PM to discuss how to put it down in writing...like a straight up quasi-contract.

Dudes want to talk about accountability right...we can make things "accountable" alright.

I wonder how Russell would be away from LA. That man loooooves the Hollywood lifestyle out there and him and his boys he brought with him out there try hard as hell to be a part of it.

These aspects of the game are known "intangibles", ask any coach in basketball - diving for 50/50 balls, deflections, recovering loose balls, contesting shots, etc etc.

The NBA has coined it as "hustle" factors, which they've found a way to develop a formula in order to make tangible sense of them. Hence the inception of "hustle stats."
You put two and two together and you get "Intangible Stats."
I know bruh, it's an oxymoron. It's okay though, because now you know.

I'll be sure to factor in the amount of times a certain player dives for loose balls in my next fantasy basketball draft.

The fact that you think deflections are an intangible stat is enough. You're just wrong, man.

Where did I say that something "intangible" was "tangible?"
I just coined the term intangible stats (aka hustle stats) because the NBA has decided to come up with numbers to measure factors previously thought of as "intangible" factors as just another means of evaluating the overall effectiveness of a player. The two words are an oxymoron and is in no way designed to state that something tangible such as statistics are in fact intangible.
It's simple: Intangible stats are statistics that are measured/derived from the intangible qualities of players.

Fan club, hardly. I just don't know how one can continue to post and be wrong on absolutely everything he does. It's mind boggling.

Quote from article:
Diving for loose balls, getting a hand in passing lanes for a deflection, being close enough to contest a shot, or sacrificing the body and taking a charge.
For years, they've been called intangibles.
The NBA is about to try to make them tangible.
End of story.

They both love it. Russell I don't think has been as bad though since he's had this girlfriend he has now. Felt like he was trying waaay too hard off the court in his first year as a Laker
