Position definition debate

I thought they said this era was “position-less” I’m always confused in that regard.

Picking and choosing. NT gone NT

AI gets brought up in 2 guard debates, so should Steph.

D-Wade was labeled a PG for a couple years because he was tweener combo guard. Then, he was strictly considered a shooting guard.

Penny was labeled as PG too, Idk man

Is Allen Iverson brought up in PG or SG debates? I feel like whatever label AI has gotten, so should Steph

Your position is whatever the hell you're listed as for that game

Big zeke is certified. Great in any era

I tell you who wasn’t guarding him though

I think this is one of those exceptions to the rule where the opposing player is a threat, so you don’t have to guard them. Something like that.

Isiah is tough,

the numbers don't justify his greatness.
and even the perception at the time doesn't, doesn't have many major awards, not many high MVP vote totals.

I feel Jamal Murray could wind up operating a similar space (at a lower level) at the end of his career if the nuggets win multiple chips.

People will look back at his career, see the mediocre stats, the lack of awards and think like maybe other players were better.

but the people who saw his playoff performances live will always think he was better than his stats.

I personally reject the entire anachronistic, regressive historic position taxonomy. There’s just basketball players who do different things.

Free your minds.

do you know what the term "exception that proves the rule" means?

if magic guarding the PG was the general rule, and not guarding magic was the exception. "exception that proves the rule " would apply. So in this scenario it would apply. it doesn't apply in say 1991.

He better not turn into a lemon in the playoffs again

This is why everyone doesn't need a mic in front of them. Like Bean didn't pack them boys up in 5 in '08 at the old ages of 31, 30 and 25 respectively. Had a lot to say but never won back to back...miss me with the nonsense.

I have a movie for Mr. Cole to watch.

[WASHED KING]

Isaiah Thomas is one of those people who have undeservingly been elevated to a mythical status. Lowkey a fraud.

Just like 95% of players from the 90's but y'all aren't ready for that discussion.

 

[WASHED KING]

Whoa whoa whoa this isn’t accurate

DONE WITH THE 80'S

Look at Sochan man, smh. It’s like having dogs with two separate feeding bowls and the more aggressive dog tries to bogart both. Smh. Only Vassell and Wemby belong on this team

Everyone but Devin needs to go. Sochan can stay cause Wemby likes him I guess, but what's the point

Ninjas love to blame everything and everyone else instead of just taking accountability of their game being off.

Realistically, Darwin cheated on his ex-wife and probably got ratted out. He don't want no more rodents around him and we know how that boy D'Angelo crawls.

FUTURE DISSENT

Naw, it's cool to like someone showing you love. People be overreacting to X/Twitter/social media in general. Not like dude dogged Tatum.

Don't make something out of nothing like these softies in society.
