Peak Kobe trait is emptying the clip and coming out on top more times than not.

which is why (and I got it in my post history) he has IMO, become the most underrated player in the sport

of course it’s how you view things, but him being able to generate as many shots necessary for his team to win when it matters is an insanely valuable trait that doesn’t get appreciated enough.
 
In general, I’ve started to see that one of the more overrated traits for an elite player is “passing.”

not playmaking, but passing

when the chips are down, you need your best player to able to generate if Necessary 35 shots from him in a game 5 of a series. It’s why Kawhi shot 40 shots in game 7 or why MJ shot 37 times in game 6 vs Utah. That’s all playmaking and that’s the playmaking that matters most, I think.
Lamelo Bust incoming!
 
Was unaware of the grandfather situation

The problem with the claim that’s an “old” pic though of course is that they’re wearing masks, which isn’t something done commonly here until like the last 3 months. So how old can the pic really be?
 
Are we going to see Benny's jumper live today? Might need to DVR and show my kids in the future.
 
im lost I don’t follow lol
Your entire post describes Lamelo to a tee, IMO. Biggest attribute is passing. Doesn’t shoot well off the dribble and doesn’t get to the basket. A lot of people have him as the #1 pick. If you’re drafting him first overall, don’t you want him to be able to potentially do what you mentioned in your last paragraph? I don’t see that at all with him.
 

You quoted him after he said he thinks LeBron is the best passer ever. Every other place I go, when playmaking is discussed, it's generally understood they're talking about playmaking for others, not this pseudointellectual definition you're using.
 
NBA sketchy af. Guys are definitely testing positive. This is a joke of a league. Silver a sucka

No amount of semantics will make this work for you. This isn’t the hill you want to die on 🤗.

MJ ELITE “PLAYMAKER” :hat. Most definitely in the same ballpark as LeBron as a “playmaker” 🤗

oh lol well not exactly

Was alluding to perennial scorers, or tier 1 guys on title contenders. I don’t think Melo’s that, but that certainly doesn’t mean bust. Gifted passer, scoring instincts, technique is salvageable, he’s going to be a terrible defender to start but I think he’ll become passable just off of size alone, he’s it and will be a great pro I think

I just don't see how any spectator can say players are "definitely" testing positive. A cover-up would be a MASSIVE undertaking if their plan is to continually send players who test positive home for three months without any word leaking. It would be devastating for the league because it would truly mean they don't give a **** about player's health. At all.

I could be completely wrong but I think we should wait for some more concrete evidence before jumping to a conclusion of this magnitude.
