Spurstalk's biggest homers?

[Punchy]

Here's my all Spurstalk homer team (I'm only including the most visible and populated fanbases. While T-long is indeed a great homer of all things Pacific Northwest, he doesn't have much competition since Blazer fans are few, as are Celts, Jazz, and most recently, Suns fan):

Lakers: 21Blessings, history2b, cobbler, Lkrfan, and namlook. (You might be thinking where's the homosexual trinity of Luva, Kool, and Cub? First of all, we all know Luva and Kool are trolls, who likely don't believe half the shit they say, and Culburn is a straight pessimist. These posters don't really define the term "homer" as I see it.)

Mavs: Amarelooms, Ghazi, grey named Mavfan except Zelophehad. .

Rockets: All of them.

Hornets: Fevertrees. (BR will insult, slander, and criticize the Hornets to no end when they are doing bad. I've never seen the whale known as Fevertrees utter a harsh word against his beloved Bees.)

Spurs: Since this is a Spurs site, we're going to hugely outnumber all fanbases, so culling down the hundreds of idiotic homers to just a few is no easy task. Frankly, I don't know where to start. So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

:lol not mentioning The Ghaz

Good one. He will be added.

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol

Agree with all of the Lakers picks, all good choices..

I don't think any of the Mavs fans here are homers..

I don't remember all of the Rockets fans, because none of them post on a regular basis, but the guy that defends Yao all the time is a homer..is it Double Up?..not sure, could be a different guy..

Tlong is a homer, but he's a lovable homer..he wouldn't be himself if he didn't have that shtick..same with Ghazi..

My man MiamiHeat is a homer, but he's a realistic and reasonable homer..

As for the Spurs, Rummpd is probably the biggest homer right now..ohmwrecker and DesignatedT used to be up on the list, I'm not sure if they're still up there, haven't paid attention..this isn't an insult btw, nothing wrong with being a homer..

chill dog, I know you're a good poster, and I like Lebron as well. But as many have said in the past, when it comes to LBJ you support some really stupid shit.

When you honored the King's word, that his karma tweet was not written by him AND not about the Cavaliers, I could not believe it. It drew some parallels to this:

Catholic school teacher: Now kids, you must believe in God to go to heaven. It is completely fact that God exists.

thank God the Spurs office is not that stupid to trade Hill and Neal for the French Prophet

Your post is an astute example of Spurs homerism.

Ren, returning with accurate acumen.

40pts vs Golden State

Roddy is pretty damn good but nowhere near value of Neal+Hill and nowhere near the value that mavfan puts on his ass.

Roddy for Neal, sure. Roddy for Hill, I wouldn't do it but ok. For both, no fucking way.

Roddy's ceiling is Bobby Jackson anything more is homerism and delusion.

[Gutter92]

Roddy for Hill I would do straight up. I didnt say BOTH. Read the post.

Um his ceiling is Bobby Jackson wtf? and I am not even a Mavs fan, If you want to laugh about the GS game, but then how about the Spurs game? Is that a laughing joke he destroyed them? And more importantly DESTROYED Hill?

pQ5TUKA8Guw


What's wrong with his ceiling being Bobby Jackson? Dude put up 15 ppg in 28 minutes. Not bad numbers..

[cheguevara]

so what is his ceiling Reinaldo??

Isiah? :rolleyes

[ohmwrecker]

Lol, Roddy never played? He dominated when he got PT last year. And he's injured this year.

Your post is an astute example of Spurs homerism.


PlayS, you bonehead. And just like everybody else I assumed you meant both Hill and Neal. Your post wasn't clear.
How is my response "homerism"? If RoddyB wasn't injured I would consider it, but right now . . . it's a bad trade.

And Cully, shut yer hole.

[cheguevara]

Bobby Jackson averaged 15 ppg at the height of his career. He was more around a 9-10 ppg scorer.

Roddy can hit 16-20 ppg consistently if he gets the minutes and is the 2nd option. He wont be a number 1 option because hes too small, but he can be an excellent 2nd option.

Bobby Jackson at the height of his career averaged 23mpg. He could have easily averaged 20ppg if given 30mpg.

The comparison is good IMO. Both are similar scorer type players, that create their own show and bring energy. Roddy would be a great 6th man or great 3rd option on a good team. Anything else would be asking too much.

I wasn't one of those dipshits. Still, I would take a "potential" player over a "career may be over" player every fucking time, but that's just the kind of dipshit I am.

[Dave Mustaine]

Since when is Tiago a potential player? Don't you have to show some potential to be considered a potential player?

[ohmwrecker]

Um, Splitter may as well not even play. He is like the shadow man on the court.

I'll take his 4 pts 2 boards and 6 fouls for now . . . at least he's not hurting the team.

[ohmwrecker]

Since when is Tiago a potential player? Don't you have to show some potential to be considered a potential player?

You are barking up the wrong tree if you are trying to get me to hype Splitter. I see some potential. He's a struggling Euro, he's gonna have to play through it, or not . . .

[ohmwrecker]

Yet how does his potential go near Oden's?

After which season ending injury?

[ohmwrecker]

I would take Oden after 3 seasons of not playing due to injuries and was coming back the 4th season over Tiago Splitter.

OK, then . . . How's that All-Injured fantasy team working for ya?

[jjktkk]

Lol I was. I said I would trade Splitter for Oden and I still would

Horrible trade idea tbh. What exactly has Oden done so far in his brief college and NBA career, besides show hes got bad knees and is injury prone?

[jjktkk]

And what has Splitter shown in the United States of America?

That his knees are better than Odens

[Dave Mustaine]

That his knees are better than Odens


you are the epitome of suck.

[jjktkk]

you are the epitome of suck.

Just telling like it is. Oden's got a long way to go to just get on the court. I wish him well, but I wouldn't trade Splitter for him, regardless if Oden has more physical talent. The Last time Oden played a full season was in high school! Think about that for a minute big hair.

[jjktkk]

Maybe Oden needs to do this:

He has been a disappointment so far. Some Spurs fans desperate for a legit bigman to pair with Duncan, overhyped Splitter, but I wanna see what a full season working with coaches, and working with the Spurs Strength coach will do for Splitter's development next season, before I pass judgement on him. But imo, you would have to be a Phillip if you wanted to trade Oden for Splitter, giving Oden's Bynumish knee problems.

i never said i would do the trade

i havent seen splitter play to see how well his game actually translates to the NBA, how skilled he actually is, etc...

but we know for a fact, that in the small spurs when Oden was healthy, he was a very solid NBA player.

so id say that doing a trade like that is a high-risk, high-reward trade, while keeping splitter is low-risk, unknown-reward. just depends on the mentality of the person who would consider such a trade. personally, if splitter hasnt been able to get any minutes over freaking Bonner and McDyess, then he obviously isn't all that great. Pop doesnt strike me as a guy who despises playing rookies just for the sake of it, like Larry Brown, Avery Johnson, and Rick Carlisle. I think if he truly was a good player, he would be getting more minutes with the Spurs. But we dont know for sure.

[Blake]

I'm not. I am a Spurs fan and want to trade Hill or Neal for Roddy. I also said Tiago will suck when we got him.

Unlike the Spurs fan saying "Tiago will be AMAZING! Euroleague MVP, twin towers returns!!!!!"

Good points. No one knows what kind of player Splitter is, including Pop because of Splitter missing Summer League, training camp, etc..., due to injuries. From the little bit of playing time Splitter has received so far, Splitter moves pretty well for a big man, and shows decent awareness/bbiq on the court. But Splitter seriously needs to get stronger and his post game, while pretty good as far as his footwork goes, needs quite a bit of work. The only reason I wouldn't trade for Oden is Oden's medical history, not because Oden isn't a talented player.

[HarlemHeat37]

:lolBlake beat me to it..how does Balkman have the balls to talk about correct predictions after making all those Henne comments:lol..

As for Splitter, of course you trade him for Oden IMO..Splitter was overhyped by a lot of people during the off season, but now he's hated on too much by most people, he's a better player than a lot of people are making him out to be..

[DPG21920]

Sure, and I understand people's POV on that. I can respect that. I am also one of Tiago's biggest supporters.

But losing a guy like Tiago doesn't kill your team long term or short term. His upside is not high enough to have you really kicking yourself imo. He can be a damn good role player, and that is valuable.

But Oden, if healthy, changes the game in a big way. It's worth the risk to me. The only problem is what he will be owed money wise. Portland has to tender him one hell of an offer pretty much sight unseen.
