Is Matt Moore a troll masquerading as a serious journalist?

[spursistan]

That, combined with the letdown of playing a team without its best player, opened the door for the Spurs to slip by the Rockets, when Houston had outplayed them in large part throughout the series.

:lmao

Still wanting to die on that hill, just because he spent the entire season doubting the Spurs and picking the Rockets to oust us..

These people are the worst..At least Zach Lowe has the decency to walk back a bit from severely underestimating us pre-season..

[RD2191]

He's a fukin faggot. I trolled the shit out of him on twitter last season and he blocked me. :lol

[Chinook]

Everyone was singing that chode's praises earlier in the year when I was calling him a fucktard.

[DMC]

He's probably right. The alternative fact is that perhaps Tony is indeed a cancer and Houston is just a shitty team, and Harden is the biggest playoff choker of all time.

Beer this man. :toast

[FkLA]

What a faggot. They played the Spurs close all games with the exception of Game 6 but when they lose 7 out of 10 games you can't claim HOU is the better team. The SSOL used to do the same yet noone would argue they were better.

He is truly embarrassing..


Let's go ahead and get the elephant in the room and shove him out the door. Yes, Kawhi Leonard is hurt.

And the then he processds like it's nothing..

[spursistan]

^^ this is an absolute travesty of an article especially the Spurs part..:lol

[cjw]

Half the stuff I read from him and the amount he replies to people leave me no doubt he's a troll. He's a step up from the ESPN talking head blowhards in his depth of understanding of the game.

Might unfollow him as he doesn't break any news. Guys like Lowe run circles around him. He should be fearful of the fact that the whole TrueHoop team from ESPN is free agents.

Worst comment today was "one half does not a series make"

[YGWHI]

He became into a media clown...Hating on Spurs all season, saying that Houston deserved to win, he also voted for Harden as MVP...Fuck him

He is seething inside that Spurs beat Rockets..The tenor of his tweets the past week or so after he picked them all season long "to roll" us has been quite something to see..The insecurity combined with his trollish persona prevents him from conceding he was wrong.

So did Nate Duncan and Zach Lowe all three had concerns about our defense against their shooting, for games 1,4, and 5 (almost) they were right

[spursistan]

This moron is having a meltdown on twitter :lol..

[TheyCallMePro]

He's a liberal troll, I've been blocked so many times by him on twitter that I've just stopped trying to argue with him.

It's like he knows he is about making people "madonline"..Don't think he is a scrub writer/analyst or anything, but there is no question he is contrarian fishing for the argument..

At some point, you just need to stop feeding a troll armed with such naked obtuseness :lmao..

Honestly if he wasn't such prick on the twitter medium, i would have tried to take him more seriously..His interpersonal relations skills are fuckin garbage for professional writer ..

I stopped
Following him... I disagree with him often but I don't mind reading dissenting opinions etc... But he's obviously enjoying his trolling bit...

[objective]

If it makes you guys feel any better, he has to do this to keep his job and even that might not be enough.

CBS let Zach Harper go who was their main podcast guy with Moore the sidekick, and ever since he was forced to take over Moore has had a desperate crackle in his voice and sad pleads to buy the sponsor products which the show never had to do before, hell it didn't even have sponsors or offer codes prior.

With all the talent ESPN let go I think it's only a matter of time before they let Moore go to replace him with someone else like one of them.

Yeah, he is actually knowledgeable for most part, but he is wasting every bit of it in a sorry fan-baiting exercise..Like it is fine, you've predicted a sport match-up contours wrong all year long, there is no shame in conceding it in such low stakes affair instead of doubling down with embarrassing what-if gymnastics that only serves to rationalize/reinforce your initial opinion/take.

[TheGreatYacht]

Just another advanced analytics nerd. Hates 2ptrs, loves 3pt chucking. Explains his fanboyism for the Rockets and Worriers. Spurs once again taking out his Grizzlies just added salt to the wound.

Dude was living on the Spurs being a better team without Kawhi the whole season because of those "advanced" metrics :lol ... and now that they were exposed without him... :cry Kawhi wouldn't have made a difference :cry

These hipster nerd writers in the basketball community are ruining basketball.

Another insufferable product of modern hipster writers who likely never played a second of organized athletics but like to troll/play devil's advocate for clicks and hits.

Seems silly, we basically saw that series in 2014 and we know how it went.

You think the 2013 Heat were the same as the 2014 Heat? 2013 Heat won 66 games and had a 7+ SRS. 2014 Heat won 54 games and had a 4.15 SRS.

Hmmm that's odd..Cause the 13' Spurs should've beaten that team too...

Seriously fuck Ray Allen...

And why the hell are the 15' warriors ranked #1??

at least he had someting right when he was calling out Spurs for having signed LMA tbh...

Fair enough, though we might have been seeing a 2001 Lakers or 2017 Cavs effect; the Heat's big 3 had slightly improved PERs and much better TS% in the 2014 playoffs compared to 2013.

I guess I should put it a different way: the 2014 Spurs were better than the 2013 Spurs, and the 2013 Spurs came within seconds of beating the 2013 Heat.

Yeah, I'm not necessarily arguing that the 2013 Heat were better than the 2014 Spurs...just think that there is a noticeable difference between the 2014 Heat vs. 2013 Heat (and it wasn't just a matter of coasting).
