Two point guards on the court at the same time

[Pauleta14]

What happened to you, tbh?
It's like a completely different person started using the account over the summer.

It's a topic with valid arguments and points to discuss. They can be wrong, doesn't matter, it's just a forum.
Yet you just come in here, much like in a lot of other topics and are so negative and dismissive of everything.

Noone is forcing you to read it, I don't read a lot of stuff in here. It's not like we went off-topic on a game thread.

Are different opinions THAT tough for you to deal with?

Am I a hater or nazi for thinking different?

I hope ur question is just rhetorical tbh, unless u missed the last few months, I'm a chill dude by nature who like exchanging with diff pov, I admit I don't care any more about the form here bc of he insane amount of ad hominem attacks and internet bullies living here.

As for the topic itself, like 90% of the debates, not specifically basketball related, ppl over interpret correlations as causations. It's no rocket science, just common sense and part of human nature.

Basketball didn't become positionless last summer, and there is no scenario where having undersized (P)guards is a good thing. Just maybe not as bad as the other available options.

It wasn't a "FU" to the thread or OP but a simple touch or irony. Is it THAT bad bro?

Like on most other topics, it seems that self deprecation has become a lost art

Are different opinions THAT tough for you to deal with?

Not if people argument them. Dejounte and some of the replies were thought out with explanations. As I said, even if those opinions are wrong, at least there was some effort put in.
I don't like dismissive one-liners.

Am I a hater or nazi for thinking different?

Wrong guy to ask that question, I just instantly skip over every political discussion, not just in here, but everywhere.
You can keep getting into that with other posters, I don't even read that .

It wasn't a "FU" to the thread or OP but a simple touch or irony. Is it THAT bad bro?

It wasn't just about this topic, I just noticed how most of your opinions became really negative over the past months, kind of strange.
I also often on PATFO for some of their decisions and I think some of our rotation guys are really overrated, but being negative for the sake of it...idk.

this could qualify ...........

Egor looks like all the things that folks tried to convince themselves Topic could be, actualized.

People were saying that about Traore a few months ago too, and now he's sinking out of the Top 5 due to some mediocre performances... Egor looks great so far, but the sample size is miniscule.

I don't like dismissive one-liners.

They can be very useful and save time tho, can't they? It wasn't dismissive at all, I often go on ST when I take a short break, especially since I stopped smoking, sometimes I go deeper in analysis, sometimes I don't find it necessary when a cple words can sum up my thought.
And I really think the confusion between correlations and causations, is the source of 99% of debates and is very hard for anyone to get out when stuck in it.

I should have mentioned that I wasn't talking about you, who indeed stays bb and don't recall attacking ppl, my bad.

But context matters and you asked me "what happened?", honesty not much, I'm the same, I like brainstorming sometimes and it triggers some in here when it's just freaking basketball

I've been patient, been diplomatic but at some point why should I make any effort towards bullies who insult around like they breathe? I'm not victimizing myself (I know some will be quick to conclude that ^^), just being pragmatic.

I don't think it weird, I think it should only be that way, that's how intelligence works, by confronting and doubting what the general consensus is. Not by alwasy finding silver linnings.

Like on other topics, those ARE JUST WORDS, there is no justification to be triggered or getting all emo towards any pov even the one you consider the stupidest. We've all been on ST for years, we all have a decent aount of stupid predictions, one would think it'd bring more humility but no... some still hold the truth it seems.

I'm a Spurs fan since the late 90' bro and I'll die one whoever plays for them, criticizing players or FO's decisions doesn't mean I'm a hater.

When I said (I know that one got a lot of u pissed^^) that MAYBE Wemby didn't end up in the right franchise or MAYBE entertaining a trade wouldn't be absurd (In Spurs inerests), it's not hating, it's a lot more interestng than u think but u need to actually take some distance from ur naural "emotional" position of fan.

An other example, last season I went on Vassell pre ASG bc of his limitations and fragility, boy I got attacked from all over the place with "the worst take of all time", "Wemby stan" etc

Not only my pov evolved post ASG because facts changed (Vassell vastly improved his at ude and game)but today I might be in the minority to defend him as most Spurs fans don't seem to realise what we could lose in term of shooting.

Again, I come here to chill and exchange pov, there aren't any that should be held, the same way (sorry to digress but it's related) even if you despise racists or conservatives, those should be able to express their pov as extrem or idiotic they could be. There isn't another way to get better at something that making mistakes/being wrong first.



What's the worst case scenario? That they're wrong? Is it worth all the insultS and constant aggressivity towards some posters in here? (not even talking about me be what i'm seing like "koriwhat" being presented as a horrible human being when I'm still waiting to see any proof of it).

Thx for making my point scotty

Now go back chasing the nazis

[RC_Drunkford]

Wasn‘t Demin mocked at #12? He‘s been on my radar since last season. Didn‘t really scout anybody else except 3-4 other guys from this class, but I‘d be happy if we can get him

Demin has flown up the Tankathon board all the way to #4, he’s under the radar no more…

Your post was 100% dismissive and I'm not sure if you understand that due to some misunderstanding of English, but there is no way you can say your first post in this thread is anything but dismissive. I didn't even read anything you put after that because if you don't even acknowledge that simple fact I'm not sure what the value in this post is.

What kind of ultra sensitive woke era do we live in, ffs???

I was ironical... wow how shame on me!

The point remain the same and only a few words were necessary, it's a basic confusion between correlation and causations. THAT IS MY OPINION

Had I been dismissive I'd have said it's 100% intellectual masturbation from someone bored... But I didn't.

My dude, I am not offended by your bull . I think you're a terribly inconsistent poster who makes X statement then tries to pretend that its Y and says that people are being "sensitive" when they point it out. Ironic that you, the person who practically filled the ocean with tears because Curry dared talk a little bit of , is calling anyone else sensitive. I don't care if you feel shame or not, but I was just pointing out that your post was dismissive whether you think so or not. You obviously have problems communicating with the people here and I suspect its a language/cultural barrier but that's a YOU problem my friend. Whether or not something you say is considered dismissive is not up to you, tbh. It's up to those who you are communicating with.

For someone who wants to call other people sensitive you sure do spend quite a lot of time ing that people don't let you have opinions. My opinion is that you project onto others because you know you are a crybaby.

Pauletta has a habit of accusing others of the exact same thing s/he is. It’s really weird. Almost comical.

Who the do you think you are??

Do you have (woke) meetings with your mates establishing rankings on who's a good poster or not? who's consistent enough or not??

GTFO you mentally deficient head with your judgemental bs

Why so sensitive?

Why so sensitive?

I didn't notice you among those other woke nerd Karens in here, but no worries, I'll put u in the same box my darling.

You're a good boy repeating stuff you've read but incapable of supporting any of ur points.

Let's just write down

[ambchang]

Hey Karen! you missed me I see...

You seemed to be very sensitive about this topic. How old are you? You have to understand the nuances of the argument.

Are going to accuse me of being a woke transsexual?

[Atl Spur]

Only thing I know is Dejounte stop biting my ! lol You know I put you on it’s all love, don’t give me that whole you barage

I don't recall having once engage any discussion with u Karen, You must be in love to follow me in every thread like that

Also I don't care about your sexuality, too much information

[Chinook]

Pop's been trying to run two-PG lineups since the days of Ford. I mentioned that Paul/Jones minutes were likely, even in a healthy rotation. Castle hasn't been slotted in as a PG in the depth chart this year, so it was likely he was going to get a lot of minutes with Paul and/or Jones. I think a lot of posters wanted him to get solo run to build his skills, but he seems to be building those just fine even with those guys. Paul is letting Cast bring the ball up. I think this is for a lot of reasons (Paul has a better history as an off-ball spacer, Paul may need to save energy and can use his wing spot to communicate with the other players and coaches, etc) but I think a big part of that is development. I hope the Spurs don't shy away from PG prospects in this draft, because they can pretty easily incorporate a BPA talent into their lineup. Even if they don't want a small PG like Dillingham, they could still use another scoring threat given Vassell's reliability issues and the real possibility he's a big piece in a trade. I could see a (Drafted PG), Castle, (Star Forward), Sochan, Wembanyama lineup within a year or two.

[TimmehC]

Manu and Tony both played like PGs and the oughts Spurs teams were at their best when both were on the floor. So this is not exactly groundbreaking, it's an established blueprint for success. But long term, it'll be interesting to see if they go back to it by drafting/signing another initiator to partner with Castle.

[cutewizard]

i havent watched closely at this point, but if there are signs that Demin can develop into a reasonable defender, yeah you have to consider that. with his length, iq, and shooting he could easily thrive off-ball on possessions where castle runs the show or vassell runs the occasional pick and roll

Agree with the Egor Demin thing......could be a good gamble hmmmm

[cutewizard]

We still have Nunez right ?
