Pretty much all your posts so approx 800 times

Example?

This game calls for bonner tbh
spurs players cant dribble tonight
just get him out there for his floor spacing then lock him away so pop cant go back to his mistress

This.

... as much as I HATE to admit it

This is the first time I've even used the term "hero ball" in this forum. (I'm not the one to usually point it out)

Check my history, folks.

you are paying for all the other ones tbh

[Cry Havoc]

Example?

Better than Parker running down the clock and driving it in, hero ball style, and missing it.

[Arcadian]

taking bong hits

So when everyone else uses it, they don't get any flak for it, but when I use the term for this first time, because I genuinely felt that Tony could've directed a better play for his teammates, I get called out for it?

That's not very fair is it, mate?

[Brazil]

Then what other word describes holding the ball for 15+ seconds and then setting for an ill-conceived shot that misses badly? I'm a huge Parker fan, but those types of possessions just piss me off. No one's saying that Parker always plays hero ball.

I play basketball.... That's what I would call hogging the ball, or "hero ball".

I never said I did. How many years have you played in the NBA, buddy?

What stupid things have I posted?

Parker hero ball....

I prefer Ginobili play making to Parker's hero ball.

I'd save my strength for TDMVPDPOY, mate.

[Dr. Robert Lee]

I spread the hero hate around, tbh. Manu is a guilty hero a lot of times, too, even though I love him.

[Boomersgold]

Exactly. That was the first play that I ever called "hero ball" from Tony...

Not very fair; calling someone out for something that gets done regularly by others....

[mattj1x]

Too much....saviour ball

And I want to see Chandler back Patty down on the post

see now you are posting a reasonable take in a civilized way ! You're welcome

sorry Boomersgold, I was expressing my annoyance at the term in general, and you happened to have used it a few times tonight. Didn't mean to focus all the negative attention your way. Plenty of posters come up with pretty far out nonsense at times.

[will_spurs]

Example?

Stating that you preferred Manu's 0 assists 2 turnovers "playmaking" to Parker's 5 assists 0 turnovers "hero ball", for starters.

[JRHernandez88]

Dam when did Stephen Jackson sprain his ankle? They said he tripped over a waitress?? Wtf

[Boomersgold]

I meant his usual playmaking, and by that I mean that I prefer Manu handling the ball than Parker because we all know that Manu's one of the best playmakers on the team. That's a fair comment, isn't it? I don't think I'm the only one that prefers Manu to be the playmaker.

It is a forum, and I'm just sharing my opinions, folks. No need to get butt hurt about it.

He is, but he also turns the ball over a ton of times, which is why he shouldn't play point guard with the second unit and is why we need NANDO in there rather than Neal.

You can say you prefer Manu's playmaking to Neal's, Mills' or De Colo's... but to bring Parker into this debate won't get you much credibility, opinion or not.

I'm not the only one that'll say that they prefer Manu's playmaking to Parker's playmaking abilities. It's a fair comment, mate.
