Quote from: tower912 on Today at 03:51:26 PMHamilton has really good footwork in the post.  Isn't making anything, but has the post moves.  Nobody in the NBA runs low post offense.  The international game even less.  Low post offense is Sears.
Good grief! Hamilton has great footwork? Ok. BUT, He's overmatched in high major college basketball. D-II more his level, which is still full ride sports. His 'good footwork' might work for him there. We cheer for all of them...but we aren't blind. Hamilton is overmatched.

Quote from: Zog from Margo on Today at 04:41:51 PMSo it's best to have a team of players incapable of taking advantage of mismatches. Making Gold incapable of exploiting a size advantage doesn't seem like smart basketball to me. Glad you like it.
Gold taking it to the basket 8 times last night is what I have been waiting for.  Probably too much to hope for, but that is the exploiting of mismatches we need to see.

Quote from: K1 Lover on Today at 01:19:10 PMWhat a horrible take. Liking Jimmy Butler and being able to recognize distasteful, racially charged behavior are not two mutually exclusive things.

There's a clear difference between calling someone a "white boy" when you have the established rapport and friendly history with, versus going out and transparently using the term as a blatant insult to a complete stranger. Regardless of how universally acceptable an expression is, it's the intent with which it's used that matters. And in Jimmy's case, it's clearly anything but positive.

You know, there was once a time when any black person in a racially diverse environment had been called the N word in both complimentary and taunting fashion. I guess we wrong about tabooing the N word. Black people should've just unclutched their pearls.

K1 you are correct on this and thank you for speaking the truth. Really bad look for Jimmy.

Ben is infinitely better than CH. The choices of Shaka are beyond bizarre.

Stop it.

Yes, they're so happy watching crappy bball and well so miss their fifth year with us. Get a grip, bub. There are many angles to it and I have zero problems with playing any of them if the angles all add up full circle.
