It's very easy to not participate in a discussion you don't want to participate in.

I agree, it's also very easy to point out stupid discussions where everyone already agrees but still argues.
I'll stick with my opinion on Gold.  He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.

Huh. I usually ignore discussions I don't like.

I like this one, so I will stick with it.

Did I say I don't like it? I remember saying that it's scoopish and stupid.

The amount of stupid discussions I see and choose to pass on far exceeds the number I participate in. This on just happened to clear that arbitrary stupid bar where I felt it was worth my time to point out just how stupid it is.

Mark Anglavar.

Wonder if it's fair to compare shooting stats from the 80s/90s to today, given how modern NBA offenses are structured to give shooters good looks, which was far less the case back then (see: triangle offense).

So we’re talkin’ gunners rather than shooters.

All the other guys one would consider as best shooter ever, other than Steph, Klay, and Ray Allen are "just shooters".  Yes, this means Dame is not even in the discussion because he's much more than just a shooter but he's not even close to the top 3. 

Bird, if he played in today's game, would probably have Steph-like stats, but he played in a different era, and that's that. 

If I'm teaching a kid shooting form?  Ray Allen.

Yes.  By Herman.

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.
