I see a speck of light. :) Sounds like your admitting now that he quit in Miami.

Then come back on Scoop later in the morning and use some twisted semantics to prove you didn't 'quit'.



That's a bad analogy. If I called my boss and said 'I quit and I'm going to work somewhere else,' they wouldn't tell me "no, you have to keep showing up and giving max effort every day for years until I get exactly as much out of you as I want."

Depends on whether you are under contract where you have signed your name to work for a certain number of years?

Quote from: Hards Alumni on January 29, 2025, 04:21:37 PMYes, and I'm still correct.  Lamar is the better player, and it isn't even remotely close.

Not only is he the league's best QB, he is the league's best player, period.

You're just a stupid person who prefers vibes instead of facts.

You realize you are calling Lamar the greatest player in NFL history?

Brady is the GOAT. Mahomes is challenging him for the title. And you think a guy who has NEVER won a big game is better than both.

I think mommy told you that you were smart a few too many times. Parents lie to us - think Santa, the tooth fairy and "you're a smart boy".

I said early on that he hasn't handled himself well in Miami. But you are the one that made the claim, yet you continue to ignore it.

Hards is right. You're coming off as a meathead sports radio guy who is NBA casual.

No he's not.  He's talking about the 2024 season.  In which Lamar comfortably surpassed Mahomes in basically every passing statistic...Passing Yards, YPA, YPC, TDs, absolutely destroyed him in TD/INT ratio.  And that isn't taking into account rushing stats at all.

Mahomes absolutely has the better career and has been the better career player, but he wasn't this year and there really isn't any disputing that.  Brady may be the GOAT, but he wasn't the best QB in the NFL, much less the best player in the NFL in his years in Tampa.  Rodgers cleared him easily, but that didn't mean saying Rodgers was the best player in the NFL in 2020-2021 meant you were calling him the best player in history.

Maybe you actually realize that and thats why you resorted to some weird personal attack at the end.

Since this is an NBA thread, I heard Bill Polian thought Lamar should play PG instead of QB

He was a problem, not THE problem with that bulls team is my point.

Do we know for certain that Lamar ISN'T the best PG ever not to play in the NBA?

Unless Lamar goes by Ners on Scoop, we know.

I hadn't been on Twitter most of the day/night, popped it open probably ten seconds after Shams tweeted it (it was at the top of my timeline). I must have stared at the tweet for 45 seconds trying to figure out anything.

What a wild trade at the most random day/time possible. Stunning.

JWags85

I am absolutely dumbstruck by the trade.  The timing and everything is wild too, but the Mavs are punting their golden child for over 30 often injured AD?!

Also, while I'm sure this is the play for the Lakers next era, but this is gonna be a disaster for the end of LeBron there.  I don't see any way those 2 can coexist.

Is that really all that Dallas could get back?

For Bucks fans, if the Mavs said "Luka for Giannis?", you're doing that deal, right?

My answer would be "Can I interest you in a Lillard instead?"

Whispers out of Dallas is that concerns about conditioning and durability led to a reluctance to do a supermax contact.  Plus, Dallas is just spinning their wheels this season.   Mix it up, see if you catch lightning, free up money.

Not just whispers. Dallas has been unhappy with Doncic's approach to training for a couple years.

I'm super surprised.  You would think Dallas would get more.
