That's very impressive. You could have your own show like Skip Bayless.
You want to know what's funny? Edwards' 3rd year numbers are almost identical to Andrew Wiggins' 3rd year numbers in every way. Literally the same thing is happening again. [Reply]

Now you can argue that Wiggins coasted for much of his career in this regard, but not the fact that he's always been good at defense when he actually tried.
Kevin Love shut down Steph Curry in the 16 Finals. He's good at defense. [Reply]

And Denver is going to win by 9 as KAT bricks a wide open 3 in the final minute.

Steph Curry shut himself down in last few games of that series and it was beautiful to watch. Despite being the greatest shooter ever, the guy's a massive choker under pressure and his numbers plummet in the clutch. [Reply]

Who could have seen it coming?
Are you giving yourself credit for predicting the Wolves would lose?
Anything else you want to pat yourself on the back for? Did you also make pee pee and doo doo in the toilet all by yourself?
You know what you didn't predict? The Wolves making the game interesting at least. Do you still wish you could be watching the New Orleans Slapdicks instead? [Reply]

That the Wolves would lose? Oh no, that was a foregone conclusion. It was for pointing out why the TWolves being tied at the end of the 3rd quarter was meaningless and why this game wasn't interesting in the slightest to any neutral fan watching.
And I'd have taken virtually any alternative in this series to watching KAT fold again and again and again. [Reply]

You keep bringing up KAT like it's supposed to piss me off. I fucking hate KAT.
Sorry the Wolves beat the Thunder and Pelicans, who both have rosters of absolute nobodies. Those were your only options, and all of the other teams were so shitty they didn't make the play-in. You have yet to say where this other "interesting" team was going to come from. I seriously doubt the Thunder or the Pelicans would have made the game this close. [Reply]

I don't know or care if KAT pisses you off, but he pisses me off. That was the point.

You're not wrong, the Thunder and Pelicans are certainly losing that game too.
I'd still much rather have seen SGA (a guy who has turned himself into a top 10 player already) than the TWolves doing what they have always done, yeah. Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving obviously too, but that ship sailed after their tank. [Reply]
