Roland17:
Yes sir, like I predicted. Brogdan will be the center piece but adding TimeLord to the deal just hurts. We are giving way too much for a 33 year old.

It was a no brainer. You know I posted this should be considered as well by your team

TimeLord had to go. You already have a logjam of bigs with Porzingis and Horford, plus TimeLord despite his injury record for me is the more important piece even more than Brogdon

Now I would argue y'all are the favorites in the East maybe the entire league self

popizaino:
Same game he won MOTM.

Who gave him MOTM? PopizainoFA?

popizaino:
Hope you won't turn amala if i name against Brazil?

Where is his goal or assist? Even key pass I will manage.

1,000 dribbles don't count

Roland17:
We are amongst the teams interested and actively pitching for Jrue. Brodgan is unhappy because of the trade that fell through earlier that involved Porz. Brodgan is going to be a piece if we succeed in getting Jrue.

The Bucks getting Dame doesn’t really bother me to be honest because while they get better offensively, they lose a lot defensively, especially from the top.

I think a guy like Jrue is exactly who you guys need. Brogdon is not a needle mover. Even if you overlook the injuries he's just not someone that influences title winning basketball

I think you should be bothered about the Bucks getting Dame primarily because Giannis now absolutely no longer needs to focus on halfcourt offense especially late in games, he can just hand the keys to Dame to take them home. No need to worry about getting fouled or anything.

Jrue did a horrendous job of guarding Jimmy anyway but more importantly they have Jae Crowder to guard the perimeter, the upside if Dame pans out definitely beats what Jrue has to offer as far as scoring in bunches

Broussard said something on First things First and it kinda made a lot of sense

If you're the Celtics do you consider making a push for Jrue? An older but instant improvement on Marcus Smart, better at Point guard cos he's a true point. Less pressure on Brown and Tatum and has Championship winning pedigree

Sane's form recovery is the only positive of this Tuchel era. It's already set in stone we must concede against any team with a half decent attack.

Attack will be our only form of defense this year

kendrick9:
Hazard is one player who doesn't do aimless dribbles.
Every dribble is meant to create a space or destabilize a defence.. just like Messi.
Infact he's the closest to Messi in terms of skill set...
Easily the Best dribber after Messi in recent times

Comparing Hazard to Messi is blasphemy and I can argue this nonsense comparison is partly responsible for his downfall that's happened at breakneck speed.

Nothing says aimless dribbling like 20 dribbles in two matches with 0 goals, 0 assists and 0 key passes vs Brazil and France

kendrick9:
And Ancelotti's tenure was a failure, doesn't matter how many CL he's won before in other teams.
Kovac was a novice...
Despite all that Bayern lost to two very strong sides in Real Madrid and Liverpool...
And Hummels wasn't directly at fault for any goals..
Your team improved after because one legged Robbery were out and replaced with youth.

Ancelotti spent a season and a month at Bayern. So his tenure was a failure but Hummels who spent 3 years wasn't. Which kin malaria maths is that?

Doesn't matter who Bayern lost to the important thing is that Hummels was front and center and did nothing to prevent the failure from happening.

His sluggishness in defense meant goals could not be prevented from scoring. It was under his watch Van Dijk dominated him. We had Coman and Gnabry and did nothing.

The season after he left we won the treble. Just to show you how much he was a failure at Bayern

kendrick9:
And whose fault you didn't make the final?
Remind me again your coaches during that period..
They were all sacked and their tenures described as failure.
In his own words he got bored and returned home.

Whose fault? Are you on ogogoro. All the coaches involved have won multiple Champions League titles before they knew what a Hummels was. Besides Kovac. Shey na Ancelotti or Jupp Heynckes you wan call.

Hummels is the only common denominator of failure in all these

Hummels level is a second tier team like Dortmund with no expectations for excellence. Alaba and Kroos went to Madrid to remain at high level, Hummels downtooled to Dortmund where he knew his mid performances would be tolerated and since he left Bayern he's been irrelevant, hell he might as well be retired

kendrick9:
He was the best player on the pitch against Brazil in 2018 WC and the only one who turned up against France
https://1xbet.whoscored.com/Articles/TcIakQS7u0q2vZW33A8xWQ/Show/Player-Ratings-Brazil-1-2-Belgium-Premier-League-trio-shine-for-Red-Devils[url]

Best player with no goals, no assists and no key passes? Negro please. The usual shakushaku aimless dribbles were the only contributions

Against France more shakushaku dribbles with no goal contributions

An overrated player through and through it's not coincidence Chelsea won Champions League before he came and he left and they won again.

Leaving Tuchel as coach just tells me we're punting on the season. The worst possible thing that could happen was for us to win that league title last season. Dortmund knew it too that's why they sold that match against Mainz. They were playing chess not checkers

raumdeuter:
Add CL to it.

Any important CL match in Hazard entire career where he turned up

The most overrated player in modern football history. I can argue it in the Hague.

Europa league and PL merchant.

This fraud went to the World Cup and was shining against Tunisia and Panama.

When they faced France and Belgium he did absolutely nothing then somehow scored in the glorified 3rd place friendly and won Silver ball. Elite fraudulence

raumdeuter:
The world cup Hummels won sef na Boateng carry am win am

I cant think of any major trophy that Hummels won without Boateng handholding him

Came to Bayern and did nothing. He's never won any major international trophy without Boateng by his side.

Against Korea o lule. Score own goal against France. Jabo for second round

kendrick9:
Ronaldo played in an All time Great Brazilian team..
Massive difference..
If Kdb had turned up for Belgium like Hazard did then maybe Hazard would have a World cup.
Kdb and Lukaku have never turned up in a big international game

Name the important World Cup match Hazard turned up in. Go!

kendrick9:
Ask him and I'm sure he will take that one title he won with BVB over the trophies he won at Bayern.
He came to Bayern, played a key role, won some trophies, got bored and went back to his favorite club...
Job done..
He wasn't chased out like boathand

Which yeye key role. Key role in what??

If he were elite he would have left Bayern and joined a Real Madrid, Barca or City like Alaba and Kroos not downgrade to lower level club

Job werey wo lo done. We only made 1 CL Semifinals throughout his stay meanwhile we won a Champions league before he came and after he left which BoaTank was a part of

Hummels will now retire with 0 Champions League while Boa has 2

O na na na na

Iye iye iye iye iye

O na na na na

Hmm how true is this? When we dey preach diplomacy them say we mouth dey smell. We dey show muscle like say no be Niger our plane go pass

chic2pimp:
The only thing that can make this trade not worth it in the end is Dame's health. You are basically pairing the League's second best shooter with Adetokunbo. Only Steph would have made this deal better. I don't think people realise how abysmal Jrue's half court offense is. Dude literally shot under 40%(with a few under 30% games thrown in) from the field multiple times during the last 2 playoffs and yes even during their title winning season.

Ahh yes. This part often gets glossed over Jrue I've never considered a natural scorer and thus whenever Giannis gets bogged down and Jrue has to become a volume scorer he's almost always inefficient.

In these tight games he's almost always going to go 7/24 or 4 of 19.

typicalgamer:
No matter how you look at it jrue is a big loss

Depends on how you look at it. When you look at the struggles the Bucks tend to have had in the last two seasons I can't for sure say I entirely agree if you're adding Dame to the equation

The difference maker for Jrue used to be on the defensive end but he got absolutely scorched by Jimmy.

Durability is the bigger problem here cos Dame has been quite prone to injuries lately.

I just think Dame's arrival takes the scoring load off Giannis so much that Giannis can now focus on being a lockdown defender whether at the rim or the perimeter thus making him more efficient as a scorer

Roland17:
Nia Long, you told us in Spring of this year that you have moved on so please act like u have moved on!

Shaming Udoka on SM and calling the lady by name now isn't going to change anything.

Worsestill, denying him access to his son because of what happened even makes u look worse.

Lmao. Woman tell you say she move on and you believe? You no watch Acrimony?

Woman can only move on for two reasons. Either you no make am and she has no use for you anymore

or

She found a better man

The minute she leaves you for dead and you come out shining and rising up, forget it. she will cast you, drag you and embarrass you in public and that goes for any woman but especially black women. She no send if it will hurt her or hurt the child. She will raise rebellious kids that will fight you in public when they're grown I mean just look at Boosie, 50's son.

If she knew an NBA team would still hire him I'm almost certain she wouldn't have left

Definitely did not see this one coming. Riley's hubris will ultimately be responsible for the Heat not landing Dame

Would be interesting to see how their perimeter defense holds up even though their interior defense would be the best in the league.

Ultimately with this trade Giannis must now be completely locked in. Offensively Dame should make his game even easier, can't build no walls anymore and Dame is a significant offensive upgrade on Jrue.

Funny enough at the All star game Dame was Giannis first selection and even LeGypsy was questioning why Jrue was not his first pick. Maybe there was a clue there we didn't pick.

There's talk of Jrue ending up with the Sixers but it's clear the Bucks wanted to avoid giving him a 200m+ extension and that's with rumors Jrue might be retiring at the end of his deal

Anyway a month till season starts

nihilistjnr:
It's not everything you discuss with guys that you share with your wife sha.
I agree with you that pillow talk is a thing, and there is no real way to keep secrets.
But there's definitely stuff I discuss with my guys that I can never tell my wife - and they do likewise.
As a matter of fact, for my friendship group, if we don't trust you to keep secrets, and your mouth runs anyhow, you won't be in the other group chat.
All of us may be chatting about football and BS on the main chat, but you'll only see the hangout pics on social media. If you're smart you'll get the hint that we don't really eff with you like that.

I tire oh. Even women do this. They have their chat groups as well

You have to be an extremely naive man to run to tell your wife every damn thing. Like every thing? Camaan

See what they're doing in Turkey. These people are collaborating with bookies. No gawk am.

There's this cute pharmacist babe with big bunda I was eyeing.

Small sports banter I remember vaguely talking about player selections in response to a tweet omo na so she message me ask whether I get odds. My mouth open I no fit close am. She said she won a tidy sum of money on first two months and since then na fire down. I weak.

I can't even advice her that she go wreck because with that bunda men will pay

BlueRayDick:
It’s a dog eat dog world out here .

Unfortunately most of the target audience are falling for the bet companies and their PR guys( the influencers).

On Twitter u see someone like Mayor Of Ekiti who rides BMX , Range Rover and some Dodge challenger kinda car all which are allegedly gotten from his proceeds of sports betting . He’s even nicknamed “Bookies Nightmare “

He claims to not have affiliation with any of the bookies but I doubt his claim is true. In fact, I think the bookies will be fooolish not to reach out to him to encourage him to drop betting codes peculiar to their sports bet company .

While people might win enmass when his games click ; people will also lose enmass most of the times his games go offside and the bookies will cash out big time .

If u see so many sob tales about people losing serious money on gambling on Twitter , u will know there’s a big conspiracy between those “punters” and bookies

There's a gambling explosion worldwide. This is not a Nigerian thing alone.

You should see babes. Fine fine babes wey I sabi wey be certified Tetescopher.

Even for Yankee you will see Fanduel, DraftKings, Underdog fantasy, Stake etc

Everyone is looking for money to supplement income and that's the bitter truth. Investments dey knock, crypto knock people are desperate man.

A lot of people are neurotic and take unnecessary risks, they forget these odds are just numbers and na humans dey play these games. I saw someone stake 600k on the City match over 2.5 and the game ended 2-0. NFL this past weekend Cowboys were 13pts favorites to beat the Cardinals they lost

I also believe these teams themselves are in cahoots with bookies so you just have to be smart and like every other vice do in moderation

afrodoc2:
Eleda wey don shayo sleep off. Gambling wrecks families to ground level.

Just this Monday a guy came to my place for his routine check. His BP was very high and I was wondering why cos that was unusual for him. He explained that on his way to the clinic he saw his wife’s car parked outside the gambling joint, after she had sworn never to gamble again (her debts nearly wrecked them previously).
Imagine, at the same moment the wife dey laugh and drink, gambling their family fortunes away, she dey give her husband Hypertension without knowing.

Man gambling na one thing if your woman sef dey follow you gamble. Aye yin ti baje niyen

You go home school tire

donjazzet:
If your woman cannot freely and comfortably access your phone, then there is a problem there.

It signals that there is something to hide or not want to be seen which breeds mistrust and this goes for both parties.

If you are in a relationship where both of you do not know each others pass words openly and freely. It means that relationship is unhealthy.

God forbid I go through woman phone. Wetin consign me and all that one. Wouldn't appreciate a woman going through my phone either. No be you buy am give me.

Don't bring me another man pikin is all I ask. Whether you cheat sef na your business, once I catch you I'm out. Life is hard enough already

seankafor:
my in-law, once my sister deliver, he go first carry the baby run DNA test..

I wonder why this isn't the first thing to do by every man out there.. unless maybe na money matters..

Na that route me go follow anyday I decide to born pikin

This is the smart thing to do. I don't understand the issue here, you run it like you run other tests.

Anytime this issue comes up you have women and Simp Mangina men saying the babies get swapped like it's a regular thing.

Meanwhile stats have said 30% of DNA tests show the alleged father is not the father.

If a man don't have money for DNA testing I don't know why he's busy getting women pregnant.

afrodoc2:
Apart from lack of head movement, he actually moves his torso slowly so he can't weave at all. Then his hand speed and timing are not great unlike Zhang whose hand speed and timing are wayyy better. He also couldn't decipher Zhang's southpaw code and that was ultimately what finished. Zhang rope-a-doped him into that right hand. From the 2 fights it is obvious that he is the way smarter fighter.

I think it's crazy that a 40 year old has more speed and timing even though he's 38. Overall just speaks to the lack of quality in the Super Heavyweight division. These guys are behemoths that really didn't have solid fundamentals.

Sold him that jab and sent the right hook behind him. He was completely exposed

Now I actually want to see how Zhang fares vs a Wilder and Usyk

This legit happened at Falomo today?

Glad someone saved him. pic.twitter.com/FdL7gtAbwC

Wetin dey sup for Naija? This is the second such video I'm seeing in three days. He's not serious sha. Falomo bridge? Na just Igbogbi e go dey and incur more Bills or make he jam aboki to adjust him bone

nihilistjnr:
I think it was unfair for him to face Zhang again after having his face broken the first time round.

I don't even think his head movement or lack off was the problem - the combo that slept him was a jab yo the body followed by a vicious right hook. Even if he was a snake, he wasn't weaving that

True that but Zhang was battering him all night. That was just the perfectly timed blow that hit him flush. He takes too many hits in fights

HW boxing is broken at this point. No one to even get excited about. The skill level is so poor.

@afrodoc @nihilistjnr

Did you guys catch the Joe Joyce fight? Even for his size the lack of head movement is crazy
