All my life I've been following sport this is the most bitch made athlete I have ever seen. No team should want this guy

Roland17:
Tatum come on man! That was a bad shot! Why wait for the double team to arrive.. The clock was already down to 5 seconds, make the move!

7/30

Roland17:
Can someone help N. Ogwumike with some lotion for those ashy knees!

Hahahaha be like say person show am your post. She added plenty lotion today

She's looking pretty hot though. Those legs longer than Lokoja-Kaduna expressway

afrodoc2:
This didn't age well.

E dey happen. Even all the Ole slander no age well today

The front 3 looking super fluid today. Nice dummy by Sane. That 3rd goal was smooth

Sane playing out of his mind today. More of this please

Ororo GOATNALDO doing GOAT activities
Atalanta are Italy's Tottenham. Rubbish cocktease of a team

2-zip. Should be more tbh

airmark:


Lordfalcao is one of the beloved sons of Apari Raumdeuter. He is the younger brother of A40, another dunce.

When will this useless asewon stop spamming my mentions. Always available for small talk. Ret@rd

What a golazo by Sane. Make this ref cancel this one nau tan ba bi e re

slimghost:
Bruno has been horrible tonight!

Hehehe.When I dey talk am here say Bruno na ghost when match don tie wrapper I be like drunken master

Roland17:
After Kyrie went down, who did KD play with? Please don't mention an injured Harden because we all know Harden was inconsequential when he was on the court.

Mba. Kyrie got hurt second quarter Game 4. Game 5 Harden played, don't tell me he was injured cos I ain't trying to hear that. If you're injured then don't play. If you're able to be on the court 40 plus minutes then you were fit enough. Plus Harden has dropped several stinkers when he was 100 % so no be today

Lmaooooo. You people want to shedibalabala again today

Roland17:
I reallly did wish my boy Semi stayed back but I can understand the trade and I hope he gets some playing time with the Bucks.
As for the Nets, I am careful not to push that narrative that they need 3 healthy superstars to win the Eastern conference. Last season, they pushed the Bucks to a game 7 in the conference finals with only KD.
Infact, they were a long toe away from the finals. I believe a healthy Harden/KD can get them to the finals.. I mean, it doesn’t mean they will not miss Kyrie.. Maybe a Kyrie/ KD is stronger than a KD/ Harden combo but Harden is a much better and improved defender/rebounder than Kyrie.
I am one of Kyrie’s biggest fan on this thread and want to see him back on the court where he belongs but until that happens, the Nets can push this thing with a healthy KD/ Harden combo.

Bros. There was no game KD did not play with either Harden or Kyrie so this only KD yarn is inaccurate

Roland17:
You are using game 1 of the season to make conclusions!
Harden is not the number 1 option on this Nets team. While I understand his history in the post season is not great, he is a 2/3 punch on this roster.

No. I have seen enough of Harden so whether he is second or third option they still lose regardless last season and this season. KD and Harden alone will not beat Milwaukee

This Jordan Poole dude is unconscious

Roland17:
Naaaa...They would have won the Bucks series if Harden was healthy and without Kyrie.. I mean they pushed the Bucks without Kyrie/ Harden. I won't read into the W for the Bucks but I think the Nets need to figure out that interior position and their TOs. When they switch everything, they look vulnerable inside the paint.

Naah. Harden is a proven playoff ghost. If Kyrie was healthy yes but Harden absolutely not and we saw it again today

birdman:
All the "hanalysts" that have been saying Nets can win without Kyrie, I am interested to see the about turn tomorrow

Lol. On banner night? They would have lost today even with Kyrie. Anytime you have 2 or 3 role players knackin double digits you're typically screwed

Roland17:
If you are George Hill, how will you feel? You get traded by the Bucks, they win the Championship the following season and they bring you back after the winning the Championship..

I wonder what was going through his mind during the ring ceremony

Well he's had his chances on good teams. That should be extra motivation. I'm quite intrigued by the Bucks additions. (Allen, Mamukeshvili, Ojeleye) young pesky 3 and D guys and then Divincenzo returning. Looks an awkward team on paper with no flash but they will give teams even more fits this year

Roland17:
Good to see Nwora get minutes for the Bucks as he hits the 3 to reply Harden

I have high expectations for him having a breakout year. The kid is a walking bucket.

Roland17:
Actually, this is what the owners of the NBA teams are doing! Since this situation started, have you heard of any real trade offers? I mean serious trade offers? None of the owners want a part of it and that is why he is still with the Sixers. They are pretty much calling his bluff at this point.

Its the height of selfishness after all that organization has done for him. Even more pitiful is that his agent cannot talk some sense into his head and make him realize he has zero leverage. And as overrated as I consider Ben I don't see why Philly shouldn't feel entitled to whatever compensation they deem fit even though I don't think he's worth it. This will definitely be talk of the next CBA. Selfish players and agents like Rich Paul who is enjoying LeNomad's umbrella for now

Roland17:
Salah my goodness…

Some Chelsea fans compared Hidden Fraudzard to this man. So irresponsible. Such blasphemy is why the fraud is already finished at 30

birdman:
This Simmons situation has gotten ugly. On one hand, I love Daryl Morey in the hot seat. On the other hand, I detest the lack of professionalism from Simmons.

I had this argument with Roland17 sometime ago on owners vs players. So far this offseason, he has been more right than me - Kyrie, former players defrauding NBA health insurance, and now Simmons. This is going to cost players at the next bargaining agreement.

If not laziness I don't see why any self respecting GM would or should trade for Ben Simmons, its not like he's a generational talent that you can win a title with as the focal point of anything. Don't these GMs have some sort of G-code? The reason Simmons can keep doing this foolishness is cause he believes some sucka team out there will still trade for him. If they all came out and made it known they want no parts of his nonsense in their organization he would either sit up or quit the game

Roland17:
I take God beg you, comot eye for where Malika dey

No be you just talk say Candace Parker and Liz Cambage na your WNBA wives..

You forget add Ros Gold Onwude and Cassidy Hubbarth even Kristen Ledlow follow

Khanben:
Just read that MPJ's max contract is not fully guaranteed. Just want to ask is D Ayton worth a max contract?
IMHO he is like Gorbert great in his role but not someone you give the max or like in the case of Gorbert the supermax. If Ayton can take the kind of deal Jaylen Brown took from the Celtics then that's cool. Even if he waits till next year I don't think the market will give him max money as RFA.

I don't think I'd give Ayton the max if I were GM but I can understand as a #1 pick why Ayton would feel slighted. Now did he want a 5year max? Cause a shorter duration would be a bit reasonable. He's not an offensive weapon like a Jokic neither is he a defensive pillar like Gobert plus bigs playing with Chris Paul tend to look better than they really are. I strongly doubt a contender in the open market will max him but a struggling team certainly can

Not really crazy about people losing their jobs over cancel culture even though Rachel calling out ESPN for lack of diversity was woefully inaccurate at best and idiotic at worst I can definitely get used to seeing Malika's fine ass everyday

Khanben:
Thanks for the list. But as an aside you do know in the USA the conservatives will kill any attempt to research some of these. For example I remember a school which introduced Yoga and meditation to students and saw great results with the students, but the religious cons went mental and claimed it was a religious ploy to convert their kids and killed it. Same thing will happen with traditional, Chinese, Reiko, Qigong etc.

Lol. Right wing religious nutjobs are a big problem. Vaccine they won't take, medical marijuana they will fight it. Fight Big Pharma too. What do they actually want bayi?

airmark:
Raumdeuter's intern don come with his livescore stats.

Hazard was Chelsea's player of the year in those years we won. Just face your useless Burnthisleaguedown and learn from your boss below.

Shut up Kellz. Didn't I tell you to only @ me when next Fraudzard scores a goal? You dey MENT? Who cares what useless polling booth award Fraudzard won? When my post clearly pointed out he was neither leading goalscorer nor assist provider for Chelsea's league wins. Obviously you dey dyslexic

Segedinho:
His goal is as important as mendy's save.

Likewise rudigers block and co..

I don't have any problem with Kai at all.

I criticise player based on what i see not what I believe he can do in the future.

Toh. So why una dey always hype and overrate Fraudzard's contributions to Chelsea even though the years Chelsea won the EPL he never led Chelsea either in goals or assists. Other players contribution were just as important

While criticizing do remember he is a 21/22 y.o still adjusting to a new league. Even players more experienced than Kai have done worse

Segedinho:
Point of correction. He didn't win d champions league for Chelsea.

The team did

Duhh. It's a team sport. No one player can literally win it but he scored the winning goal so technically he did win it for Chelsea

Roland17:
Baba, the supposed superstars of the WNBA have not been consistent for long periods for anyone to take the league or other players more seriously than they deserve. Outside of Grandma Sue Bird, B. Griner, D. Turasi, Vandersloot, Candace Parker, B. Stewart the rest of the supposed Superstars like Liz Cambage, S. Diggings Smith, N. Ogwumike, A. Wilson and the rest have been grossly inconsistent year after year! This is a big problem in itself.

You are right tbh. From year to year there isn't enough consistency and it makes my interest ebb and flow from year to year. The lack of athleticism is also off putting to a lot of people which is odd because I don't know how you expect women to be as athletic as men. But a lot of these players are good and are pretty sound fundamentally. At least the likes of Moore, Cambage, Stewart and especially Candace Parker

Roland17:
Maya Moore is definitely a player the leagues needs but I don’t think she returns to dominate especially for the positive publicity. The WNBA players have to play their way into the hearts on everyone by elevating their plays. They are too focused on the wrong things.

You don't get better by not doing something so I'd be shocked if Maya is back to her old self after 3 + years. Also the whole social justice thing, it's a mixed bag because the people who care for this agenda more often than not are not paying consumers of these sports or sports in general, They only show up when it's time for faux activism and to holler Gender kini kan kini kan

Roland17:
The NBA remains eternally grateful to The GOAT/ Bird, IT and Magic because that generation of superstars put in a heck of a consistent shift to make sure they kept the attention of viewers.. The money came afterwards! Infact most of those guys did not make money until after they retired from the game. All the money these NBA cats are reeling today are a product of the hard work of that generation of superstars.. They were relentless on the court and improved every season..

MJ made less than $130m over his playing career. This generation don't want nothing to do with delayed gratification. No knowledge of the economics and whether these franchises are even making profit. Just money money money

Roland17:
The WNBA has to do more in my own opinion. It is a very competitive sports atmosphere and nothing is given, you absolutely have to earn the attention. While the quality of play has improved, it still has a lot of ways to go. You don’t switch off quality during the regular season and then expect strong attention during the post season.

I think they are getting better support around but the onus is on them to lift the level of play, nothing compared to the NBA but better than what it is. With that being said, I am very happy for Candace, I was rooting for her heavily.

You are right. The regular season is mostly blahhh. I also hate that most of the conversation around most of the so called supporters is always centered around money instead of genuinely growing the game organically. Every thing is always Pay Us, More Pay. Every time you hear talk about the league it's always about these pandering male journalists or some of these radical feminists talking about Money and never about the economics of the game and how to make it more profitable, how genuine interest in the game can be gathered.

Nonetheless still feel it could use a little more coverage as that will help a lot as well. I remember the finals of the Lynx and Sparks 16 & 17 (I had a soft spot for Maya Moore and finding out why she's not playing and the sacrifice she has taken on makes me respect her triple fold. She's an amazing woman) it was one of the toughest contests of basketball I've seen ever

Khanben:
Mikal Bridges 4yrs $90million. Very good contract for both sides

Makes you wonder what happened with Ayton? I don't think he should be maxed out like Young or Luka but I do think they should have found a happy middle ground
