Ersan: I don't blame him either but here's the thing, he's not any of those guys. He may average 30 a season but they'll have a losing record and that's a fact. The solution, add someone better or on Par and he'll still be a running mate or second fiddle.
Ooh and Westbrook wall and kawhi didn't break out last year mate. Losing record or not from your ESPN professional projections, he's not going to have it all his career. LeBron didn't have it, KD didn't, Curry, Harden and Westbrook didn't. Easy on the salt, there! And my breaking out meant their best season. Wall came from a 10th spot to an EC semis. Kawhi went from 10th best to 3rd best, Giannis got the MIP and Westbrook, well won the MVP with a triple double season. All having to lead their teams on a solo package last season. Hope this is clear enough for you. |

Ersan: Lol! If that's what Kyrie wants, trade him for something reasonable. LeBron is still going to sweep the east so it doesn't change much. Problem is instead of adding a piece to beat the warriors now you have to settle for winning the east.
But Kyrie trying to carry a team, he does know he was 0-9 without LeBron Last year right? Or maybe it doesn't matter if he's MVP since that's obviously what he's after. If you want to be the best, you have to lead. Westbrook, Giannis, Wall, Kawhi are some names that broke out last season. All of them had better regular seasons than Kyrie. If he doesn't get a team to call shots, he'll always be second fiddle. With his skill, the team is bound to grow. I don't want that rarity of skill not to be one of the greats. 2 years from now, he'll still be called that LeBron's teammate. I don't blame him at all. He already got a ring |
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 3:54am On Jul 22, 2017 |
Eruditor: Ring in hand. What he thinks he needs now is legacy.
Russell just won MVP and Kyrie is not on the top 10 list neither did he make the all NBA. If he continues this way, perhaps he fears he would still be in LBJs shadow and not become much but a coattail rider.
I pray Klay Thompson does not catch the same spirit.
I agree with everything you said i.e about Miami, NY etc. Why do I feel them shopping for Rose also fueled this exit? When Klay Thompson gets one more ring, he's walking out of Oracle Arena like a cat on a runway. This one is sure. Lol Anything Kyrie is doing should just be in the East. 11 teams in the West are already fighting for playoff spots already. Jeremy Lin has a better chance of making all star than the MVP next session. Let him just stay in that conference for posterity sakes. |
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 10:13pm On Jul 21, 2017 |
Eruditor: Now I see why they were looking for D-Rose.
Kyrie is trying to move to San Antonio? Hmmm.
Well let us see what would transpire in the next few days. I wonder what happened though. This trade will put East back in a little bit of competition and Warriors on their toes. Love, if traded could put LeBron back to rookie days. The reason? Kyrie wants a chance to be the go to guy, but then again Spurs ain't it. The others in the list: Knicks and Heat are the teams he can perform at his peak and master his leadership and skills. But can he fight for ECF with Porzingis and Whiteside kind of players? Uh uh It's no news stars don't like playing with Bron. Regardless, Cavs still remain the best place for him if he's still chasing a ring. If not, he can end up in Shanghai Supersonical Wizards for all I care. |

donbenie: UI is a very big factor when choosing a Smartphone as some people will only use VANILLA Android and some will not Touch TouchWiz even for free and in Samsung's case a lot of streamlining and features has gone into making TouchWiz a much more enjoyable and Lag free experience on their recent devices compared to older models like the Note 4.. such maybe obtaining with a Custom ROM but how many of your average Smartphone user knows next to anything about how to go about that.. New Touchwiz or Grace UX or whatever may have less lag but it's slow compared to vanilla embedded phones. I use s7. I know what I'm saying |

And there's nowhere I said you mentioned j7 is better than s6. Okay. Humor me a bit. If you had 80k like the poster, which one will you buy? Note 4 or A5 or J7? |

kingreign: having owned a 2003 Toyota highlander 2.4l i4 as a daily car for 4 good years without ANY challenge and then sold it to another person who uses it till date, id tell you the truth, you're about missing a very fine SUV.
Yes, they'll tell you, volvo is strong, volvo is balanced, volvo is opulent, volvo this volvo that.
Lets come to the basics; 1. reliability: highlander wins.
2. Practicality: highlander wins
3. Simplicity: highlander wins
4. Longevity: highlander wins
5. Speed: volvo wins (v8 and T6)
6. Offroad: NIL (highlander has 50/50 split awd system, volvo has 90/10 split awd system. (highlander is better offroad by a little margin due to lack of locking diff)
7. Ease of maintenance: highlander wins clearly.
8. Luxury: depending on trim, both can be a hard fought battle.
9. Safety: volvo has a long safety reputation but highlander has low fatality rates and is also very safe.
Summary, get a lexus if you want opulence but highlander for practicality. Leave the volvo, Is this how people give advice on NL?  The guy said simplicity. What is simplicity?  Luxury depends on trim? 2009 xc90 to a 2005 highlander? Aye mi. I didn't know trim now changes interior of a car. All these while, I thought it only adds options. This guy can't differentiate between features and luxury. Adding longevity and reliability in 2 different points?  Practicality? Both have third row seats. Volvo has more leg room and trunk space sef. Really?  And safety? With the way you wrote that sentence, I gave up.  What haven't I seen on NL?  Safe to say, I won't come here for car advice |

Every poster above plus the first are all mad.
you think unlimited bandwidth is cheap, abi? This is approximately $28 in USA and that barely covers 20GB there.
Another person has already predicted the volume of GB. Airtel hasn't even released any info about the price disparity, even the customer care agents don't know. It'll be most likely speed limit. But can't you people wait?
Spectranet is offering 12500 for 40GB and throttled night downloads. Nobody talk Ntel is offering 10k on a network that can't even download at 1MB/sec. Nobody talk Etisalat is offering 8k for 11GB. Nobody bats an eye
But one network that already offers good midnight plans already is trying to help people that use high volume internet and you're complaining. Who told you internet is free?
This is not for everybody. If you can't afford it, you stick to your Glo or cheat or whatever network. It's not by force

I've just seen an article which said him winning summer league MVP means nothing.
The two last rookies who won it were Damian Lillard and John Wall....yet someone still had the chutzpah to write that article.
Imagine if he had played rubbish in the Sumner league.
My hype is doing nothing to him...Cause I'm sure he will be beating players like Curry,Lillard,Wall and Irving..then you would all bow to greatness. Bros, easy with the hype. We know say hin good but you can as well give him the hall of fame with all this rubbish you're typing. And Kuzma shoulda been in the Summer League first team, probably share co-MVP with Lonzo.

SmooshCHN: No one's hating in him.. And your hype isnt doing any justice . He did well in the summer league but he'll be guarding players like Curry, Lillard, Irving and John Wall when the season starts. Even his father critic his first summer league game and for some, It's more of an expectation going into the league. Chill out Bruh.  You did hate on him though. Previously, when you brought out his stats of his first ever game. And you're still hating when you said he couldn't guard Dennis Smith while making assumptions about guarding the elite ones. I don't have any problem with him. I just don't see why people dislike an innocent guy that did NOTHING. It's not his fault the dad is a loud mouth (who is awesome tbh), not his fault D'Angelo cannot lead his teammates. He just plays the game He's shown a little bit of skill and has room to grow. He doesn't need the "it's just summer league" speech for a player that will be starting as a PG for a franchise. He needs to work on his turnovers, shooting and footwork. But, he's a ROOKIE. Man doesn't need all this hate for someone who hasn't even played an NBA game. Just saying... |

More complete player than Nadal? You see why you need to watch tennis. If you're talking about grand slam distribution, you may be pardoned but even that isn't complete cos Federer hasn't gotten 2 grand slams in each tourney as Nadal.

About d injury things dey both are facing one injury or d other. Even tennis great respect d artistic and master display of great tennis by d tennis great. Nadal is great but after roger We're saying the same thing here. Federer got limited only last year. Before then, Djokovic and Nadal dominated him. Injury limitations to Nadal made Federer King. Same as: Mcgrady in NBA De Lima in football We can conclude that Federer is the all time great. But will he be if Nadal were as fit as him? Most likely not Nadal still got at least 2 more slams to win, Federer probably one more |

Yello1: I beg to disagree. Remove clay from nadal and u will be left wit 5major. Remove grass from federer and u will still hav 10 majors, federer is over 5years older dan nadal. That fed guy is a talent from God Lol. You haven't seen Nadal play then. Even Nadal beats Federer on grass. It's the injuries that limit him. He's 5 years younger with 4 less grand slams. Go figure |
Sports › Re: Roger Federer Wins 8th Wimbledon Title by Decale: 5:56pm On Jul 17, 2017 |
9jakohai: Good one from Roger, though for me this might be the last Major he wins.
He had to take a long break to rest body before playing in Australia earlier this year, and even took it a bit easy before Wimbledon.
I don't see Roger winning much after this year. Same for Venus Williams on the women's side. Nadal has at most 3 good years left in him, ditto Djokovic . Federer hasn't been winning "much" since 2012 anyway. He had it easier this grand slam but he's worthy. Don't underestimate Nadal. His injury worries have limited his greatness. I dare say Nadal would have same number or more grand slams than Federer if he were that fit. You're speaking about a guy that has broken similar records as Federer with fewer tournaments and still boasts of 15 titles, 2nd best. The man is an unrelenting Martina Hingis. Djokovic is a wimp and has shown lack of strength ever since his career grand slam. |

Education › Re: It is actually 'Biscuit Bone', not 'Brisket Bone' by Decale: 12:20pm On Jul 12, 2017 |
Cinderella5: Op is unteachable. While you were busy defining brisket, did you bother to look up brisket bone? Check the dictionary if there is anything like biscuit bone. You will only see biscuit made in the shape of a bone .
A brisket bone is a soft chewable bone.The image below is beef brisket bone. Nothing like biscuit bone. Op is half smart. No dear. You are the one wrong A brisket is a muscle. The bones beneath this brisket are your sternum and ribs. Now, what makes the bone soft when you cut off a brisket is the ensiform cartilage and other cartilages present around the sternum and ribs. Every bone has its own name. In this case, sternum or ribs. What gives it the soft chew is the cartilage. It also applies to humans. If the biceps muscle was stripped with a soft bone, it wouldn't be called biceps bone. Both brisket bone and biscuit bone are "nicknames" for the bone beneath the muscle, Brisket. Your post is in the first page and people reading it will get influenced with your false statements and directly attack the poster who's technically correct. It's already happened.

Allergic: This is the best comment I have read so far... How can you review and criticize something you have never used?
Like this guy said, these cars are never for careless people. I am on my 3rd BMW, I have used a 7 series, and i am on my second 3 series.
I wouldn't say which is better in these three but Audi has major short comings in this class. Best thing to do it put model head to head, some BMW will win and in other Benz will win .
Like: BMW X6 and Mercedes-Benz GLE - BMW wins here. BMW 7 series and Mercedes-Benz S class - Benz wins here.
In terms of reliability, they are same because they use very similar engineering approach.
At the end of the day, it's boils down to preference. I prefer BMW because of the aesthetics and handling. I have driven couple of Benz and BMW handles better.
You're not supposed to comment here if you haven't used any of these 3 cars. Actually, BMW and Audi reliability are close. Audi just tends to be better here in Nigeria cos of cheaper parts. They have the same paucity in number of engineers here Benz has always been in top 5 brands when it comes to reliability. Some models may not get in their first year but it shoots up in successive years. This is why Benz is more used as cabs and added to government/business type of cars. Audi is second line here when it comes to government cars BMW is adequately reliable but the main purpose is for its handling. |
