I expect when I’m wrong about something basketball related to be called out as a moron. I don’t take it personal. That’s how my friends and I operate. Maybe we’re all assholes. I’ve been teasing Mavs2019 about Julius Randle forever. He’s not butthurt about it. Mak is the only person on here I actively dislike because he contributes nothing other than trolling. That and he would abuse his mod powers to troll. RE: Jalen 'The Apostel' Brunson: Holy Moly - Branduil - 11-13-2019 He's seriously regressed so far this year. I hope it's just a sophomore slump because the Mavs need him to be a legit rotation player and a pressure reliever for Luka.

I expect a ton of "hot sports opinions." We're just from different worlds. I don't think I'm taking this stuff any more seriously than you. I don't mock people or expect mockery. I'll make fun of myself for getting something wrong, and have friends where we'll make fun of each other for stuff, but I don't expect someone that I don't know well to think it's funny if I call them an idiot. And I prefer good discussion to mindless hot takes any day. But hey, whatever, I like some stuff you say about basketball. So there's that.

RE: Jalen 'The Apostel' Brunson: Holy Moly - Fuerza1 - 12-08-2019 Jalen "Bench Him for Barea" Brunson: Best net rating on the team, best defensive rating, and second best Player Efficiency Rating on the team at 17.7, which categorizes him as a "Third Offensive Option." RE: Jalen 'The Apostel' Brunson: Holy Moly - StepBackJay - 12-08-2019 Looking forward to maybe more Brunson tonight. RE: Jalen 'The Apostel' Brunson: Holy Moly - SportPsychMav - 12-08-2019 Brunson will play more because wright is out.

I recommend reading "The Assassination of Tayshaun Prince By The Coward Rick Carlisle" for starters.

You don't think they will be that good? They are currently the 3 seed in the West and have beaten almost every team in the top 8.(11-12-2019, 07:07 PM)fifteenth Wrote:(11-12-2019, 06:32 PM)jesusshuttlesworth82 Wrote:(11-02-2019, 03:55 PM)audiosway Wrote:You ever get tired of this schtick?(11-02-2019, 12:54 PM)SportPsychMav Wrote: He doesn't know his place yet. Same goes for most of the Mavs though.This is what I love the most about this team. They are this good and haven't even figured it out yet. They will be absolutely dominant once they do. Donnie has put together a beast of a team and now it's Rick's job to coach them up. Once they gel and know their roles this is going to be a fun team to watch. You must be fun at parties telling people about all of the times they were wrong. lol. Because I'm sure you've never been wrong. RE: Jalen 'The Apostel' Brunson: Holy Moly - donzingis38 - 12-09-2019 Jalen is fine. Has the right attitude and seems like a system-type player. JJ has been able to bring some energy off the bench whenever the team needed a boost, it just didn't work out tonight.

That's what this place is for after all right? To let everyone voice their opinions. His included. Besides, I'll be the first to admit I've pumped sunshine in the past. I had to do something to keep interested in the team. They were just so mediocre. I'm just not usually a negative person. Life is too short for all of that.(11-12-2019, 07:07 PM)fifteenth Wrote: audio doesn't do schtick RE: Jalen 'The Apostel' Brunson: Holy Moly - ClutchDirk - 12-18-2019 http://www.espn.com/nba/statistics/rpm Brunson ranked #20 in RPM...

The O is worse, but the D is much better when he plays. That is REALLY hard to do when you essentially play opposite a star player.

RE: Jalen 'The Apostel' Brunson: Holy Moly - DrMav - 12-18-2019 I keep seeing this thread with the topic title and I've been meaning to ask...The Apostle? RE: Jalen 'The Apostle' Brunson: Holy Moly - DrMav - 12-19-2019 Nothing Holy about that performance tonight. At this point, Brunson is a quality backup who really needs to grow his decision making in pressure situations. Not to say he necessarily has to be off the court in clutch scenarios, but he can’t be as the primary ball handler right now when the game is on the line.

It is what it is and it is great value for a rookie minimum salary RE: Jalen 'The Apostle' Brunson: Holy Moly - DrMav - 12-19-2019 (12-19-2019, 07:27 AM)omahen Wrote: Did anyone really think he is more than that? It is what it is and it is great value for a rookie minimum salaryI think evaluating Brunson with his basketball pedigree thus far (NCAA player of the Year, 2x National Champion) and below-average athletic measurables by NBA standards, you would expect to find a guy that gets by on his BBIQ and making the right play that another player wouldn't. I think that's what we get for the most part which makes it striking to see his BBIQ flee from him in situations where it is needed most. |
