    I don't need to. I simply don't care. You must need validation...

    Don't come to me for that...

    You do care or you wouldn't need to inject your opinion about Simmons literally everywhere that talks about him.

    Yes. Yes I do believe this.

    Stotts did not coach D and again, CJ has always been a willing defender. So... Again with your false equivalences?

    Weird debate tactic...

    No, actually I don't care about what the Bensexuals think about his D. It is of no consequence to me.

    I was never a fan of Stotts, but come on man...... You don't think Stotts coached ANY defense?

    CJ is one of the laziest defenders on the team. Right up there with Melo. He was one of the worst offenders of giving up corner threes.

    This is a construct created by you. Decolonize your mind.

    This is obvious to basically everyone but the CJ-Sexuals who don't want him traded for an All-NBA talent. I guess the Bensexuals are bi-coastal where as the CJ sexuals are just an Uber drive away...

    Better than always being condescending to those who deviate from your own…..

    I don't think Illmatic is condescending at all. He's one of the more mellow posters on here.

    I haven't seen Illmatic condescend to anyone, other than those willfully not attempting to understand his points which are usually quite clear, even if I don't agree. My only beef with anyone has been an unwillingness to explain their "WHY" in a short summation despite innumerable comments that could fill a section of the Library of Congress. Once I understood the general points, all of which are boilerplate for the Ben haters, I had no more interest in engaging because I knew those points and disagree. I find you to be reasonable in your posts and even when you get heated it's clear what you mean. There's only one real troll around here who is just trying to stir shit, and no it's not Dviss he's just passionate about his position and I respect him I just was frustrated with his refusal to explain his position.

    Now that I know it, and they are as I thought all points I've heard a million times and disagree with, I'm over it. The only time I see Ilmatic sound condescending is when he's explained himself ad nauseum and people continue to misrepresent or willfully fail to see his point. It's a common trait among sports fans. As they say, opinions are like assholes, we all got one and all sports fans kinda are one. :D

    im not gonna rehash shit but not everyone is the same. Some people get the bulb turned on through a flick of the switch. Others need to change the bulb. Not everyone thinks alike. Ive just been in situations where it felt if i didn't understand or agree, im inferior. All good. Like i said. If i had a real issue id put him on ignore but i like many of his posts.

    Yeah, I feel ya. I don't find most posters on here condescending, giant dicks sure, but not smug assholes. Well, with one exception.

    This might be the contrast though from years of purgatory on LittleBitchEdge. There smug assholes are a dime a dozen. And its a bakers dozen too.

    Dammit, I was just getting won over by Dviss, JoshuaHall, BonesJones and Buffalo Custard; this could put me back on the fence. Of course 1. it's highlights. 2. It' not good opponents. 3. No word on how much he is working out.
