Baffled and Confounded by the "Hickson Situation"

Perhaps Mags is ready for the question. How is LA efficient?

 

Are you saying he's not efficient?

If so, what makes him inefficient?

 

Um, no.

Anyone who tries to rationalize LMA being on the same tier as MN's KG or Duncan is out of their mind.

Keep digging that hole, Mags!

 

Blah blah blah. I pull those stats from the various resources available on the internet.
Re Nic - I've always thought he should be the 3rd option on a team, and he shouldn't be, and has never been asked to be a leader. Now you're faulting him for not filling a role he hasn't been asked to perform? He's exceeding my expectations despite his decreased efficiency. But I've always seen a few holes in his game - example, he's not a great dribbler. I call 'em like I see 'em, not how I wish they were.
And seriously - just stop with the all-star crap. I DON'T FUCKING CARE. Being an "all-star" is not a skill, it does not help you score more, defend better, or win more games.
My time's up - until tomorrow, or some other time.

 

The reason why I can't take Mags serious:

"When Fez is backing you up, you know it's bad."


Try me again, Mags!

 

Here blue9; let me use some of your bullshit strawman on you.

http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/batumni01/shooting/2013/

3-10 ft from the basket; batum is a dismal 31%. 16ft-inside 3; Batum is a terrible 36%. But what makes matters worse is the majority of his shots are coming from the 3 point line.

http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/b/batumni01.html

He is turning the ball over a terrible 2.9 times PER FUCKING GAME! He is shooting his career worst at 42% overall. You would think that he got this amazing contract; that he would perform according to his contract.

We should trade Batum now for 2-3 good pieces to build around while Batum's value is high.

 

So, you think he won't the answer the question as proposed to him? Bummer.

 

LMAO!!!!! Obviously your perception skills are off. I wasn't the one comparing KG and Duncan to Aldridge. That was Roytoy. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

And you rationalized this claim by bringing up stats.

Nice try.

 

Sorry when you asked that question; I wasn't on a computer. I was on my phone and digging up actual references would have been a nightmare.

Give me a minute and I will explain. I'm on a computer right now.

 

Really? Where?

 

I compared his FG% to the list of PF that made the all-star game in the last two years, minus David Lee, added Dirk and Love instead

Just for the record

 

He's Rasheed Wallace.

A player who shouldn't be your franchise player, and should be your 3rd/4th guy.

Exactly like how Detroit used him.

 

He's already the #2 guy

 

And that's the problem.

 

The Blazers need to add talent

I thought this was known?

 

They need a legit go-to guy.

LMA is not that. And nearly a decade in, he'll never be that guy.

 

I know and I got that comparison. I was just clearly pointing out how delusional Fez is. He must be on meds or something,

 

Yes they absolutely need that guy. They may just have it with Lillard. He definitely acts the part, no?

 

Id say coaches disagree with your assessment of dmc being better than lma Fez.

I'll take a group of nba coaches votes over a guy that said lillard was garbage during the draft process.
