    I have basketball panic attack posts? I get passionate...mad if we are playing bad, but to describe it as "panic attack" posts is ridiculous. Somehow that comes into play with me being "triggered" by asking a question???

    How are you gonna tell me that watching Aminu play isn't excruciating for me? It is. It's my opinion and viewpoint. Might not be yours, but how can my dislike for watching a player be false? Makes no logical sense.

    Everyone has bitched about Meyers for ages. I guess I should've just kept it basic and mainstream by blaming the whipping boy.

    What he doesn't understand is EVERYBODY bitches. That's the point of different opinions on a forum. Otherwise what the fuck is the point?

    You don't seem to realize that it's super important that everyone respond to everything exactly the same way, and place the same amount of importance on things as everyone else does. Being slightly more or less emotional about something or expressing your feelings in a different way clearly means that you are an extremist.

    How can you be so calm? What are you, some kind of Vulcan? If you really cared about this team, those buildings would already be ablaze.

    Poser.

    Listen I know you like being a negative nancy but we don't even know how PG fits in OKC, same with Butler and Teague in Minny. Top 3 in northwest for sure just depends on how those guys fit and play on their new teams. You saw what we did with Nurk playing the limited time he did, imagine a whole season with Collins and Swanigan potential, you never know

    I don't know which would be more preferable, Olshey making a big splash, or Olshey doing nothing and getting to watch the meltdown.

    Probably the latter because I think the team as constructed is pretty solid. I'm not getting caught up in last years underperformance as a barometer for future success.

    The distance between the two is small.

    Meyers and Aminu are almost the same player in a sense. Neither plays to their strengths just in differing degrees. Meyers is just so much worse that Aminu looks ok.
