    As I’ve stated several times Zach and Meyers are not even close to the same player, it’s like comparing a mountain of dirt to a river of water. The simple eye test shows that one has fluid movement and high basketball IQ while the other is stiff and robotic with zero basketball IQ. They are both white though.

    Your posts look exactly like someone stating an opinion.. most people don't make jokes that last 3 paragraphs, and look like real opinions, especially on one of their first posts when nobody knows their humor. If everything you said was a joke, then that's strange, but so be it. I thought we were, as you say, discussing the game?

    Don’t leave dude, there are tons of users with many different views. I’m sure some of your posts opinions are shared by others. A lot of people do have a hard time picking up on sarcasm around here, many use green font to make it easier for people that don’t pick up on it. Anyway, welcome.

    Neither dirt, nor water, are white!

    Wait, so you're saying that me taking a post filled with opinions as serious is me having a hard time picking up sarcasm? You took his post seriously too. His posts were worded in a way that appears as the exact opposite of sarcasm.

    So you don't like Zach. How the hell am I supposed to know that you talking about his whiteness and being like Meyers is a joke WHEN you obviously don't like him? Jeez.

    Their projects have a good history of working out under Olshey. The only one that didn't was Meyers, so how is drafting "project players" a bad thing?

    We aren't talking in person, which is why I usually don't use sarcasm on here, and if I do, I make it obvious (Green font = sarcasm).

    So because the only thing you here is some uneducated rhetoric, you don't like him? Or is it his skillset?

    I’m not saying you took anything wrong, I just remember coming in here bashing on CJ and getting lit the fuck up, so I understand where he’s coming from. I don’t agree with his opinions but having more people with different opinions isn’t a bad thing.

    It was a joke. Bully? How am I bullying you? And I'm not named after Jon Jones. You insulting my name is bullying.

    I'd implore you to stay, but I can't make ya. Hope to see you back soon. We're all actually really nice here.

    I better not see any replies to "Yeah, he's so nice he gives reach-a-rounds".

    You fucks.

    Lol, you come on here stating something about skinny white guys in a negative light, comparing Collins to Meyers because of skin color, then get mad at ME because somehow it should be obvious that it's a joke? And then I try to have a basketball conversation with you, asking if you don't like him because you heard someone say he was "drafted because of one good game where he backed up an undrafted center" (which is uneducated), or if it was because of his skillset. But you can't move past the fact that your very-real sounding bias against white players wasn't taken as a joke. That's not my fault.

    What I said about you're name was a joke about you being negative since you came in here with a negative, troll-like sounding first post. If you can't handle a joke like that, this might not be the best place for you.

    You're acting like your getting attacked for your opinion... The only thing that I didn't like was the statements that apparently were a joke but was silly, trollish, and bashing Collins because of skin-color. So alright, I accepted that, and was trying to have a conversation with you by asking you why you didn't like Collins, but you freaked out.

    Someone tell me where it's obvious he's joking here:
    "Watching the Loyola-Chicago V K-State game, it has me wondering, who will the Blazers target to overvalue and trade up for as their next foundational player? I'm watching to see if any back ups have 1 good game. Or to see if there's a skinny white guy that they can over hype. So far no luck. I'm sure one of these guys can average 4 points."
    I mean, maybe if we knew the guy, bust as a first post? Seems like a troll-ish, shit-talking post based off skin color. And this dude wants to blame others for his "joke" not being received well. Lmao.

    So I'm supposed to take a rhetoric of "I watched a college game with some white players which made me wonder which overrated skinny white guy will we overvalue next, just like Collins (because he's white)" as a joke, but me joking about how "Less Than Zero" means negative is turning this into a crazy thing, while you freak out because that first quote in this post wasn't received as a joke? And I'm the bully? Hah.
