"retarded post by @jwquick, who has always bordered on trashy and insignificant" - Me later retracted as it was unfair to retards, they dont deserve that level of bashing.
tbh im not sure retards is actually pc anymore, or was ever, but its a fair comparison in hindsight, albeit a little harsh on retards.
I thought it was an old school NBA playoff foul. And it was at a key point, and did good for the Blazers. I didn't think it was cheap. I liked it.
Two takes from this thread. Quick will probably find it much tougher to get anwers to auestions out of blazer players mov Ng forward. This might cost him his job because of the potential alienation he jist created for himself. And... that dude actually left the forum because he couldnt handle his insult being edited????? Hahahahhaahhaha Lmmmmaaaaaaoiooo Snowflakes!!!!!make!!!!me!!!!laugh!!!!!!! Hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahaha
That sucks. I love HCP's posts. Every single one of his 800 thousand posts has made me laugh. Every single one.
I think maybe you got that backwards. That was a career limiting move by Quick. As a reporter covering the team, the last thing you want to do is alienate the players. Now, not only will C.J. freeze him out, the other players will, too. Quick just cast himself as their enemy, someone not to be trusted. It was an exceptionally stupid thing to do. Especially since there isn't an ounce of truth to it. BNM
What's weird is that Quick made the hill he died on. I can see calling out a player for something real and having the player get pissed. But Quick made that shit up.
He seemed like he had some vendetta or axe to grind with C.J. and then remembered his job depends on having access to the players. Ironic that someone famous for peaking through closed blonds would question someone else's ethics. BNM
You could be on to something there... Everyone is assuming that Quick's tweet refers to CJ's on-court play, but read it again. "Frustration foul by CJ, who has always bordered on cheap and dirty." It's merely insinuated, through lazy writing, that he's a cheap and dirty player. We can only hope and dream that CJ kicked Quick's ass in private at some point, or pulled a chair out from under him, which is why none of us agree with the false narrative that CJ's a dirty player.
The one other thing I would say about this is I think Quick was just integrating his feelings and not actual results. And I don't think he is the only one that feels like CJ may be one of those fake tough guys. I have had a friend and at least one random message board personality on another site casually mention that they think CJ has a bit of a fake tough act going on. But that doesn't excuse what he Quick said at all. Still very wrong. Because even if CJ puts off that vibe (and if he does it certainly isn't on purpose imo) then he still isn't what Quick said he his.
I don’t know the guy so it’s hard to judge his personality, but there is something about CJ that comes off as phony to me. He didn’t have this energy earlier in his career. Or maybe he was just hiding his true personality until now. But yeah, that doesn’t mean he’s a dirty player lol that’s just crazy and even crazier how stupid Quick was for tweeting that.
Quick's tomfoolery aside I can actually see what he's referring too. CJ is soo bad at physical Defense he often swipes wildley and fouls. I wouldn't call it Dirty, just Shitty.
What I saw in the couple fouls CJ was more of frustration fouls and trying to send a message much like the game was played before the NBA decided to make it pansy ball. I'm all for protecting the players but it has gone way overboard with so many ticky tack flagrant fouls being called now days after reviews.
