    Logical fallacy: appeal to popularity.

    You have like 6 of your friends on a forum agreeing with you. Doesn’t mean much. My opinion is not a rare opinion among national analysts.

    Dame has had much better periods of facilitating for his teammates. This year has not been a good period. He hasn’t been atrocious or anything, but he’s been sub par in the narrow aspect of facilitating for the team and energizing the team this year.

    Go ahead and act like this is a crazy opinion. It’s not. You just can’t dispute any of it.

    So lets see some reasons why we are going to lose this game. These are the games we lose. No dame is a reason, but how else will we lose this game?

    I gave two very measured counter arguments. What you wrote was "dumb" and "shit". You've not given a single counter argument to either of those points. Looks like I'm winning.

    Just interpret “Reality Incoming” to mean “We gonna find out what Melo can do”. If he surprises me it won’t be the first time I was wrong. We got him now so I hope he lights it up.

    I can't fucking believe Carmelo is a Blazer. Now I'm trippin' out. I hate this guy. But now I have to love him. It's so weird.

    The start of the melo era.


    I am very very very cautiously optimistic. If he is here in january that means were a playoff team. Otherwise bye bye thanks for nothing.
