    It's insulting that Daniels was this close.

    I remember I asked Chuck Sworsky once why he was the ONE vote for Bargnani. He laughed and said, “Roy was going to win in a landslide anyway, I felt bad for our guy!”
    Was a douche nozzle!

    Yeah, anytime the only dissenting vote for one of these awards is from a "journalist" for a guy in his/her local market, it's absolute bullshit.

    Except...his argument is reasonable and valid. The advanced figures do favor Kessler, by a LOT. There was no valid argument for Bargs.

    Fuck advanced stats FAMS! It should be who would you rather have on your team.

    Then I guess it depends on what your team needs. It's arguable that Kessler could help this Blazer team more than Banchero could.

    So if you were Utah and you were offered Banchero straight up for Kessler, you would turn them down? This isn't a trick question it's a question with an obvious obvious answer to see if you're committed to following this nonsense through or not.

    Paolo has the potential to be a multi time MVP, I don't think anyone thinks that about Walker Kessler.

    This is all irrelevant because Shae will be considered the best player from this draft in a few years.

    I think due to the multifaceted nature of Paolo's game that they both will likely be perennial all stars, I think both guys could win the MVP and be in the conversation for years. Besides Paolo though, I don't see anyone that's going to be considered as good as Shae.

    Wow, i sure hope he's that good. And Shaedon very well could be. It sure looks easy and natural to him.

    No wonder you’re always complaining about this team and league. You set yourself up for failure and letdown with this type on mentality.

    What’s the point of coming on here if you don’t have opinions and a desire to share them?

    I have opinions and share them, but I do it without BLASTING and tearing apart our favorite team EVERY day and night.

    You don’t offer serious opinions. You work for the team. You come on here with your FAMS and your photos and nobody takes you seriously. I wouldn’t post my honest opinions either if it was my employer and I hung out with the players.

    And the best part is, I don’t care to be taken seriously. Sad thing is when members on here that actually DO.
