    The lines are also so blurred these days. A couple of those guys play better at PF than SF.

    Why did LMA only play 4 minutes? Was he injured?

    I’m just looking at a pure talent level. Scottie was a phenomenal defender but he doesn’t have half of the offensive repertoire as the guys I listed.

    They said gimpy knee, but who knows. Horford only got a bit of run, and people actually like him...

    He's not better than LBJ, but he's MOST DEFINITELY better than Durant, Leonard, George, and Giannis.

    Pippen only is a 7x all-star (over a 16 or 17 year career) and for his career averaged 16/6/5 albeit an all time defender but I’m sorry I’m not taking him over the men I listen if I’m starting a franchise

    I just bought tickets to the Houston @ Portland game March 20th. Between the CP3 late lay up fiasco and Dantoni being a punk in the ASG I’m sort of expecting a Dame revenge game.

    Plus, fuck the rockets am I right?

    I would say that obviously LeBron is, and probably Durant is better too. He is arguably in the same league as Leonard and George. To early to say with Giannis, in my opinion.

    To end the game, the team was out-scored 28 to 12 once Damian left the game.

    Good coaching.

    It's better than that. ESPN has that goal tend from Giannis (which probably should have been a block) and they show Steph standing up yelling. He was yelling because it was called a goal tend. It's like they didn't even watch the game.

    Dame represented very well. Reminded me of when Roy came out in a big way during one of his All-Star games.

    Even though I also have complained about the highlight choices that ESPN has made in the past, I'll never understand why people are surprised by it.

    I mean... this wasn’t even a highlight. It was a goaltend. They completely misrepresented what happened.

    honestly, I think ESPN (and similar websites/etc) are no longer for the hard-core fans, as much as they are for the "whats hot at the moment".

    So I no longer go their for highlights or even news.

    Pippen was better than PG, jesus christ.
