    That's an interesting reply. Tell me more.

    And, dude, the whole conversation that you jumped into was because of Edey in relation to Clingan. In fact, you actually responded to that directly at one point (although it was barely in what could be considered a sentence, but still).

    My suggestion is if you can't understand English or are 8 or can't keep track of your own posts, post less. It'll save you time and aggravation.

    Buddy, you keep calling me aggravated but you're the one getting so defensive because you can't actually defend your positions and you're getting your panties all up in bunches because people don't think Edey will translate to the NBA. I've been laughing at your responses ever since you replied with personal attacks. It's honestly hilarious.

    You keep mentioning Clingan, but my evaluation of Edey has nothing to do with Clingan. I told you why they think Clingan will translate and Edey won't and you're getting manic about it. It's a message board so I thought I'd contribute to the discussion and you're getting upset about it with countless paragraphs attacking me instead of defending your position. You need a mental health day. Treat yourself to a spa and get off the internet if you don't want people challenging your troglodyte ideas.

    Your comprehension skills are pretty piss poor even for the internet, I must say.

    You keep trying to argue points no one is arguing. I've posted that and you didn't understand it. I explained it with examples and you didn't understand it. And here you are doing it again. You are trying to tie people to positions they haven't taken and just keep doubling down on it.

    BTW, I'm replying to a post where you said you told me why Clingan will translate to the NBA and Edey won't, but in your previous post you just said the only one talking about Clingan was me. Which is it? This is what I mean that you lack the ability to keep track of what you've even been saying. I think you just want someone to talk to, because, IIRC, a lot of people have you blocked.

    I'll chat with you on here, but it's not going to be on the terms you want. If you keep trying to go off on false positions and equivalencies, I'm just going to go right back to the actual discussion.

    Before I post my analysis on Edey's game and how it translates to the NBA. I want to ask Amiricon. What does your moniker mean or symbolize?

    Without a doubt, no questions, literally the worse Men’s NCAA Tourney I’ve ever watched.

    There’s a reason a kid who averages under 5 points and 4 rebounds declared for THIS draft…. Bronny might just get picked out of thei “talent” pool.

    Except nobody accused you of those positions. You keep repeating yourself like a fragile victim. Buck up. You're not.

    Try reading it again. I said I wasn't bringing up Clingan but gave you the argument as to why Clingan is considered a lotto pick and Edey was not. It's not hard. Try to keep up. I know people who have blocked you too but that's not germaine to the discussion.

    I don't have terms. Just don't get defensive. It's okay to disagree on the points but no point in personal attacks. It shows your insecurities unnecessarily.

    @AmirIcon @PCmor7--it's been an hour since the last post, so hopefully you are both done...but just in case you're not, both of you need to stop with the personal crap. And I'm not interested in arguments from either of you claiming that you've done nothing wrong or that the other started it or anything else. I don't want to read any more posts about someone's insecurities, or someone crying, or someone is a child, or someone is fragile, or anything else that indicates or suggests that the other has a personal failing or character flaw.

    This needs to be over.

    You have a cute profile picture and I concur. It's not my fault I have the Benjamin Button disease. I'm typing this with my baby fingers.

    From what I’ve heard, Edey has a great work ethic.

    If that’s true I would couple that with what I consider his “Edge” type attitude. The guy plays with a chip on his shoulder.
    Good work ethic and the will to improve/win could be the thing that works for him?

    So many of the best men's players do one year college and then head for the draft. So teams of inexperienced or second rate players. Women stay four years during which they get better and teams have time to cohere.
