    And he straight up admits that that Golden State game right after the all-star break was him being pissed about not being selected.

    I thought Bleacher Report was not credible? Garbage writing I've been told.

    Rather than judging the source site, wouldn't it be more reasonable to judge the content?

    Off the subject, but bleacher report has become a fairly good source for sports news. Way better than it was like two years ago.

    They used to be the equivalent of a vanity publishing site with their content coming from unpaid fans. They got bought a couple years ago and now have paid writers on staff. It's only natural that the quality of the articles would improve. They still aren't perfect, but light years better than the cringe worthy site they used to be. That title now belongs to FanSided.

    You're right to call certain posters out here.

    For myself, BR is like Quick - sometimes the articles are great, sometimes not so much. My personal objection to BR is that it seems like every article on there has multiple click-throughs, which I despise.

    It will be fun to see some posters tear it apart when it's not a unicorn fluff piece on the Blazers.

    You mean the Blazers aren't full of unicorns and were not winning it all?

    What kind of fan are you any how?

    The only fluff around here is......

    NM nothing there. dead end.
