I'm So SICK & TIRED of Neil Olshey

Not until he starts calling other people’s opinions “stupid” or starts calling people names. His was a quality post.

 

I took my comedic act too far.
He uses friction for comedy here and i thought i was doing the same. Didnt go over well. Ive moved on.
With that said, i think he can improve his act, just like me.
Other than that, i cant take responsibility for doing anything to anyone on here. Im a married man!

 

Is it not possible to be bored and say "This shtick is tired and stupid"?

 

I’m not sure what you are talking about. I have noticed on many many occasions when somebody questions your post or opinion or states something you don’t agree with you call them stupid and other things just because you don’t agree. I’ve seen you get warmed about it. Go back to my post on here when you claimed I didn’t “tag” you in. I explained it there. Remember the one where the first thing you typed was “asshole” towards me.
Just trying to figure out why you put people on blast for having different ideas than you is all.

 

Because the soft Portland media won't bring up 10 straight losses. They won't question why a #3 seed got swept for the first time in 40 years.

Embarrassing 'journalism'.

 

These guys are reading some Olshey quotes at about 67 minutes - they are pretty incredulous:

I think it will be a calm Summer like the last one and technically the one before that too (we only extended players and got Turner back then). I think Olshey and Stotts are happy with the current team.

 

I am not sure about that. If they were happy with the current team then they would not have tried to move players last summer for PG and Melo. What they say in public and what they discuss privately are two different things. As it should be IMO.

 

"We were a lot more conservative in approach than all the pundits who picked us to win." Neil Olshey

Seriously? Given that exorbitant payroll? So you really either overpaid (very likely) or they weren't really that good in the first place and not major changes need to be made even more so.

 

I don't understand the context of that quote; especially the part about pundits picking us to win?

 

They were trying to move Crabbe or Harkless plus a bunch of mod and late picks for George. Basically they were looking for a huge bargain to address one of the teams needs.

As long as the core goes I don’t think there is any trade they would make that would involve Dame or CJ.

 

Question for you and everyone else regarding Paul George, using hindsight if you were the Pacers would you rather have?

A) Oladipo, Sabonis, and Leaf

B) Zach Collins and Donovan Mitchell

Factoring in Oladipo's pretty big contract, I would choose B. I actually think the Pacers surprise season is going to be hard on them long term. They probably would've been worse this year with B but they'd have a decent lottery pick to add to that core. It's very similar to our 2015-16 season in which we kinda screwed ourselves by being that good.

 

That could be true but that is a big difference then saying "I think Olshey and Stotts are happy with the current team".

 

It will be the same as ever, with one exception...Resistance is growing. Status quo snowflakes can't isolate us one at a time in threads anymore and call us traitor. It has finally become obvious that we outnumber them.

 

oh yeah?

 

Well, they are happy with the core of this team and they have no option to make significant moves without breaking up that core.

 

Well I rate Mitchell as a bigger talent than Oladipo and have Collins as a bigger talent than Sabonis so it’s a no brainer as TJ Leaf is unknown quality for now.

I don’t think Pacers could have had both Collins and Mitchell and as you said it’s a hindsight. Nobody expected Mitchell to be who he is aside from Utah (he has probably exceeded their expectations too).

 

I don't think it would've been difficult at all. We already know 15 and 20 got 10. 17 and 20 might have been enough too. Then 15 and 26 or 17 and 26 is better than what Denver got from Utah. They could've also skipped Denver and traded with Charlotte or Detroit. That draft was super deep.

 

we should leave Trump's Moscow trip out of the equation!
