Verbal Kint
Superstar
Players who've been on championship teams have an idea of what they're talking about when they say shyt like this. They know the level their team was praticing/playing at around this same time during the championship run.
If the shyt isn't near that same level then it would make sense for him to think this.
These are grown men
Making 8-9 figures to focus on a sport
If nets players hear this and don't take it as a challenge to go harder then fukk em![]()
On some level yea, nut up. Ya'll getting paid NBA money. On another level, these guys are pros and understand the game. Most NBA players understand the roles that will keep them in the league. A guy like Jared Dudley knows his place and how to keep getting those checks by bringing certain things to the table. When your best 2 players are out, the guys the offense is supposed to be formed around, it means other guys are asked to do things they're not capable of. They can't just will themselves into being playoff quality #2 scoring options if they're not talented enough. So to trash them because they aren't talented enough for bigger roles while they're not able to play the roles they're in the league for is lame.
