I hate that the Lakers lost yesterday. Now thats the ONLY thing the talk shows are discussing. None of the other 3 games are being brought up and they arent talking about the games today.
I told Laker fans that they most definitely needed to win the first game no matter what so all the media bullshyt didn't start up. They could lose the second game no problem but make sure you win the first one so the narrative and trolls stay calm but nope:yeshrug:

lonzo been trash

never saw it with him
@Squirrel The Casual Man has got some of the wildest takes you'll ever see:

Lonzo's a generational player; best PG under 25 in the league
Michael Porter Jr. will be the best player on the Nuggets the moment he steps foot on the court
Luka will be a bust
Jokic is a scrub
Kris Middleton is better than Kawhi and would've won 3+ titles with the Spurs
Melo is better than Kawhi and would've won 3+ titles with the Spurs
Kawhi will never be a #1 option
LeBron will be exposed after the 2015 season
Warriors won't win a title with Durant
Jaylen Brown won't reach Jae Crowder's level
Dennis Smith Jr is a franchise player.

:lolbron:

Other people have reached their wits end much sooner but I'm nearing the point where the basketball discussions here are so narrative-based and reactionary that the takes here are becoming overwhelmingly bad.
I can see why people like @Gil Scott-Heroin pop in to troll a bit occasionally and then leave for months on end. I'm suspecting this is why Malta left all those years ago.

If anyone has a site that discusses basketball in a more mature, rational matter, by all means let me know.
Apologies for this mild rant.

Try Reddit :pachaha:

Does anyone know if the homie Malta is good though? He vanished off the face of the earth

You’ll be hard pressed to find that place. Basketball discourse is trash now. The combination of stan culture and the fact that so many don’t actually watch games and just run off narratives has made a lot of talk unbearable whether online or in real life.

Breh you can't let this shyt get to you. You gotta either ignore the silly shyt or find the humor in it. Recognize it for what it is and keep it moving. A lot of that shyt is funny (some is kinda sad, I can't front) if you just take a step back. You gotta learn how to separate the trolls from the legit posters.
