Don't say that I don't fukk with the kid when I've been one of the few people giving that team props before everyone else jumped on board. I've said long ago that they can make a trip to the finals and win if MPJ becomes even 80% of the player they think he could be and I still stand by that.

You giving me a coli thread as evidence as to why Murray is inconsistent?:mjlol:

Come on Breh I thought you were better than this. Every player has slumps in the regular season. Murray was dealing with all types of injuries this season...calf/thigh/knee/wrist. That’s why he started slow. Now post the stretch where he was at 29/6/6 on 52/43/91 in late Feb early March when he finally started to get healthy. If you are good more than you are bad then you are not an inconsistent player. Prime Jeff Green and Tim Thomas were inconsistent players..not Jamal fukkin Murray:snoop:

I gave you the thread as evidence as I'm not the only person who has made the complaint that Murray is inconsistent.

You whining and bytching about it isn't going to change my opinion. Because that's what it is. My opinion.

Dudes act so whiny on here like bytches when someone doesn't have the same viewpoint that they do :mjlol:

You're a grown a** man. Act like it instead of a whiny baby.

As a lot of us have said before, talent isn't the problem with Murray but consistency is. Inconsistency is the biggest knock towards his game. Some nights dude looks like he has next and others he looks like an afterthought. It was a reason why people thought that Denver should have moved him and made the upgrade to Beal.

Also don't forget the aspect that MPJ would have been in contention for the #1 pick in the draft had he not had the back injury. It should also be noted that he was the #1 ranked player in the country at the time going into college. He missed two years of development because of the back injury and is still figuring it all out on the court.
Murray’s improvement on defense makes him more valuable than MPJ to me, he can create his shot vs anyone, has a lethal offensive package idk

Again MPJ lost two years of basketball development because of the back injury so he's behind schedule of where he should be. You can tell that he's still learning as he goes along, which is why people were making legit complaints about his game earlier in the season. There were even times last year and this season where even Jokic acted he wanted no part of including MPJ in the offense.

That's why I've stated many times that he can be the difference maker in their eventual ceiling depending on how quickly he can become the player that they need him to be.

It doesn’t matter how many people argued that. The evidence says otherwise....the numbers say otherwise. So you basing your opinion on what a bunch of misinformed nikkas say sounds like a personal problem. And you’re entitled to your own opinion...I got nothing to do with that. Just don’t come up in here trying to act like your opinion is fact cause that would be incorrect.

I never acted like my opinion was a fact. You're the one who got defensive and took offense as if it was.

All I said was that he was inconsistent as a player. That's my opinion. You're making it more serious than it has to be.

Really :unimpressed:


Still doesn't change the fact that Murray's regular season and playoff run's can compared to Steph's or Kyrie's. They weren't in the 2020 playoffs so you can't compare his performances to theirs when they weren't even in there.

It also doesn't change the fact that Murray is an inconsistent player whether you agree with it or not. Look around the internet and you will see that I'm not the only person who has made that complaint. Even dudes on The Coli have said the same thing and even made a thread about it back in March.

It's unhealthy how much I fear the day I lose my mother. I know I'll never recover.


It's one of the worst experiences you'll ever go through. The 28th will be 3 years since my mom passed. I wish it on nobody. Your life changes forever.

Cherish your mothers brehs. You only get one.

The first point is a fact as Murray isn’t on the same level of Kyrie and Curry and even you’d be willing to admit that. Kyrie nor Curry participated in bubble so we don’t know what their numbers would have looked like under bubble circumstances. Even putting Steph in the same conversation as those players is an insult to Steph as he’s on another level compared to those players.

The second point is a fact as well as if you look at individual performances he has been inconsistent for someone you think is a superstar player and on the level of Steph and Kyrie. One game he drops 30 and the next he puts up a single digit performance. Your superstar player can’t be that type of inconsistent if you have championship aspirations and nothing you say will change that fact.

So first u deny stating your opinion as fact. Then I post your quote literally stating your opinion as fact and now you’re trying to Juelz your way out of it:picard:

1 - I never said he was on the level of Steph and Kyrie. I said his 2020 playoff run was

2 - He was averaging 22ppg this year...that’s not inconsistent. That’s borderline all star numbers. Every player has off games...what matters is the totality of his performances. Even the great Steph Curry and Dame have had shooting slumps this year alone. You look ridiculous for parroting that shyt. And then literally stating it as fact:picard:

You stay on my dikk like a groupie. Every single time I see you post, you're always mentioning me, when I don't even give you the time of the day.

:picard:

Where am I shytting on Zion in here?

:usure:

I called out @DetroitEWarren hating ass bytch ass posting, trying to shyt on BI and Bledsoe during this game all for the sole purpose of propping up Zion. How come you ain't wanna talk about that shyt? I've already told you the deal about Julius many a time, so I don't know why you're continuing to play dumb.

I done told you - I don't make the rules, so don't expect me to fight fairly when it suits nxggas like you who don't do the same.

So what’s the deal with Randle? You were shytting on him in the beginning of the year but you’ve stopped since he’s led the Knicks to a resurgence and been ducking any posts involved with him.


How you gonna deflect like a fakkit? Bring up the Heat again lol
