  1. lol, ok. For comparison, here is Trapp: It's almost like one of them is the left defensive mid with a left back behind them and one of them is the right defensive mid with extra right back responsibilities because the team doesn't have a right back behind him. Adams clearly has way more responsibility and freedom than being stuck in a right back role and running up and down the line providing width. Do I think we have to continue going with this formation? No. But if we do, it isn't misusing Tyler Adams and he has tons of opportunities in this role to do the things he does best. Complaints about this are very fucking dumb at this point.
  2. Does this look like a guy who is trapped in the corner? Tyler Adams is a good player period but this "right back" role is not a waste of his ability.
  3. Did people complaining about Adams playing "right back" actually watch the game to see where he is playing on the field? Because it seems to me mostly people who aren't actually watching the game and just bitching.
  4. As long as Shumpert is dropped from the rotation completely for the playoffs, I'm fine with it. He's been terrible so far and no reason for him to be playing over Rivers
  5. Any surface in a bathroom to put shit on is also a surface to put shit on.
  6. People browsing their phones at the work urinal. I don't understand why this is a thing.
  7. See it could be that. Or it could be that I realize you're too invested in the idea that you've built up in your head of Ramonce to understand that you are being delusional and he was not anything close to a top 5 player on the title team or on track to be an all time great player for Texas so it really isn't worth much more time than saying "you're wrong".
  8. I played basketball with Ramonce while he (and I) were at Texas... This is a dumb argument though so continue having fun with it.
  9. Yes, really. You can be delusional about Ramonce's football ability if you want, but yeah, Jamaal was far superior as a football player (and athlete).
  10. I think warriors/spurs and rockets/clippers would be more entertaining though neither would go more than 5 games.
  11. There's no world where Ramonce Taylor is a better football player than Jamaal Charles.
  12. Looked like he was winning the fight but got rocked by that headbutt and just started swinging after
  13. Texas legitimately won this game after trying so hard to give it away and then got robbed by that awful foul call
  14. This idea that the Rockets or Harden were doing something different trying to maintain the streak and that it will change now is very dumb. The Rockets do finally have an actual healthy 9 man rotation though.
  15. I'm very surprised that Faried played the 4 at all in this system but it was even more shocking that he was the primary defender on Durant. That makes me think he actually will play more minutes there and that it wasn't a temporary thing just needing more size without having Harden in to guard the post. The Rockets really are the only team in the West that can give the Warriors trouble.
  16. The only team in the West that can beat a healthy Rockets team in a playoff series is the Warriors. No one else is getting past a game 6.
  17. If the Clippers can trade Blake Griffin like they did, who cares if a player demands a trade in a similar contract situation?
  18. Getting under the luxury tax is really nice because that means the Rockets don't really have the worry about it for the rest of Paul's contract. On the basketball side of things though, the Rockets are really small on the perimeter. pg - Paul/Rivers sg - Harden/Green sf - Gordon/Shumpert pf - Tucker c - Capela/Faried That looks like a solid 9 man rotation but really need a bigger wing who can play some 3 and backup Tucker. No idea who ends up getting bought out but adding a Jeff Green or Wilson Chandler would be perfect. Markieff Morris could work too if it seems like he'll be healthy enough to play.
  19. There is zero chance the Rockets are going to play Faried at the 4 for any minutes that matter. He has one position in this system and that is center. We do need a real backup for Tucker, which is why the Shumpert deal is disappointing. Rockets needed a big wing that can backup Tucker, not another small wing who is an inconsistent shooter.
  20. Really not a fan of getting rid of a first just to get Shumpert. He's fine but I'd rather have just kept the pick if he's all we could get with it. Also, Deandre Jordan is trash. We already have Faried to backup Capela once the team gets healthy.
  21. He played two more minutes than he should have. In that time he took two shots.
  22. Did you guys actually watch the game? I mean, there was no reason for him to be in the game in the last two minutes, but he very clearly was not just jacking up shots to get to 30. He did a lot of passing and passing up shots in the last few minutes for someone jacking up shots to keep the streak going.
  23. How do you think the trade is going to look when the Knicks end up losing out on all the big names and max out two of the Kemba, Cousins, Tobias Harris, Middleton group?
  24. No free agent is excited about the idea of playing with Knox, DSJ, and a high draft pick. If anything, two guys would be trying to sign there and getting the Knicks to trade the rest to bring in a 3rd star so they'd actually have a chance.
