He's wrong on both counts.
The man who owns both titles:
Double edit: he didn't say "in the NBA" it was "of our time." Somehow Karl Malone isn't "of our time" but Dwight Howard is.

Didn't Royce help "hype up" the travel situation? He says it was a media thing, but I remember him bringing it up a few times.

Kings become the Sonics and the Cats become the Hornets and franchise history time lines become bananas.

He'll be (or he "hopes" to be) w/ his D-League team "within the week".
He says the stuff about the traveling situation was more "driven" by the media, and not by him.
Mentioned mental health issues not being fully defined by the CBA, & some other stuff I didn't quite hear.
Also had a v-neck.

Carmelo wanted to be in NY and Thibs and him would have been incompatible.
Also, you need to take the giant salty dildo out of your ass about Chicago. "Chicago sucks! It's so dangerous! Waa Waa Waaahhhh!"
Every other post is about how much the you hate this city. All big cities have their problems, but just because no one in this city gives a fuck about dumb-ass wrestling and you have no friends doesn't give you license to whine more than Dwight does about Kobe's shot selection.
I think he meant Dwight is the most over-rated player currently in the league, and I agree.

Chicago has a huge homicide problem.
Thibs is a similar coach to his college coach, coach in denver, Olympics coach, and Woodson. Anthony responds to hardass coaches.

I love Utah, but days like today I fucking hate Utah everything is fucking frozen, fuck.
I think he'll probably win DPotY this year but he isn't getting enough MVP hype, yeah.

No one regards Tmac as perhaps the best player of his position it's been argued for Karl
"The Most Ridiculous Thing is he's doing this at 30 mpg"
How's that a good thing? Is his backup a better player than him? and if not, him only playing 30 minutes a game when most superstars play 35+ is hurting his team right?
People don't win MVP's for playing 30 minutes a game. That's silly, and so is assuming that he would be as efficient playing 38 as he is 30, and then mentally extrapolating his stats out to per36 numbers.
There are things that hurt your team even minimally, even though they don't seem to. A star player who's the best at his position only playing 30 mpg is one of those things. And don't say it's because of all the blowouts because he sits out entire games too.
Not shooting a half court or 3/4 court shot as the quarter is expiring also hurts your team. Sure it makes your and your overall team FG% look better but that's useless when it comes to fact that not shooting gives you a 0% chance of scoring any extra points though, and that hurts your team.
Years ago, EVERYONE would hoist up that desperation shot at the buzzer, now no one does, especially not superstars because its a percentage buster and makes you look worse than you really are.

You've been following my posts that closely, huh? You must really like riding that Soul dick.
Anyway, I actually will respond to you. I love this city. I love this city so much that I go from public clinic to public hospital all over this city, volunteering and doing what little I can to actually improve the conditions here. It isn't much, but I don't have to do it. I don't know why you're mad that I choose to highlight the violent atmosphere in this city, but I feel that it should be done. I find it insulting that you feel that these are just problems that other cities have. Bigger cities like nyc and la don't have this bad. Now, instead of making excuses for this city out of some misplaced pride, I choose to be angry and highlight it, so hopefully something will be done.
Now, I see that you've taken this a bit too close to the heart, and started some personal attacks. I don't mind. This past year, I was accepted into one of the top med schools in the country, and I'll get a chance to do some research that God willing will actually make a difference somewhere, so your petty insults don't phase me.
And one last thing, if what I say bothers you that much, then get a grip. These are just basketball posts on a video game forum.
I see you haven't downloaded the app yet.

I guess it's good Kyrie didn't make it with his sub-Monta assist ratio.

not yet lil kyrie, not yet
He comes off as pretty articulate. I think he's going to end up being a great player for Houston down the road. Sounds like things are finally getting worked out.

Kyrie still can make it as a WC tho
So well spoken?
I'm pretty sure he can tell Pop, "No I'm good, let me play this game" and Pop wouldn't object.
That being said, I'm not blaming Tim. Dude's earned the right to sit out games if he wants, he knows his body better than anyone. Especially when his team can win games without him there. I am just pointing out that someone playing 30 mpg shouldn't be an MVP candidate and that his efficiency in those 30 minutes doesn't mean much. The Spurs are winning because for the 18 minutes he doesn't play, they still play incredibly well.
I've watched first hand the Lakers starters build leads and then the bench lose them for years now. You don't win MVP playing 30 minutes, he's hardly "carrying" the team.
MVP is a 2 man race between Bron and Durant. I'd like to see Durant get it, but either one is deserving.

Chandler made it?
I guess the Knicks deserved 2 for their start but isn't he having a worse season than last?
