i never said otherwise

but you can learn to read though

Ohhh, you meant that you never said otherwise about the contract part only? See, I wrote 3 things (he's horrible, his contract is a joke, and he's past his prime) and then you responded with "I never said otherwise." That means you agree with everything I said, at least to most who speak the language.

You should learn to use the bold button and let someone know what you're actually talking about.

im confused too.. of course he's past his prime

arguing that is stupid and a waste of time

but judging contracts after the fact is just silly... nobody said it was a bad signing at the time... and thats what matters

not years down the road, when everyone turns into a monday morning quarterback

 

[Inspekdah]

The Nets are supposed to compete for championships and are now handicapped by a bum injured PG who has attitude/diva issues.

Wasn't the time to go all in on that bum squad.

They could really, really, use an inspired Dwight.

 

[nbafan88]

and the bucks made a miraculous come back, wow

 

[Inspekdah]

When can the Nets retool salary cap wise... ?? Everyone would want to play there but instead they took every player in the league's bad contract

 

[Inspekdah]

Bucks too good a team to just lay down.

Wait, now of course he's past his prime? Didn't you just say it wasn't a fluke and if I thought otherwise I was blind?

Yep...here's your quote....

his talent is still there, its not a fluke and if you think it is not i think you're just blind

 

[Inspekdah]

I thought they would lose but now I'm wishing I could trade live off my Wiz bet

 

[nbafan88]

and now everybody go bet lakers 2h, *joke*

Lots of people said it was a bad deal at the time.

 

[nbafan88]

dwight only plays when he wants to play unfortunately... in a sense i guess any contract he ever signs is shitty too

 

[Inspekdah]

What was Bucks 2h line?

 

[thykra6]

Lakers -5.5 2nd half. Thoughts?

 

[Inspekdah]

Wiz won't stay within DD's, wow.

 

[Lareux]

They can't for a while with Joe Johnson, Deron Williams, and Gerald Wallace (I think it's him). In 2015-16 alone, they will owe those 3 guys (who will be waaaay past their primes) a whopping $56 million of guaranteed money.

 

[nbafan88]

btw tmrw is steph currys birthday

i was born on the same day as him :thumbsup2:

 

[Lareux]

I would agree with that as well. He won't be worth any contract that a team signs him to. He's a cancer.

KD in bitch-mode, pouting and shit. Dude needs to harden up, mustn't have got a cuddle from his moms this morning...

Well he doesn't do it as often as most in the league so he gets a pass from me. In fact, I can't really remember him going "Lebron" (or Wade, Kobe, etc, etc) at all.

 

[Inspekdah]

Pacers ATS is dead

 

[emkee]

I'd give him a pass to in most circumstances as well, Lareux but I've got money on 'him' and need him to pull his head out the sand so I've an increased chance of winning my play...

 

[emkee]

This is laughable by Durant. 1 made FG, 5 points and 6 unforced turnovers. Thankfully OKC are up 15...

 

[nbafan88]

Pacers ATS is dead

thank you

 

[nbafan88]

they were saying the other the durant said that he wants to toughen up on the court...

 

[txtennisboy]

Bucks -4 2h

 

[Inspekdah]

Barea the last guy I want to see on the court when I am looking for a blowout. Just can score so easily

 

[Inspekdah]

I wouldn't say that nba unless I was on it myself.

 

[nbafan88]

wow houston... thanks for taking away my 2h play

 

[Inspekdah]

Keep an eye on it they love to let up a flurry of points to end 1h's

 

[Inspekdah]

Pacers just can't hit the big 3 ATS wise.

You were right tho NBA defense up 10 fold

 

[Inspekdah]

Stiesma throws Stephenson to the ground and IND foul?

 

[Inspekdah]

I know KB24 is great but the announcing tonight is insane. Guy has his sperm all over his face.

 

[emkee]

OKC couldn't have played any worse but up 22 at the half after holding the Jazz scoreless for the last 7:49 mins of the 2nd quarter...

 

[Inspekdah]

KB24 took over. Hawks +3.5 in doubt.... BUT... Lakers using everything they have to get back.

 

[Inspekdah]

Whoever said Sixers plus 9, kudos, nice work.

I didn't play just saying.

 

[Inspekdah]

Pacers cover????

Nice work guys.

 

[nbafan88]

easy cover in indiana

thanks to inspek and his nbafanish antics

EASY

 

[nbafan88]

wash covers 2h as well... phew my advice didnt hurt anyone lol

 

[Inspekdah]

When I've lost a handful of bad beats... and I've had a dozen or so TERRIBLE beats this last month... I will always have a side of nba in me.

 

[Inspekdah]

Ha, I was screaming Bucks by DD, phew, 2-0 but pending Hawks +3.5 and Boston ML

 

[nbafan88]

but you dont get banned like me lol

 

[Inspekdah]

I wouldn't have done that if I thought anyone had Minny

 

[Inspekdah]

I always get banned around World Cup time.

 

[nbafan88]

thats beside the pt

wheres fondy????

 

[Inspekdah]

Well, warned.

My lack of soccer knowledge combined with stereotypes of the nations involves sometimes offends people. Including myself.

 

[nbafan88]

wowwwwwwww boston dominating

lakers wont be allowed to lose

 

[Inspekdah]

Well I think people get mad at reverse jinx type stuff when they are on the one side. And I think this is really just the two of us having a nice fireside chat.

 

[Inspekdah]

That's why Atlanta ML had no value at +140 IMO, have to take the points.

 

[Inspekdah]

nbafan you ever read the posts on Yahoo Sportacular? Hilarious stuff. Is that just people posting from their phones?

 

[Inspekdah]

Plus a long long time ago I was a mod here. Than I went MIA for a year.
