But his teams do win when he gets a triple double....

Re: 5/3 - 5/19 Games Discussion Thread

One of these days I would love to know what exactly it is about him that people don’t like without resorting to the usual “Empty stats/he doesn’t translate to or help his teams win” narrative.

Because there’s plenty of players like that but they don’t get nowhere as near much flack/criticism as him.

But he is an all time extreme/historic example of that tho. When he is off the leash and leading a team you know what you are going to get and what you aren't going to get.

What do people honestly think Washington is going to do in the East?

Here is what it come down to me, Russ is a sure fire HOFer, but if my team is playing against his team in the playoffs and it is a close game I don't care if he has a 40-20-20 in the game, I want the ball in his hands for last 3 minutes, I will feel pretty confident about my team coming out with the victory.

Clippers played 9 guys today, I wonder if it goes to 10 when Ibaka comes back or if they bench Cousins?

This doesn’t answer my question though. I’m talking about the player itself, not the Wizards because this has been going on for the last 4-5 years now.

Idk Basketball Fans are weird because they’ll trash players like him but then gas up other players who haven’t done as much in the same breath and I’m curious to know why. Sometimes I wonder if they enjoy watching Basketball or just enjoy trashing the players themselves, lol.

So again without resorting to the “empty stats/he doesn’t help his team win” narrative, what has he done to receive the criticism that he gets from people that others aren’t getting?

Cousins to the bench. Classic when we need you to mix it up. Unless Ibaka comes out flat. Cousins has done ok. Long term he's not the answer.

Damn, Knicks played great. I wouldn't want to face them right now. That also goes for the Heat.

Say what you want about the Ball brothers. They play defense. Reminds me of the Holiday brothers.

I'm sure others have dealt with this bull**** but it's my first time.


I have YouTube TV and NBA League Pass. Suns are my local market. Suns/Lakers is on NBA TV and I can't watch it on YTTV or NBA League Pass. How the **** am I supposed to watch it then?!

Re: 5/3 - 5/19 Games Discussion Thread

Re: 5/3 - 5/19 Games Discussion Thread

Yeah the Lakers definitely want the 7th seed if the Suns have the 2nd seed. Love the Suns but that's a 5-game series max for LA.
