Not making the case for the Celtics. Gasol is a solid old-school center. Lumebring and slow but a force in the middle. Defend yoru basket and put enough stress on penetrators and centers alike to open up the game for the gazelles... That is what Kareem was in some ways ( not comparing them...
OK I 've had it!!!!!! If the Celtics manage to grab M. Gasol they win the East and will be in the Finals for many years ... I will also offcially become a Celtics fan ............. NOT :D
True that but a simple question: Curry is likely the third best player in the NBA in the mind of basketball fans ( LBJ, KD being #1 and 2 respectively, There could be a debate whether Russell Westbrook is not #3) but ... who has had the better Finals in the past 3 years between Curry and Kyrie...
Those were the kind of deals only the Lakers would make ... when they had the functional Kupchak + West + Real Buss trio ... Now with Jeanie and whomever passes for GM at the helm .. they are lucky to have an adequate core of young players who may or may not be up to the hype ..
For my part and...
Hi
I am not a Celtics fan. I am foremost a fan of Basketball. I can't believe how anyone with a modicum of understanding of the game would not see the Kyrie trade as a great one for the Celtics. They haven't had a player for the ages for quite a long time and did not have one on their roster...
Hi
I can't believe this thread went on for so long...
I am a Toyota fan, we can call them boring all we want, they simply work... so well that we can forget about them.. Better than any other car ...
The new Camry is out there and it is as boring as ever and likely as reliable :D...
I agree with this assessment. Somewhere this particular and highly interesting character did get lost in the movie... he simply went off as the movie progressed. Else, a great movie.
I believe that we make too much of our memories of the original Blade Runner. This one matches it in all aspect...
Hi
Saw it and it is by all measure (IMHO) better than the original.. there are a few head scratching issues about the plot, especially the reliance on replicants in a world so technologically advanced but the gist of the movies, the metaphor about what it’s to be “Human” is never lost. Slow...
Deserved IMHO
as for Melo .. Playing for a bad team would do that to you. The Knocks seem to be mired in that swamp-like state. They are simply bad year after year.
The Lakers are not faring any better. I want to see Ball being all that.. the buzz on him is loud.. But with his father seemingly...
Hi
There is something here that is to me heartening: Intellectual Honesty.
I congratulate DaveyF for having the courage to reverse or question his position. Something I would like see more in Audiophile debates..heck! in debates!
Here is a person that came off a demo that bowled him over and...
Hi
The issue is not that of the tool or technology used. There were some crappy recordings made during the Golden days of analog. It is the skill of the practitioner that matters. I have somewhere here on WBF referred people to the level of photography attainable with something as cheap and...
