You're actually right, Kstat. You're not being childish. I was. I posted my "thoughts" on the Afflalo deal in an attempt to ruffle some feathers, particularly yours and it worked.

That was childish and I admit it. No need for the coward comment, though - especially if you're not gonna name the people/person you're talking about.

The sense of entitlement needs to be curbed. Every move that isn't for a future hall of famer gets thrown into the toilet because certain Piston fans who havent known any down years cant deal with reality. It's like a spoiled child that doesnt get the shiny new toy for the first time and whines about it because he has no perspective.

I have no idea who you're talking about here but whatever man. You can go on rants about other posters all you like. That's on you. You can leave out the names of your targets if you want, but again - that's on you.

One might call that cowardly, if one was so inclined - but that's not me.

Please don't be arrogant enough to assume that people who disagree with a move made by "King" Joe are childish, have a sense of entitlement or have not been fans during any down times. Many of the people posting on this site were at Real GM when I was there more than 8 years ago and it was the Teal Era. That's hard times.

If it makes you happier I have praised our Draft a lot in the last few days.

I trust you enjoyed your vacation. Welcome home.

Shamir (Tel Aviv, Israel): I’ve always like Chris Wilcox and it’s fair to say he’s worth $3 million a year. But if this year’s Pistons are in rebuilding mode, I don’t understand why we gave Amir Johnson away. He’s five years younger with more upside and the same salary. Don’t you think this could and still might be Amir’s breakout year?

Langlois: There were a few things we saw last year from Amir, when he was getting regular minutes against other frontline players, that made me rethink what his future might be. Amir can be a dynamic team defensive player, but he also has trouble guarding both in the post and out on the floor. His lack of strength, particularly below the waist, really puts him at a disadvantage when he’s guarding power forwards. And he also seems to have trouble moving his feet laterally. That led to a lot of fouls that continue to plague him. He still has youth on his side, but I don’t know if he has the frame to substantially change the fact that guarding big men will remain a struggle.

Hilarious how he'll trash Amir...now.

And no response from Kstat?

Why do our debates always end when I lay it down for you?

Yes, I'm aware you will now respond to prove you are "man enough" ...

or just ignore it and hope I forget that you called me a coward, a sniveling coward at that. And a spolied child... and a fan that has never down years.

I ain't gonna forget all that. And while technically you didn't actually name me straight out it's pretty obvious to everyone.

I'm not down with that. At least be man enough to direct your attacks at a person by name and not behind the excuse "I didn't mean you."

Waiting...

that wasn't a debate. It was chicken fighting with a woman.

I'm stumped because I'm trying to figure out who has the bigger estrogen count, you or Glan.

Step away from the keyboard, take a couple deep breaths and get back to talking hoops. We'll pretend this thread... and select bits from other threads... and maybe the last week or two of your posts never happened.

ya know Kstat was run out of the off topic room as few years ago after trying to lay down his law on racial relations. no need to be running him out of here for being a douchebag, when most here support his douchebaggery if its in their favor. I'm nt saying be nicer to him, just wait til he comes to before you kick him in he balls again. That's common decency.
