I'm going to a pig roast on Saturday!  Everyone please be jealous.

1. Bill Russell wants to kick you in the balls right now. And he will, despite being 106.

Well, by saying Jordan was the best winner, I'm saying that no matter how big the game or moment is, he's going to win.  He'll put the team on his shoulders and get the job done.  Now with that being said...

Bill Russell is the product of 99% of the league being terrible and much shorter than him in his playing days.  He was that much better than everyone and was ahead of his time.  Take for example the '63-64 Celtics.  Russell is one of 3 guys on the team taller than 6'5".  He was supposed to dominate.  He shot 43% from the floor, 55% at the free throw line and 15 points per game that season.  Get out of here with that nonsense that Bill Russell is better in any possible way than Jordan.  Dude averaged 15 ppg in his lifetime, 44% shooter, and made a little more than half his FT's.

Yeah I said it.

Jordan > Bill Russell

And do you believe LeBron get to all these Finals if he were in the Western Conference?

This is a legit question.

Also, there was no greater winner than Jordan.  He might not have the same skill set as someone who is as freakishly athletic as Lebron, but that dude could will his team to win no matter the circumstances.  If there's a game that is a must win and I could choose anybody to lead that team, it's Jordan, hands down.  That's no slight to anybody else because let's face it, we're talking about the best of the best here.  Jordan > Lebron 

I still feel like Ernie is going to make a big trade at some point.  We'll probably all hate it.

"Oh, by the way..."

I think Sheehan and Cooley say this phrase 97 times a show, each, minimum. 

always felt "plays the game the right way" was code for "he's not good and this is the best thing I can say about him"

Cooley has gotten worse since switching to the AM slot.  Anytime I listen, he's saying off the wall stuff that is just nonsense, in a super goofy way like you know he's dicking around.  It seemed much easier for Galdi or Czabe to reel him in. 

But Cooley with Sheehan is just not for me, I guess.

Jason smith: defensive specialist...

Me thinks the data is off a bit

He's a gym rat who gets the most out of his athletic abilities and plays the game the right way.

Gil has no filter and no chill.

I did laugh at some of the stuff, but overall he's a gigantic bag of douche. 

Are you an Eagles fan or something?

 

You better watch yo mouf, son son!

But if you take our pace from the last 25 years, all of us would take 2 championships in those 200k years.  Don't worry, the Eagles will still have zero.  Forever.

I think 4 for $64MM is like a role player salary these days.

I don't give a **** if it's 1916 or or god damm 204016...everybody must be Redskins fans!!

Man, I hope I live long enough to see the year 204016. 

We better have at least 2 Super Bowl victories by then.

Never happen. 40 games, 15mpg at best.

Tongue in cheek, my friend. 

I'm so thankful he's gone though.  Dude could be at 90% and wouldn't play because he's not 100%.

Watch him play in 80 games and average 15 and 8. 

We won 41 with all the ups and downs this past season...no way they win less than that. 

 

There's more competent coaching and a deeper bench. 

 

Also...KD going to GS better serve as a SERIOUS wake-up call to our front office.  Wall is a free agent in 2019, and they have to figure out a way to maximize the next 3 seasons.

Oh I agree about the Wiz.  Just making light of our good buddy Ernie.  No reason we can't win 45 games if we're healthy.  It's just that there's only so far this roster will take you, that's all.  At least we won't have 12 free agents after this season.

Ernie is putting together a very fine 35 win roster here. lol

I don't get why all of these morons sign with Western Conference teams.  It's sooooooooooo much easier to make it deeper in the East than in the West. 

I get Cleveland won the title, but they are not unbeatable.  Let's not pretend they won 70+ games last year.  Even our squad went 2-2 against them.  LBJ sat out one of those games, which we lost. 

Since Durant is now going to be pretty much universally hated, what better way to rehab that image than to come "home" to DC?  I kid, I kid.  Kinda.

Anyway, I'd have liked him going to Boston, but F him for going to GS.  That's the easy way out.

And F Ernie too, while we're at it.  Just because, Ernie.

So you're saying there's a chance!

No need to be snarky about it.  The owners have it to spend with all the new money so comparing a deal this year to the one Wall signed in 2014 just doesn't work.  Just because you don't think someone is a max player doesn't mean the market or NBA GM's agree with you.

It's not just with Beal.  It's with all the players being discussed in here where someone says "he's not worth that."

Anyway, you all have my permission to proceed and discuss things accordingly.  Don't forget to send me a PM before you bring up any new topics in here.

Man, too many people here are worried about money that's not theirs.

We need talent and we need it bad.  I don't give a **** how much Beal is getting.  If we didn't give it to him, someone else would have.  Who cares if he makes $40m more than Wall.  We're talking about a multi-millionaire making less than another multi-millionaire, lol.  None of us can relate to that.  The owners have so much money to spend that you can't compare these deals to any previous deals made in the NBA.  Max deal doesn't mean franchise player.

Anyway, we need to sit this out until the dust settles.  Then Ernie will make a deal that will redeem himself before his next screw up.  Please get Cousins.

At least we know that whatever poor deals Ernie hands out, he'll "correct" them at some point to save his job.  He always comes up with deals out of nowhere.

He needs to collect his paychecks with a ski mask and a gun. 

We all have our own preferences, but I sure as hell won't discriminate!  I'll eat it all.

I just like busting balls where applicable.

Not true. Carolina vinegar sauce is BBQ sauce. Ya'll just snobs.

Vinegar based is totally cool.  But if it has the consistency of ketchup, we're going to have a misunderstanding.

My dad's side of the family is from NC, so I grew up on Carolina BBQ.

BBQ sauce does not belong on pulled pork!
