Matt Armstrong, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:30 (twelve years ago) link

Mark Jackson is IN YOUR HEAD, DeAndre Jordan.

C-L, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:32 (twelve years ago) link

Alternately DeAndre Jordan will just continue to block shots.

this is a v silly conversation where youre just trying to call kg a pussy for whatever reason, but irl generally not wise to give up that much reach

Cooper Chucklebutt, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:34 (twelve years ago) link

I'll take the 6'6 tank vs. the 7'0 beanpole.

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:34 (twelve years ago) link

neither of those are accurate descriptions!

Cooper Chucklebutt, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:35 (twelve years ago) link

irl reach isn't worth shit if you can't throw a punch well.

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:35 (twelve years ago) link

dude walker is 6'6 235

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:35 (twelve years ago) link

omg you called bill walker a "tank"

cad, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:36 (twelve years ago) link

Cooper Chucklebutt, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:38 (twelve years ago) link

where are all the tall skinny guys in UFC I wonder

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:39 (twelve years ago) link

octagon knowledge, dropped

Cooper Chucklebutt, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:39 (twelve years ago) link

bill walker is more street urchin/wino than thug

amon, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:39 (twelve years ago) link

i think the bigger issue is your assertion that 6'6 235 is some kind of impressive or notable build!

cad, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:40 (twelve years ago) link

it's way bulkier than 7'0 250.

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:41 (twelve years ago) link

xp jon jones, dude from my hometown, is p tall and skinny iirc

k3vin k., Monday, 26 December 2011 05:41 (twelve years ago) link

It's not that he's a pussy, it's that really lanky skinny guys are not built for combat unless they've developed good coordination with punching. Shorter, more strongly built dudes are at an advantage in clumsy street fights, not a disadvantage. KG's reach advantage won't mean shit.

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:45 (twelve years ago) link

None of you should argue with me because I'm a touch over 6'4" and 250 lbs. cad knows - I'm a hulking brute.

EZ Snappin, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:45 (twelve years ago) link

POLL PLZ

Cooper Chucklebutt, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:46 (twelve years ago) link

cad, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:46 (twelve years ago) link

Cooper Chucklebutt, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:47 (twelve years ago) link

As long as he didn't knock my glasses off because I'm blind as a bat.

EZ Snappin, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:47 (twelve years ago) link

mark jackson keeps calling his team offense a "random" offense as if he has no control over this

cad, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:48 (twelve years ago) link

what do you think exactly mark jackson means by this 'random basketball team on the offensive end' thing he keeps saying

lolxp

Cooper Chucklebutt, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:48 (twelve years ago) link

Hand down, gameplan down.

EZ Snappin, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:49 (twelve years ago) link

it's like the players are all wind-up toys to him

cad, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:49 (twelve years ago) link

Jackson is taking so many shots at Nellie and Smart

"Guys I just want you to go down there, try and execute your sets, and the ball will go wherever the ball decides to go. We are but the witnesses. Hand down man down."

NBA fights bear almost no resemblance to the street fighting you are envisioning there, Matt. 49 times out of 50 they amount to a brief scuffle with a few errantly thrown punches that glance harmlessly off a shoulder, and a lot of purposeless hubbub.

yeah you kind of get the sense that jackson wants to parlay this job into a tv gig

cad, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:50 (twelve years ago) link

Ha!

EZ Snappin, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:51 (twelve years ago) link

No I think we are envisioning Bill Walker and Kevin Garnett meeting outside the arena with like switchblades and maybe some light tubes. At least I am.

oh sure this is all hypothetical. Was just responding to the idea that Baron "saved" Walker from a KG beatdown.

Cooper Chucklebutt, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:52 (twelve years ago) link

It would be just like the "Beat It" video

EZ Snappin, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:52 (twelve years ago) link

when irl they both probably throw left hooks like they're swinging frying pans. xp

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 26 December 2011 05:52 (twelve years ago) link

The fight, that is.
