What's new

Tony Wroten Jr?

Dude, I can laugh at myself. If you read my posts/threads the past few months, that's what I do.

I just don't like how you resorted to posting a picture of me and acting like you're better than me because you disagree with me. That's just a bitch *** move. If you can't own up to that, well, I guess you're just a bitch ***.

so, you're saying you weren't a bitch to me when I said the bench press wasn't an important metric and suggested that the NBA combine exists as it does because of NFL-lust? You never said anything of substance to my comments.... meaning you were a bitch ***. So, I gave you a bitch slap back. What is hard to understand here? Basic playground rules...

That is the only kind of move NAOS knows.

I'm a bitch ***?
 
My first comment was a joke about how Kicky had clearly won the argument. Which he had.
Then you came back with a character assassinating move.
Then, ignoring that, I responded with this:

you'd be better to ask why the combine takes the form it does.

It isn't because every test is equally valid and translates directly to the product on the floor.

I think it has a lot more to do with NFL-lust.

to which you never responded.

Have you read the thread?

You really care about this.

why the **** do you? (other than your relentless need to get involved with everything that happens around here).
Honest question.

I, for one, am just curious about why Archie is such a sad little pup today.
 
The bench press is probably just a thing they do because they have always done it.


This is almost assuredly true.

Archie, I don't think I'm disagreeing with you that strength is important as a physical skill to play basketball. I do disagree that the sole test of how many 185 pound bench presses can a player do is at all valuable in determining a) whether a player is strong in the kind of ways that are important for NBA play or b) whether a player will succeed at the NBA level.

Why do you think this particular test has any predictive power at all?

Simple answer: Because it is tested in NBA draft combines. Some people must think it's important enough to make a determining measure of a player's strength. Like you, I agree it's not conclusive whether a player who can't bench can play in the NBA, but I do think it's a bar to measure one's strength, which is a very important trait needed to play with the best athletes in the world.
 
any chance you guys are going to take care of this at the flagpole and let the rest of us have our basketball forum back? just checking...

don't get greedy... jazzbroughs is plan A... you have your way there.
if Archie wants to be a bitch around here (your plan B), then you have to let him. Then, there's Cy... good luck on that. Just two bullies.
