    Default Why are people on this board so mad?

    Like, nervously mad, people here either worship a player like he produces food and air for them or hate like he killed their family and turned off their internet connection.

    If you post how good last Draymond's game was > "Warriors stacked", "no excuses" etc and then guys get into a conversation that leads to whose life is more sad.

    Other examples

    If LeBron plays great > "2/6", "receding hairline"
    If Kobe plays great > "6/24", "rapist"

    If you post how you enjoy one game today 3ball comes with 28 gifs and 900 word essay why you shouldn't enjoy it.

    If you post how Bargnani is really a soft player for his size while people were expecting a lot the only first pick from Europe ever Euroleague comes with a post that includes your whole family tree that consists of racists and haters and that they passed their "hate" genes to you and that's why you insulted a player coming from Europe.

    It's like people are trying to insult people here in almost every post and people here get insulted easily.

    You think the board in it's present state is bad? You should have seen it before. Thankfully posters like 3ball and I have caused all of the bran stans to leave the site. They wasted many years of their life stanning a 2/6 beta, and all we can do is laugh about it in an I TOLD YOU SO fashion.

    Sad, pathetic little runts that will never amount to anything in life because if they can't see a beta for what he is, I doubt they have the IQ to make much of themselves in this world.

    At least Dubeta and Jameer try and troll and make people think that they like lebron, but even that gimmick of theirs no longer fools anyone.

    Troll call and response syndrome. This is a result of the stan culture where people create rivalries even between teammates.
    Half these threads are troll bait some start off legit and then end in flame wars.

    The whole shtick from the Lebron fanboys seems forced. The Curry hate, and even continuing the Kobe hate this late in his career. Then you have them pretending they need to talk about the Heat as well. They've become the most annoying simply due to how lame they are.

    On no other high-profile basketball-discussion board is trolling and blatant stannery (if that's even a word) tolerated this much, so these factions of groupies gained ground. The goal here isn't to use facts and well/constructed logic to outdebate others; it's to use hot buttons and selective facts to rattle the cages.

    When I read over past posts, it's a shame to see what this community degenerated into. There've always been stans, but the community at least had the counterculture to denounce agenda-driven threads; nowadays, such threads are either supported by fellow stans, or it ends up retorted with a conflicting agenda.

    You'll find more intelligent basketball discussions on Facebook pages at this stage.
