    If I'm quoting the person and "replying to thread", same thing for me.


    But If I hit quick reply and attempt to reply at the bottom of the page, without quoting anyone, and the computer logs me out? Once I sign back in I get an error saying "Thread has been removed, please notify admin" when in reality, the thread is still there.


    Anyways it's all good, I gotta get used to ctrl+a, ctrl+c my posts before hitting reply Just to be safe.

    There were several. I only understood the reasoning behind the affinity once I hit puberty.

    Odd affinity?

    At one point, I felt Steph could do no wrong.

    During his MVP season? Legit thought dude was the best offensive player of all time. Or close to it. It was probably irrational, but his regular-season was THAT good...of course the Dubs also won 73 games that year.

    The 2016 finals was a quick reality check.

    Another one is Glen Rice. Didn't care if he was a black hole, or that Phil wanted to trade him because he wanted more touches. That shot was nice. May be a hot take, but I don't think LA wins in 2000 without him. His numbers were pedestrian but still spaced the floor with his range. I remember thinking the Lakers were going to be unstoppable after the Eddie Jones trade.

    I think there's some excellent 2 guards in Jimmy Butler and Paul George in this progressively position-less era. I also think there's more combo guards than ever, and they're some of the most skilled players to ever play the game. The 2 guard itself seems to be a dying breed.

    His game was clearly influenced by AI, though he didn't dominate the ball nearly as much and couldn't score on his own nearly as well.

    True he couldn't shoot off the bounce but he was a real point guard. Iverson was more of a combo guard.


    I've seen Robert Hite last night watching big3 highlights. 6'2 Lefty slasher. 40 inch vert absolute monster in the air. That guy was fun to watch when he was young. No gifs tho.

    Brown was great at running an offense, great bounce passer, and a brilliant team leader.

    I remember hearing great things about Hite.

    Crazy how Illy's starting PG Deron Williams made the pros and got paid millions while having none of these attributes when he came out of college. Don't get me wrong I love me some Utah DWill but no way Brown was playing back up for him AGAIN this time in Utah.

    Unlike Brown (well, he might be able to, actually, it's hard to tell), D-Will could shoot the NBA three.
