I'm so sick of this Anthony Davis hype propaganda...

[stalkerforlife]

"He's the best player in the game."

"He has GOAT potential."

"He's an MVP candidate."



You play to win the game. Losers are always trying to find a silver lining in losing. Nerds will come up with any stat they can to make their favorite players look better. True greatness is determined by willing your team to win. I don't care how pretty your stats look if you can't will your team to win. Davis has plenty of talent surrounding him to help him win. Make the playoffs just once before you anoint the dude the best in the game.

Maybe he can become elite, but as of right now, he does not have the ability to will a team to win.

Kobe?


"Make the playoffs just once" lol he's a 3rd year player

He's the new kid in town, with a likable, mellowed personality that fans abroad are viewing as refreshing. But more importantly, fans of the game aren't blind to what this kid could potentially burgeon into. He's a world class talent that could very well play himself into all time elite company. It's not hard to get excited about that. But yes, you're correct in the sense that EVENTUALLY the way he is perceived will come down to wins or losses much the way every other player is measured in the end. But for now, it's just fun to see watch this young kid do his thing and envision if he'll fill out the growing expectations.

Plus he has a unibrow and shit

Solid post.

This is what you said about AD

Maybe he can become elite, but as of right now, he does not have the ability to will a team to win.

Now apply that to Kobe, but change the first part to reference the past.

Plenty of top players missed the play offs in their early seasons. He's a big man too they usually take longer to develop. Right now he is playing better than anyone else in the league. That's a fact. He isn't going to win MVP until they win more though but you can't try and discount how good he is looking by saying he isn't even an MVP candidate. This is the first year he's had what I'd say is a solid team around him if they stay healthy their should be no excuses not to make the play offs this year but they will need some time to gel as they have some new guys and some old guys coming back from long injury lay offs. Maybe ish is overhyping him a bit but he sure is an exciting future for the league if you are a real basketball fan.

Maybe he should jump ship to a team with 2 other stars and pick up easy rings, would you be riding his dick then?

Bad coaching not getting hin the ball.

"Willing your team to win" That is dumbest shit that anyone can ever say. Nobody wills anything...you create plays and take shots and you miss or make them. You play defense or you don't. You don't "will" anything. You don't overcome a team with "heart". Anthony Davis has the team 5-4 with that garbage perimeter line up. Tyreke Evans the 2nd leading scorer averages 16ppg...on 15.9 shots. He has the team over .500 so I don't understand the problem with praising him. That team is ranked 14th in defense because of Anthony Davis and him solely. If he was not on the team they would be 26-30th.

You should know about those buzzwords by now and who uses them lol
