Trust me. Benamin is not a thing. Especially if you know anything about the reporter who calls him that...Howard Eskin. He sucks.tempo_n_groove said:
I see it tweeted a lot now. I love it actually. Heard it mentioned here on NY sports radio too and he wasn't a reporter.The Juggler said:
Literally nobody calls him Benamin except for one washed up reporter. loltempo_n_groove said:
Speaking of the Sixers. How is Philly treating Benamin in the sports pages there? I'm sure it can't be good?The Juggler said:
Not much of a stretch to say the Nets, with three potential hall of famers, are built better than the Sixers...especially with what the Sixers are dealing with right now.tempo_n_groove said:
I agree. just like the Sixers...The Juggler said:
They were a super team expected to waltz to the Finals. Instead they played about 10 games together during the regular season, finished behind the Sixers, and then lost in the second round. I think I'd need to see more success than that to say they've figured it out...tempo_n_groove said:
Kyrie said that Harden is to handle the ball. That and they figured out how to play last year with a revolving line up. Surely you saw that last year? They are still favored to win the east this year.The Juggler said:
Brooklyn figured it out? What did I miss?tempo_n_groove said:
That was evident during pre season. westbrook should ball handle drive and dump every time. That might work. or pick and roll with LBJ and let him secondary distribute.Poncier said:Westbrook and Lebron don't look like they can coexist successfully. Both need the ball in their hands.
Hell I don't know. If Brooklyn can figure it out I sure hope the Lakers can.
Come on now...
EDIT: The Nets played much better than the Sixers IMO during the playoffs. BOTH teams should have gone further. I think the Nets are built better and run better.
We will see since Vegas agrees w me too.
Happy to have basketball back at least.
But I read the Sixers thread and am all caught up now. Thanks for your take.www.myspace.com0 -

Plenty of better ways to make fun of Ben. It would work better if he actually went by Benjamin but he doesn't. Seems forced to me.tempo_n_groove said:

Because I don't like a nickname? Dude, I hate Ben Simmons at this point. Lol. But it's a dumb nickname coined by a horrible reporter here. Just pointing out that it's not a name people use.tempo_n_groove said:

I now refer to him as Mr. August, as that is when his yearly Instagram videos of him dominating scrubs at LA Fitness come out. He's draining all kinds of jumpers and threes in them that he's afraid to take from October through June. So...yeah go with Mr. August. It's got more cache than Benamin.
It's got cache, baby. It's got cache out the ying yang.www.myspace.com0 -

So apparently Kyrie Irving was selected to the 75th anniversary team.....but then removed....presumably due to his anti-vaccine stance. I've seen articles about this...so I tested it out. When I searched on Bing for "Kyrie Irving NBA 75" this link is in the results.....
But when you click the link now, you get an error message....
https://www.nba.com/nets/video/2021/10/20/nba-75-kyrie-irving
Whether Kyrie is a top-75 player is debatable. But if he got voted on, pulling him for his anti-vaxx stance is pretty lame.

If they kept DsBusschere then Ben Wallace should have been added.
Damian Lillard I have a hard time w being on the list too.
James Worthy at 76 is disrespectful. He was a tremendous player.0 -

Well first off, they're not ranked. He's last because of alphabetical order.
As for DeBusschere, everyone from the 50th anniversary team made this one, which is why they shouldn't have voted from scratch. They should've just added 25 guys to the original 50. I'm fine with DeBusschere and everyone else in the original 50.
I don't think the following players belong.....
Reggie Miller
Dame Lillard
Dennis Rodman (I'm a huge fan and appreciate his game, but he doesn't belong here)
Anthony Davis (would've gone with Dwight Howard over him)
Carmelo Anthony
Don't know who I'd replace these guys with though. But nothing about any of these guys suggest "all-time team" to me. Frankly, Rodman comes the closest.

Miller, Rodman and Anthony are deserving.
Miller could flat out ball.
Rodman was a part of 2 dynasty's and very much a big cog of them.
Anthony can score on anyone and got the short end of the stick. You know he is top 10 all time in scoring?
I would put on Ben Wallace for being a defensive menace and winning those championships.
Pete Maravich should be on the list for what he introduced.
I think Chris Webber gets slighted too. I would lean to him over Ray Allen. Allen was one dimensional. Webber was not.
Those 3 I would add over whom I took out.0 -
Reggie Miller is the most overrated player in NBA history. In his prime, he basically averaged 21/3/3 while playing absolutely no defense. Plus he couldn't create his own shot. That's why the Pacers ran him around picks like a mouse in a maze. He has some good clutch moments here and there and was certainly memorable. But not all that great to the point where he should be on this anniversary team.
Rodman was a part of five championships and was a huge cog in them. Same goes for Parker and Ginobli though, and they're not on the list.
Anthony Davis made the team, so I'm not sure what you mean when you say he got the shot end of the stick.

That championship. Singular. 2004. One only.tempo_n_groove said:Ledbetterman10 said:tempo_n_groove said:
I saw that list. I would have removed him if I saw it on there. Also Ant Davis and Ray Allen.Ledbetterman10 said:So apparently Kyrie Irving was selected to the 75th anniversary team.....but then removed....presumably due to his anti-vaccine stance. I've seen articles about this...so I tested it out. When I searched on Bing for "Kyrie Irving NBA 75" this link is in the results.....
But when you click the link now, you get an error message....

Whether Kyrie is a top-75 player is debatable. But if he got voted on, pulling him for his anti-vaxx stance is pretty lame.
If they kept DsBusschere then Ben Wallace should have been added.
Damian Lillard I have a hard time w being on the list too.
James Worthy at 76 is disrespectful. He was a tremendous player.
Well first off, they're not ranked. He's last because of alphabetical order.
As for DeBusschere, everyone from the 50th anniversary team made this one, which is why they shouldn't have voted from scratch. They should've just added 25 guys to the original 50. I'm fine with DeBusschere and everyone else in the original 50.
I don't think the following players belong.....
Reggie Miller
Dame Lillard
Dennis Rodman (I'm a huge fan and appreciate his game, but he doesn't belong here)
Anthony Davis (would've gone with Dwight Howard over him)
Carmelo Anthony
Don't know who I'd replace these guys with though. But nothing about any of these guys suggest "all-time team" to me. Frankly, Rodman comes the closest.
I would put on Ben Wallace for being a defensive menace and winning those championships.
