He wins a conference championship as the #1 in his team and I'll eat my words. Save this quote shel for future reference. I'm positive it'll never come to light though

I haven't, and you're trying to change the subject now.

So you didn't stick to your guns when you called him a bust, got it.

GeorgesGoons wrote: ↑Wed Mar 24, 2021 12:36 am And yes, he will be a bust when it comes to the expectations you out on him

I've never once gave any expectation of what he'd be, you did, you said he'd be a bust.

You've already ate your words, you've already backtracked. Just take your L.

How so? He's not a top level guy. You can't build a team around him. You need a guy who can score at all three levels to be an elite offensive guy, zion is elite inside 5 feet and that's it. If he was an elite defender you may have some ground to stand on but he isn't. He is mediocre at best outside the paint, mediocre as a defender.....so take your L as a Pels homer and more on

According to his logic, Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving are busts. You couldn't build a winning team around them!!!

Harden...bust.

Ben Simmons,/John Wall/Blake Griffin/Derrick rose all on the Bust list.

It's so easy to get Shel going. But yea, he's not someone to build around

Try not to fall down while doing all that backtracking.

Bless your heart.

No backtracking here, plus I'm agile like a kitten

Neither did Michael Jordan. What a bum!

I had to do a double take when I saw who the current #2 team in the West is. They are fun to watch, I just didn't realize they were running with that record right now.

Also... as much as I don't care for him, I've got to respect what Pop is still doing in San Antonio. The team just continues to play consistent basketball with plug and play players. I didn't think they had a shot at the playoffs this season, but they are currently holding down that last spot.

One of the best coaches of all time. May be a boring style of play but it is consistent

Love what the Bulls did. Excited to see what Vuc looks like in Chicago. I don’t think Wendall was going to work out for us but I like him and will root for him in Orlando
