Matt Armstrong at 11:36 21 Jan 22

You guys have all watched so much basketball and you see that and think it’s something unusual. I guess half the country voted for Donald trump so anything is possible


lol not liking Grayson Allen is just like voting for Trump!!

i didn’t say it was unusual and i didn’t say it was a flagrant 2. i said one of these days someone is going to take his ass down.

Euthanize Grayson Allen. He cannot be rehabilitated and he does not deserve sanctuary

switching topics… as a longtime hater I have to say so find it strange that porzingis has not gotten any consideration for the all star game. he’s been really good!

Grayson Allen is a nice guy who isn’t a particularly dirty player

Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 22 January 2022 16:23 (two years ago) link

i wonder why everyone else in the world has the opposite impression then

ciderpress, Saturday, 22 January 2022 17:00 (two years ago) link

matt i value ur contributions to the board SOMETIMES but im gonna ask u to step back and consider whether you judgment of character of the ted cruz of the nba is in fact reliable

class project pat (m bison), Saturday, 22 January 2022 19:03 (two years ago) link

i will have no choice but 2 begin spreading the rumor that matt armstrong is in fact the online alias of one grayson allen, nba player

class project pat (m bison), Saturday, 22 January 2022 19:04 (two years ago) link

There's a reason why flagrant fouls are treated differently from fouls that occur in the course of normal play. They are very dangerous to players even when they are unintentional. Allen will gladly and intentionally commit a flagrant 1 in any situation where he thinks it might benefit his team.

To Matt's mind, this is nbd. Matt is not and never will be the player on the receiving end of a flagrant 1 delivered by a NBA-sized athlete, but he might change his mind about 'nbd' if he ever caught one.

I don't even know the difference between flagrant fouls, I simply want Grayson Allen to be beaten up

Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Saturday, 22 January 2022 19:41 (two years ago) link

there should be three levels of flagrant (third one you get beat up)

lag∞n, Saturday, 22 January 2022 19:48 (two years ago) link

thought the initial play was just a hard foul but he went too far by then swinging around with the right arm. you can't do that with his rep and not expect to get tossed

i was once sent to the infirmary by a cherokee parks elbow, so i'm sure aimless will defer to my judgment on these matters

mookieproof, Saturday, 22 January 2022 19:52 (two years ago) link

Was it still attached to Cherokee?

Man that sucks, he just got back to playing, too.

Lol I just watch a lot of basketball and know what is accepted for players who aren’t Grayson Allen

Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 22 January 2022 21:58 (two years ago) link

Lol

?

Poor Grayson feel bad man xp

u cant spell 'matt armstrong' without 'mr grason atm tt' (at the moment, ta ta <- a salutation snobby duke ppl probably do)

Yo...none of this is cool. That’s intent, not instinct https://t.co/uY4an0PUO7

^agree. That's not a 'normal' foot motion while defending. Allen attempted to trip Rose, but to do so surreptitiously enough that the refs wouldn't catch him.

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Saturday, 22 January 2022 22:35 (two years ago) link

if not for his reputation I think anyone would've looked twice at that play

frogbs, Saturday, 22 January 2022 22:50 (two years ago) link

did you know that was the first flagrant of Grayson's career

frogbs, Saturday, 22 January 2022 22:52 (two years ago) link

that little sideways kick was a 'veteran move', but only among veterans who play the game like that. it's the seamy side of the "scrappy player who does all the little things that don't show up on the stat sheet".

first flagrant of Grayson's career

surely not, if you count college as part of his career

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Saturday, 22 January 2022 22:58 (two years ago) link

its not a career if you don't get paid

I'm not gonna defend Grayson here but that kick is the kind of thing I see guys like CP3 and Harden do a bunch. maybe without even realizing it

frogbs, Saturday, 22 January 2022 23:02 (two years ago) link

and there's a reason why CP3 is known as the "lil bastard", too

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Saturday, 22 January 2022 23:07 (two years ago) link

I think we're getting off topic here, frogbs in what manner and by whom would you like to see Grayson Allen get beat up?

Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Saturday, 22 January 2022 23:11 (two years ago) link

Grayson Allen should retire from playing and go work for the Lakers front office if he has that little regard for Alex Caruso

Drank a Wade Cellars chenin blanc today. Recommend pairing with Like Mike on Disney+.

Yeah he’s a dirty player. There’s lots of dirty players in the nba, dirtier than Grayson Allen.

Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 23 January 2022 17:05 (two years ago) link

Grayson Allen is also a rock solid backup (who is currently a starter for the NBA champs)

Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 23 January 2022 17:06 (two years ago) link

hadn’t realized that john stockton is insane

mookieproof, Sunday, 23 January 2022 17:24 (two years ago) link

he's been a right wing dick for a long time, surprised it took this long

Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 23 January 2022 18:13 (two years ago) link

tbh reading the interview i didn’t think he came off as a dick at all. i mean, he’s saying stuff about vaccines that has no basis in reality and is quite crazy by any measure, but he seems to be quite reasonable about the consequences of his choices. he doesn’t portray himself as being persecuted or as some political prisoner or anything. he acknowledges that he’s a public figure and so his actions matter more than others. obv he disagrees with gonzaga banning him but he’s also basically like, yeah i’ll get over it eventually

J0rdan S., Sunday, 23 January 2022 18:25 (two years ago) link

yeah he sounded perfectly reasonable apart from the whole

During the interview, Stockton asserted that more than 100 professional athletes have died of vaccination. He also said tens of thousands of people – perhaps millions – have died from vaccines.

“I think it’s highly recorded now, there’s 150 I believe now, it’s over 100 professional athletes dead – professional athletes – the prime of their life, dropping dead that are vaccinated, right on the pitch, right on the field, right on the court,” Stockton said in the interview.

he was in a stupid conspiracy covid documentary this summer

Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 23 January 2022 18:34 (two years ago) link

weird that he's not giving names of these highly recorded individuals, likely deep state suppression

guess the tightness of his shorts has cut off the blood flow to his head

one-game suspension for allen

mookieproof, Sunday, 23 January 2022 21:47 (two years ago) link

that's probably because of his reputation and not because the play was dirty and he injured an opponent, though, as has been established

Clay, Sunday, 23 January 2022 21:51 (two years ago) link

i’m watching celtics-wizards right now (tatum 6 for 7 from three rn) and…. what is up with people just walking up and down the sideline to and from their seats during the game like it’s nbd?!? i have not seen this before. seems disrespectful. and is distracting for the viewer at home

Tracer Hand, Sunday, 23 January 2022 21:58 (two years ago) link

yeah idk i thought part of the courtside seat agreement was that you couldn't enter or leave except during a time out

ciderpress, Sunday, 23 January 2022 22:12 (two years ago) link

it went on for like five minutes.. weird

Tracer Hand, Sunday, 23 January 2022 22:15 (two years ago) link

Yeah that’s absolutely the case unless THT was also suspended for the same play on Suggs

Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 23 January 2022 22:16 (two years ago) link

not the same play
