biyombo's really tearing the league up just like you predicted

when did I predict biyombo would tear up the league buddy

you may not have said that but you were doing the same player season finder posting as if it meant anything

I didn't even post on ILH during the 2011 draft

they're not similar in any significant way, hollins isn't a good shotblocker or rebounder and isn't particularly defined by those things.
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 23 January 2015 02:35 (nine years ago) link
it was a bizarre and lazy comparison
which is explained by you not watching Gobert play very much, probably
matt i love you but you have a thing for obscurish project bigs just admit it
― k3vin k., Friday, 23 January 2015 02:35 (nine years ago) link
oh and Biyombo isn't treading water right now so...
lol i'll admit to that but i said it once and haven't exactly doubled down on my comments since then

sure I do, which Biyombo and Gobert aren't at all.
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 23 January 2015 02:37 (nine years ago) link
they are extremely noted project bigs
lol
― k3vin k., Friday, 23 January 2015 02:38 (nine years ago) link
at a certain point you have to just admit Gobert is killing it, you don't have to wait for a Zach Lowe article on everything
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 23 January 2015 02:39 (nine years ago) link
shit he might already have written one
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 23 January 2015 02:40 (nine years ago) link
gobert does seem like hes gonna be pretty good tbh

only reservation is players that big usually have injury problems

would love this bull/spurs game to be a finals preview but tbh as a fairweather bball fan with no real investment in the bulls these days i'd secretly prefer a hawks/warriors one.

yr dream (and much of ILH's I think) is looking more and more plausible by the day

I often think about how tragic it is that Shawn Bradley had good health and Muresan and Yao did not

LMA out 6-8 weeks :(

pretty cool of matt n kev to give us this peak into the world of pro scouts' dickmeasuring contests

sucks about lma but at least Portland has a bit of a win cushion right now
― pursuit of happiness (art), Friday, 23 January 2015 03:10 (nine years ago) link
gonna be interesting to watch lillard try to do it by himself, but portland's front line is beyond decimated for the next month

that reminds me i got tix to see blazers vs wiz on saturday, pumped for that
when will the Brandon Jennings thing stop
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 23 January 2015 03:16 (nine years ago) link
I keep not drafting Jennings in daily fantasy and it's getting expensive
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 23 January 2015 03:18 (nine years ago) link
you should maybe try drafting him?

― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 23 January 2015 03:24 (nine years ago) link
I'm thinking about just having one lineup per night that has him yeah...
I would have lost my shirt on that linsanity stuff
tbf I have no clue how fantasy teams work but for this like fan duel shit you can draft one time only lineups right? I'm guessing you think that he is just in the midst of a glorious fluke

I've only seen a few post josh pistons games but idk he seems real now that he's free to function like an actual point guard

kinda hope KG tries to fight blake tonight
― i'm tellin you it was kenard (slothroprhymes), Friday, 23 January 2015 03:41 (nine years ago) link
kgs been blowing in ears and butting heads i hope he changes it up this time and kisses him on the forehead
― pursuit of happiness (art), Friday, 23 January 2015 03:46 (nine years ago) link
I pitched a friend the idea that kg, frustrated on a losing team, might spend this last year just fucking with everyone he hates and taking the suspensions. Really secure that legacy.
― Clay, Friday, 23 January 2015 03:50 (nine years ago) link
I'm legit surprised he hasn't been more volatile; it's not really a good look honestly but if he's committed to it he might as well go after the dwights and blakes
