1. "Don't get Ba started on Jabari." In response to Reply # 0 Thu Nov-03-16 10:16 AM by Frank Longo
I've tried to mute the word "Bari" from our group text.
But yes, Warren's season has started very strong, though I expect those numbers to regress back down to reality. But even if he does 15-17 PPG this year (as I expect Bari to), that'd be very impressive. I expected Warren to be more of a bench scoring spark plug, not a 17 PPG guy-- though it does help that he's on a bad team.
Bari needs to shoot closer to Warren's 18 shots per game. A little more assertion would put him in that 18-20 range where he really should be.

I called that the Biggest Cyse of 2016, until a week later when I heard another college basketball podcast call Caleb Swanigan a better Charles Oakley.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.
>But once he used that Trump tactic? That "Maybe it's true, I don't know, people are saying it" shit? lol

3p% and usage rate from 15-16
Oct .500 17.4 Nov .615 15.3 Dec .500 17.9 Jan .352 22.5 Feb .327 21.2 Mar .284 27.7 Apr .289 26.9
and .235 3p% on 24.9% usage so far this season.
at this point in his career he's not built to carry that type of load. unfortunately that's what happens on bad teams. guys get shoved into roles they're not really ready for yet.

69. "I'm willing to give him some more time" In response to Reply # 27
Good athlete, good feet, just hasn't put it all together yet. Playing defense in the pros is usually a process, for like 90% of guys on their first contract. Same thing with aggressiveness. He is kinda letting things come to him and still putting up 20-ish a night.
And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

no ayton no trevon no bamba no sexton no knox no trent no wendall no porter no mccoy no hamidou
i thought y'all get who you want?
maybe niggas wannt win it the one year they in school. i mean, cause that's all college coaches REALLY have to offer. niggas all get paid, so that's not a big deal. although the duke brand just brings in more dough, which is why ky makes wall nba salary in endorsement money.

A comparison of TJ Warren to Bari can legitimately be classified as a troll now. Said parties should cease and desist all active attempts to insinuate a shared playing level between the two. Bari Provides the wettest of bucket libation to all comers. TJ still monitors his minutes on the shot sheet after games. If the NBA was a hotel, they'd definitely have rooms on different floors and TJs room would probably be sandwiched between the elevator bank and the ice machine. Everyone, be well.
