2326780, Pierce and KG: Proof that God takes care of haters Posted by bshelly, Tue May-13-14 10:03 AM
MMMMM HMMMM.
Has any player ever talked more about another player than KG and Peezy do about Lebron?
And has anyone ever flipped the script and punished the haters with progressively greater righteous smiting than the KANG?
Remember when these dudes were jawing at Wade during games, telling him he picked the wrong guy? Three years later, Wade got three, Ray Allen got two, and those are running totals.
KG and Peezy got one, forever and ever, amen.
And yet they STILL TALK.
Why did Peezy ask for that assignment? Wasn't 2012 Game 6 enough? Didn't he learn his lesson that he fat and slow? Shouldn't he have figured out that he's now old too?
Peezy couldn't do that. Because #dathate is powerful, and #dathate is the defining feature of his career. Not the one...measly...ring he has. Not them points. Not even getting stabbed like a punk. Peezy's lasting legacy will be picking a fight with a dude he, on his best day, wasn't half as good as. He can't help himself, because once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.
Kang was happy though. He's a generous, benevolent Kang, not prone to sticking a foot up the ass of the elderly, particularly when they've never even seen his level. But rocks at the throne and such.
It's only the Boston bias of the white media that keeps this from getting the attention it deserves, btw. Really white people love Boston, due to its incredibly effective marketing and government efforts to minimize the nonwhite presence more than any other city. So when people do things in Boston, even if it's as ridiculous as Paul Pierce rocking that Melo babyfat for his entire career or KG's schtick, they'll generally let it go, because Boston uber alles and all.
A truly unbiased media would talk about how increasingly silly KG and Peezy look speaking as if the Kang is or ever has been a rival, rather than they just vassals like everybody else. Bron gets the VIP treatment at the HOF and pops bottles with Wilt. These dudes are general admission waiting in line with Clyde Drexler at the bar
Incidentally, really white people love Chicago for the same reason, just not quite as much, because not as many white people go to college there and because the Midwest is boring. Chicago does its best to fight that boredom, but there's only so much you can do.

2326782, Pierce still gave him the business during their title run. So I'd say, "No". Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Tue May-13-14 10:07 AM
>Peezy's lasting legacy will be >picking a fight with a dude he, on his best day, wasn't half >as good as. He can't help himself, because once you start >down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.
Pierce and KG are just old now. And they've been old for a while. Nothing wrong with that.
|
2326785, Bron's won more from Peezy than vice versa Posted by bshelly, Tue May-13-14 10:10 AM
and that's with Peezy doing absolutely no scoring against Bron, because he can't hang. Bron reduced him to a role player, a specialist, while Bron just keeps being Bron.
Put another way, three of Bron's 10 (maybe even 5) best playoff performances have come with the so-called Bron Stopper on him. so how in the world do we think of Peezy as anything more than another speedbump Bron powers over?

But Truth is still one of the best players of all time. The age difference is just too much right now. Pierce isn't even as good as Joe Johnson.

2326937, Nah. Bird is by far a greater player. Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Tue May-13-14 03:48 PM
But, I'd go with Pierce when talking solely from an offensive versatility standpoint.
Long range shooter, mid range shooter post ups, ball handling, passing, driving to the basket. All of that.

Like, prime Bird had zero, zero zero flaws on offense
Zero
He was pulling 10 REBOUNDS per game from the 3 and 7 FUCKING DIMES
He could take you to the cup

I'm gonna have to re-start a Bird agenda because people are being ridiculous
Bird's PRIME is closer to Jordan's than people tend to admit
He was an absolute GOD
I thought it was common knowledge that as far as offensive balance goes he was better than anyone, even Jordan.

yea you're probably right. I mean, I said PP "may" be because you do have to acknowledge that he did in fact surpass Bird as an all-time scorer...There's no doubt Bird is the better player in virtually every facet of the game...but if there's one place Paul could compete, it's in getting buckets - clutch buckets, too.

I think you're confusing the points.
But that's okay.
It's like Kobe is a better offensively skilled player than MJ.
MJ better.
But Kobe is a better ball handler, passer, and shooter from range.
MJ's better though.

2327594, greater offensive versatility does not equate to better offense player Posted by 40thStreetBlack, Wed May-14-14 05:29 PM
>It's like Kobe is a better offensively skilled player than MJ.
Kobe has a broader offensive skillset than Jordan, but MJ's offensive skill level outstrips Kobe's. To me that indicates MJ is the greater offensively skilled player. Somewhat similar to the Bird/Pierce comparison. Maybe it's just a matter of semantics here though.
|
2327383, Bird was better at 2 of the 3 triple threat options though Posted by 40thStreetBlack, Wed May-14-14 10:56 AM

pierce also had a career game that night with bron guarding, just saying.
also, who really thought the nets were more than a speedbump? did people pick them in this series? (and don't point me to an OKP post with 2 idiots, i want numbers).

Heat vs Celtics was always too much of a conundrum, lesser-evil calculation-wise. Now I get the assholes playing for my town, and get to leave the Boston baggage at the door.
Weirdest shit was a Knick fan at the bar last night getting outright affectionate for Lebron due to Nets hate. "THERE YOU GO BRON BRON!" I was like bro whaaaaat. He was like Bronx all day I was like aight.
Knicks fans by default HAD to hate Bron after the Decision, forever and ever. I would think a slight majority begrudgingly root for the Nets on the low.

Its a perfectly good rivalry between 3 first ballot hall of famers, all winners, one of whom is the most gifted basketball talent since Wilt
I mean, I thought the problem was that players were too friendly. Like, rivals practicing WITH each other in the off season?
There is nothing to complain about here.

2326806, I'm down with the Kang, and I'm gloating. Posted by bshelly, Tue May-13-14 10:29 AM
Both are HOF. Peezy is lower level HOF, but KG's a legit top 30 guy all time. Nuff respect due.
However, those dudes crossed the line from healthy competition to disrespect and hatred a long time ago. It's very clear the move to Brooklyn was motivated but little more than a foolish desire to stick it to Bron.
Besides, they're corny.

No, they went to Brooklyn because the Celtics were rebuilding and Prokarvovovovovvo was willing to overpay
Has nothing to do with Lebron
Has to do with guaranteed paper on a team that looked to be good, and would be if they didn't lose their BEST player early in the season

The inability to produce a team built for playoff success is why Lebron left.
KG & Pierce are no more "fathers" to Lebron's success than Isiah & company were to Jordan's. They were just temporary road blocks that made him better/hungrier.
And I would show them more respect if they showed Lebron some respect. But they've been on this irrational hate train for years and it's now coming back to slap them in the face, just as Isiah's silly hatred for Jordan slapped him in the face and continues to haunt him to this day.
And yes, I'm enjoying it.

>KG & Pierce are no more "fathers" to Lebron's >success than Isiah & company were to Jordan's.
They WERE fathers to Jordan's winning style
Their team concept, their defensive prowess, their mean streak...those Bulls teams transformed from finesse to grind-it-out right after those Pistons
AND if you notice his scoring dropped right around then...no more 37/game shit, the Pistons were masters of the team ball, team defense, the concept that the Bulls dynasty was really built around
Not to mention them getting RODMAN for the second triple
All the great ones need to learn their lesson
Zeke had a much better mean streak than Jordan, was much more heartless....Jordan had to learn that
Pierce and KG had a cold-bloodedness that Lebron didn't have
And Lebron was ABSOLUTELY jealous of the Pierce/KG/Ray Allen trio

2326869, I don't think they *made* Jordan. They fueled the fires. Posted by Vex_id, Tue May-13-14 12:57 PM
It was great for Jordan to have go through Zeke and those teams - because it made him and his team better. Just like it was great for Lebron to go through those Boston teams - but that singular championship team didn't *make* Lebron - they threw gas on the flames because they really didn't think it would burn.
Zeke never accepted Jordan as the heir apparent - protested against him on the all-star team, was very expressive about his disdain and disbelief in Jordan as the next Great...same thing w/ Pierce & KG. They epitomized the "Lebron is soft and scared and he'll never win a ring" argument. They really fueled that narrative because they didn't think Lebron would burn like he's been burning.
And if they are the respective "fathers" - then it would make sense why they are so bitter -- their sons (who they hated) out achieved anything they did, exponentially.

Prior to last night, his scoring was down throughout the playoffs, and overall production hadn't yet gone into overdrive...but last night he clearly was looking for his shot - and his usage rate was the highest it's been in 2 years.
So it's not crazy to think that his fires were peaking after hearing of Pierce wanting the defensive assignment.
Kang Gerald Wilkins'd him - and he has to eat it.

2326851, I'd say the second and possible third ring for Allen is better proof Posted by mrhood75, Tue May-13-14 11:52 AM
But that's just directed at KG, not Pierce.

2326852, Without KG and Pierce, Allen is probably out the league by now Posted by Orbit_Established, Tue May-13-14 11:53 AM
He was third and sometimes FOURTH wheel on those good Celtics teams

KG wants to act like a child and "lose" Ray's number, that's cool. Hope he likes his team getting its ass busted by Ray's then.

"if I can't beat'em, join'em" type of shit. Anybody that co-signs on that is a bitch.

2326883, sold out the team that tried to trade him numerous times Posted by bshelly, Tue May-13-14 01:36 PM
and that he had only played for four years. right.

2326884, lol they were playing Avery Bradley more than Ray during his last year Posted by Vex_id, Tue May-13-14 01:39 PM
Boston already had moved on, but Ray wasn't allowed to?

2326887, Ray didn't owe shit to the Celtics besides his effort when he was... Posted by mrhood75, Tue May-13-14 01:45 PM
...on the team. He took a better opportunity to win. Funny how losers carp about players choosing money over winning, then whine when players choose winning over money.
And anyone who co-signs refusing to shake another's man hand over making that type of decision has about 99% bitch in their blood.
|
2326890, I'm not mad at Ray but the contradictions are killing me in here Posted by Orbit_Established, Tue May-13-14 01:52 PM
All we do is whine about how much BETTER it was when Jordan and Bird and them wanted to fucking gash each other back in the day (yes, it was better that way) rather than today when Paul George is talking about working out with Lebron in the summer DURING THE FUCKING season (pathetic)
These dudes do NOT care about beating each other the way Magic and nem did
And now we have some semblance of that and we're CRYING about how Pierce and them are "hater?!?!" LMAOOOO
No, they punted Lebron's shitty Cavs teams out the playoffs and MADE HIM go to a team with two other hall of famers
Their boy defected to run with him...its some 80s era competitive shit and its wonderful

>No, they punted Lebron's shitty Cavs teams out the playoffs >and MADE HIM go to a team with two other hall of famers
Interesting, because that's the same thing Pierce did. Team up with two other hall of famers.
I like the rivalry - it makes it that much more entertaining to watch....that said, Truth and others are mad because Bron is dominating the rivalry and pulling out stunts to try and mitigate damage.
So, honor the spirit of the rivalry - just don't get salty when it doesn't go your way.

2326905, I had similar feelings when Robert Horry went to the Spurs, anytime... Posted by ThaTruth, Tue May-13-14 02:36 PM
there is a rivalry in team sports and one player goes from one side to the other there's always bad blood.
But I've heard you state before that you're not really a fan of team sports so I don't really expect you to understand.

2326948, pierce didn't do that. Posted by thejerseytornado, Tue May-13-14 04:20 PM
pierce re-signed with the celtics and asked not to be traded even though they were sorry as fuck. he survived the shitty rebuilding and got rewarded with real teammates. he didn't do shit to get them onto the team, and he didn't leave anywhere to get them as teammates. entirely different.
----------- Y'all stupid...should've tanked for Lebron/Wiggins in 2014 -Rex LongFellow
Its 2014...there are computers in glasses and people stunt after hitting the ball far. Get over it. -Cenario
It's only funny till someone gets mad. Then it's hilariou
|
2326961, point is: He had to team up w/ 2 other hall-of-famers to win Posted by Vex_id, Tue May-13-14 04:40 PM
that's the formula for virtually every dynasty in the modern era -- but for Kang detractors, he's not afforded that same right to play with a championship caliber team without getting criticized.
>pierce re-signed with the celtics and asked not to be traded >even though they were sorry as fuck. he survived the shitty >rebuilding and got rewarded with real teammates. he didn't do >shit to get them onto the team, and he didn't leave anywhere >to get them as teammates. entirely different.
Bron didn't want to wait 11 years for nothing to happen, like KG did. He took destiny in his own hands and was the architect - and shouldn't be penalized for it.
If KG had to do it over...he would have left Minnesota after 7, too.

2326904, problem is it's not a legit rivalry anymore Posted by southphillyman, Tue May-13-14 02:31 PM
that's why the shit looks like hating even if they are sincere bron done moved on from the KG/PP and Bulls "rivalries" the sooner those players realize it the better he's unquestionably better than all them and has more rings to boot niggas looking like a shell of themselves, flagrant fouling, and talking shit to the media is larry holmes flabby and fat status torch done been passed YEARS ago. this shit is barely competitive much less a rivalry lol.
and PG and Durant trying be Bron best friend in the offseason is just a sign of respect for someone they aspire to be like ain't bron fault niggas look up to him like that and he only 28 and in his prime Pierce probably mad PG ain't holla at him when they both from LA. o well

2326906, Yup. Pierce/Garnett made Lebron join an existing finals MVP Posted by Orbit_Established, Tue May-13-14 02:38 PM
Pierce/Garnett will forever have that on him
Really not debatable
Not to mention Pierce/Garnett/Allen won the FIRST YEAR THEY WERE TOGETHER
Lebron had to have a nuclear meltdown that first year in the playoffs to learn any kind of mental strength

rivalries are fun. just let them play out. it's 1000x more entertaining when teams hate each other.
and as i keep saying every time this KG-Ray shit comes up: a) sure it might be a little petty, but did you expect different from intense-all-day KG? b) KG and Ray will be friends in retirement, and that's all that matters.

2326975, its so funny that people are still so threatened by bron Posted by rob, Tue May-13-14 04:58 PM
like if bron had help, like any help at all, garnett and pierce would still be forever-losers. respect to them and all....but he took em 7 in a close game.
as a cavalier.
with delonte west.
shit, ray allen and kendrick perkins are ghosts of what they were 5 years ago and they both still contribute to contenders.
bron went and got help so he could win and that's a knock. lol.

ESPECIALLY if it was a foul that went uncalled, and they gave it to miami. i want these two goofballs to be as bitter as possible for the rest of their lives.
|
2327762, i'm sure Peezy and KG are welcome in Miami Posted by bshelly, Wed May-14-14 08:55 PM
Peezy can play 15 minutes a night, carry Bron's bags, and collect a few more rings.
KG can play bingo at the senior citizens home.
