"Shit like this is why nobody wants to hear metrics or PER in basketball"

just shows you how bad the metrics are in basketball. metrics don't work well in team sports when it comes to judging the value of individuals. baseball is really an individual sport masked as a team sport that's why it works there.

according to this chart Zeke doesn't deserve to be in the HOF, so i tupac spit on this

What I'd like to have right now is for all you fat, out of shape, small dick niggas to keep the noise down while I take my robe off and show all the ladies what a real man is supposed to look like (C) Ravishing Rick Rude
