    Basketball insiders is an absolute joke.

    Hoopshype just aggregates. Lots of notable people read & reference hoopshype ; players, coaches like Stevens, and gms even our own.

    I'm not here debating about steve kyler or whoever that is. I'm just stating that this info was passed out before cyber ran here.

    To all that are pissed, deal with it. Lol nothings unique about what I'm doing here, or super smart. Just basic. When I saw this thread like his others, i just said to myself...again? I read this earlier somewhere.

    Dates don't lie.

    Just cause majority believe in cyber, means nothing. Wrong is wrong.

    Lets go one by one on his "insider claims"

    Why is there a new idiot every time cyber makes a post.

    I Always wonder if it is just the same guy over and over with several accounts. That would make sense because there can't be that much stupidity in the world.

    We should just respond to dboy By quoting the hate posts of all the others before so we beat him to it, and so his opinion doesn't stand out、that's all this troll cares about

    Lol. If I'm an idiot, that academically and professional am superior to you. What does that make you?

    I digress. Cyber next time cite your source, thats all. Ive gone through your previous stuff too...same **** hoopshype pulled it from somewhere else. All posted before you came to the boards.

    Only credible ones here are DD and Doc rocket. Doc is in the know how, DD is no source or no voice but he has more access than anyone else even measly media card people. He'd get the juciest info if he wanted. Real media people just get the roundabout.

    The funny thing is it took us years to shut down the majority. That is why you seem to be the minority now.

    Cyber had to prove himself over and over with clutch vouching for him to stop the moronic majority from running cyber off like they did doc.

    I'd explain that if cyber was Moreys right hand man and in every meeting. Then posted rumors on that Intel 80-90% wouldn't come true and the idiots would all be crying fraud.

    Point is he has legit info and has posted plenty that no one else has over the years, things that are posted by other national sources, and things that have come true. (Aka us signing Aliza)

    But more than anything clutch met him, vouched for him and didn't ban him or his threads. Anyone that has been here long enough knows that says enough.

    Draftboy, you have absolutely no clue. Cyberx called a lot of things days before anyone else mentioned them online.

    And why would he mention his sources? He has a job in the business and it would be extremely dumb to violate privacy by mentioning their names.

    That makes you an idiot.

    You are ignorantly claiming to be superior to someone that you have no idea what their credentials are. If that's not the highest level of incompetence I don't know what is.

    Yung, way back when. You may be right. Just recently, no. Each of his leads came from hoopshype via another source. Again, we can go over them.

    As for cite your sources, I meant these past few times with hoopshype. Not if he had true ones. Come on, you should know better.

    Arrogant or rude were what I was expecting. Incompetence? Thats incompetent to you lol? Do you understand what incompetent means?

    I'm ending this chapter with you. Go back to middle school and learn some stuff. I'm clearly speaking to someone who doesn't understand what incompetent mean.

    Thank you for naming one. Ariza signing, which one...most recent or 09 one?

    I'll look it up on hoopshype or google. I can't search through his older posts, but lets pull up date and time he posted it. The ones more readily available were with hoopshype via another source getting to it first.

    1. not competent; lacking qualification or ability; incapable:
    an incompetent candidate.
    2.
    characterized by or showing incompetence:

    I would say you are incapable of basic logic and therefore qualify as incompetent.

    To blindly assert your superiority is illogical and based on your illogical rants against cyber I would say that is pattern.

    1) I think my credentials speak for itself.
    2) Don't hate cyber at all. Just stating a fact. This rumor, like others, orginated elsewhere. I'm willing to break down other ones, lets see.

    For someone with such academic excellence, have you considered what a post like this might look like if parsed?

    I'm done feeding the troll but I actually did that at the time. I Googled to see if anyone else posted anything regarding Ariza and there was nothing. That's why I chose that rumor in particular.

    It's not my job to educate you on cybers posts I'm sure that's what you are accustomed to, but you can do the work yourself. It's all there if you know how to find it and with your education I am sure you can figure it out.

    Nothing screams "academic and professional superiority" than spending your time scouring Google and hoopshype in an attempt to discredit a BBS insider.

    Keep up the good work, professor.

    bballholic don't compare eric pincus with Kyler. Pincus is a legit journalist and does excellent cap work and covers the Lakers. I suggest to everyone who wants to look up capspace etc to follow him and his work.
    Steve Kyler is 99% of the time throwing crap at the wall and when almost nothing doesn't come true it's forgotten and one time every two years that by chance he has something right he boasts left and right.
    I could have the same or probably better record than him as an "insider" if I wanted just by making rumours on my own.

    As for the one insistent poster who continutes to troll this thread..don't pay any more attention to him. Not worth it really.

    First I don't know or care about your credentials, and judging by your posts I highly doubt whatever you posted is legit anyway.

    In my line of work there is one thing that is certain, education alone means nothing.

    Haha. In all honesty, I wouldn't come here and think someone renowned would be so off. But as he's mentioned stuff, I've noticed that I've always read this on Hoopshype before he posted it. This Lawson to Bucks was one was a short blurb, lasted just barely overnight on HH. The fact it was mentioned here is what surprised me.

    I wouldn't dare question a renowned BBS member's credibility if there wasn't some truth to it, and some diligence on my side. If I can't offer that, I'm just an ignorant hater. Fair enough right?

    You googled it and found nothing? Really I just googled it on hoopshype site alone and find a few different sources(Sam Amick, Michael Lee) all reporting Ariza going to the Rockets and leaving the Wiz from about 1.5 years back.

    Question is when did cyber post and when did these guys tweet/post?

    I seriously did one google search and found this within 5 seconds. You must be really incompetent.

    Malakas, you are dead wrong about eric. Eric was apart of Hoopsworld when they would hire anyone(even me, as I applied to) to write and then sell a subscription based access to the site full of incredible reporters. Obviously, I didn't partake. This was 9 years ago.

    All those hoopsworld/BI people throw crap against the wall. Seriously, they even just randomly post stuff as they watch the game and see something new(i.e oh Ty's playing? Let's say it's for showcasing him).

    I can believe Steve being incredible.
