    You have too much free time on your hand. Since you do, please give some deep thought on who was the better actor, Eddie Munster or Barney Rubble? Let us know what you come up with?

    Kind of embarrassing to have this thread show up for anyone who browses clutchfans.

    More than just the metrosexual angle I'm also looking at the body comp and weak wrist thing

    Greens frame is pretty similar to a young Curry

    Curry has always been picked on defensively as the weakest link, as Rocket fans we remember that well with Harden/CP abusing him... but yet he's still an all-time great and was able to lead his team to championships.

    Just have to hope Green can develop into an immensely skilled offensive player to make up for his small frame.

    I'm almost 40 and still considered a millennial.

    I guess it's zoomers now? Eh, who cares...don't like other gens anyways.

    Yeah, this is gonna be an eyesore on CF.

    It's not like fems and metrosexuals just popped up out of nowhere (80s androgyny...). More like fans or the media didn't care enough to nitpick the **** out of it.

    THAT'S the huge ****in problem with people these days.

    Who cares about his femininity or lack there of.

    It's MORE about adding MUSCLE.

    AND STRENGTH.

    Couple of things:
    1. Curry is an average defensive player, who dogs and does a lot of dirty work. CP3/Harden are HOF, but even with them it was not an automatic basket. Compared to Lillard Curry is a better defender and that probably partially explains why one has rings and the other doesn't. He's tough.

    2. I am curious, when this board was calling Curry "Stefanie" and ridiculing him, what was the status of the culture wars? I don't remember seeing much? Is the wokeness only applicable with regard to players of certain teams? @O-dawg as an old time member and as a girl coach, did you take issue with people here calling Steph "Stefanie" derogatorily? Just curious...

    True story:

    I had a coworker whose wife was a staunch feminist. We were having dinner at their place after playing basketball at the gym. He said, "Hey, that girl was really good. She played like a dude." His wife overheard and smacked him on the head and said, "What did you say? Why did she has to play like a dude to be good?"

    That dude is not wise and his wife doesn't understand basketball

    A brotha is mercilessly attacked by you minions, it's a terrible construct we're under. It's rarely about basketball, usually hate.

    Nah. Not going to waste my time. If it is sarcasm or satire or comedy or whatever, cool.
