    Its fascinating to hear the word "cognitive dissonance" thrown around among all the ad hominem attacks, Strawmen, hasty generalizations, false cause, false dichotomies, non sequiturs and ad ignorantum arguments on this topic! The founders of logic are looking down with a big grin!

    Lets just throw in a little Dunning Kruger while we're at it! LOL

    In the game thread this weirdo was actually saying he likes Jalen Greens shot or some crazy thing like that just to feel part of the flow! It was so funny after the lengths he and his bandmates have gone to trash the kid to see those fake ass compliments was sublime!!

    Oh....you poor simpleton.

    Concepts like reacting to what happens in a game in an unbiased manner go completely over your head.

    When Green shoots well, I say he shoots well. When he doesn't, I say he doesn't.

    I know everything you have to say about him comes down to firmly held religious conviction......but some of us aren't weirdos like you are killer.

    Nah, man, admit it, you really wanted to be "part of the flow" and for the greenies to like you. I think our resident shrink here diagnosed you spot-on.

    You should be happy that with your real life imposing nature no one would dare speaks to you in this manner in real life. Be proud of that veteran.


    And yes you brought up the fact that people wouldn't talk to you in the manner they do here because you believe you are imposing hence why when you backed up that assertion to someone you used your veteran status to defend that premise.

    You are the unhinged one. Because even if someone undeservedly loves Green as a basketball player to the point they are "cultists", that's a drop in he bucket in terms of problematic behavior compared to the mental health issues you constantly display on this message board for the past decade.

    Look killer, I know you think your internet tough guy act is convincing, but let's face it, given what I know about you, it's likely you are about 5'9 tops. Sure you probably beat your significant other when she hides the crayons from you, and that might make you feel tough.....but there's no chance you go around in real life running your mouth at random strangers. I simply don't believe you.

    LOL, if there's one thing people know about me, it's that I'm CLEARLY a crowd pleaser. I have a reputation of deeply caring what the consensus on any given thing is. He got me.

    Hey guys, can you please, have a more coherent psychological evaluation of the poster? Is he abrasive and unhinged, or conformist and trying to "fit the vibe"? These are you know, kinda opposite :)

    Kobe was 6'4 and 3/4, as measured by his wife. He was 6'6 in shoes. Current measurements in the NBA are done without shoes on, and I believe Green's 6'4. What's your issue there exactly, apart from you know, throwing **** at a wall trying to make it stick?

    Green is always on the cusp of being incredibly inefficient and incredibly efficient every game. His efficiency right now depends solely on whether he can make 3's and draw fouls. Much like Harden. He doesn't really have the ability to finish layups on a consistent basis in the half court yet.

    Like last night, he made 3 three pointers, and drew 7 FT's. But he could have easily gone 1-7 from 3, and refs swallowed their whistles like in the GS game and people would act like the world is ending.

    Until he can consistent get a high percentage layups to fall in, there will be huge variance in his efficiency even if he does the same thing every night. My thought is his No.1 priority is hitting open 3's, You can't depend on the refs to make the right calls because they are inconsistent, but you can make sure you hit the wide open shots that's given to you.

    The former. And trust me on this...


    Very few posters here would disagree with me here. Especially the ones who've been here for a while and had to handle said poster in multiple other subforums.

    Ja's 6'3. That looks a lot more than an inch in height difference to me...

    I think you’re closer to it. So the other Shrink Shady is talking out of his azz as usual… I like bobby but he could be nicer from time to time.

    LOL. Don’t tell @CXbby . He’s convinced Green is 6’3 for whatever dumb reason.

    These crazy kids are just lashing out blindly at those they perceive as infidels.

    It's okay, I've come to expect it from then.

    I mean, let's be honest. The dude's more than exposed himself as a troll at this point. Either that are somebody so gripped in delusion he has little grasp on reality.

    100% agree with this.

    Increasing his 3 point % even 3-6% would do wonders. Fortunately for Green it's one of the easiest things to work on in the NBA

    I still don’t think NBA measurements are right. Ja listed at 6’3, Trae at 6’1/6’2 depending on where you look
