Season III : Advantage, Francis The Bulls traded Brand. Story's over. Tee hee. ------------------ NBA Naming contests... They're CRAPTASTIC!!!
is it me or does brand seem to be a little fruity... ------------------ i just wasted a couple seconds of your life while u read my post...this one is a bonus...
yeah when he smiles I get the shivers, he has that niceness that is toooooo nice. . . anyhoooooo where is gettingbranded, oh thats right still looking for someone elses words to use in his next post ------------------
What I wonder is how long this troll will continue to be an Elton Brand fan? ------------------ Anger is a weed. Hate is a tree.
Team loyalty is OK.. but when you come on to another team's board to piss people off.. like gettinbranded always does.. it is then considered trolling. If he went to a general NBA BBS and said this I wouldnt care.. but NOT IN MY HOUSE! I say if he continues this trolling.. his IP should be banned. He has no positive impact on this board. ZRB atleast has the decency to post a positive Rockets post! ------------------ BILL KENNEDY SUCKS!
He'll probably come back as gettinCurry'd and compare high school stats to Stevie's stats as a runnin' raven. ------------------ If you have nothing nice to say, say it anyway.
You guys shouldn't be so harsh on GBranded, it's not his fault a 3 month old topic was bumped up. The funny thing is he only has 1 post in this thread, it's not like he's been flooding this thread with a bunch of nonsense. (If you want to see that, then you can go searching the fantasy forum for the most recent bit of BS...the fantasy dwellers know what I'm talking about... ) You have to admit that some Rockets fans are slightly delusional as well, saying Steve Francis is currently better than Allen Iverson despite Iverson carrying his team to the finals is an example that comes to mind. Anyway you guys shouldn't be so harsh on GB, he's a bulls fan, I hear that's a pretty depressing position at the moment... ------------------ So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking, Racing around to come up behind you again. The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older, Shorter of breath and one day closer to death. [This message has been edited by Pete Rose Mobster (edited July 15, 2001).]
I make positive contributions to the board? Are you thinking of a different ZRB? ------------------ Protrolls.com! "I want to be like Olajon." -Sagana Diop has the right idea... Keep the ???? alive!
who cares? we got Hakeem to worry about. Taylor, Moochie, Shandon...let's settle this when the Rocks play the CLips in the season. Better yet who has more wins and makes the play-offs. ------------------ Your best? Loser whine about thier best.
"You have to admit that some Rockets fans are slightly delusional as well, saying Steve Francis is currently better than Allen Iverson despite Iverson carrying his team to the finals is an example that comes to mind." *-Iverson led his team to the Finals from the CBA, AKA the Eastern Conference. In the West, Philly is more than likely a lottery team like the Rockets were this year. And there's no way they make the finals from the west. As for Iverson vs. Francis, look at it this way. Both are fabulous athletes with amazing quickness and speed. Iverson scores more PPG but shoots .420 compared to Francis' .451. If Francis' goal was to hoist up as many shots a game as he physically could or to lead the league in scoring, don't you think he could sacrifice his shooting % a few points to score more? Iverson is better than Francis at creating his own shot, but is not as accurate an outside shooter as Stevie. Francis gets the edge in intangibles as well: Iverson is a notorious whiner who can't coexist with teammates who actually enjoy shooting the ball once in a blue moon (Stackhouse, Larry Hughes, Kukoc). Hell, Iverson was nearly traded this past offseason because of his horrible attitude problem. He seems to have matured somewhat, but I'm not 100 % sold on that yet. He seems like the kind of guy who won't be happy unless he is allowed to jack up 30-35 shots a game. Thank the Good Lord Francis is not so selfish and such a ballhog. I think he'll evolve into a player who is better than Iverson is right now, if Steve isn't better already. As for the original thread, if the 99 Draft were held today, Francis would be the #1 pick more than likely, with Brand going either #2 or #3 behind Baron Davis. ------------------ Get Cato out of there...
Yep, I guess it must be that biased media that decided to name Allen Iverson MVP over Steve Francis.... ------------------ President of the CC.net Realist Club, everyone needs a dose of reality once in a while...
Steve Francis shouldn't have won it either, but I can't see how you could argue the media wasn't biased. Did you watch the Sixers this year? They were a team that capitalized on a weak conference, and actually didn't even have the best record in the NBA. You saw what happened when the Rockets went to Philly-- they won by 25. The Sixers were a good team, but did they deserve to have the MVP, Coach of the Year, Sixth Man of the Year, and the Defensive Player of the year. No team that I recall has dominated the awards like the Sixers did this year, and there's no doubt that there have been much better team than the Sixers in the past years. ------------------ Draftsource.net-- the premier source for draft info.
