I think you are seriously exaggerating my predictions, I believe last year I was around 54 or 55 wins...... And the team did win 52 games. Our argument was whether Rafer and Juwan were NBA starters, not all stars or even top of the line starters, but rather starters, and I was 100% right, they are marginal starters but starters nonetheless. Now, with that said, their deficiencies led me to believe that the team would not be able to compete, and thus my barking over and over that Billy needed playing time. There is no rollar coaster, you just take people's thoughts and extrapolate them out to the extreme, as I have told you many times Sam, it is shades of gray, not black and white. Just because I think 2 players are starters, does not equal me believing the team is championship worthy, those are different sides of different arguments. This year's team, I feel much different about, they have the talent to win it all, and are arguably the most talented Rockets team top to bottom ever assembled. Gonna be fun. DD
No I'm not exaggerating at all. You predict championship contention every single year, and now you're retroactively contemporaneously (does not sound like that phrase should exist, but in your world it does) claiming that the Rockets should just tank and play young players since it's obvious to any rational observert that they have no real chance despite winning 50 games. You're a human yo-yo.
You are so full of garbage you could be a barge floating off of New Jersey's shoreline. I have NEVER predicted championship other than this year......a playoff team, sure, but not championship. You just have a comprehension problem. DD
You are such a joke. I said championship CONTENTION. You are the one who can't read. Anyway, I will explain to you that this is clearly what you predict - every single year. Then you retroactively contemporaneously change it after the fact - like you are doing right now. That is why your posts are taken as a joke by many. BTW if the Rockets don't win a title this year are you going to say they should have started Landry, Brooks, and Harris - oh i forgot none of them are white, european or went to duke so I am guessing not...
Does anyone else predict that these two will end up in a steamy embrace? (hint: I do not mean Snackbar and Wince Carter.)
Yeah, that is to the ignorant who can't understand the difference between being in the playoffs and being a true contender, step up to the front of the line Sammy ! When they turn search on, go find a post where I say they will be champions. Wanna bet? Taken as a joke by you, and the JVG nuthuggers contingent. Pot, Kettle, Black. LOL - keep trying to put words in other people's mouths Sammy, o-king of assumption. I have said already, I think they are TRUE contenders this year, not just a marginal playoff team, but a true contender, so I don't expect them to develop anyone. If you can understand the concept of A=B, B=C, therefore A=C, then you will get the idea that there is a big difference betwen being a championship contender and a mear playoff participant. You can keep trying Sam.......one day you will be relevant. Isn't it funny that this argument is in a thread that outlines an argument I easily won on...... You - Boki is Garbage Me - He needs time to develop I have exposed you so often that you should be in prison for indecent BBS exposure.... Game, Set, Match....the winner and still champion....DaDakota........ DD
Yes, Dadakota, my child, I know you do. I have heard you say this last year. And the year before. And the year before. Why should we believe you now and not then? Why does it have any more credibility than a claim that Dan Dickau (white) is a great player like you did back in 2005? Or your predictions of greateness for JJ Redick (white, Duke)?
Now, you are simply a liar, well done Sam. Or maybe you will refer to it as creative writing........ Either way, I have not predicted championship until this year no matter how many times you say it, that doesn't make it true...Sam Dubya Fisher. DD
Which would be zero. While we are denying things that didn't happen, I did not give you those birth defects and did not not wear a condom.
Learn context junior. No matter how many times YOU imply that I said they were a championship contender - for the record, only this year......even though you continually say I predict them to win it all...every year......which is a lie. Ah, the old, losing your a$$ in an argument deflection tactic, got it. Sam Dubya Fisher......OWNED again. (I flick you off my shoulder like the flea you are). Boki is still a good player, which you denied would ever happen...... DD
Learn context junior - actually, wait, just learn english. And you did say they were championship contenders. you say it every year. it is as predictable as you falling in love with a whitey or a euro or a dookie. Edit: this edit is to say how awesome it was that you edited the post above to include the word OWNED - man that is rude.
Prove it, because I am saying you are full of bunk, so, find a post where I say they are going to win it all before this year, in fact go through all the prediction posts where we predict records etc, you will find I am VERY accurate almost every year, with the exception of the TMac and Yao injury year.......but still did NOT predict a championship. Sam Fisher = Liar. You should be used to it, because lately you are my Gimp, and living in a box in my basement. No cuddling for Sam "Gimp/Liar" Fisher. And again, no word on Boki, the thread topic? You know where you said he was never going to amount to anything and was Eurotrash? Typical, duck and cover Fisher. DD
Yeah, well thanks Dr. Phil, now try to work on telling the truth, you might look in the mirror and discover a person inside that troll costume you wear around here. Good day sir ! DD
"Need time to develop"? Meaning 5 seasons to develop into a guy who plays 20 minutes a game? That's a lot of time and money spend developing a 20 mpg player.
