That's fine - bringing unrelated Nesmith takes into each thread is unnecessary, regardless of how thought out they are.

He posts when the Pacers play. It is the incessant flaming that others do that continue the posts.

If all that Nom posts about is Nesmith, then that should go in the Nesmith thread.

If it's only about the Pacers, then that should go in a Pacers thread.

I don't mind Nom posting in "my" thread about his favorite things, and it is part of the thread topic, but if it's just about those things, all the time, then I guess I start to mind as much as a number of the others here.

Shame about Hali's injury, though apparently not as severe as Ja's labial tear (I had to say that lol)

We have fascists around here?

You might have noticed that the Zion "shtick" tends to stay in the designated Zion thread.

And many fewer people care about Nesmith than they do about Fatboi

They're going to fall, and fall quickly.

I'd say it's almost amazing how little such important factors for team records are not broadcast and discussed as much as they should be.

But hardly anything in the human epistemic realm amazes me any longer

Fewer people purchase a filet mignon than load up on Big Macs, granted.

I don't want to go on a run-around as important distinctions keep getting missed over and over. (You and Nesmith are a lot like Hellcat and his 101 pumps.) Zion began as a big(-bodied) prospect in the Association, and looks to be in the process of fizzling out, which means fewer and fewer people interested in him.

Looks like the Spurs are interested in trading for Dejounte

Yeah. I don’t understand the hate for the guy. If you don’t like the posts just skip past.

Nomad has his own thread he started about his man crush that he dominates that thread on..

Said on this very thread not that long ago the negativity was well beyond what he could handle and he was done posting here...

Gasp!!! He came back

This forum means a ton to some people; and that’s okay. Im one of them.

We can’t underestimate this.

Forums could be seen as the apex of what the once free-wheeling Internet has to offer.

This has to be one of the most puzzling halftime stat lines ever.

It's pretty friecken hard when they're 60% of the content!!!!

I have no problem posting about the Pacers when they're playing. I do have a problem with the constant, unnecessary, irrelevant rubbish spewn about Nesmith - ESPECIALLY when he has his own thread for that!

And obviously there are several others who are also tired of the nonsense. People were actually happy when he said he'd left the thread (for all of 10 seconds). He's a troll and it's been long enough.

Dallas needs Lively ... a lot.

Since acquiring OG Anunoby in a trade, the Knicks have gone 5-0 and have won by an average of 22 points across those games

really underrated move for the Knicks

ninjacookies · 01-10-2024, 12:26 AM

OG is absolutely 3x the player RJ is. Actually plays defense and is a capable scorer when given the opportunity.

I still don't think the Knicks are anywhere near contention, but they at least rid themselves of a bloated player contract and upgraded in the process.

Nomad · 01-10-2024, 12:49 AM

And actually Quickley is giving the Raptors some nice darting ability. Popped reddish right in the horizontal chin with speed. win-win

ThatGuyPal · 01-10-2024, 01:17 AM

First game I'll admit it looked like Knicks won the trade. Quickley and RJ late fouls literally lost the game for Raptors, OG won it for Knicks.

Other than Philly let's not act like Knicks wouldn't of won anyway, I think Dallas and stopping Luka next will be a real test of this new team
