Grantland: What if This is OKC's Last Shot?

[#1hiphopjunki3]

@greenwood1921‌

On the serious tip, why do you keep bringing up the Spurs?

From the bit I read most of the Spurs fans on the site don't have any problem with OKC (they may have a problem with you though). I personally don't have a problem with them and if my Spurs can't win it I would root for OKC because I like their core group and I can tell Presti took a lot of the way's San Antonio looked at team building to heart after leaving from their.

Not even trying to be funny or anything, just curious.

Why do you think bringing up the spurs is some kind of diss? Or are you just irritated that I'm bringing up bad memories of a team that otherwise always has a "squeaky clean" rep (mostly because nobody cares enough or bothers to hate on them in the media or the innanets.)

It's called using a logical comparison.

Our team's owner used to be part owner of the Spurs.

Our General Manager comes from the spurs.

If you feel some type of way about me interrupting the pristine "unbeatable" reputation your team seems to have right now -- that's on you. Let me know if I say something that's not true about the Spurs, and feel free to explain why (not excuses, but facts) and I might refrain. Thanks.

Your comparisons I agree are some what logical due to everything you stated. Just seems like you have some type of malice towards the Spurs and I was wondering why.

I never said anything about the Spurs being "unbeatable" and being a fan of this team since 89-90 (yeah I'm old compared to a lot of the posters, lol) I know how it felt to root for them even when they always came up short in the playoffs. So you pointing out their past short comings isn't something I'm not privy too.

It just seems odd to me that most of the people roasting your team aren't fans of the team you always have in your mouth.

Ohhh, I get it. You think that since some nikkas say some silly shit (most of which is just self ether) about my squad, I'm supposed to spend all my time on this message board clicking feelings and dry-hating on THEIR squads too, right?

Nah.

I don't let innanet nikkas control how I feel about sports teams. That's for weak minded nikkas who grew up with their Grandma as the closest thing they had to a male role model.

If I'm speaking on or for my team (sarcastically or not, lol) I'm doing it for my team. And won't give a half a fuck about that nikkas team.

But I will laugh at his ass for popping shit about a winning contender if their squad hasn't been relevant since nikkas was rocking Fubu jerseys.

I guess that's the difference between me and you (and the rest that just love clicking feelings) -- My opinions on sports topics are not and cannot be swayed by some nikka on the internet.

Spurs are a rival conference team to my team. Don't really "hate them", but I don't like'em either. And if I did, something is wrong with me.

*shrug*

I appreciate this explanation way more than your initial one to my honest inquiry I had previously.

I like seeing some of the takes on various sports topics on here because a few folks do have pretty good outlooks on them. If it is different from my own observations I respectfully disagree and maybe even share why I feel the way I do. I also give credit to where credit is due if the person is making sense and actually gave me a new perspective on the topic at hand. I have no problem admitting that I might be wrong or misjudged certain things because no one is infallible.

Good luck to your team and if they do beat my squad I hope they win the championship

It all started with Spurs in 5 in 2012

I don't be on as much but I'm surprised with the heel turn he's taking...

@greenwood1921‌

What happened bruh? When did niggas turn on you?

It was all good just a year ago...

 

[#1hiphopjunki3]

@ocelot‌

Appreciate the recap on the whole situation.

I think @greenwood1921‌ is a pretty knowledgeable poster on the NBA, I was just a little surprised how he was going in on the Spurs so much when their isn't a lot of fans of them on the site. Not to mention the few that are on here are pretty chill.

It is what it is though.

 

[greenwood1921]

Is it really a Saturday afternoon where y'all live? Pffft.

@#1hiphopjunkie

I feel u, broskie. Still stand by point.

Shouts out to you being one of the only spurs fan on here that shows up when the spurs aren't favored and/or on a 30 game win streak tho.

 

[ocelot]

It that was true I would be here everyday because we're always the favorites and we've only lost 20 games this season...

It was the wild west back in the day...

Check out the How far the Spurs will go thread to see what it was like.

In hindsight I don't see how you CANT look at the Harden trade as an L for OKC.

That said this article is ridiculously premature. And that comparison to the Kings is off base as well. Chris Webber was in his prime years, Divac was already a grizzled vet. Mike Bibby was made to look better than he was by Derek Fisher's terrible pick and pop defense. (Word to Troy Hudson who also briefly looked like quality NBA player in a playoff series vs the Lakers) their window was much smaller. 1-2 years at best. If Durant and Westbrook stay together, they still have a legit 7-8 year window.

7-8 MORE years? ...B/c they been together 6....

7 years from now they'll be like 33... So yes

Lol Kd will be straight,but fast pace, knee surgery Russ? We been callin D wade 'washed wade'since he was 29. Pippen's back failed him by 32. Baron davis, francis, marbury were all done by 30....Ijs. And of course i dnt wish bad health on them, but Simmons has a point in sayin we sound silly thinkin this gon last forever

 

[Bcotton5]

Harden disappeared in the playoffs the past few seasons

Meh.

Really ain't that serious. I point them out as "feelings clickers" cause they know who they are and it's a easy way to abbreviate.

As for "OKC hate" - If a nikka posts his opinion on a sports topic and I disagree with it, I don't hesitate to make my opinion known if I give enough fucks.

Nikkas that know better know that I express my opinions on a wide range of shit on here - only time the feelings babies start clickin is when it's about my squad and when of course...

...they lack the ability to factually and intelligently prove me wrong.

If they had "offline reaction buttons" somebody like Donald Sterling would click feelings on every black person he knows. And some of y'all would click feelings on every bish that didn't give you the pussy. lol

Some people click feels to express their own feels and others do it the right way.

But most just use it when they don't have shit else to say and can't articulate a real response.

Like a 6 year old white kid calling somebody a "big poopy head" or some shit. lol

Ironically while I have zero control over what "OKC" does, I seem to be the VP and GM of nikkas emotions on here.

Hence the random lyrics I post that I know nikkas just love to see when they're trying so desperately to fail-troll. lol
