I'm going to leave the gambling analogy alone since it crumbled in your hands. I fail to understand your point behind saying Steph has had a better season than Pip ever has. Lambier recently said he would take Lebron over Jordan. Is Bill disqualified from having an astute opinion since he never averaged 32 8 8? lol
Pippen is absolutely qualified to make his opinion known. At the same time I'm qualified to make my opinion known on his
:heh:

I believe the poster used "manhandled" in terms of him getting dominated by Kyrie
:comeon: No. He posted this.
Imma keep it g real, you cant be viewed as a dominate player when you soft as fukk and can get manhandled like this



:comeon:Get your comprehension game up.

:comeon:Also...

Even if he was talking about Kyrie...Jordan got "manhandled" by the Pistons. Bron got "manhandled" TWICE by the Spurs. Once in the middle of his prime.

:comeon: So hold this L.

:comeon: Steph stay shytting on your favorite team (whatever team it is, don't matter) so next time they play lmk how not dominant he is.

I was wrong on the manhandled portion..

As far as the second part of your statement you proved my point in your own words which is really funny. I'll let you figure that out on your own tho lmao

You not making sense. You basically trying to tell me Im wrong becuz I don't agree with Pippen's opinion:hhh:

I was convinced you let it go! lol You resorted to the lil sister argument of "that's how I feel and whomever doesn't like it then tough" and I was content on letting you rock since you didn't want to take it there with substantial talking points. By the way other posters have disagreed with Pip's argument with reasoning to point to the contrary whereas you decided to make it about Pippen never having a season like Steph which was lazy on your behalf especially since the topic isn't "Pippen says he is a better player than Steph". This was a really bad exchange. Feel free to respond but I'm not going to read the shyt given the run you've been on.

Hibbert was damn near 300 pounds :usure:

:comeon: Stop it.

Roy Hibbert is 7'2 and 300lb.

Name a point guard in the league that could take him down...I'm waiting.

Steph didn't think twice about hopping out there.

All Bron does is flop and fake and pretend.

shyt is just fukking stupid.

This giant motherfukker probably rag dolling everyone.

Steph is dominant if that jumper is falling. But if he's off then he isn't impacting the game that much. While someone like Bron or Jordan could affect the game with rebounds assists defense. I think that is the point Scottie was trying to get at.

When Steph shot doesn't go down he can also become a liability on the defensive end. Kyrie has a better shot of shutting down Steph than Steph stopping Kyrie.

In the same regard Hakeem wouldn't have been as dominant without shooters either.

Teams couldn't send extra help his way because he was also an excellent passer that'd kick the ball out.

Dominant imo is anyone who can't be contained one on one for the most part (defenders would be successful every now and then) and who can make the correct pass (BBIQ) when the defense halts them. It's on everyone else to do their part on the team to make that offense what is it.

Steph and Hakeem both fit that. To say one isn't doninant would be saying the other isn't either. Hakeem was levels better defensively but Steph is levels better shooting and passing.

He's right or he's wrong depending on how you want to read it.

I think he meant more like "physically dominating" like a Shaq or a Lebron.
Steph Curry knows this better than anyone, that's why he's mastered the art of dominating the game by his presence. Guys have to defend him even when he doesn't have the ball, which is very dominating, it's just not in the traditional way.

:dwillhuh:

How much impact you have on a game isn't through some basic ass box score measurements.
