I know. Now that they've signed Durant and drafted Zion, the sky is the limit.

I heard Trae Young was training with Kobe in the off season :beer:

They are really bad at stopping the other team from scoring.

debaserr 10-27-2019 05:18 PM

Warriors look like they are in full blown tank mode. Not a bad idea. What's the point of rushing Klay back for the playoffs with this depleted roster?

They acquired Willie Caulie Stein and DLo, two putrid defenders. Do they like someone in this upcoming draft a lot?

I bet they trade DLo if they can.

Don't get me wrong... The Golden State Warriors are a great team. But they should stay in Oakland (They should play their home games in Oakland.) They should not move to San Francisco... Let me tell you why... Oakland is a special mysterious city, unlike San Francisco. (No offense to the people from San Francisco.)

So I guess you prefer the Raiders over 49ers (at least until they move to Vegas) and A's over Giants.

Such a pleasure to see.
The Big 4-1 left the team in good hands.

That Mavs draft day trade was a real masterstroke.

Maybe it’s because the Hawks are so bad they’re worried his lack of exposure wouldn’t generate any buzz for the national team.

I won’t blame him for ditching Atlanta since my Hawks won’t build a team around him.

Idk, I think they're trying. They have a good young core with him and Collins and some potential in Hunter and Reddish.

15-41

I mean, if you even know about their roster you know more than me but I’ve been a fan since I was a kid, Hawks Braves and Falcons


The Hawks have never been to the Finals. After they blew up that team that made the Eastern Finals - after 40 years - idk - this season the constant Vince Carter farewell tour. Hawks getting blown out every night and then it’s hugs all around for Vince Carter. He’s great but his final season being his only one as a Hawk. And they suck. And he’s the main story every night.

I’m probably wrong about not building the team around him. If you say so I believe you but if there’s ever been a city that’s designed to have a good NBA team it's Atlanta so my patience is tried.

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 02-14-2020 05:10 AM

Nah, I understand. They've definitely been stagnant in recent years. They had a stretch in the late 2000s/early 2010s similar to the Raptors prior to last year, where they were consistently an outside playoff team. Good enough to not get a lottery pick but too bad to make it past the first or second round.

Braves have a great roster though, especially if they can make a move for a 3rd baseman to replace Donaldson. So at least you have that.

debaserr 02-14-2020 08:08 AM

Trae is a great player but he's kind of bi-polar.

One of the best offensive players, the absolute worst defensive player.

It's not surprising to see team USA wants 2 way players.

The Braves are a far better run franchise obviously but goddamn are they ****ing heartbreakers. I kind of had to let go of baseball a little bit after that infield fly rule game.

For me it's not even just them being a good team, they just always end up with great players who you just want to root for. Maddux, Smoltz, and Glavine. Chipper Jones and Andruw Jones. Now they have Acuna, Albies, and Freeman.

It's so hard not to like them when they manage to always get the most likeable players.

Acuna is especially awesome for how upset he makes the old school boomer white men.

They got upset because he decided 100M was plenty of dough.

Ill share my business news on sports cards in here since its all sports. Just put a bid on two graded cards, a kobe & a lebron. I have 6 here still. But sold $100 worth at my pops store. which is a the fancy news I wanted to share. He sold 6 boxes of 1000 cards for 15 each I had up there and then $90 in cards in cases I brought up there. I gave him $80 of the $180.


Im shocked someone bought the 6000 cards though. That was $90 plus $10 each for 9 cards.


So I brought up 10 more cards for $5 each https://i.imgur.com/N0W9kVR.png

Ima just pay with my gains on my other business. its only $15 for two graded cards. https://boxden.com/smilies/ZmNKex5.png

Selling mine for Just $150 (others got theirs listed for $1000-2000)

I don't know about cards but I know from buying used games online that if you mark the price down too much people will just assume it's fake or ****ed up.

I know, but listing for over $500 is silly for a card that have 98 others. If it was a 1 of 1, then $1000 or more would be more realistic.

Mindfulness 08-03-2020 07:39 PM

I think your example of someone thinking my card is fake happened batlord :o:

some dude bought the #66/99 (mines #64) for $275 when mine was listed as $175 :o:

why spend more for the same card? :o: he could have bought mine for cheaper

i still think mine will sell
