You can't. The sites owner is just lazy.

On the bottom you can see "sort threads by".

You can click "Thread Starter", if you know the user who created the thread. It goes by alphabetical order.

you can search the forum with google.

include "http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/" along with whatever search string you're looking for.


http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/ trump

if you're looking for a particular phrase or sentence, encase it in quotes.


http://www.insidehoops.com/forum/ "i hate trump"

Or an even quicker way to find Trump threads is to just visit the Politics Forum right now and see Trump threads on every page.

If you can afford it, money is not an issue, then I would hire a group of people to manually go through the list of every topic on the specific forum, and have them mark down all of the Duncan and Lebron related threads. Maybe you can hire someone who can benefit from the income and knows the site really well. Perhaps Wheels, or Axe, or maybe even RRR3 who works in front of a computer. Bladef could also be a good candidate, though I'm not sure how dedicated he would be in terms of making sure that he does a good job.

Or just create your own personal web crawler to crawl the whole website with its own search feature.

Or if possible, just give a ISH donation, and one of the mods can help you. I believe Jasper has mod privileges, since he's the mod of one of the other sub forums.
