Needed to be said. Some of the threads and posts in recent weeks are completely knee-jerk reactionary BS.
Re: I think...we have hit the peak. Never before have more people needed to....
knee-jerk is part of the whole scenario.

[QUOTE=WillyJakk]I gotta chime in cause if I didn't then... well, I wouldn't be me.
I can't completely rock w/ the op simply because it's coming off as you (I presume a bball fanatic) are really making excuses for "professional athletes" to basically come into their work environment unprepared (out of shape/ not ready mentally) due to them being locked out and it seems you're ok w/ that.
I am not ok w/ that because to me things like that weed out those who take their craft seriously and those who take it for granted.
Is it a fact, no, it's my observation/ opinion which leads me to my next point:
You claim to be "anti-troll" due to your "online rep" but you pretty much make a troll thread about being tired of troll threads, which by the way is your prerogative which of course is every members prerogative to make a thread about what they observe, no matter how ludicrous it may be.
If someone feels Wade or CP3 is slippin' or MarShon Brooks is the next Kobe or the Mavs should blow it up then maybe it's true, maybe it isn't, but it IS their prerogative to make such a thread.
The way you worded this thread title I came in here expecting some bball insite and a hot bball conversation, had I known the thread was about this I would've used my discretion to NOT click on this thread, which all peeps have the ability to do.
I guess your mission was accomplished because you got a reaction so....
W/ that being said, I bid you ado...

Nah...I find the OP fueled by common sense...This season is waaaaay too early for some of the posts that we've seen. I realize that some of these wild posts are being made by some of the younger ISH heads who maybe don't know better. But it has been getting ridiculous...
Still entertaining though...

You realise a lot of them will be for entertainment purposes... i.e enjoy winding certain people up, don't see the problem myself, better than the endless threads full of ppg, fg% and per.........

Of course they disagree with this thread.. It's about them needing to slow down and STFU.

[QUOTE=Kblaze8855]......shut the **** up.
And by that I dont literally mean stop posting. And I dont even mean talk less. I am a hall of fame level windbag at times online and even in person...am one of the most verbose mother****ers you could encounter. But still I must say....
Some of these topics early this season has me wanting to kick down your doors and throw you in the torture rack till you tap and I refuse to break the hold.
Over the last couple decades ive heard a lot of early season idiocy. We all have. From Flip Murray>Ray Allen to Baron Davis for MVP to a 67 win team needed to be broken up because their playoff days are done(The Mavs started like 1-5 after making the finals). Ive heard that Drew gooden would be the best bigman in the NBA by now(look at his first few games...you will see why).
But this shit is a whole other level.
We are coming off a lockout. Like 20% of the NBA is visibly out of shape. Training camp was like 5 days and there are rookies playing who have only had like 5 workouts with the team and 2 preseason games. with the compressed schedule some teams will only have like 10-12 total days of planned practice for the SEASON.
There are still teams with players lost overseas scattered around the world....solid rotation players still free agents....at least one team is trying to implement elements learned from Oregon FOOTBALL that has only been worked on in coaches only scrimmages with 60 year old hall of famers and fat assistants playing the roles of Lebron and Wade.
We are 4 or 5 games into the season with only 2 preseason games.
Normally...the regular seasons begins after a month of practice, preseason games, and so on...and its not after 6 months of being locked out and 8 months after the last regular season ended...
This board is full of people of at least average mental ability who have the benefit of knowing all the above facts that point to the near irrelevancy of the first week of play...
And still....
We have people who actually use season averages to make a point as if 4 games of averages means anything(A guy like Kobe might average 55 for 4 games...or 18). have guys like rose, Wade, Kobe, CP3, Durant, Rondo, and Lebron either treated as gods are trash after one nights work.
After 2 games Kobe was back...after 5....hes Bynums sidekick.
Wade might no longer be elite.
The gotdamn Pacers are contenders...due to the #1 d...acquired by playing the Raptors, cavs, and Pistons....
I really cant believe some of this shit.
Id give anything to have a button to press to make someone climb through some of your windows and bust you in the head with a sack of doorknobs for some of these claims.
Even midseason runs in regular normal seasons dont mean shit. In 93 the Bulls lost 8 of 14 games at one point(including a game Jordan dropped 64 points)...
But 2 bad games in this situation...when the games being played would normally be preseason....after no off season....really no camp...tons of new systems being put in without being worked on...
Still....we find it possible to draw such solid conclusions.
Really?[/QUOTE]
lol. ISH is one unprofessional board. Even the Admin trolls from time to time.
:hammerhead: :hammerhead: I swear this board is ran by teenagers.
