So we can see here now that this is the Hubie Brown thread. Ok, so you say to yourself "Well why is this the Hubie Brown thread?" Well mainly because it's fun to talk like Hubie Brown. Now we know that when you have a forum, and a person who talks a certain way, it's just going to be natural to put them together ok. Mainly because that's just what we like to do. But now watch right here, you can see how I'm making a thread about Hubie Brown while talking like Hubie Brown. Now that's impressive.
I like your game. Now we know you put a lot of work in this thread but it's questionable if others will appreciate it.
Now, give Akrazotile a lot of credit. He has the right observations and made something out of it. He built this thread the right way and it's paying dividends.

See, mike, now this is impressive, you've got a poster who can see what another poster is doing, so he acknowledges that he knows the other poster is doing it. Now why do we like that? Well first of all because it lets you know what a poster is thinking, and second of all ok you get some teamwork involved. So you say, well why do we like teamwork? Well, mainly because without having any team work, the team is not going to work as well as you would like it to ok.

Now this is really something here, we've got a second poster who understands what's going on, and he says to himself 'ok, i'm gonna make something happen'. Well you say how does he know? Mainly because he's a high IQ poster who knows how to sacrifice his game to help the thread. You just love to see that, you really do.

Come on now,you gotta appreciate what he does. He's taking over and keeping this thread alive all by himself. And that's the beauty of his game. The ability to preform under pressure.
"plenty of time here" (when a team is behind in a close game with little time left)
"See, the most dangerous guy is the guy out of bounds"
"See, Mike, the perimeter people have to do a better job of getting it to the post people"

damn you beat me to it lmao
No one is bigger than the forum. You're going to be on time, you're going post hard, you're going to know your place and you're going to know when to reply or pass. If you can't do those four things you're not getting noticed here and we don't care who you are.

:applause:
Now mike, as an OP, this is something you just love to see. Everyone is getting involved and moving the idea around, and posters are stepping up and showing that they belong on this level. That's not something we are always accustomed to seeing, hum ha hm heh haha ok! But really it's just great effort, great execution, and as you can see these guys are starting to feel comfortable posting together as a unit.
Now Geriatric is upset here. You see he wishes that he had been clever enough to think of this thread first. Come on, it's so obvious but still brilliant. But you've got to give OP credit for jumping on this first, it's good for him and good for the team. Now why are we beating this idea like a dead horse we ask? Well we see here that we clearly like repetition of good stuff.
Now see, you have to look at his thread, and why it is so successful, it's all about opportunity. They are making high-percentage posts.
:roll: :roll: :roll:
I like this thread. Manly because I don't really like Hubbie.

Now you have to be careful here, you have a poster who is capable of knocking down the open joke, but you want to make sure he is doing it within the flow of the offense. If you watch right here, you see that he's posting the things I say, but not actually talking like me hismelf ok. Well why is that a problem, well mainly because I like his point about the perimeter people and the post people, but he's got to do a better job of following the instructions of the thread.
score the ball
Ohhh what a thread.
You just have to simply give a lot of credit to the OP. The OP made a strong move to the rim and didn't let the defense dictate what he would do. Mainly because the OP is very persistence. Now you have to appreciate OP
[QUOTE=Alan Ogg]score the ball[/QUOTE]
Absolutely. Absolutely. That's one of the main keys we talked about earlier ok, you have to score the ball in order to come away from here with a win. Simple as that.

ok now read this thread with this image in your head....
Now this thread has the potential to be a top 10 thread. The idea is there, the execution is there, and the contributors are there, but there is still that missing piece of who is going to take over and compliment Akrazotile's sheer brilliance, who by the way, is a rookie poster with just a little more than 100 posts in his career, but you have to break down the numbers and see that he's posting 37.83 posts a game and that's tremendous, something we have only seen from a few guys in this league, and what's great about this is that he's doing it with substance, he's doing it with grace, and not nonsense. He's a no nonsense player and loves to work hard at it, and whenever the reputation system returns in this league, I think he should deserve a lot of green bars.
Now you gotta love what op is doing here Mike. Now you see, Jeff threw not one, but two bans at him, but he doesn't let that disrupt the offence. He makes the smart pass to Akrazotile, who knocks down the open 10-footer. Now this team right now isn't great, and you say "Well why aren't they better, with so many posters at the top of their game?" And it's because they got a lot of rookies, who don't know their roles yet. And then you say "Well Akrazotile is a rookie, and he may well be a top 5 poster in the league right now" And you'd be right, but he's a rookie in name only, he has the composure of a veteran, and a high basketball IQ, just look at the thread he made, that's a veteran move.
G.O.A.T. Thread

Now give this thread a lot of credit.
"Oh alright that's just talkingconch doing what he does best, he's giving the other team all they can handle right now."
"you see if you don't win the jump ball you gain possession at the start of the 2nd and 3rd quarters"
[QUOTE=Akrazotile]Absolutely. Absolutely. That's one of the main keys we talked about earlier ok, you have to score the ball in order to come away from here with a win. Simple as that.[/QUOTE]
Now give this guy all the credit. He's worked very hard getting other people involved, okay. He can run a thread while still giving you at least four quality ideas per post. The creativity is there.
lol just turned league pass and hubie brown is on. nice thread
Now you see what's happening here? Chewing is concerned that since the thread has potential, he's forced to pick page 2 and not the 1 in order to see the thread develop. Classic fundamental progress in being part of something special. Instead of the open pass to another thread and go the route of making fun of Lebron, Chewing decides to take the shot and post in the thread. Now you see, OP's worked very hard to get everyone involved and you can see here in the replay when he sets the screen to Insidehoops, he clicks on New Thread and it opened up the lane for a late flurry of replies.

Great thread and great impression but you left out one of his main staples:

You have got to attack the basket with strong two handed finishes ok? Layups and going up with one hand will not get it done against a defense like this ok? I mean cause let's face it (Player X) is a man's man (laughing) ok and this guy will send your shot flying right back at you.[/quote]
He doesn't give a sh*t if the player can dunk or not, he's still gonna say this regardless.
