See what happens when you put Harden in a city with no attractive strippers?

They shoulda let him get 50

you're sleeping on the strippers from sac

 

[coldcity]

 

 

yall have a better chance of landing one that the Bulls do

would you say thats cuz of the bulls crooked management?

not crooked as much as cheap as **** & the fact no one ever comes here on thier own... they are either traded or drafted

its like that for almost all teams though

not many big name stars ever switch teams without being traded

Not commenting specifically, but I will say I've had some good times in Sac-Town.

@sea manup @zyzz wheres kobe on that list?

that matters?

Can we maybe just acknowledge that there is no clear-cut best PF in the game? There's 4 or 5 guys that are in the first tier and any one is capable of outplaying the others on a given night. So I'm just going to enjoy watching them all without worrying about ranking them.

No. None of that first tier ish man you watch the game you see who clearly puts up numbers on a consistent basis night in night out...and i aint talking guys that just got on the scene RIGHT NOW Each category stat line Kevin Love (Best 4 In The Game) >>>>>>>>>>>

I resent the fact that people say Dirk always had good teammates. He had good teammates from 99-05, and in 2011. Other than that, he's never had another All-Star around him unless you want to count Josh Howard.

Monta and Calderon are good players, but nothing compared to what other great PFs have right now.

By comparison, Blake Griffin, Chris Bosh, and LMA all have much better teams. The only player that doesn't is Kevin Love.

And I don't buy the Kevin Love hype because if you're that good, the best PF in the game, you gotta be able to win your team basketball games. You gotta carry them to the Playoffs. KG did it with his Wolves. Dirk did it after Nash and Fin left.

He's great, will give you great stats, but looks like he can't be that number one guy.

You gotta give him another year or two before you crown him but its coming.

If he's the best, then he's the best.

But I was partly trolling with the post.

This is what I'm saying if dude is as good as his numbers say the wolves should be winning more

just doesn't add up unless dudes just a looter in a riot

Man stop it, Dirk has ALWAYS had talent around him besides last season

Josh Howard/Jason Terry/Jerry Stackhouse/Jason Kidd **** even Devin Harris had his best years there.

He had 4 other guys scoring double digits consistently and Josh Howard putting up damn near 20 a game.

Kevin Love plays with a PG who can't shoot from anywhere on the court, Kevin Martin, Pek and a lot of guys you can't name


Yet he still has them at about .500 in the stacked West

 

[dman14]

there's a reason why those guys were having their best yrs playing with dirk.

The T'Wolves are +9.1 per 48 with him on floor, -9.2 without him this season.

Honestly, I don't know who is the best PF right now.

Each PF that's in the top 5-6 have different games, strengths/weaknesses. I can tell you one thing, none of them are complete players. Whether that's Love, Blake, LMA, Dirk, Davis, ZBo, or whoever you want to name. For the most part, the majority of them are not that good defensively and that to me is pretty important in basketball. I think in a year or two, Davis will be better than all of them simply because he can play both sides of the ball. Not only will he be able to play both sides of the ball, but DOMINATE both sides. What made players like KG and Duncan special.

Zbo makes Blake his ***** on most nights and specifically the playoffs. Love will fall asleep in the 4th quarter and not give any effort on defense. ZBo is too slow to even defend. Dirk doesn't defend. I'll you one thing....the only PF's that I've listed that I've seen be the alpha dog of their team come playoff time and have some success is Zbo and Dirk. I would at least like to see Blake, Love or LMA do that before crowning a TRUE #1. As of now, I think LMA, Blake and Love are pretty much dead even.
