UPDATE: With Nash agreement, Sessions is off the board

Good try though!

Since when does an NBA starting PG not matter?

And how would he have mattered more playing backup to Nash?


Nice try? No. Just pointing out you're kind of a homer like I previously stated.

Uh, when you are starting for, literally, the worst team in the league you do not matter. Period. Especially since he is a below average starter to begin with.

Yes he would have mattered playing behind Nash. He would have actually been playing for something. HIs presence on the basketball court would have actually mattered in the grand scheme of things. Same if he backed up Westbrook in OKC. Or Paul on the Clippers. Or ****, even George Hill in Indiana. But he's not going to matter in Charlotte. Nobody is going to give a shit about Ramon Sessions.

So yeah. Good try. I'm still waiting for a real example of my homerisms, by the way.

This is a good example. All the sudden he's a below average starter and no one cares about him. But playing 15 minutes a night backing up Nash and all the sudden everyone would care about him? No.

Other examples are just when you talk about the Lakers in general around the forum. Kobe in general.

That's the impression you've left. If you don't agree that's fine, but it doesn't change that that's the impression you're leaving.

He's always been a below average starter. But he was still an upgrade over what we had, and he was playing for the most decorated franchise in the league, so yeah, he mattered. Backing up a future HOFer would not have made him matter less. He would have still been in the limelight. There is not limelight on the Bobcats.

Show me the last outlandish post I made about the Lakers and Kobe specifically. I haven't said that the Lakers were the favorites all year, and I stand by my evaluation of Kobe. He's the best shooting guard in the world and a top ten player ever. Nothing more, nothing less. Feel free to try and debate me.

You're talking about me leaving impressions without citing specific examples of me coming off as a homer. I'd stop while I was behind if I were you.

Yea. Playing tough guy. That will work well for you.

I've stated the impression you give off. I'm not searching posts to help explain to you the impression you give. Read your own posts while you write them if you'd like.

I don't want to derail this thread. If you want to discuss it in another thread have at it.

So you're admitting I'm right? Cool.

What is the consensus about Nash/Pau? Will they be able to flourish? Will Steve's playmaking ability help find Gasol in the spots where he's more effective? Will Pau become more consistently effective now that he's got a real threat from deep?

[R-Star]

Pathetic. And if you don't want a reply post like that in the future, don't try to bait with some amateur hour child move.

You get into way too many arguments on the Internet.

Glad Sessions can get paid. He should strive to be that team's best player next year.

He's honestly got a shot at it which is kind of sad.

Him and MKG make a decent young back court though. Will be interesting to watch.

He turns 27 next season. He's not that young.

Meh. He's not old either but yea, I guess 27 doesn't really qualify as young at all when it comes to basketball.

I thought he was a couple years younger for some reason.

I thought he was too before this season. I feel like it was yesterday that he had that 20+ assist game in Milwaukee as a rookie (sophomore?)

Darius Morris is trash. That is all.

I always seem to think point guards around his age are younger than they really are. Not sure why.
