Can't wait to argue with you guys all offseason.

Everyone here gave great advice, the only thing I'll add is to NOT skip legs even with your running. Adding muscle to your legs is going to up your metabolism and leg work outs absolutely kill calories too, not to mention the core strength development from some exercises. Do some body weight squats, have someone who knows what they're doing show you how to deadlift(very light weight at first) and it'll really help get you to where you want to be.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 13, 2017 -> 12:26 PM) At the same time, I feel like I can't be critical of anything the guy does because then it means I'm saying he's a terrible player. I've mentioned a few things over the past week that have been widely voiced by various commentators almost in unison, and posters here have responded as if I'm the only one being critical of him. To be frank, he's an all-time great, and all-time greats are subject to additional criticism at times...that comes with the territory. Of course he can and should be criticized but as I said I think these last few games you guys are getting at him for very bizarre reasons imo. The stat padding people got on him for being too passive in the 4th in game 3 and now he's just being aggressive to stat pad. He had 14 in the 4th last night so he already had 27 through the first 3, dude was trying to do everything in his power to keep up when his team was just overmatched.

I'm pretty sure there isn't a person out there right now who thinks LeBron is the goat at the moment. He's a distant two to me right now. I defend the guy now a days because people find the most ridiculous ways to try and discredit him. Bulls fans in particular are so defensive of the Bulls and Jordan's legacy for some reason that they go out of their way to try and knock LeBron(or this Warriors team) down.

If anything I at least love the philosophy so far.

Lot of different answers so I'll take that as varying opinions. Thanks guys!

Just got home from playing basketball, what's the overall opinion on the Jake pick?

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 12, 2017 -> 01:18 PM) I did watch Bucks vs Barretta/Romero and I'm sorry, but the Bucks are so damn annoying to watch. Im not talking characters either. They have fun moves but I just can't take them seriously. Go ahead and let me have it. There's plenty of people in your camp. Personally, they're my favorite thing going in pro wrestling.

I'm not going to sit here and argue with anyone, all I'll say is I don't want this guy playing for my favorite team.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jun 11, 2017 -> 01:03 PM) Omega vs Okada might be the best match ever and in not sure if I'm just being an IWC smark or not. Seriously. If you have an hour to kill, watch it. WWE needs Omega. Haven't watched it yet but I saw plenty of people say it was better than their first. I LOVED the first but still thought it was overrated as I didn't think it was the best match of all time(not the best match I saw this year). And yes, it's an hour long, Brian.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Jun 9, 2017 -> 11:06 PM) Giving up 137 points in a finals game though? I'll stick to my "best team ever my ass" comment. Could only imagine if GSW scored 78 in a finals game.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Jun 9, 2017 -> 10:57 PM) The 96 Bulls won 72 games. They did. And if GS wins on Monday they will have the best playoff record in the history of the NBA which counts for something as well. I'm not even making an argument about who is better at this point but "best team ever my ass" is just a reaction off one bad game just like the Bulls had in those playoffs.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Jun 9, 2017 -> 10:39 PM) Best team ever my ass. Thank God I hedged. The 96 Bulls lost game 4 of the finals by 21.

Every f***in play has some sort of drama going on. This is something. Also, good lord Cleveland.

Only 63 pitches through 6 for Adams right now. That'll work.

Maybe if Collins becomes fathom's new whipping boy like Giolito was then he'll break out.

Ya McCain can't be playing with a full deck right now. That was cringe worthy.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Jun 8, 2017 -> 12:40 AM) How many points did lebron score in the fourth? 7.

I'm just going to answer you both at once here and leave it at that. Yes shack, I watched the game, I wouldn't be commenting if I didn't. I'm not sure what the +- stat is supposed to mean. He was the highest of a whole 3 guys(and Kyrie isn't part of that) who had a positive +- for the Cavs. Durant had the absurd +- of 0 in the game, it's just a flawed stat. As for the play itself, LeBron did make a move to drive to the hoop, he ended up going left and got caught by the help. If he drives right, maybe he gets an easy 2, maybe Dray is such a good defender he forces a tough shot, maybe Klay drops down and cuts him off and maybe Durant who is already sliding over when LeBron starts to drive meets him at the rim. We have no idea. What we do know is that Korver is insane from that left corner and LeBron thought it was the best play at the time. He missed, maybe Jordan's legacy isn't the same if Paxson and/or Kerr missed in those finals. Fortunately for us Bulls fans, they did not.

Korver almost never misses that shot, it was the right play per usual by LeBron. Can't believe we're still doing the LeBron is too passive routine in 2017.

Incredible. Also nice to finally get a fun game.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 10:26 PM) Dunning threw at Erceg a couple weeks ago after he hit a three run homer. Dunning served a suspension. Tonight, the same guy hit another 3-run hr. Ahh, I somehow missed that. Thanks!

Quite the interesting statline for Dane today. Didn't see the game, what's the deal with him throwing at some one?

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 12:54 PM) He was doing fine until he blew up in the 6th inning. 5 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 5 K through 5. 1/3 IP, 0 H, 3 ER, 3 BB in the 6th inning alone. He walked 3 straight to load the bases, was pulled, and Leyer ended up allowing all 3 inherited runners to score. Right but he struggled in the first 2 innings as well. He's allowed to have a non perfect start, like I said, just not the prettiest game he's ever pitched.
