Darius Kinnard Garland

[Man Called X]

I quoted you and directly responded to what you said. I literally have no idea what you are talking about. I don't care how you feel though at all, as you are constantly angry about some perceived slight. That is your baggage, has nothing to do with me.

I don't need you to like Garland, his numbers are good indicators and that was all I was trying to communicate.

And I tagged the person that comment was for.

But your initial response to me was questioning if Collin's laziness is throwing me?

I'm not even sure what the fuck that was supposed to mean. Do you pick random words to throw into posts to make them sound like gibberish or is that just unintentional?

The whole point was that players talking about other players is not empirical evidence but the reading comprehension skills are so fucking lacking on RCF, that turns into "XXX players agrees with me LOLOL"

Now back to more knob slobbing.

I realize his numbers looked better last year, but the way he plays doesn't pass the eye test for me. I don't think he has the mentality to be aggressive. I never get any sense of urgency watching him play. We were still one of the slowest teams in the league, and it wasn't all due to Andre Drummond.

I don't think the kid has it in him to be a star. I think his ceiling is a super skilled backup PG that plays entirely too slow. He'll be a stabilizing guard that you eventually bring in to slow a game down and keep an offense running when your star is sitting.

But the little backhanded insults using my words without just quoting me? That's the kind of lame childish shit this forum is so great at. @pr26

Didn’t even remember it was you who said it and was frankly thinking of other posters when I posted. I’d apologize but I know you’re not big on feelings? My bad that pissed you off but I can assure you I am a grown man for better or worse. Pm me next time. Cheers.

Yeah it is hard to tell that you are reacting to one poster when you quote somebody else .

"Collin Sexton has figured it out! I love watching guys come into their own. Keep an eye on him everyone!"

This all Dwayne Wade said. What is wrong about what he said? He's gone from a 26 per 100 poss scorer to 34 which puts him in the top 20 of NBA scorers.

Lebron is full of shit, but Wade likes Collin and went out of his way to give him his jersey on his retirement tour instead of his former teammate Cedi who wanted it really bad. Lol

This is fucking hilarious. You guys always find your new Kyrie/Dion.

SexLand didn’t have guys good enough to be first, second or third options in the front court last season (arguably the top option was Drummond - yecch). We need to see improvement from Okoro, and Mobley definitely is an offensive threat. That would make it easier to get Allen his points.

 

[roozy]

I'm old enough to remember Dwayne Wade talking up Colin Sexton last year. I also remember Cedi being talked up by LeBron and Durant after a workout.

But by all means, let's continue slobbing knobs over a comment Steph Curry made.

But you said just a couple of pages ago that nobody outside of Cavs or Cavs fans cares or thinks Garlands good? So which is it?

Up until Curry's comment, the only hype for Garland was from Cavs brass and Klutch players. Something happening after the fact doesn't change what was true at the time. Just means that the statement is no longer true. Now if you could point out where I said no one outside of the Cavs cares about Garland, I'd be much happier to continue this conversation. But since you're just making shit up because reading comprehension is hard, I'd suggest fucking off.

 

[ChicagoCavFan]

You guys just gotta accept a wait and see approach. Last season was not normal. Training camp was not normal. We were one of the top teams in the league in terms of injuries, so consistency lacked. There were dynamics behind the scenes with some of the guys - Drummond, Love, KPJ, etc - how is a young kid supposed to flash when there is turmoil like that? Way too fast to conclude anything on the kid yet.

What you said was never true that's the funny part, Garland gets more praise from outside media then Sexton ever got.

So reading is too hard, fucking off is too hard, is there anything you can do?

Just put me on ignore, you cry way too much. Can't even converse like an adult.

I mean opposing teams broadcasters were hyping both Garland and Sexton last year because they were our best players all year

NBA Executives Believe Darius Garland Is The Top Breakout Candidate For The 2021-22 Season

Darius Garland was the No. 5 overall pick in 2019, and he is currently a very solid player who just happens to be on a bad team. Over the course of the 2020-21 season, Garland averaged 17.4 PPG and 6.1 APG, while shooting 45.1% from the field and 39.5% from beyond the arc.

NBA execs who aren't in Klutch's clutches voted Garland the guy most to break out. There are plenty of people who thing the team sucks bad, but people who have actually watched them play like both Sexton and Garland. Maybe they aren't considered superstar prospects, but people like them.

Collin and Garland gave Drummond the ball way too many times when they shouldn't last season...

I would watch the opposing team's broadcast,sometimes. They always gave Garland and Collin mad love. They would say the both of them need pieces around them..

Yeah I mean that is quite the difference from what people complain about with national media talking heads. Well, we know the opposing announcers actually watch the games.

You get a ton of "Wow this Sexton kid is one of the fastest guys in the league. He sure can score it, can't he?" "Garland's having a good year 17 and 6. Easy to see why the Cavs are high on this guy."

Used to be more surprise that they were playing well, but it hasn't been like that basically since the Brooklyn game.

To your other point, yeah they both gave it to Drummond, but they have also been guilty of getting to say Kevin with no advantage. He is just on the high block. Go to work big fella. That is something you do with Shaq and Boobie Gibson off the bench. It should not be 15 plays a game. Gotta see more creativity with the offense.

Hope Darius is watching Chris Paul and Chandler/Griffin.
