  1. Pretty sure you can find a similar list for just about any draft. Just looking at the 20th pick and later starting 10 years before you: 2008 had Ryan Anderson (21), Serge Ibaka (24), Batum (25), George Hill (26), Chalmers (34), Deandre Jordan (35), Dragic (45) 2009 had Darren Collison (21), Taj Gibson (26), Patrick Beverley (42), Danny Green (46), Patty Mills (55) and a handful of longtime role players 2010 is dogshit. Hassan Whiteside (33), Landry Fields (39), Lance Stephenson (40)? 2011 had Faried (22), Reggie Jackson (24), Jimmy Butler (30), Bojan Bogdanovic (31), Chandler Parsons (38), Isaiah Thomas (60) 2012 had Evan Fournier (20), Jae Crowder (34), Draymond Green (35), Kris Middleton (39), Will Barton (40) I'll stop there but I'm not seeing a massive increase in valuable players coming later in the draft.
  2. If Hunter comes back and we get Weaver and Rodman, this team is looking pretty good. But do we really have minutes for them all to come here? Abmas averaged 36 minutes last year, Weaver 30, Hunter 30, and Sellers 30. Minutes get tight there even if we ran a 3 guard lineup all the time.
  3. How do people still exist who think Harden doesn't love basketball?
  4. You keep saying this but your definition of "reacting appropriately" appears to be different than just about everyone else's.
  5. Pretty easy concept that if you fuck around with enough people, eventually you'll find out. Don't fuck with other people and you don't have anything to worry about.
  6. Easy, their "pranks" are almost all making fun of themselves/each other rather than fucking with other people.
  7. Have you seen a video of the "prank"? I'm not seeing one anywhere. Can't really comment on it being justified or not without knowing what actually happened.
  8. Does anything about this report suggest that this company had unrestricted access? Seems like they just scraped everything that was public. This seems way more "people don't understand privacy" more than "Facebook bad".

    I was about to say that I feel like he's been our best player so far but then my stream got there... damn
  10. goatsaag replied to ztejas's topic in Futbol
    Lots of poor touches from all of our attacking players so far.
  11. The refs did their job and made what looked like it might turn into a Texas blowout into a close game. But doesn't look like the shit calls are stopping here

    I don't think Berhalter should have been hired for a 2nd cycle. He's not a bad coach and he didn't do a bad job with the US. He did perfectly fine and is as good a coach as we've ever had. When he was hired, he had the exact type of resume that we should expect for the USMNT coach. And then he got essentially the expected results along the way (slightly overperforming winning every regional cup, slightly underperforming in qualifying). But getting a 2nd cycle should require more than that so I agree that it's time to move on. Any time someone talks about how tactically inflexible we were, I really have to question if they even watch the games or if they are just parroting click bait youtube accounts that have been cheering for Berhalter to fail since he was hired. We've tried a bunch of different things tactically and the World Cup showed us varying plans each game. The one part where Berhalter really seemed to lack was with in game adjustments.

    I get that you hate Berhalter and want to pretend he's the worst coach ever, but you think we got dominated by the Netherlands but that we played neck and neck with Belgium? Come on. Without Howard playing the game of his life, we'd have seen something like a 7-0 score line for Belgium. They had 26 shots on target! I also love the Netherlands game being used against Berhalter when we legitimately played a pretty even game with them, we just didn't put away the chances we got. Is the only thing that matters goals scored? Giving up one goal in the group stage counts for something, right?

    Just keep reading the quotes and it explains it? They were worried about his fitness level. They were also worried about him just walking around not trying at all. It's really not hard to imagine a scenario where both of those are true. There's also nothing mentioning that Gio was expected to go all out in training. The quotes were “walk[ed] around, and mope[d] around the whole time.”, "seemed ticked off”, "did not appear to be trying at all”, and “other guys were busting their tails doing the sprints” while “Gio didn’t do anything.”
  15. If you look at what he's doing at Twitter, seems pretty reasonable that the best thing for Tesla is for him to be as far away as possible.
  16. Gandalf didn't actually say that he'd never gone East in the past. He says "to the East I go not". Maybe they never quite make it "East". Maybe he goes East and we find out why he doesn't go there anymore.
  17. goatsaag replied to ztejas's topic in Futbol
    Is there any evidence that he'd pick us? Pefok is probably the most similar to this situation. He wanted to play for France and settled for us once he got old enough that it seemed like it wasn't going to happen. Just based on all of the other dual national stuff we've done under Berhalter, I'd be shocked if we hadn't reached out.
  18. goatsaag replied to ztejas's topic in Futbol
    Because he has to actually say yes to playing for us? Seems very likely that his current priority is playing for England. If that doesn't happen fast enough we might have a shot.

    It's a January camp for a couple of friendlies where we don't even have a real coach. Having a vet at each spot to help new guys acclimate to the environment is perfect. There should be zero complaints about this. Soccer fans also get way too excited about people "aging out". Dude turning 28 or 30 doesn't mean he's suddenly trash. It's very unlikely that any of our late 20s to early 30s (in four years) players are going to age out of the pool for the next world cup. They just likely won't be better than the younger talent that's coming up.
  20. The biggest tipoff that it's a lie is when he talks about actually paying attention during corporate IT security awareness training.

    Is this a problem unique to the US? Our players can't respect an MLS coach, but every other nation can respect a coach that likely came from their national league and has zero experience coaching players of their level? Scaloni had no head coaching experience before taking over Argentina. Tite only coached in Brazil. If you look around at all of the World Cup teams, most of them have coaches that you would likely not consider "a real manager". Guys like van Gaal, Deschamps, and Luis Enrique who have experience at multiple big clubs is not the norm because a national team coaching gig just isn't the goal for a soccer coach.

    Gio himself didn't do anything. If they already worked through all his bullshit in camp and are fine with it, it's pretty likely he can work through this. Claudio is going to have some problems though.

    Dike was called in to friendlies and the 2021 gold cup when he was healthy. He hurt his shoulder during that gold cup. He could have been brought back in to the end of 2021 qualifiers after having not played that many MLS games since coming back from injury but it's not like he was core to the team at that point. Then he missed basically all of 2022. The whole "why wasn't this guy called in, he would have saved us!" that has happened in a lot of places after any player who wasn't on the roster scores a club goal (even in a friendly) is fucking stupid. And it's even dumber when the player wouldn't have even been available. It's like people don't actually watch the team or follow the players and just come here to bitch about things.
  24. goatsaag replied to ztejas's topic in Futbol
    There was literally not a time when Dike was playing in 2022 to be called in. He played 80 minutes over two games in January, got hurt, didn't play again until he got 12 minutes in July, got hurt, played half of a u21 game in November and then one single minute in the championship before the World Cup. Please complain about him not getting called in.

    Have to be healthy to make the roster and he wasn't healthy so...
