    So if you swing your arms in an outward motion it is a swingthrough... but if you pull your arms inward it's cheating?

    Maybe one day you can rank the difference between traveling, swingthroughs, kickouts, arm pulling so we can all be properly educated on the order of magnitudes.

    Have Kobe swing his arms at your face vs. James pulling your arm and I think you will find them both equally annoying.

    Yes you got me... I love to spend hours on a quietly traffic Lakers board instead of Clutchfans in the hopes that I might be able to fool a dozen Lakers fans and hoodwink them into thinking I'm a true Lakers fan when I secretly worship Harden by saying he's less skilled than Kobe but deserves more credit than he gets.

    Wow... with that kind of intuition... no wonder you own me and my theories.

    Harden can definitely score more easily knowing that defenders aren't allowed to even breathe on him lol

    Why does that bother you so much? I like this site, but it has low traffic. I hope it gets busier. I'm doing my best to keep the conversation going by engaging with anyone who addresses me when I have the time.

    My answer was in direct response to the absurd notion that I would waste my time here as a ninja Rockets fan.

    From the greatest American coach/manager in American history. I don't follow euro league soccer or badminton or cricket so, yah, those aren't real sports anyways.

    Let's see if this finally sinks in and ends this stats BS.......I'll wait.....

    People make it clear that they don't like it, yet you continue to do it. It doesn't matter why it bothers someone, if you continue to do that then don't be surprised when people get annoyed. These subtle jabs haven't been so subtle. The fact that it's been brought up, yet you either don't listen or don't care is what's really annoying. It's like crashing a party and then whining there aren't enough people there. Everyone is welcome to this party, just don't go around s******* on the party.

    This is a fair point. I don't think anything is wrong about being a smaller site. But if you all find it an insult, I'll try to avoid saying it unless it specifically needs to be said.

    The comment doesn't bother me, but this is the LeBron thread.

    If you want to discus Harden vs Kobe it's fine, but maybe you could start you're own thread about it.

    Just be ready for the flood of booooos on a Lakers forum for that topic :Noddingyes::Laugh:

    This is the best Laker site anywhere. Low traffic here is perfect. Too many people breed more garbage. That's what happened on the other Lakers forum and destroyed a great forum.

    Yes. But you're off topic, what do you feel about Kobe vs. Harden?

    Damn. These stats explain a lot. I guess we know why Harden is so hard to beat in the playoffs and why he has all those rings.


    Look, man. You claim you are being hazed or receiving harsh treatment or whatever. But you come on Lakersball (which would insinuate a Laker fandom) and try to use stats to compare James "Flopper Extraordinare" Harden to Kobe "Five-time champion" Bryant and expect everyone to just nod their head in agreement and accept your points with zero counter argument? Harden is talented, and his stats are insane, but despite having Chris Paul next to him and some other great pieces with him (and I include the refs as important pieces), he has never made it to the Finals, let alone won a championship.
