Does anybody have a sense of humor anymore?

When things are funny.
Yeah but there is no way that I would have answered that way to a player that was clearly trying to physically intimidate me. Judging what I know of you I doubt you would have either. I am too competitive and answering "no, sorry" to someone would be seen as backing down. That fact the Cousins got himself thrown out was just a bonus for the Bucks.

He is on my ignore list. I can't discuss things with people who have so little sense of logic. It's like noise in the middle of a nice concert. This discussion is great and then wham! comes the distraction.

We could take care of the problem by not rising to the bait. Why people discuss anything with him is beyond me.

you know, if someone tried to chop my legs like that (which could potentially cause a very serious injury), and then when i confront them they said "what if it was on purpose, what are you going to do about it", i would have done ALOT worse to Mr. Dunleavy then a just light elbow to the back of the head.

Excuse me??? I resent you taking my post (which was quite moderate IMO) and using it to address all the ignorant Kings fans that you disagree with! "You have no idea what you are watching" - really? So now this thread has devolved into the worst of Kings discussions. Everyone showing their worst sides, exaggerating their own arguments and those of the people they disagree with. It's gotten ugly. I kept reading, hoping it would take a turn for the better. But it all started with your immature post where you felt it necessary to ridicule all Kings fans that don't agree with your assessment of DMC. Think about it.

I don't disagree with that either.
Now see, somewhere in the real world not inhabited by trolls and Napears, virtually everything that happened throughout the incident made some kind of sense. Dunleavy may have accidentally done more than he intended. Cousins, having no way to know that, took umbrage as a guy chopped his knees and sent him to the ground. Being Cousins, he doesn't cool down (the one stupid person here is the coach who left him in). Cousins challenges Dunleavy. But its not a simple question, its a challenge., So Dunelavy tells him "**** you! What if it was." Now Cousins, having had his knees chopped and having been told **** you by the chopper, decides on a little retriubution.
Not one thing in my little story there is unlikely, and not one thing in that little story is indicative of anybody being particularly out of control. Two competitive players get into an altercation. It happens 20 years ago to Mailman, he would have sent Dunleavy flying with an elbow too. The difference is that Cousins is a young hothead, and so he's pissed and does it all at once, not thinking of anything but. Mailman would have waited a bit. Sometime in the early 4th maybe on the break. This tit for tat stuff happens in competitive sports. Only because its Cousins and he has not yet learned patience and acceptability does it become a story, let alone another opportunity for a bunch of ninnies to squeal about Cousins cancerous nature.

That's what he does with just about every post and he has a lot of minions here that take his words as though he is God. When you take the minority side on this site you get personally attacked and ridiculed.

We're coming to a crossroads now LWP. I told you to scram, you are still here. What is that 2600 post investment in this site worth to you?

Dude, I've taken the minority side here many, many times. Never felt attacked or ridiculed. I guess it's just a matter of perspective and giving/taking respect. Old concepts but fresh impact.
I am not even a Kings fan. I say things all the time that are unpopular. I don't think Cousins is as talented as many, many others on this forum. I seem to get along just fine.
It isn't your opinion that is the problem. It is your expression of that opinion that is irritating as hell.

FWIW, I am not defenidng LWP here because I think he is trolling, but at the same time it really doesn't bother me. I have had posts deleted numerous times that there was nothing wrong with that a moderator didn't like. Nothing degrading, no swear words, etc.
That being said, he is getting fair warning and is still going.

Sorry, but you box someone out from in front of them and by standing tall so they don't go over your back. Dunleavy came from the side (slightly behind) and ducked down low running into the side of DMC's knee. That is a dangerous play any way you look at it. And if Dunleavy has been around basketball his whole life (being a coaches son) and should have known better. But Dunleavy has a history of dirty play so I am not surprised by his actions. He has done that most of his career.

Grant and Jerry would disagree with your assessment of Dunleavy. They went on and on about how he was a clean player and it was all Cousins' fault. Goodie, something else to rant about. Seriously, I think Cousins' perception is that no one has his back. Perhaps no one does.
I think your story is how it really went down. Also, The Mailman was clean. He never played dirty
Bricklayer
Don't Make Me Use The Bat
Being a clean player (which btw Dunleavy never has truly been) doesn't preclude having started the whole incident. If tommorow Jimmer dives in front of Noah trying to block him out and caves his knee in the process, Noah is NOT going to be happy about it. If Noah hops up and says did you do that on purpose!? And Jimmer sticks out his chin and says "what if I did!", Noah is going to be even not happier. Still won't make Jimmer a dirty player. But it will certainly put him at the center of an incident anyway.

All I know is that I watched a lot of Warrior games back when Dunleavy played for them, and both Dunleavy and Troy Murphy were notorious for taking cheap shots IMO. They Both are smart players that understand that they are not the most important players on their team. So if they can help get under the skin of the other team's star, and get him to take himself out of the game (or force the refs to), then they help their team in the long run. That is exactally how it worked out in this game.

Pretty much, this thread took a turn for the worse. It's cool to have your own opinion and defend it, but once you start attacking people, that's when you need to just back off and calm down. We're all here in support of the Kings, or in Npalim's case, Jimmer, but he's up front with it, which I can respect that lol.

I don't think I'm banned yet. I think we should set up a post and we can have a vote on whether I should be banned. Sounds kinda fun!
Maybe because we've ben burdened with the Maloofs as owners, a GM that is sleeping on the job right now, a series of junior high coaches, and a team that doesn't mesh? Maybe some solid, veteran leadership that isn't just Cisco leading from a few minutes off the bench at a time?
Ring any bells?
