You are a riot. Seriously. Much of the non-sense you type comes out of left field.
Please, enlighten me how anything you are saying about me is true. The only time I recall referencing any of the "talking heads" was the Magic reference I just cited. You brought up Jerry Reynolds another time, in a feable attempt disparage my take on shot blocking. And like you just said, I don't care whether his take agreed with mine or not. I never quoted or cited him as a reference or an influence regarding my opinion. You just assumed that's where it came from and dropped his name. Regardless, I correctly retorted that he has worlds more credibility than you or I will ever have, right or wrong.
So who else have I cited that deserves this "worship hero" crap your spewing? Don't just say it. Back it up. Burden of proof is upon you.
Lastly, you are far from the only person here with decades of experience watching games. I've got as much or more experience than you, yet I'm not at all touting myself as more knowledgable than those actually affiliated with the game. While nobody does their job perfectly, there is a good reason they do what they do and why we don't. Your problem is, you not only think you know more than everyone on this site but also the professionals that make a living doing it. I hate to break it to you, but you don't. And to clarify, I'm not talking about beat writers or the general press. I'm referring to players, former players, and those actually drawing a front office check.
So pound your chest and have all the confidence in your analytical abilities that you want. It's fools gold. It in no way makes your opinions superior to the other knowledgable members of this site.
We agree on one thing though. None of this banter changes what happens on that court. The only thing that differs is the interpretation of those happenings.
