    its not bullshit, like i said, human polls are not relevant. you dont have a counterpoint. dont worry about polls. those are just the votes of people that dont matter.

    you are insincere and sarcastic like this to avoid making actual defensible points. the fact is the polls are irrelevant. they dont determine anything.

    for sure.

    wade says shareef is working and earning playing time. i think/hope going forward he will play more.

    it is useless. its about as valuable as if your cat made up rankings. it doesnt factor into seedings. and the league tournament is purely rankings based.

    you claim the top 25 is not useless. so i ask directly for what it is useful. but you have no answer. so why do you still make stupid points after i explain things to you? have you no capacity to learn?

    you do understand the difference between polls and rankings? rankings mean something and polls do not. polls are just some questions asked to people. its not based on data, its opinion.

    which polls do you stupidly think matter? AP? coaches? a random group of andalusian mountain goats? do you go around asking people which team is good?

    its wins and losses that matter, and the metrics those games create. offensive and defensive efficiency, points allowed per possession, strength of schedule etc.

    this is your way of saying you are afraid to make rational evidence based arguments. you want to be the strategy jedi that sees how wade is a bad coach and the idiot reporters that do the polls think whatever. it doesnt matter what those idiot reporters think. the game is on the court. the data should come from the court, not the opinions of the stupid faggots that write about how wade is a cheater.

    You're the one ignoring the reality of this basketball team. This is not a good team and if you think it is, then you clearly need to get your eyes checked. You celebrate wins over A&M and MSU like they won the NCAA tournament. Screw your metrics because it makes no sense and it's something you hide behind because you don't understand basketball. You're the average Joe blow basketball fan that thinks they know everything, but knows nothing other than the surface crap. This team has as much talent as just about anyone in the country, but they're undisciplined, play street ball and that's due to a bad HC. Most of LSU's wins came early in the season when they played a bunch of tomato cans. As long as WW is head coach, LSU will always have up and down seasons. They will win some games simply because they have more talent or are red hot that night, but they will never win consistently over an entire season because that takes coaching and WW doesn't understand the Xs and Os of the game. The reality is by the time this season ends WW will have lost more than 50 games in 5 years (he's at 49 currently), won 1 conference championship, led them to one NCAA tournament, taken a $250, 000 cut in pay because he's an idiot and he currently has LSU under NCAA investigation. Clearly, we define success in different ways! I know you will respond with some stupid metrics comment, but if that's what makes you happy, you go for it!

    I choose not to talk to you, not because I can’t make arguments but because you call all of my thoughts stupid. I don’t enjoy that shit.

    if you learn from your errors instead of doubling down you wont feel stupid.

    this isnt true.
    yes, i know, you haters want to think of yourselves as jedi that see the deep intricacies

    you cannot quantify. yunno what you can quantify? the scoreboard.

    but you do. you are like X's and O's obi wan. you are at one with the force of the strategy. you see it like no one else. even when the team wins, you are so smart you see the real game was a failure. even when the team wins, its because the team was more talented, which somehow you think is not as good as being shitty and losing like ole miss does.

    having lots of losses is not a bad stat. its wins vs losses, bud. yunno who leads the majors in career pitching losses? cy young. nolan ryan has more losses in the last 70 years than anyone. losses by themselves is not a useful stat. coaches/players that makes the postseason, for example, have more losses. look at winning percentage, not losses. try to have an adult-level understanding of the world.

    i dont think wins is a very stupid metric. its the whole reason to play. will wade wins. dont hate the scoreboard.

    again, you say this to be intentionally misleading. he has made the tournament every single year after his first. once the tournament was cancelled. thats not his fault. he will make is this year as well, and next. will wade makes the tournament.

    Well, if losses aren't a bad stat then no wonder you love WW. From your perspective, this team has been on fire having lost six of its last nine games! When WW ends the season with 50-plus losses over five years, you better rent out the Pete Maravich Center and throw a big party for WW accomplishing just a monumental feat in just five years!
