We should probably be a little nicer to new people who actually want to talk hoops.
Shocking that the resident contrarian would take this guy's side.

Seriously, his point changed several different times. Go back and read. His original point was that the Mavs would miss Josh the most if he went down with injury. He then backtracked from that, and came up with a slightly better argument.

It doesn't matter if his point was worth discussion or not. He was so condescending, throwing around his supposed basketball career as proof that he had insider knowledge, no one was going to listen to him, and rightfully so.
