NBA Young Gunz hypocrisy

[LBF]

The term "young gun" has been applied to any young player who makes shots as long as I can remember. They also use the term gunslinger for any volume shooter. Commentators are pretty lazy with catch phrases and a lot of them are fairly inappropriate ("facial"? really?).

That along with penetrate or penetration.

I'm honestly just waiting for two players to attack the rim on back to back plays. So, some doorknob like JVG will go "and you see the double penetration on both ends."

It had more to do with the washington incident involving Arenas and Crittenten the same year. The Raptors/NBA, obviously wanted nothing to do with what was going on in the wizards locker room and decided to change the name.

Gil and Crittenton were just petitioning for washington to be named "bullets" again.

lol uh huh

I wonder if Gay Big V and friends might catch on?

we're talking about the Young Gunz/Onez, which was DD, Weems and Amir...

no really?

how bout Gay, Derozan and Bargnani/Valanciunas. I'd say they'd give the OKC trio a run for their money

did you just say derozan is a mediocre player?

He's certainly not at the level with any of the three OKC players. But I was comparing trios. And taking an early morning pre-coffee stab at sarcasm. lol

Uh, ohhhhh...David Robinson called Durant, Westbrook and Harden "Young Gunz" on his twitter after the game, last night. How dare him call them that, right guys? Lmao

DeRozan, Weems and Amir could matchup against Durant, Westbrook and Harden any day of the week!!!! Unless we're talking basketball.

Ouch. Thats harsh.

I guess they shouldnt be doing pre-game special handshakes or fist pumps when they make incredible shots until they prove something.

Lol....+1

Call me old school, but the Glove, the Admiral, and the Mailman all deserved their nicknames. Sonny Weems? Not so much...

lol

I know Amir definitely shouldn't be doing a dice roll after making a three!

Whether it's "Gunz" or "Onez", mediocre players don't deserve nicknames.
