Adelaide 36ers v Townsville Crocs 16 Jan 2016

No, you said it in this game after Ebi had been on court for only 4 minutes for a +/- of -2 (which means absolutely nothing). It was yet another unnecessary snipe apparently intended to support your crusade against Ebi and the club.

Then the Sixers won the game, with Ebi hitting two crucial 3s which broke the back of Townsville's resistance.

I am not saying Ebi had a great game or was the difference. Nobody is disagreeing with your principle point about his (poor) performance. Whether you are trying deliberately to misunderstand the point that is actually being made, or whether you truly just don't understand is what is unclear.

Ah, I get it, you would have preferred Scott Christopherson, is that what you mean?

Ebi has unfortunately underperformed, but he is far from the worst import we have ever had. If he was shooting 45% from the field and 37% from the 3 I think he would have achieved all reasonable expectations.

38% and 32% doesn't cut it for what else he is bringing, but your continued hyperbole about him is over the top. It seems to be a manic fixation with you.

You would have taken Conklin, shooting at 25%, and getting suspended for ill-discipline, and getting sacked for underperforming and generally disrupting team chemistry, and whose team has generally played better in his absence (and certainly with more heart), over Ere who is shooting at 38% in a team winning more than they are losing?

You could not mount a better argument about your lack of perspective over this issue.

No doubt Ere has, on any view, underperformed. That said, your campaign against him has grown very wearisome and derails every single thread about the Sixers.

We get it, you don't like this signing. You really have no idea how much $$ Ere is on, what the club's expectations of him are, or what the justifications are for not replacing him mid-season with a $150,000+ replacement import. It might just be time that you get over it.

Maybe it was smoke and mirrors Ere was our #1 import.

In all honesty I didn't like the signing of Ere from the start, but following his signing he, along with joey and the rest of the team, he has my unreserved support.

"Yeah they probs wont make ther finals. So whats the point. He is shite for an import. Bradteke was a Aussie so a great addition veteran wise"

Kobe24 they are more likely to make the finals than you are making a lucid comment about the team or the coach.

You have never offered any evidence of any basketball experience that adds credence to your argument. The old line that this is a forum to air your views almost without challenge, because everyone has right to an opinion, also has become tiresome.

I had decided not to give your argument any oxygen by not commenting on your infantile posts,so I suppose you have sucked me in, but not anymore

Kobe, it is annoying because it is predictable, unoriginal and highly highly repetitive.

Was it you who swore the Sixers would not make the finals unless they replaced Ebi? Certainly you have bagged Wright at every turn for his choices. Not there by any measure yet, but at 11-9, these Sixers have done pretty well. Wright yet again, as he repeatedly has done, putting together a competitive team that will give it a shake working with the pieces he has got to play with.

The only thing more pathetic than Ere as an import is the continued harping by Sixers "supporters" Kobe24 and Hendo888.

win is a win

Just keep feeding Randle at one end and hacking Henry at the other.

At a quick glance, Townsville's 64 in the first half would have been enough to win 9 games this season (or 6 once you consider that 3 of those sub-64 full time scores were by the Crocs)

Who cares about defence when you're on track for 50+ in a half :p

You may be right

Can't see the 6ers having too many dramas getting this one.
