And do you even have any kind of statistic on this? Or is it some nonsense correlation "We ran ball better, Collins left early, he must be the problem!"

We were running the ball quite well when Collins was in as well. But I mean, I'll certainly accept some stats from you.
Do you?

said this on another thread. He is not a starting guard. That makes RT or backup Guard his next home. Leary was better at creating space. You will also have hungry Leary who is on contract year.

While I don't agree with the poster...since when does a poster needs stats to justify his opinion? It's a message board and people are sharing their observations or opinions. Imagine how annoying it would be if people started asking posters for stats to back up everything they feel....

They don't NEED to provide anything, I asked a simple question. When was it that someone wasn't allowed to ask a question on a message board? This isn't someone stating "Hey, Leary is a cool bro" - he is saying, as a fact, Leary is better. This is something that can be observed in game, so if he has something, I asked him to provide it. Maybe I'll agree?

No stats needed. Just good old fashion eyeball test. Watch the dang game man!

I like Collins as well, but Leary is better and was in TC/PS as well. He was mauling people tonight and sent one to the cart!

Do you understand how burden of proof works?

The one making the claim needs to provide it. As of now, I continue to read "Leary is better! Collins fell over!"
Yes, I do. You called, show your hand and produce otherwise......ball is in your court.

Oh, is that what we're doing here? The ol' eyeball test that differs from fan to fan depending on their biases? Well okay, I thought you had something. Thanks.

So, you don't?

Once again

Person #1 - Makes claim
Person #2 - Ask for source

The burden of proof falls directly on person 1. Person #3, being you, just butted in and doesn't change how burden of proof works.

No it was stated as his opinion. Not as a fact. The default is that we are all stating our opinions here unless someone goes out of their way to say it's a fact.

You are a joy immediately after a win...what are you like after a loss.
