I've been posting on here for a long time although I post more often now on the main board. I'm well aware of the UNC board and how it is run, but I'm not familiar with this dude. Is he a UNC fan or what?
Short answer, yes.

On Briscoe having an impact I have no doubt of it. Briscoe is a strong combo-guard who is physically ahead of his peers. Already cut and powerful, he has excellent ball skills and the ability to make tough shots from the perimeter. The young guy can slash and score ,and he will have plenty of opportunities to do it this season.

That makes sense.
Over your head, apparently chief.
I'll dumb it down just for you. OP( Smooth) is a notorious troll. Do. Not. Reply. To. His. Threads.

<----------------Middle School's that way, Sosa.
Intelligent people can have an interesting discussion on a topic no matter who brought it up. I'm not 13 and I'm not interested in joining your stupid clique. We're all allowed to talk legitimate basketball with whomever we want to. Smooth's not doing any textbook trolling in this thread (and by the way, you are: http://www.osnews.com/story/25540/Why_People_Troll_and_How_to_Stop_Them/) so I don't give a rat's butt what he is or isn't somewhere in some other thread.
And even when we get real trolling in threads, the way to shut that trolling down is either stay out of the thread or take over the thread with real basketball talk. Not scream and spam like a three year old girl.
Content is a setup too. Oh really, a starter is going to have an impact next season? No way!Complete troll thread. The thread title is spelled wrong to make UK fans look dumb. Total set up with thread title, content is just BS excuse for troll title. Ive seen enough of your act man. You are never welcome here. And youre the worst kind of troll, neither smart or creative. Do us all a solid and pull a michael jackson and beat it!!
Thanks Blue. I'm not worried man to me it's just a message board lol, I'm not being disrespectful to anyone.<----------------Middle School's that way, Sosa.

Well it's fine if Sosa doesn't want to read, but for the education of the board generally:My clique? Middle school? What in the hell are you talking about? I just let you know you got trolled. What you do with that information is your business big guy.
Didn't read the rest of your post either so can't comment on the rest. thanks.
Sorry Blue, can't agree with you on this one. This guy has constantly ripped our players, our coach and our posters on rival boards for the last several years, including this past one. You feel free to converse with the guy and when the season starts he will mock you as well.
He posted this thread after discussion in another thread spilled over into Briscoe being the weak link/odd man out territory.
Given the OP's history, it could be deducted that he started this thread to try to pull out more such discussion. Or maybe he's turned over a new leaf.
Four Corners is a PREMIUM board over on the UNC Rivals Site. Seems our buddy smooth as butter is a member there as indicated by the below post. What casual fan pays to post on another team's board? This may be the very reason our MODS gives the worm so much leeway. Pretty sad IMO to allow a poster to troll simply because he is a premium member but it is what it is.
Roy has busy Wednesday
Ingram will be a great pickup if the heels get him.

And you are on the ignore list lol.
Lol relax man it's just a message board.Well it's fine if Sosa doesn't want to read, but for the education of the board generally:
Trolling is for a REACTION. That's the damage of trolling. It makes people post emotional reactions. Then that turns threads into emo fests. Trolls love that and it's bad for the board.
If a guy posts something that makes people discuss BASKETBALL coolly and logically, no trolling happened.
It doesn't matter what some OPs intent may have been. How are we ever to know what exact intent each OP has with new threads? And why should we care? If it generates useful exchange of ideas, that's the board. That's what we're here for.
Now, whatever you personally think of Smooth (I personally used to blow up on him a lot in the past...trying to be cooler these days and it pays off) many of his threads generate a lot of good discussion. From a lot of good people on here. And I care about their opinions.
If you don't like that, it's cool. If you think all those posters (including many of our best) having those interesting discussions in all those cases were getting trolled, you're wrong. But again, that's cool. You're welcome to be wrong.
But sure would be nice if people could restrict the troll-tattling spamming to actual trolling.
Because, this being a basketball board, it doesn't really matter to some of us whether good discussion is interrupted by trolling itself or by trolling-related public service messages.
It's still interrupted.
And yeah, I get that I'm interrupting it too with this post of mine.
Maybe can we both just make this thread nicer by zipping it here unless we have anything to add about Briscoe having an impact to(o).
