jealousy

say you've got a long time friend you've always competed with...lots of us have those. similar interests and goals...so what if that friend starts achieving what you wanted to achieve? does that jealousy motivate you to work harder towards your goals, or simply make you depressed?

i personally do let jealousy get in the way of my motivation sometimes...getting down because someone else is moving farther ahead than me...especially when i don't think they deserve it. but i try to let it motivate me to try even harder. anyone else use jealousy as fuel?

The last few times that I was in that situation, I patted their back, told them they're lookin' good, Then I would say "looks like you're doing good for yourself, proud of ya man". Made them feel good and in turn made me feel good to put a smile on their face. ;)

everyone gets jealous regardless if you admit it or not. I just try to be happy for anybody that is successful. If they are more successful then me then it usually motivates me to work harder.

pssh whatever! who do i have to be jealous of? seriously?

lol i kid i kid, i get jealous sometimes and like you said it motivates me though I honestly don't get jealous much at all. It doesn't bother me to admit others are much better than i am.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
