Saw the finals of bullet on chess dot com, Bortnyk was saying Naka would be a favorite VS Carlsen in bullet because Bortnyk played Carlsen on lichess etc., Naka went on to say Carlsen and Alireza would have a chance against him etc.
yeah ok, Carlsen was playing bong clouds, drinking beer, talking to friends, leaving for half hour, berzerking 2600s, looking away from the screen and still wining of course, not to mention he smashed Naka in bullet not long ago. These people are delusional and need to show respect for the champ.

That's just how chess players show that they care about each other.
Beer and chess go hand in hand.
Those people are trolls last time they had events with magnus he would constantly beat Naka and could easy beat 2nd rate players like Bortnyk the fact is this people love to troll it is in their DNA the higher rated you are the bigger ego you will have which will result in more trolling (yes all top players have trolled there are youtube videos showing they have at one time or another) expecting people to show respect is like expecting you boss to give you a pay rise just just because your doing a good job lol
Sound like you said Naka defended Carlsen.
Imagine you favorite tv show--especially wrestling--where all the characters got along. Everything is boring without conflict, and the ones who now promote chess (entertainment) are well aware of this.
Naka definitely has a chance at 1 0 bullet against Carlsen.
From all the chess that I have watched so far, my opinion is that DrNykterstein is of his own class. I have yet to see a player playing at such high level with that consistency.
Btw how can expressing an opinion that one player would be a favorite against another player be called "trash talking"?
Omaigahd, scandalous, SCANDALOUS!
More rants coming up:
Naka got bishop h6’d by Bortnyk, and never played him again after that, told him: “I hate you, never playing you again”. What a sore loser! When Naka did catch someone else trying to Bishop h3 him Naka took the bishop and burst out laughing saying: “nice try, nice try!” But when he didn’t catch it he became sore loser.
And what was that thing with him sitting for half hour crying after losing to Carlsen and not resigning??? Come on brah.
