    I love listening to someone who knows basketball. And Robert Reid knows the ins and outs because he's been there. I hope Reid never stops talking.

    Reid was dominating the microphone and got annoying after a while but I agree. Anytime a former player can offer interesting perspectives that you never thought of (like the equipment manager example) it puts a smile on your face.

    I love listening to people who know basketball to, but for some reason he was just extremely annoying today. Normally I think he's great but wow, he wouldn't shut up today. Anyway, good stuff Clutch as always!

    I could only listen for a few minutes, but Reid sounded like he was one something. Very charismatic, though. It must have been a lively locker room with him and Calvin.

    Robert didn't seem like he's in tune with what's going on with this team. I understand different viewpoints but some of his points had no relevance to the team. Saying that Ron is playing like a skirt was way off base. I don't even want to know how or why he thinks Rafer would beat anyone on a full court sprint. I've listened to him before but today he was off his game.

    I think he was trying to get across that Rafer was a competitor. Didn't they say that last season he was out running even AB in sprints when he was challenged by not one, not two, but three possible replacements.

    Thanks,he lost me with that statement. I understood it as Rafer being an open court/running type of guard. Still I think we could all agree that Rafer is a competitor but that isn't as much of an issue. His FG % and inconsistency is front and center.

    I've often heard that Rafer almost always wins in end to end races during training camp. The guy will keep himself in great shape, and he's competitive. For all his faults, he has that.

    Exactly. Rafer is a big time competitor. He always plays and is always gonna give you 110%, even when he can't shoot.

    Cluctch do you think the organization will keep TMac even after all the drama?
    That Marbury for TMac sure looks better now. I would try and get something for TMac on the 19th. 8 more days till.

    Great. I still think David and Ken are better, but it is still a lot of fun.

    Will be listening, thanks.

    Clutch, if you could discuss possible trades for the Rockets, and the Tmac situation that would be awesome.

    Listening in....
