    All in

    I'm all in on this pick up! I hope he can stick around a while. I think he needs to learn not to talk about the business so much, but that will come with time.
    Great interview on your part Clutch!!

    The NBDL developed Chuck Hayes. JVG rejected him twice, didn't want him on the roster. Maybe he was turned off by his legal troubles back then?, but CD and Dennis Lindsey pushed hard to get him on the Rockets.

    this sold me more on him. I know he has Rondo potential but I didn't know he CHOSE Houston. I thought they purposely went and got him. makes it more interesting.

    I thought he was a delicious beer/bloody mary combo served in Mexican restaurants and at Captain Tom's.

    Didn't we all know Lowry was gone? Plus, this guy reminds me of Russell Westbrook...by the way his face looks

    As opposed to Lillard's sked? And BTW - - SM only went up against The Gaels in practice.

    Patterson showed he had good defense but offensively the only thing he had going for him in his first season was the occasional put back and 10 -12 ft jumper. Until he develops some post moves, he is a poor man's Reshard Lewis with Chuck Hayes type positioning.

    I loved that flick. So much happening in the background. I watched it 10 to 15 times before I thought I had picked up everything...& I probably still missed something.:grin:

    Yeah, I thought so. I knew. The only part I didn't know was letting Dragic walk so easily.
