    Good, glad we didn't get KJ McDaniel'd. Glad these guys will be in the summer league. I wonder what Morey used to sign Harrell.

    What the hell? Where's this animosity coming from

    He obviously meant Dekker

    Not a big deal

    What makes you say Anthony Mason was particularly athletic? Strong as hell, but I don't know about athletic. He was never going to compete with Antonio McDyess in a jumping contest, that is for sure. And Mason was tremendously skilled. One of the best examples of a point forward I've ever seen. So I think you're picking a bad player for your point.

    I make it sound like it is. Undersized power forwards who can play three to four positions are a hot item in the NBA, and the trend all teams seem to be leaning toward. Grandma on green is not A player who can actually guard five positions, he is an undersized power forward or a slower 4 who does a lot of things sbove average, but nothing exceptional. If he is not on the best 3 point shooting team in history, he is merely an afterthought instead of a ridiculously overpaid tween er who now is being paid more than the league mvp and many others who are more deserving of such an inflated contract. you can guard three positions, but the Warriors have to have someone play against the center or the point guard when they run out 5 guys who are quick, but not over or under sized, long ball shooterrs and other guys usually faster than the guys they are supposed to be guarding. Ya the small Ball lineup was successful against a rockets team missing two starters and a Cavaliers team missing two starters and half its bench. Golden state was the only team this year to not suffer any kind of significant injury and lose many games from valuable starters. Small ball is a fad, and they will not win again. Don't doubt my knowledge.
