    dude, you have been following me around and calling me names in almost every one of my posts in the last few months. What's your problem? Are you a gay man yourself so you take so much offense at what I said there? Do you honestly disagree that the thread is gay? Dude, if you dislike what I say that much, why don't you just put me on ignore. Are you too stupid to figure out how to use the ignore button? Just go away and leave me alone, you lame bugger!

    I noticed your internet traffic seems to be getting smoother as the attention you're getting drops.

    The point is, there's no real need to attack the thread. It's not...a bad thing. Is Pryuen's title really worthy of such wrath? It's not a "gay" thread. This is a community, and he feels connected to it. So what? What else do you want to talk about? The merits of signing Kevin Willis? Fine by me.

    I think we should not sign Kevin Willis.

    I guess I don't think as much for pryuens contribution as those who can't read chinese.

    My biggest beef with pryuen is his overly defensive attitude with "BIG" Yao.

    OP-Yao needs to work on blah blah more, he is getting blah blah blah.....

    Pryuen- :mad: (randomly bolded angry red letters)* how is BIG YAO suppose to do this when____(insert ref/tmac/rockets players)____ hog the ball/bad calls/play badly.
    insert eyeroll here and there.

    That kind of attitude annoys me more then his overly hyped concern with people recognizing his contribution and importance (which he justly deserve).

    The pics and articles really don't tell me anything important/don't already know, add that with the fact that a lot of the articles gets lost in translation because he tries too hard to over articulate the words in the article rather then a simple direct translation.

    That been said to translate entire articles word by word takes quite a long time, and requires a lot of dedication. I guess you just have to take Pryuen's attitude with it, if you enjoy reading them.

    And here I thought that I was the only one that noticed that.

    I'm ambivalent about it. I like the pictures he posts, b/c apparently no one else wants/bothers to, and I'm certainly not going to go cruising websites that are in Chinese.

    That said, he can be rude, annoying, and a ridiculous Yao ass-kisser to boot. In fairness he does put alot of work into translating those articles, but at the same time he's quick to point out how incredibly demanding it was to do it, etc. I felt sorry for him when he lost his job, but frankly, I haven't missed him.

    Yao never has a bad game, when we lost in game 7 a few years back, it was Tmac's fault that Boozer kept out rebounding him and Okur was left wide open for a three pointer and that we couldn't buy an offensive rebound if we had 10 guys on the court.

    Yao never has a bad game. Its never Yao's fault.

    It was in a sling at the time of the pic but he's not wearing it anymore right now. He had to wear that after his shoulder surgery.

    alot of you guys are very ungrateful for the work Pru puts into this stuff. I am starved for any news and I appreciate the translations very much. To be honest I just read the articles and dont delve much deeper than that anymore.

    Alright man, we get it you guys don't like it when we don't give him props. I think he gets enough props from the others. A lot of us are just neutral and we don't care since we know we can get those pictures ourselves. Pryuen has to be one of the most controversial characters on these message boards.

    I would like to see Yao can win a ship with another great player,tmac. However, it seems hopeless for them to gain that ,as that they don't mesh each other at all ,just as one is oil while the other is water .So it's time to trade one of them,i suggest yao. Trade yao to spurs for Manu and bruce bowen as a package,then we will have no other center besides deke.So make another deal with spurs ,trading head for oberto .

    yao will have more oppotunities to win the champion ring ,what he has been looking forward to .Besides ,our new paint couple ,scola&oberto may not be much weaker than that Yao&scola. While, we will get an ideal backup for tmac,manu is more efficient than tmac. To some degree,manu may also solve our PG problem as he has good dribble ,shooting and passing skills.Bruce can backup battier ,or even take his place then make shane tradable.we may trade Shane for a aggresive guy like artest.
    for spurs,yao can make up their missing piece at the 5th position .Yao will form the most powerful paint domination together with Duncan.Lossing oberto doesn't harm them because they will get yao.While after landing margette they will consider Bruce Bowen unnecessary.but spurs may as well re-sign finley to make up their 2nd position,which neither Uduka nor Corey will fit.What'more ,luther head may get more time on court for the sake of their lack at this position.
    I think it's a deal that benefits both teams ,the Gms of both teams will be likely to accept that.At least i can make sure that the spurs won't be gonna decline it .


    why not trade yao , now that no one is untradable.Yao should be also glad to join spurs to realize his champion dream,so there is no need to worry that yao may refuse the deal with his bird rights.After all ,we will trade him to spurs instead of bobcats.

    Despite I had quite a few unplesant moments with Pryuan, I do give him as much respect as I can give to anyone in this forum just for his dedication.

    Oh, yes, Brett Favre is missed more than Troy Aikman or any football players from Dallas or any part of Texas.

    (I haven't read this forum for a while, so I might have missed something and don't know what I am talking about.)

    I like to give Pryuen some flack now and then, he's still one of the better posters here. I called it that he wouldn't retire.
