    It is in the way you always make your attempt at humor by taking a passive aggressive shot at other posters.

    It is who you are Mr. Clutch - it's cool...

    It wasn't a shot at you. It was a joke about HashThab's good qualities. Not everything is about you.

    But you make everything about you - it's cool...

    I am the one that talks about him speaking 5 languages, and you know it, and yes, it was about me, as are a lot of your posts, I am thinking maybe you would like to buy me a beer......since you think about me so much.

    I didn't notice that it was only you speaking 5 languages. I think it's funny. That's all.

    And no, my posts are not mostly about you.

    I will keep a tally, sounds like I probably should do that with a lot of posters, to point out how much I am on their mind...CXbby, HP come to mind...

    I have more than enough time, as my team does the work, and I manage it, and it can help point out that the people that are looking to start an argumemnt with me are just as much of an issue as some people think I am on here, it does take two to tango.

    It would be interesting to see the tally. Yes it does take 2 to tango.

    I will see how it goes, but probably keep it in my sig, the problem might become that everyone is looking to get INTO the tally though, and then it would become a nuisance....need to think this through a bit.

    Will these tallies be verified or will they be treated like how many fouls our bigs have in the 4th quarter?

    I am the judge and jury, it is my world on this tally tote board, but I would make a post acknowledging that it is going into the tally.....

    If effective means that 1 out of 3 rolls winds up in a turnover because the pass bounces off his noggin, then.....yeah, he could be very effective.

    Come on guys. Wake up! He can't play. We played him in a blowout to hopefully preserve some legs for tonight's game. That is the only reason. And McHale waited until the 4 minute mark to bring him in, sticking with Dally up until that point. Know what that means??? That means that when McHale pulled everybody and went to the end of the bench at the 8 minute mark, when Jordan Hill got into foul trouble, he brought back Dally....in a blowout!!! Why??? Because he didn't want to bring in Thabeet and watch San Antonio go on a massive run and make it a game. He didn't feel confident to pull Dally until there were 4 minutes left, 4 MINUTES!!!

    Thabeet won't get off the bench tonight. Frankly, he probably won't even be active tonight.

    Gentlemen. As my therapist wisely said .... When someone lashes out at you .... Most of the time it is their issue and not yours. So keep this in mind when you take things so personally........, That will be $200

    ... And Thabeast is not good.

    Of course it is their issue, I would just like to help facilitate their recovery.

    And Thabeet is not good but has a shot at getting better.

    DD, how about some basketball? I'd like you to explain to me what you see in Thabeet that even remotely resembles Dalembert's game. I'm going off this quote. And no, being tall doesn't count!

    Come on... you can't be serious!

    Of course I am, he can be a disruptive force on defense ala Dalembert, with time and effort.

    He just needs to get some confidence and consistent playing time.

    Heck Deck, he outscored Dalembert in only 3 minutes......

    Dalembert and Hibbert are a couple of examples of guys who finally found their NBA niche, I think Thabeet will too, but he needs a coach who will believe in him and teach him, and let him play through his mistakes.

    Now maybe that is McHale, maybe not.

    Honestly, he probably should be our backup Center, as JHill just does not have enough sand in his britches to play that spot....

    I hope you're right .... He just looks irreparably lost on the defensive end.
