    Phoenix is dumb as hell for that signing. I guess that they feel Gordon is a "Super Star". Glad it wasn't the Rockets.

    You wonder why Clutch, the owner of this site handed you your ass and called you a douche. You never cease to amaze. When backed into a corner, post yourself into the toilet of the internet, but it's all in fun, right? It's sad to see someone as smart as yourself make such a fool of yourself continuously.

    Gordon is one of the top SG in the NBA...and its really not debatable.

    Injuries have held him back, but he's younger than Chandler Parsons...he still has plenty of opportunity ahead of him.

    Dude, don't take this Ish so seriously.

    In all truth it is early in the entire process, and way too early to b**** and moan about anything.

    Got to give it a chance to finish and see what pieces are left.

    Do I have my doubt about it, hell yes....and posting is fun, sometimes being the target for folks lets them transfer all their anger at someone other than the team.

    At the end of the day, it is just a message board, none of this matters in real life. Let people vent if they like, let them rile folks up if they like, let them argue - no one here has any say, we are all just leaves on the breeze.

    Who could possibly take 16 pages of bi-polar b****ing and moaning seriously?

    I don't understand why everyone keeps arguing with this guys, the same guy that compared Colt McCoy to Ben Rothelisberger in the VY the Great thread.

    I'm a longhorn fan myself and did my best to help him see the truth. Guess what there's not much argument on that point now.... right?

    Point is, dude gets his jollys off this back and forth blab that he shats off his keyboard onto the web. There is no point in doing all this and as he learned with Colt, time will surely tell. Huh DD??? Hahaha :grin:

    I have been on this message board for over 12 years...and I still cannot understand the total and unnecessary hate that DD has to endure. Every single person here has their opinions regarding sports, politics, etc... Just seems like nobody can accept the fact that DD has an opinion. Who cares if he roots for VSpan? Is that really something to get your panties in a bunch over? My guess is that everyone here has had plenty of predictions that didnt work out....yet, DD has to pay the price ten-fold for getting something wrong.

    And finally, this is a ****ing message board where we come to have some fun. If you guys really take DD's comments that seriously, I suggest a psych ward. Get help and then come back here and have some fun.

    I'm trying to think of 6'3" shooting guards that are worth the max. Only one I can think of is Wade. To pay someone the max, you've gotta be getting someone who is worth well over the max since they constrain the rest of your roster. Is Gordon that guy? I haven't seen that much of him so I don't know

    Thanks Rez,

    I would like to see how others would react if they are consistently mocked, at some point you just give in and dive in the mud and start flinging the poo right back.

    I will say, that I rarely throw the first bit of poo----rarely....

    :)

    I hope we see a lot of the rookies, need to purge more of the roster though.

    Lowry, Kmart and Scola to name 3.

    If you believe what you typed about Gordon, you know nothing about basketball. "Decent scoring 6th man"?? "Jason Terry"?

    Jesus..

    Gordon at 58 mil for 4 years. DWill at 98 mil for 5 years.

    No wonder Goran wants to test the FA market.

    Did I say that the Rockets didn't offer Kmart or Lowry in a trade? No, I didn't. In fact I'm sure they did. Problem is that the other team has to want to trade their pick. If they want to hang on to their pick then the deal isn't going to happen. Feigan has already reported that we had a deal in place with Sacramento for #5 if Robinson wasn't there...unfortunately Robinson fell to #5.


    First of all, Dallas traded for Chandler, they didn't recruit him. Additionally, at the time that Chandler was traded to Dallas he was nothing more than a role player. He was traded to OKC but they recinded the deal because he failed their physical. A subsequent trade was a four way where he would land in
    Houston but that deal fell apart too. New Orleans was successful on their third try and finally traded Chandler to Dallas. Chandler definitely resurected his career in Dallas but there was no recruiting involved.

    BTW I'm assuming that you know that Vince Carter hasn't been anything more than a role player for years. Dallas isn't going to pick up their option on year #2 of Carter's deal, is that a guy you want?

    You're entire list is a bunch of role players and, I might add, many of them weren't recruited to their teams...they were drafted or traded for.

    So, I'll ask again, are the Lakers, Spurs, OKC and Boston all incompetent too since they couldn't convince anyone other than role players to come there?

    We all want the Rockets to go get a star but there's just not a lot of them out there. Would you have been happy if we'd traded for Joe Johnson?

    How about holding all of the teams up to the same standard?
