    Signed by Morey on the cheap as backup SF/SG to little notice. Turn out to be awesomely effective starting PF.

    Forget Thomas Robinson. Forget Motiejunas. This trade is about clearing minutes for Carlos.


    Carlos Delfino is our PF of the future.

    Solid bait.

    Just incase, he is actually ridiculously inefficent for a player playing that much.

    You realize that Parsons is the starting PF and Delfino is playing the SF position?

    Delfino is Mr. Clutch and carried the team in the second half.

    whenever the nets came close to catching or surpassing us, he would crush their hopes with a long bomb 3. :grin:

    I didn't realize he was playing the 4. It's even more amazing now that we beat the Thunder! I never would have guessed.

    The question is, is he a point forward?

    I'm winning more games now in NBA 2K13 as a result of sliding Del3no to PF. Brilliant!

    Funny stuff. Teams just can't handle the versatility of the Dolphin!

    Morey really has a fetish for undersized PF's. Morey must've told McHale that Ppatt and Morris is not short enough so he traded them both. He really forced McHale's hand by trading two undersized PF's. The only question now is if we sign both Josh Smith and Dwight Howard who will start at PF? Delfino, Smith or Robinson?

    I agree, we have the best backcourt in the league, but with the addition of Delfino, we now are a power house at front court.

    If you breakdown the Rockets remaining schedule, by the last game we should be rolling out the red carpet for Lakers to send us over Dwight so he can partner up with Delfino.

    It is starting to become clear on Morey's business model when it comes to trades, and why he gets them done.

    Oh, Beverley Time!!
