    This thread has also been about what makes someone either Greek or Nigerian. We are just covering all of our bases to be safe!

    For the sake of TRob I hope he ends up in Cleveland. They need alot of help and he could get minutes there playing along side their other young players. From all accounts he seems like a good kid and would hate to see him flipped again. Playing in the EC he would also be closer to his hometown.

    Never said "insert rookie here_______" it was a money move more than anything. I would most def replace Lin with Bev if it ment Upgrading the roster or getting that 2nd tier star PF...........i meanwho in their right mind wouldnt?!!

    Thats right .....you!:eek:

    It would be nice if you actually responded somewhat reasonably, or at least in not a sarcastic tone, but to each his own.

    I would argue that Bev's situation was different that normal though. Even if not, I don't quite see the merit of just drafting and plugging people in year after year, especially with late round picks. Sure, people like Beverly will blossom, but it's not something that happens often.

    Well, I suppose this is the end of the discussion since every response seems to be some sort of rude remark. I guess we can just agree to disagree! No harm in that.

    Yeah, would be nice to see him get a solid chance to develop. And just in case he pans out, he'll be out of the conference ;)

    Not really a pushover, just don't see any point in arguing over the internet with people like you. Cheers!

    Effing ABJs polluting every thread...

    T-Rob is probably the only 2012-13 Rocket that I don't care about one way or the other. He didn't do anything to impress me or make me dislike him. I wish him the best of luck, whether he's returning next season or not.

    WTF is an ABJ?

    I can think of many things it could be an acronym for, but all of them are sexual acts and I don't think that's what you are meaning.

    So people started using that when they realized using "LOH" made them lose all credibility? Interesting.

    But anyways thanks for cluing me in.

    I think it would be awesome if we did a three team deal and ended up getting rid of Delfino, Robinson and Garcie and whoever else we need to boot.

    ? Just TRob. We can just choose not to pick up the option on Garcia or the pick up Delfino.

    Just heard a rumor Bulls are interested in LMA and plan to use T-Rob to get him. Granted this was found on a Bulls rumor page on twitter, but still intriguing nonetheless.

    It would be nice to get rid of Royce as well. But I somehow hoped we'd get more out of T-Rob when we traded for him. How about a first rounder next season by Cleveland?

    I don't even care what we get for T-Rob as long as we get rid of Royce White. Addition by subtraction.
