    I got a minute and a half in before turning that off. In the NBA those offensive fouls would be called

    So if I'm not mistaken, LL is spanish is pronounced as a Y. So do we pronounce his name as Yuy?

    Didn't we use it on him this season which would prevent us from using it next season. Right?

    I think I answered my own question. We can't give him the bi-annual but we can give him the non-bird exemption which is 120 percent of his salary with us.

    I agree with this. He's happy here and wants to stay with his buddy Dwight and I noticed his also a good friend with Harden as well.

    You guys are crazy.

    A player like smith (read: not lifers like Duncan/dirk) is not leaving millions on the table to hang out w his pal. I know we would like that to happen as friends, but this is really his last chance to really pull down a sizable contract.

    :)) Yes! But even here ther are distinctions. In the catalan dialect, it is said "Yuy".At the rest of Spain people says "You'll".

    How does he have no athleticism? He's obviously pretty quick, and I saw him throw down a 2-hand jam in that video. How many 6'2" point guards do you see dunking, much less with two hands in the half-court?

    I just heard an announcer pronounce it "Yooey". Like "Huey" with a silent H.
