    Points for you, aussie rocket!


    Interesting that our two captains/leaders are training together this summer. I wonder how that happened. Is it out of convenience (driving in from the same neighborhood)? Bud's hanging out together? Suggestions from the management?

    And you gotta love the second statement. If AB is all that we attribute him, having Carl suggest he should watch his back because of Kyle is :eek: .

    That's a lot of speed between those two PGs, lots of speed. What team can seriously keep up with AB and Kyle?

    wow cool stuff mate....now lets hope its really Landry!! hehe, kidding man. im looking at Landry to improve further this season, his "D" especially. but most important is to play with a lot of heart like he usually do.

    He always comes back improved... he is one of the better defenders on the team (actually better than Scola) however it goes unnoticed. I can remember a several times he has saved games with blocks or his defense... the Deron Williams block for one and then he had a key block in the Phonix game... and more come to mind. This guy is the goods... I think Kyle Lowry, if given the minutes, can be within the top 5 in the league in assists AND can finish as well as ANY PG in the NBA.

    Kyle Lowry is definitely da goods......I've always been one of Kyle's BIGGEST fans......hmmm interesting that Carl mentioned that he and Kyle and Shane and Luis are working out and probably implying that most other non-rookie guys are just still on holiday somewhere...now if that includes Aaron Brooks then I don't like that from Aaron...he's only a 2nd year player and so he's still got alot to learn and improve on...its not exactly he had a all-star season last season so he can just kick back and wait for training camp...I mean Kyle has got more NBA experience than he does and Kyle is working out ALL offseason.

    Questionable attitude if Aaron isn't working out too...........

    Great stuff! 5 stars my man! He sounds like a pretty down-to-earth guy, which is really no surprise.

    I guess Landry has not heard about T-mac training in Chicago.

    I doubt if Aaron isn't working out. Kyle should be the starter,Aaron is a 2 guard who can pass a bit.

    aussie rocket,

    Carl just sent me a facebook message.

    "Tell the aussie guy to stop posting my bizness on clutchfans or I will take him off my friend's list."

    ;)

    could it be fake? it's not like he gave us a bunch of insider info or something.

    not saying it is...just wondering.

    well if he did have "supposedly-insider" info and it doesn't end up coming true then his rep here is seriously in question......but basically with wat he wrote there thers nothing u can hold against him...cos in the end it is just another normal plain chat and no actual rumors or info can be gained from there...he knows we've got no material to hold against him so thers no risk whatsoever
