    Millionaires in our hearts. Love is true wealth and you can have it all as much as you want. With true love and living to help others you will have infinite wealth for the soul. If you live and love you can heal the world a little brother. If we all do it we can make it a magical place ❤️

    That's such a good way of putting it. We're neurologically hardwired to be negative. You do have to be relentless to beat that back with positivity and hope. Damn if I don't struggle with it every day. I know you've been through some terrible things; it'd be easy to lose hope. But "relentless hope" feels like it's something more solid, like a direct challenge put before us on how to approach the negative world outside of us and inside of us. I appreciate our OP's hope, I appreciate yours, and I think I'll aspire to try to relentlessly get more of it into my life. Life's too difficult otherwise.

    Sam Dekker? Clint Capela? Terrence Jones? Marcus Morris? Jeremy Lamb? Terrence Williams? Motiejunas was a also 1st rounder traded to Rockets.

    Amen to relentless hope.

    I've lived a majority of the millennium with that as my motto. : )

    I haven't missed a game either live or on TV in .... Ever.

    And you are watching your first game of the year ?!


    I wish I was as optimistic as you about a championship but I aint feeling it.

    If russ can continue to play the way he has the last two games and we can miraculously get a consistent 3/4 to relieve Tucker some time then maybe. As is.. I think it is going to be tough.

    Rogues gallery traditionally refers to criminals, degenerates or people of disrepute.

    Harsh.

    I made no such comparison - least not singling out Hart n GC... Trez still burns my biscuits though...
    Simple question... If it had been MDA instead of Rudy T - do we win?

    That is not a fair question, the answer is completely subjective and unverifiable.

    I also wanted to keep Harrell, but that was not MDA's fault. Morey made that trade.

    Your D'Antoni bias may not be malicious but it is a bias nonetheless.
