    Looking back at some of the chances we could have had to add talent, our team would definitely be a playoff team. We all remember the pick where Houston selected Mirsad Turckan instead of picking up the local Houston talent, that resides in Seattle now. Also, Lee Nailon would have definitely been an easy pickup for us, since he was always working out at the Westside Tennis Club. Then there was the Dan Langhi for Eduardo Najera trade. Could you imagine having this line-up?

    PG-Wink/Mooch
    SG-Cat/Torres
    SF-Rashard/Nailon
    PF-Taylor/Thomas
    C-Griffin/Cato

    We would be loaded to the brim with talent :eek:

    im sorry, but I dont really get it.

    there were countless times when we could have made a better pick in hind sight. that didnt bother me. i think we have dome ok.

    the things that bother me, and bothered me when they happened, were us not using the injury exception. things like not getting Marc jackson. those are the opportunituies that bother me. paying a bundle for mooch, picking up rice. yeah rice was a huge one for me, but i took it because i hated anderson more that words can express(not as a player or person, but as a rocket). hell we just threw away money on that one.

    now those were justs terrible wastes
