    YA THINK??!?!!?! :p

    If they had dumper her yesterday it would have been too late. Just....annoying. Like the fat girl snort-giggling because she just "tooted" real loud in her cubicle. "Was that you?" "YES----HEE HEE **snort**."

    Her presence only magnifies what the network is about: glorifying the big markets and the two or three contending teams.

    Nope. DMO and Jones played around 25-30 games together. In all those games DMO was starting over Jones, except when neither of them was starting or both were starting due to DMO playing center. Once Jones returned from injury he didn't start over DMO at PF not even once for that stretch of ~30 games prior to DMO injury.
    Now that I wrote it black on white, it IS a possibility that DMO doesn't start next year, just like Jones didn't regain his starting spot returning from injury. But while Jones was out DMO proved he's a better player, while Jones didn't get any credit, he only lost it during those couple last games of regular season and playoffs.
    So yeah, Smith is after all a likely candidate to be starting PF to start next season. :(

    Smith is better equipped to guard LMA than anybody attainable. We will need Smith

    I don't think Morey would have flew down there if he did have plan to move pieces to get LMA. In fact I think he has several plans. As for whether LMA wants to play here or not, I'm not sure he even knows right now.

    How can they give Green that contract when they still have to sign Duncan and Ginobili. There's no way they have cap space for LMA.

    I think the difference is "agreed" vs "signed".

    I rather he goes to the Lakers (a recent lottery team) than the Spurs (recent champion) if he's not coming here.

    Multiple sauces!

    Anyone feel like that's a little too much for Danny Green? Something like 4/36 would be better.
