LOL. Big words! You were not supposed to make a new account and come back after losing the bet. The only reason the other account is *closed* is because you tried to sneak back into the forum with a new one, thinking no one would catch on. You did not even cough up the $20 in donation.....punk!
I'd love to have Patrick Patterson and Gerald Green back aside from the obvious ex-Rockets (Lowry, Dragic...) of course.
Gotta be Portland and Sacramento. Portland's best player is going into free agency with options and George Karl wants HIS team and not the mess they have in Sac-Town.
don't be surprised if after flippy takes russell #1, the insider newsletter jumps in price by several factors
I've said this for a while but I hope harden matures more eventually. On court and from afar he just doesn't seem like the best teammate. He needs to be the first one to extend a hand when a teammate falls, or the first to high five one who makes a great shot or miss a bad one. Never cared for his demeanor but I love his talent . As silly as Dwight is there's no question he wants to win now, and given what he said about taking a back seat to Harden earlier in the year, that shows he's a good teammate.
Let's just say HisSmugness does. That would mean a deal is in place for RR. To where; for what? When announced?
Agree with you on Harden. In fact, I do have some concern that Harden (and by extension Dwight) may be influencing the player transactions and rotation minutes a little more than what I'm comfortable with. I have heard something recently that makes me think that they were a big part of the reason why McHale kept going back to Terrence and even went with Terrence in the first place last season when neither Terrence nor DMo was showing anything in pre-season. I'm not going to get into what I was told. It's too controversial and it would ignite this message board. But I will say this. A coach and GM can defer to a superstar too much in trying to please them. Players are players. They don't necessarily understand what it takes to build a champion. They understand mainly what it takes for their own individual games to be maximized efficiently. But not necessarily everything it takes to have a championship caliber team on the floor. With all that said, Harden is a phenomenal baller and on-court leader. But your on-court leaders need off-court leadership from the coach and GM in their #pursuit of championships.
Not necessarily. Flip may put him up for bid and see what he can get after picking Russell. If Flip could get #6 from Sacramento for Rubio, then he could pick up WCS and move Dieng to PF. I know for a fact Flip loves Russell. Don't be surprised if Russell goes #1.
How does a team that went thru what Houston went thru this year with all the injuries and that makes it to the WCF have chemistry issues?? Call me skeptical
I doubt this entirely. Since when has a CF poster not posted something because they were concerned it was too controversial and might "ignite" the message board. That's literally all anyone does here ever.
