    I saw SA and some guy i didnt know @ PF Changs on Saturday after the Game.. I went over and offerred to buy them a drink. Did anyone know he had a lip ring? He was really cool and offerred to buy me a drink too and was asking about some of the girls at our table. Then came by the table and said take it easy to me on his way out - they were going downtown. Really Nice-Classy guy..have to appreciate that. I may be one person that likes him over Mobley. I think his defense and win-at-all costs attitude will compliment Franchise better. Of course i'd like to keep both of them...but to me SA is less expendable. He took less money to come here and is really starting to get his groove in Rudy's system. I think you can compare him to a younger Scottie Pippen ( with shorter arms!) He also brings playoff experience and clutch performances there ( i'd like to see Utah this year w/o him against the Kings ) Anyway who do you like better SA or CM...

    In a close match-up, I tend to favor the better defensive player. So, it is Shandon by a lip ring.

    but it is painful to me to think of losing either.

    Amen heypartner. I have grown into one of the biggest Mobley fans out there. You can read prior posts to see how much I really disliked his game.

    If he can accept being the perrinial sixth man who gets his 35-40 minutes a game, this team will rock in a few years. Plus, he could become the best 6th man ever.

    I don't want to lose either. However, if trading one would bring an upper caliber front court player say via sign and trade (Duncan, Webber {next year}, or Hill), then I'd do it with Mobley. Anderson is just too damn versatile to give up.

    Is it any coincidence that we are the only NBA (sorry for any confusion regarding my earlier signature, I do realize that the Braves and Stars are both mentioned in the national anthem) team mentioned in the national anthem?

    I didn't think so!
