    I don't see what the big deal is. Maybe he pans out, maybe he doesn't, it doesn't matter.

    1) He didn't cost us a draft pick.
    2) He's not taking up cap space.
    3) He's not using a spot on the roster.

    The only thing he cost the team was 3 million dollars, and even then that was out of Les' pocket.

    Sorry Tinman, just because anyone signed on the Rockets board earlier does not mean it excludes you from having any sort of class or common social courtesy. Aruba has been acting like a fool on purpose and that's the truth of it.

    that really hurt my feelings

    seriously though, i have no idea why having an opinion means that i am a "hater" or a "fool". I never hate on someone for their opinions. I do, however, hate on those who react by waging personal attacks.

    I'm sorry you didn't get the red bike for Christmas.

    This will be my last post. You are a good troll who laces truth with personal attacks yourself. I've bolded the part where you purposefully waged a personal attack.

    Now, I'm sure you'll reply because you get kicks from trolling, that's fine. But I just wanted to point out you are being a hypocrite.

    He's noting the play of this draft pick in a brutally honest way.
    he's just being real.

    Real is good. It's not like he's calling anyone a douche or anything. That would simply be a personal attack bringing nothing to the dialog, and in no way honest, brutal or otherwise.

    I usually respect your view tinman but in my opinon, calling somebody "douchebag" or saying "I am your father" is not being real.

    It's unfair to judge a player on such a small sample. What if we were to judge Nicolas Batum solely on his Olympic play? Sergio seems to be a good player, has a nice jump shot, he is known to be explosive, some say he is a natural born leader. I think he is more of a 2 guard, but you can't rule out him running the point if you suddenly become shorthanded. I couldn't tell you a thing about how he is defensively, or how much effort he puts into improving and playing.
    I say we bring him over and see what he has to offer. Worst case scenario is him getting the boot.

    The guy called me a hater, disgusting, and said I should be kicked out of my own thread. Why? Cause I was critical of Llull. He disagreed with me, so he started insulting me. I never waged a personal track till then. Then the dude follows me into another thread and starts bashing me again. I'd say he's a douchbag. 13 years on this board I've never been called a troll. But hey, it's not like I can jump through the computer and do anything about it. I don't think I have anything to prove.

    So this newb above threw the first stone against the 99er.
    The 99er is allowed to throw back at this cheap Mitch Kupchack game 5 move

    This is your thread, your first comment: Let's see.
    You just called the guy a scrub then you said your not saying he's a bad player?
    Why you call him a scrub? Clearly you don't like the guy, if you don't have the likes nor interest in LLULL why you even bother to create a post bashing the dude.
    "You hate dude, and it disgusts me" that is not personal attack. If I included your family like you did to me then it would be. You want respect? You earn it dude.

    OH AND BTW, the "I'm your father" was epic. It just shows how personal your taking this.

    Not unless you're a 99er. Seriously, this thread just needs to be deleted. But its like an accident scene you can't help looking.

    Oh I'm sorry how many were calling Lin(not even a 2nd rounder)a scrub?

    So the newb became vets and vets became newbs?

    Can I say you got owned?
