    Me thinks that if K-Mart looked more like Mike Dunleavy people wouldn't have an issue with this......

    Opposite with our PF situation. He is coming in looking to coach and will end up being our starting PF.

    makes more sense. im guessing this means they weren't happy with what they saw from everyone in preseason then between dorsey/black/adrien?

    He and Morey share in their hatred of Mark Cuban.

    Would you rather have Martin or McHale as your starting PF at this point?

    Thought so. :grin:

    He doesn't have dial up lol. He's got money now. Back then they didn't want him, but now he's hot and they all on him.

    Anyway, Morey will hit him up on the low because he knows he's about to blow.

    Looking past his appearance. I can see him bringing toughness to the team where he teaches the bigs to play like actual bigs and box out and defend in the post. Who knows he might even become the next lite-Thibs.
    Or he is just looking to cash some checks. Assuming he was hired

    Not sure about him in a coaching role but maybe as a player, he brings that toughness and defense.

    Yes, you're exacltly right.

    Welcome to the real world where appearance matters.

    Btw, don't make this a racial issue, you couldve easiy given the example of numerous representable black athletes.
