    After entering all of the hints and equations in this thread into my database, I have come up with one definitive answer to all of this speculation. The player that is being referred to is Udesgf Fekwanatata from the Sri Lankan national team. Tell me I'm wrong. Better yet just tell us who the hell it is. O.K. just blowin off steam, I just hope it's not Travis Best.

    The main reason Brian Grant is struggling in the Lakers series is because Dunleavy is using him as a back-up center. At 6'9' and 250, he is clearly a Power Forward and Power Forward only. But because of Sabonis' foul trouble and low endurance, they're playing Grant on Shaq, who is 4 inches and 80lbs larger. He's basically being used as a part of the hak-a-shaq strategy. It wouldn't be fair to assess B.Grant based on this series alone.

    The player Rudy was talking about is Jason Collier.

    The whole deal was to please Matt Bullard's last hurrah, by getting a player who'll stand behind the three point line with him(it can get lonley back there), but mainly getting a player who'll attend ZZtop concerts with him on the road. That latter part was the kicker. It put the deal in orbit.

    Good to see that racial stereotyping hasn't gone out of style. Can't have too many ignorant people in the world. [​IMG]

    Ugh. This thread resurfacing again? Hell, I saw, "Rockets working on something?" and thought someone had a great scoop [​IMG]

    Player was Austin Croshere. I think many got that from threads that came up later. This was posted when they were up 2-0 over Philly and I was asked not to post anything until he was out of the playoffs.

    Which took a hell of a lot of time.

    That first post by Clutch STILL sounds pretty enticing. Did we ever find out who it was? Surely you can say something by now???
