I will go on record as saying as much. Keep it as your avatar. Favors will be a bust. Patrick Patterson will be better or similar in his career achievements. Guranteed
At this point nothing is official and the details are still being worked out...utah needs to be able to deny any trade in the works to keep the relationship between them and AK in good standing. They dont want to piss him off and then end up keeping him afterall. Once it gets closer to being a done deal they may give him the heads up as courtesy, but no point in saying this early.
the difference is, i started every sentence with the words, "i think..." you would never do that. you'd state your opinion as fact. what i know is...when the Lakers beat us, they beat us like a drum. when they needed to win game 7...they didn't just beat us...they smoked us.
They didn't need to win game 1? Come on Max....your "Turn it on" thing holds no water, did they turn it on more against everyone else? The Rockets were just an even matchup for them, and we have gotten better. Does that make us the favorites, don't know....but it can't hurt that the team is improved and still has the key mismatches from that series. Oh, all of this is "I think"....I just figure that most people on this board understand that going into a post, and don't need to have their hands held and it explained by actually typing it. heheh.
