yinoma seemed offended....I thought it was high praise for his debating skills?
another one...epak - he will not usually take a strong stand against you....but will respond with questions...often of the passive aggressive type...but still simple questions on the surface. Then there is the dilemma...if you know exactly what he is doing, and respond rudely, you look like an ass.....but if you play along and provide answers, he will just follow up with more questions. This will continue until you disengage or look like an ass by not answering his "simple & honest" questions.

honestly, never been able to get past the hair.....I hate it....dude looks like a clown out there.....but the kid can defend at an above average level...he can create a little and finishes well. I do not trust his shot....it is still pretty low volume this season. If he could get his shot to where he is putting up 4 3's a game, and knocking down 37-38% of them, I do think he has the skills to be a solid starting NBA PG. I can also see him maybe being a good fit beside Booker in PHX. |

Yea, that hair!
He looked really good in his debut for Pho.
I think he'll be a good fit there. And surprise to me, Josh Jackson has been looking better the last month. They just need some decent bigs because I'm not a fan of Bender and Chriss.
Payton, Booker, Jackson...
They need a Julius type.
errr... I mean.. So what do you think about Payton's vision.... haha. just playing.

I guess we don't have to stretch Deng if we only sign 1 max this summer. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

not so much a method....but you will always be pro Lakers organization....like I think Magic could trade Lonzo and Kuzma tomorrow for Joakim Noah, and within 24 hours you will have found a way to see it as a positive move, and try to convince others on LG of Noah's value. You are almost always in alignment with the majority opinion....which I assume is mostly a result of always being pro organization. A glass half full guy.
you have been here forever....and that response is mostly based on last 12-24 months memory.....it is all in fun....no desire to offend. |

I have done the math before but don't have it in front of me right now, but I believe the answer is YES.
The cap will go up by $7M if I remember correctly. The team could wait until next season to stretch Deng with would save another million plus. This should get close to the 35M max and certainly be enough for the 30M max. I think. _________________ "He not busy being born is busy dying" Bob Dylan |
