wolves finally have a 2 guard for the first time in 5 years. This will also free up more playing time for d will & every time beasely touched the ball the movement stopped because all he does is shoot.

the city will be dull without him but winning cures everything

so i endorse

now to the important news: jeremy lin's 6 turnovers equal his number of assists but with no crawford anyone can beat portland... despite having the most athletic PF in the league who isn't the best rebounder, defender, shooter, or passer.

I see you but how is Jamal Crawford any different in that regard?

good point. 2 guard is our weakest position, we have nothing there making this acceptable whereas we have 3 michael beasely types

peanut butter · Post by **peanut butter** » Wed Mar 14, 2012 10:31 pm

Word. Regardless, I like the move because it strengthens the 2, where the team needs help. And it replaces Beasley as the one dimensional scorer on a team that needs someone to fill that role. And it opens up more time for D-Will.

Fixed

This trade isn't official yet and there are a couple versions of it with Ridnour going to Portland instead of Blake. The Blazers would supposedly get one of LA's 1st rounders.

I don't want no parts of the Beas. Doesn't seem like he's worth the headache, even though we have the WORST bench in the NBA. Muthafuckas provide next to nothing on a consistent basis.

McBob is worthless.
TMurph is worthless.
Kapono is shit.
Bill's kid is 5th string SF and he's beyond worthless. Ponder being 5th string SF behind another wack as player in Devin Ebanks for a minute?

Since Jim Buss is obscessed with white bench players with Indiana ties who can't play, maybe he should hit up Travis Deiner and see what he's doing.

. Out.

So I walk in to the training room this morning and Ricky Rubio calls me a douche. Looks like the Spaniard learned his new word for the week.

So Dwight now decides to opt in and sign a tender for next year with the magic. Is this dude fucking bipolar???

Positive A · Post by **Positive A** » Thu Mar 15, 2012 11:16 am

Ok...

So LOL @ a full Heat roster losing to a Rose-less Bulls team led by....John Lucas III.

LOL @ the moniker "The Pope".

LOL @ 2 games in a row (Orlando/Chicago) where LeBron has disappeared in the 4th. This is the best magic show since "The Prestige".

In fact, this is my new nickname for LeBron. "Prestige".

Sam Young to 6ers.

And I just read on teh twitterz that Leandro has been traded to the Pacers but I don't know what the Raps are getting back.

fans would've reamed this guy for leaving and you criticize him for staying?

Boozer really stepped up against the Heat. He finished with 2 points in 26 minutes.

Someone put that stupid faggot out of his misery already.

Deng is the walking dead out there right now. He needs to sit out for a few games just to rest his wrist.

A victory against the Heat without Rose, Boozer, and Deng is mad impressive. Check out Jimmy Butler - he's looking like a keeper.

This is dumb even if he wants to stay in Orlando. He just gave up the chance to opt out and sign the 100+ mil extension with the Magic. He's clearly a manchild whose desires sway with the wind.
