I failed to go to sleep. I'm surprised you're the only one to post so far. No biggie. People can post on 40 till it hits a 100 or it gets locked.

I gotta get ready for my trip. I'll be following on my phone though.

I think we finally get the coach announcement today.

Oh geez! Wonder if it will be the same B.S. he said earlier? How do guys like this think they have any credibility? Are they that delusional? I hope this all ends soon. Whoever's side you take, nobody is really benefiting from this dragging on much longer. I still prefer the Rockets deal but it is almost impossible to find out what they are offering. Any credible info on that?

Btw, does anyone know who that is in my avatar? You may give away your age if you know who it is. He goes back a ways. My high school team played against him when I was in school. One of the best shooters I ever saw.

I don't even want him, but any deal with Cleveland better return Waiters.

It won't. Cleveland supposedly doesn't even want to give up overrated Tristan Thompson... Just Varejao :lol:

The media refuses to acknowledge that it's a terrible trade for the Magic.

J-Mezzy · Post #18 » by **J-Mezzy** » Thu Jul 19, 2012 10:34 am

Hell no to Cleveland deal. They have to give nice young pieces or no deal. Why can't we do a three way with Houston instead?

Rick Mount. But if 1952 is your birth year, Rick would have been five years older than you (although I believe he played high school ball until he was 19).

Right, TD. I was a freshman when he was a senior. The guy was a scoring machine. He never got national player of the year award because he played when Alcindor and Pete Maravich played. Went to most all of his college games at Purdue. My dad was a season ticket holder. Did you ever see him play?
