Paul has played in 78% of games in his career.

Holiday has played in 79% of games in his career, while being 5 years younger than Paul, not 6, as you claimed.

How bout that?

I'll take my chances with Holiday's health over Paul's. How bout that. I like them both. Paul SHOCKED me staying healthy last year. Maybe he can do it again. I would take my chances on Holiday.
As for age difference I knew it was between 5-6 years. It is only 5 years and one month. Sorry.
I don't like it when people exaggerate age differences or ages. I should have been more careful.


Please don’t send me PMs.

Thanks.

You could have sent me a PM for this rather than publicly posting it. I was trying to be polite. I see that you don't do polite. So I'm done with you. Ignore time.

I feel bad for him, the team's lack of spacing and overall terrible construction is doing immeasurable harm to his development (and I say this as someone who is not particularly high on him as a prospect).

I really thought I remembered a day at the end of the first Ryan partial season, that summer they parted ways when Rosas was making changes. Maybe it was just rumors then.

Wow Cole Anthony and Killian Hayes looked abysmal. Also Barrett and Coby White are so overated.

Barrett wound up doing ok. I'm excited to see the rookies I really want to see Ball.

So glad to hear Wall looking good. I am pulling for him, but not expecting him to make it back.
