"Y'all" :o

I usually stay elusive and don't take a stance on anything so I cant be blamed for being wrong or fcking up. I haven't been married this long without learning a thing or two. One of those things is refraining from holding strong opinions it saves my azz from being held accountable.

For bullying purposes, we’re gonna call you a kemba defender

those would be two ok options. Just need some wings that can play a little defense and make an open shot.

He hit 40% of his 3's last year and usually is at least a passable defender....we could do worse.

Let’s not rewrite history here. Majority of this board thought those guys would be major upgrades since they allegedly addressed shooting. Me and sham wanted Derozan that summer instead.


I'm not suggesting you two didn't have the same opinion on that topic. I just don't remember both those moves being wildly supported as major upgrades. I certainly wasn't a fan of that offseason at all.

There are always supporters/detractors of moves. I just don't recall those two moves (or that offseason being wildly supported by a majority).

I know kemba was definitely getting a lot of love for sure

Deuce got to be on "everybody got paid so I got to get paid on that next contract" so I 100% expect him to try to get as many minutes as possible.

Kemba probably more than Fournier because the contract wasn't egregious and he was replacing Elfrid Payton at the time (who I think was the most hated player on the board at the time).

I still think a lot of people saw putting Kemba and Fournier next to RJ and Randle (who already weren't good defenders) probably wasn't going to end well.

Anyways don't want to rehash too much of the past.

We went from

Kemba
Fournier
RJ
Randle
Noel

to

Brunson
Mikal
Hart
OG
KAT

what a time to be alive!

KAT needs to post up and get Horford in foul trouble. Once that's done, the path to the hoop will be there (Kornet/Tillman don't worry me).

I was pro-Kemba anti-Fournier. Quickly conceded on Kemba. I thought he had gas and he didn't.

:lol: My god this is true. Right around the time I joined these forums I interned with the NYS DEC. One day, one of the other employees drove me down to the facility where they worked on our vehicles to pick up a truck. He explained to me that it had been there for a few months for something minor like an oil change. I was baffled. How could that take so long? Well, the word was that the supervisor hated the lead mechanic down there and the lead mechanic figured that as long as he didn't take any initiative to do anything that he wasn't specifically tasked to do he couldn't get fired since there would be no cause. So he just didn't do anything and they'd eventually have to instruct him directly or put somebody else on the task.

This troubled me deeply. I just didn't understand how somebody could be that neglectful to principle to avoid conflict. Then I got married. Now I understand. You can't do anything wrong if you don't do anything.
