The #1 pick looked like Charles Barkley against us the other night, lets not get carried away yet.

yea but he wont get as many opportunities on that team as oladipo will get on ours.

Once Jameer is traded, Dipo is going to get ALOT of burn.

Bennet mpg will be in the 20's whereas Dipo's will be in the mid-upper 30's

Well, I agree with that but who knows how it takes for either of those things to happen. I don't think Oladipo gets more than 32 mpg (average for the year) unless one of those two things happen within the two months of the season.

I say this because, by comparison, Lillard averaged 38 mpg since they had no bench. Once meer is gone Oladipo will get serious run. However, unlike lillard, Dipo can play the 1 or the 2, so let's say we trade both AA and meer and get a good pg in return, then oladipo plays a ton at sg since we have no back up there.

Sorry to jump on you or single you out (as a lot of people do this), but it's just a pet peeve of mine (American arrogance type thing). It just irks me when Americans jump on a foreign guys non-perfect but still understandable English while 90% of the "Natural Americans" don't speak or understand anything outside of their own.



*rant over* *apologies on pointing you out though".


Thx I almost got killed by the grammar police, as u can see , English isn't my 1st language and I was typing from my phone (Damn auto spelling)

Btw, u do speak French, Spanish and English fluently ;-)

No harm meant by it and I hope I didn't offend you. There are just too many young Americans that can't get that word right. I hear it and read it all day long. Again, sorry to point it out on you.


No prob, I don't mind at all

Harkless is really going to have to work on his passing ability if he's going to move to SG and survive Tobias being on roster.

How about lose vs loose? You would think sports fans would know the difference...

If nothing else it's cool to again realize that some of our strongest magic fans/posters our out of country. Being American I think Americans should at least know the only language they speak. Especially when other nationalities can speak it along with 2-3 others...

Who cares about spelling and grammar online? As long as you get the point that's all that matters.
