With all do respect Raj, I don't think you should make the next thread. Look what happened when you didn't make this one! I say let eyriq make it to keep the good vides going.

I saw DJ apologize to you earlier. You called it yesterday, and say you have an in with Dwight's bro. I am sorry for hating on you.

wait what? I didn't apologized to him. I just found out about this guy a few pages. lol... are thinking of someone else? :wavefinger:



Oh I misread then, my bad. Saw you repost his comment from late last night, kinda skimming through all the posts to keep up and assumed there was an apology in there

I re-post a lot of people's comments if I agree with them :lol: All good though

But yeah, it must have been someone else who apologized to carter... i'm still behind on that whole backstory from last night. maybe someone can bring me up to speed.

I'm soooooo confused :lol: ... what happened? i legit just found out about this carter guy like 2-3 pages ago. Never talked to him before.

I reported Carter for posting this early this morning. I thought he was trolling. That's all to the story really. Carter claims to have connections with Dwight's brother? Is that correct Carter?

Assuming Dwight is here for another year, you have to seriously consider it. As much as I like Ryno, Smith brings some fantastic defense and even better rebounding, plus he's a guy that probably convinces Dwight that the two of the, should recruit another allstar caliber player to Orlando.

JJ is the tougher call for me - he can easily fill Hedo's role of playmaker, plus is a hustle player and a leader. If that was the only way to get it done, we probably do it, but it's a tough call.

Now, insert JRich in place of JJ and it's a definite yes.

Right now? Probably not. They're both playing really well - they've been our 2nd and 3rd best players all year - and the team actually seems to be gelling. If we do want a postseason run, I say keep them for now.

In the summer? Ask again, I might have a different answer.

don't even pin that stuff on me lol... come on man, every thread had good news and bad news... it's the day before the deadline... i don't believe in that superstitious or jinx crap... i started this and i'm going to finish this... none of the news reported today is official yet; the next minute it could be bad news, then good news, then bad news... it's just a cycle.

i asked eyriq to make these threads if i can't make them btw... he's made two thus far (part 9 and part 19) ... he's done a good job, thanks again eyriq.

Oh okay... now I understand what's going on... peepeelafritz probably meant you, not me.

Damn we're split down the middle on a J.Smoove trade huh?... Hey, atleast we know we'd beat ATL if we did it.

The plus about smith is he can play 2 positions effectively... I would probably trade anderson but I think I want JJ to help distribute the ball

YES! Where do I sign


This. I would rather have the Allstar. Plus, I would rather have money tied to JSmoove than resigning JJ and Ryan.

Not sure if we would. If we make a trade where we get rid of one and not the other I would most definitely do it.

JSmoove + Dwight would dominate defensively, and wreck havoc in the paint. I'd do it.

I won't get excited until he signed the papers. Nothing is final until then.

I'd trade Ryno, no problem. Honestly, anyone outside of Dwight & J.J. right now I'd trade for Smith

Once Dwight opts in, we can trade him to Toronto.
