Dude, you are full of it. So just stop. You pick out one thing from all the things I said, pretend like it was my main and only point, then try to put me on the spot to argue about it? When it was never my point? GTFO. You've done this multiple times by now, so whatever your problem is with me, go talk to your shrink about it. Trying to pick fights over fake arguments you try to put in my mouth several times is not cool.

I never said that a two way guy would have necessarily made the differnce. I said we sould have tried 4-5 of those, see if anyone sticks. I also said (regarding this year) that we have at least tried them, but it's no biggie that they didn't work becouse they usually don't. But it doesn't hurt to try, and it could have made the difference, along with 1-2 vet min or euroleague big, who also should have been tried, those could have helped more likely, and the lack of the trying alltogether cost us the title. Guys were gettable, and we didn't get anybody. From the looks of it we didn't even try. If you really want examples, I give you one, but then be done with it, and hopefully done with you and your fake arguments trying to pick on me: Dedmon was home last year, we could have signed him for the vet min any time, but then MIami did - he contributed in the playoffs (against Milwaukee he even had a 20 point game iirc), and is still on that team.


Only problem with you was calling Jones 'lazy bum', the man who transformed this franchise. I even said in a recent exchange with RDR that you are a good poster in general, just looking from the negative side a bit too much like a few others, but it's your choice.

Fair enough, Dedmon is a good example, though we'll never know if they tried or not to sign him. It's a thread for a guy on a 2-way contract and you mentioned 2-way contracts a few times in your post, so was not completely sure if you really believe signing more of those mid-season would have improved greatly the chance for winning the title.

"He's still got Visa issues to handle before he gets here."

Suns officials said Lundberg will join the team in a couple of weeks as they officially signed him Saturday. Phoenix's regular season ends April 10 against Sacramento.

It doesn't make sense to signing him just for the last week of the regular season. Probably he has a team option on a two-way deal for next season?

Yeah likely some type of option for next year. Get him here now to get a little practice with the team then play in summer league for them and we'll see from there. Some on the internet seem intrigued by him.

What is expected of this guy?

Is this the Euro league's Booker ?

He seems really grounded, well spoken, and excited to take part. Here's to hoping he gets some meaningful run and can add to what we've got going on.
