WB, here are the facts: You've maxed out your team's potential and it's still only the 7th or 8th best roster in the league.

By the way, Jordan, I'd like to veto the two trades between WB and Skai.

Hmm, poor IL management and injuries have led to another disappointing start for my boys.

Oh well. Good week BWW, I'll get you next time.

If you think he made bad deals I would think you would like them since you seem to take glee in his misfortune. Unless, you are actually looking out for his better interest.

Don't look now but YS is actually shutting out Sly 9-0.*





*Of course Sly hasn't had a player play yet.

I feel bad for ham actually. It's impossible to win against anyone with so few games played.

Is Brandon Jennings the unanimous "sleeper pick of the year" so far?

Not sure if he was a sleeper. If I had a top five pick he'd have been on my team. As it was I tryed to tried for him prior to the start of the season with no luck. :cry:

I think a lot of us are kicking ourselves for not taking Jennings, myself especially, since I had the 4th pick I think. I actually did look at Jennings but decided his summer league stats probably weren't sustainable and he was probably closer to a high-ceiling project like DeRozan. I still think Jonny Flynn will be a borderline top 50 guy but boy did we all miss big on Jennings. Props to sly for not falling for Thabeet or Rubio.

There are a lot of surprises so far in this early season. I owe WB an appology on his trade for Hibbert. Too bad he shipped him away just as he was developing into a real quality player. But it's not like Duncan is a stiff.

I'm thrilled with what I got over the summer in Galinari (thanks Man), Chandler and Battier, and not terribly heartbroken at losing Artest.

BTW, I know I've discussed a deal involving him before, but if you're interested, Josh Smith is still available.

To be fair Carl, #4 was a tough spot to land in. After we all knew Rubio was not coming over, the top 3 (Griffin, Harden, Evans) went to plan, and possibly in order. I still think Flynn will be a good play once he gets accustomed with the NBA game a bit more. Of course you traded him for Iguodala, who has many prime years left.

I think Harden is the biggest reach of the bunch. Most people who followed the Pac-10 thought he was overrated then, to say nothing of his lofty draft status.
