His range will only increase as he gets more experience, but as it is he draws defenders in and so opens up space for the C's perimeter shooters. He's freakishly efficient, goes out and sets picks, is a lob man, can clean up and put away other players' misses and is a great passer. He is very much a positive on both sides of the game already and still improving rapidly.

I guess the last game put a stop to all the Timelord is better than Gobert talk.

Usually the trade side discussions run their course if we just let them die. If it gets too horrible, we can move some posts around, but ironically, you are helping perpetuate it in this thread.


Oh, come on. I requested that privately, and you personally turned the request down.

And sure enough, it quickly escalated to a post advocating blowing up the whole team. I can only conclude that you're OK with such posts appearing in every thread in the forum.

That's your prerogative, of course, and perhaps you have reasons that would change my mind (and if you do you have no obligation to bother sharing them). But I currently think it's a lousy policy to adopt. And whether or not I'm right in general, it's certainly a lousy stance from the standpoint of my personal enjoyment and blood pressure.

Toodles for now. Ban me if you feel like it; I'll barely notice.

You're Out of Line.
Straighten up.

Are you a native English speaker?

I ask because:
-- I think you've mentioned that you currently live in a foreign (to the US) country.
-- You capitalize unusually (by modern English standards).
-- Your post was shockingly rude.

I don't want to react fully to the rudeness if the post wasn't made in your native tongue.

Cambridge was my leave home and go to college town. I.e., best period in my life, or close to it.

As to other -- if you're right, and I don't much doubt you, I'll check back here after Parl steps down as a mod. I've been too old to be spoken to that way since (probably) long before he was born.

I feel you, man. Would definitely welcome that. It's why I left this forum if you recall (I don't expect you/anyone to, just saying).

My mom says Cardulo's survived covid. Definitely gonna grab a slice of Armando's and pinnochio's when I'm back too. Miss Harvard sq, it's complete commercialization withstanding.

What would you offer Rob as an extension this off-season? I would go 4/70 at the absolute max. Anything over that and it’s let’s talk again in a year.

Fencer, you need to stop. IDK what is going on with you.
But, this has gone way past the Subject of this Thread.

I'll leave it at that.

You've insulted Members, Backseat Modded, like crazy.
And argued with 2 Mods. OK. You got your wish.
