Are you just happy for the kid? My wife just loved his play and if he crashed and burned post Celts, I don't think she could have gotten over it.

I think he and Big Al do a lot for DA's trading credibility.

I hope we beat them in the playoffs, but I am glad he's doing well.

I know I am. I still have my DWest jersey hanging in the closet. He was definitely my favorite player when he was here. However, I can't wait until Ray is banging j's in his face come playoffs.

I always liked Delonte, although I'm glad how things ended up turning out. In the end, it's KG=1 ring, Delonte (and LeBron)=0, so can't complain! :lol:

I am happy for Delonte, especially after hearing the mental health issues he was dealing with earlier this season.

Now I know there's someone around here who isn't, but I don't name names...

I am happy he got his head fixed. He pouted way to often with us and didn't give a proper effort coming off the bench..

Wireeee Hanggaaaaa...lol...dwest was the funniest. I love the pre-game show the cavs did when Delonte hopped up into another players arms like a baby and posed...lmao...what a character.

I'm not happy for him. He's on the Cavs now and is an enemy. I liked his hustle when he was on the C's but he was too reckless and I don't find him funny at all. I can barely understand him.

LOL. I was wondering how many posts before you entered this thread.

I just wish TA hadn't gone down that year before The Summer. I believe the plan was to trade TA and keep Del. And the way TA was playing before he got hurt (while PP was hurt) I have no doubt Seattle would have taken him over West. Damn. I love'd me some Del West, but we are stuck with the gimmpy TA.

I miss Delonte's toughness and ability to play both guard spots efficiently. U hope Pruitt can develop into that kind of player. Though I gotta say, his new hair cut is awful.

I was a big delonte fan too, he brought some personality to the team. It's hard to find fault to with a guy who played as hard as he did.
