A probably not to crazy of a connection but interesting to me and if nothing else probably means a good Gm\HC relationship

But when Parker returned to the NBA from europe (2X euro league MVP :o and all decade team member), he eventually ended up on the lebron lead Cavs before leaving for miami and started all 81 games, and then was still starting the next year when lebron returned as a member of the miami heat......in the game where the 19 win cavs upset the heat........ Well one of the assistant coaches on the cavs that year that told Lebron to shut the **** up..........That assistant coach



So atleast parker and Mose have known and worked with each other for over a decade.......Kinda cool

Hmm, it does feel like Parker and Mosley are cut from the same cloth. Good call.

The 7'3 300 lbs dude ( based on his unbelievable offseason regimen of always gaining 1 inch and 10lbs of muscle)?? Wait.. he is playing in Europe right? Our current GM has European ties... Franz is also European...

Incoming trade!!!

BTW... is it because we have Paolo and Franz( along with Suggs) that we aren't thirsty anymore for our rookies in SL practices? I mean.. at this time we probably have scrimmages where our rooks were showing out...now its crickets

Maybe its because many arent happy with our rookies and so they arent excited?

No idea really, personally i cant wait to watch those 2
Also see if Sotto is anything woth keeping as a 2 way, see if Houstan improved (really have high hopes for him) and personally i like Elijah Hughes coming out of 'cuse and thought he could play and would find a role, so seeing him on our summer league is kinda cool, hope he shows something and gets another chance in the NBA

Naaaah cmon, you forgot last season when Paolo wasnt our consensus #1 pick? We even had a poster who degected to okc cuz we didnt get Chet? Or 2 seasons back when majority were going WTF with the Franz pick?

I think its because we were starved for young fresh talent then. Now that we have them.. we arent as excited anymore....

Not surprising, Hammond is getting old

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

Very true, but even with Paolo, he's was the dark horse but he was still in everyone's top 3
Black had multiple posters here saying he's the one guy they hope we don't draft and got a lot of hate before and after the pick
And jett wasn't anyone radar and now there's political conspiracy theories on why he's a magic player today :lol:

I think what you're saying is definitely a factor.... We were starving for ANYTHING positive the past 5-6 years, but I think black\jett bring the rookies effects it as well

Lol TBF , theres a thread for receipts where a lot of posters are now saying they love Black. But yeah, that counteracts with the conspiracy theory in Jett.... this kinda is lile the Suggs draft where we unexpectedly got a guard with our 1st pick ( we were all thinkong of barnes kuminga giddy ) and a WTF michigan player in the 2nd... will they perform the same? ( 2nd pick is much better than our 1st pick ) we will see.

Back then we only had RJs unexpected Rookie award, the potential.of Cole and the solid play of Okeke. Now we have our Batman and Robin plus the improvement of Suggs... so i guess Black and Jett arent as important for.most of us here anymore...
