No it won't. Orlando has his bird rights. Otis will resign him.

Well, they have more than a year to work on it. He is under contract through next season at least. Then he has the opt out. Hopefully, he'll want to stay after that, but you just never know. Maybe you guys would make it a little easier if you stopped proposing trades.

No, we haven't. Reading with understanding is such a gift sometimes, you know.

That's a bit harsh, no?

1. harsh is the right word.
2. either a missed joke or some agenda relating to some previous issues.

Maybe I could smooth things over by taking him out for some pirogis?

You could. But each and every one of pierogis can read better than you, so you may get embarassed.

But they taste sooooo good.

I'd be too busy enjoying the meal to care much about my lack of reading comprehension.

So what's happened this season to make Turkoglu all of a sudden explode into a top level player?

I recall during all the free agency issues in the summer he was very expendable if the need arose. Now he's playing lights out. What changed?

imo - Both Hills gone, additions of $hard and $VG.
