Scary Rebounding Stat

oh and one more thing.

i never said rebounding wasn't important, i said if you want a team to rebound better you should have a coach and system that emphasizes it. the Suns entire gameplan sets them up to be outrebounded.

and as far as playoff success. i think this is the Suns best chance, the Mavs, and Spurs are considerably worse and while there are many improved teams, I don't think they have caught up to the Suns yet.

and in conclusion, if you want comment on a dialogue, it doesn't matter how much you know about basketball if you misinterpret the conversation.

Chill with the personal insults walkingart. You're taking it way too personally.

I agree that at the current state of the league if the Mavs and Spurs stay the way they are right now. We have the edge. Even with our deficiencies at rebounding. I think Amare will step up here soon and put up Dwight Howard like numbers. But that is my opinion.

personal insults?

should i not attack someones inability to comprehend or read? I guess that is debatable.

if you are going to quote me as saying, "the worse the teams we play, the more offensive rebounds we are going to give up," and follow that up with the comment, "That makes no sense at all. Poor shooting teams would have no effect on our offensive boards, it's on the other side of the court," be prepared to have your error in comprehension pointed out. there is nothing personal about it.

if your comment is in regard to calling Napoleon II, a "little corsican", it is not an insult but rather a synonym.

to the little corsican who can't follow a train of thought

it doesn't matter how much you know about basketball if you can't pass a reading comprehension test!

...be prepared to have your error in comprehension pointed out. there is nothing personal about it.

If it wasn't personal you wouldn't have directed the insults at him. If you continue to do it be prepared for me to point out that you will receive a warning.

If you want to talk about this any further PM me.

The guy who I think could flourish playing next to Stat is Stromile Swift. I imagine he'd be pretty cheap from the Griz right now since he's barely playing. He's another big I think we should bring in to help with the rebounding disadvantage.

ive thought that also, very athletic power player, i would definately give him time at C against teams like dallas, lakers etc, whilst using skinner against the shaqs, duncans etc

i would like him here and agree - he would definately be cheap, he just got suspended for intimidating ivaroni though, thats not good

^^^Low IQ, horrible offensively, struggle in rebounding, and his man-defense makes Amare look like Kurt Thomas, and he's never in the right spots on the court, and did I say he has low IQ? Just because he's an athletic freak doesn't mean he would fit here and help us in rebounding. Waste of space, waste of talent.

I think Stro would be a great addition to the team, haven't watched him play much tho. How are his hands? Mike D won't play anyone who can't contribute on the offensive end, and if he can't catch Nash's passes he has no chance of putting any points on the board!

sidenote to KJ7, I tried to PM you, it said it didn't go through. for the record, I completely disagree with you, however I'll drop it, and I even edited my posts.
