No. I didn't post here. Unless here means this website. I only used my other id to post on other parts of realgm. They didn't post in the same threads or really same boards except 1 post.

Maybe we (as in Magic message board posters on Real GM) could have a contest on topics like we have on the game threads -- and someone keeps track of who has the most pages of posts on one side of a topic.

Funny that this came up.

Come on devin, don't leave us in suspense for so long!!! What's the dealio?

Some more writers summing it up for you guys who still dont get it...

Magic: We get why the Magic traded for Lewis; we just don't understand why GM Otis Smith felt the need to dole out a six-year, $118 million contract. Sure, Lewis' shooting range opens the interior for Dwight Howard, but the Magic potentially choked off their future salary-cap space for a player more complementary than main dish. Wouldn't the $9 million trade exception have been better spent in acquiring a player like Mike Bibby, who would have bolstered the Magic's shaky point-guard play while also addressing their perimeter scoring needs? The Magic are better, but they'll need a good bit more creativity than a big check to keep improving.

Its hard to argue with 40-23.

GOD I CANT WAIT UNTIL THE PLAYOFFS!!!!!

[Potterman]

Its hard to argue with 40-23.

If you ask me with our big 3 we should have gone 82-0 without losing in the playoffs. Even then if you ask me we should fire all of our ballboys just to make sure.

Hey you guys are the ones looking delusional...Not me.

[maginno]

Now dont tell me I've been had!!!!!

Yes. You have been but not by who you think. Its just a psychological ploy. If you have two or three people agreeing on a subject that you disagree with its practically board policy of some to accuse them of being the same person with different Ids in violation of board rules. Helps to marginalize an argument that you can't break down on rational merits.

Use to it - except for the boredom factor. You can however always tell it s false when theres a mod in the thread. If the person was impersonating I am sure there is a way to check IP addresses. That is of course if you don't have the good and common sense to see the writing styles are entirely different.

Some people do. some people don't and frankly some people don't even believe it themselves. they just throw it out there for slandering purposes.

Yup, 40-23 is one big delusional fantasy.

I would rather have Shard than 2 Mike Bibby's. Terrible terrible article.

Matty, why is it you seem to go AWOL whenever the Magic are win only to pop up eventually when we lose a game. At least this has us seeing a lot less of you these days. But then, I guess maybe I am just being delusional.

[NEM]

yeah 40-23 is very delusional...how could we miss that, we are such morons...whatever n00b
