@NBAGuru: Royce White off bench for RGV last night: 28 pts, 9-16 FG, 9 reb, 6 ast, 4 stl, and a whopping +26. Nobody else on team was higher than a +7
Nice to see White finally playing better.

Only because of that trade comment you made about Wade on their board about 4 years ago!

Nah, it was more complicated than that. My brain doesn't work as well as it used to, but if I remember correctly, Flash3 was moving to the Charlotte area or something like that and was here incessantly asking all sorts of questions about the area, talking about how he was gonna start following the Bobcats, asking some newbie-type questions about the team, etc. Everyone was nice to him and answered his questions.
This was around the same time we were a decent team and had people showing up every day with comical trade offers (2017 second rounder for Wallace!). After a good game by Augustin I think it was, I posted a joke trade offer on the Miami board about trading Augustin for Wade. I think I got banned a few days for it. I can't remember if Flash3 did the banning or if he just defended it. Either way, **** him. It came off as showing a new cop around town and answering all his questions and then having the ****head ticket you for going three miles over the speed limit.
I think the few days I was banned lasted about as long as Flash3's jaunt on the team's bandwagon. Good riddance

Re: Off Topic V
I swear tsherkin's just on my case now, I just got banned from the GB for "evading the language filter" with this: "one line turned a very good article into a very $h!++y one." Something I've seen dozens of times on the GB. It's obvious he's just hacked off at me and was looking for something that was just halfway out of line.

Re: Off Topic V
It's pretty simple then.
Don't go halfway out of line. Don't go 1/64 out of line. Don't go out of line at all.
Then he wont have any reason to ban you.

I believe what you're saying Slam is we have to "walk the line?"
@ Biz I'd just stick around our board for a while mate.

Outside of here and the GMAT game on the Trade board, I'm not even posting for a while, not like I can post on the GB anyway.

Re: Off Topic V
We should all use the same avatar that tsherkin does, that way he'll get confused and be like "I can't ban myself?"

Re: Off Topic V
Why.why. WHY do I torture myself with WFNZ? The drive guys have gone full prisoner of the moment on the Burke hype. suggesting we pick him as high as number one overall, and then trade Kemba for Ellis...
even for them, this is a new level of stupid.

Re: Off Topic V
Also don't know where to put this, going through some old Kemba threads through google and I found the big mama, the thread that started it all.
Enjoy and have a laugh but this is not to stir anything up, please do not mention this and just read through.
Our guys were pretty accurate in hindsight.

I couldn't help but chuckle when I thought about Toronto drafting Knight. Otherwise, pretty good job, Sikko.

i didnt realize couples had fallen so far the last few holes yesterday. i cut off the coverage with about 30 mins left. wow. he really fell apart on the back 9. shame. he does that every year recently it seems. old man just cant hang for 72 holes. if the masters was a 36 hole tournament couples would finish top 5 every year.
would be cool to see langer make a big run today. also rooting for scott. he deserves a major after that meltdown at the british last year.
