AFM -- you know... if you just installed the flashlight on your forehead, you wouldn't have to make any extra effort to get it up where it does you all that good. Am I right?

Actually, you are right. Sometimes I write boringly long numbers-based posts (just finished one in fact), it can't be denied, I gotta plead guilty. Whereas you are rarely if ever boring. Almost always entertaining. And I kind of like being the "butt" (hey, get your head outta there!) of your jokes. :wink:

Hire PIF as the negotiator. He will bore the other GMs to death. "Fine, you can have Cousins for Porter and a protected 2nd rounder, just promise to never call me again."


The NBA is filled with young coaches and some young GM's too, I have zero doubt that a couple of guys on this board would do a better job of running this FO, just read the pre-draft and FA threads.

It is mind-boggling that the off-season organizational goal was to play up-tempo, yet they kept the oldest front court in the NBA. Grunfeld is old and stale, someone needs to remove him from the shelf.

Its insane how the 2 best players this season, Stephen Curry and Kawhi Leonard, are two players that Ernie passed up to get scrubs. Ricky Rubio, top 20 this season, another one who was passed up.

We have way too many Grunfeld threads going. If you'all don't mind, I'm gonna lock this and we'll move Ernie-related discussion to part 2 of Millie's original "I love EG" thread.
