Are you taking bets that Blake will play 30 minutes if he suits up? I can see into my crystal ball that the rookies will play less than 20 minutes too.

Why would I be taking bets? I’m not the one who said I knew what Casey is doing. If you think you do then obviously you should be making lots of money off the games. Are you?



Yeah I do know what Casey is doing. You are telling me I dont. Or that its impossible to know.

So put your money up, I know what Casey is doing. Blake is playing 30 minutes tonight. You saying that no one knows what Casey will do. Its a mystery. We should shut up. But everyone knows what Casey is doing. He did it last year playing McRae starter minutes picking the guy up off the street.

Please just stop with your stuff in here Manocad. We ALL know what Casey will do. There isnt a bet on it.

Like I said, why would I bet on what Casey will or won't do? I don't know what he's doing so there's no need for me to put money up because I don't have a claim to prove. I never said anyone should shut up; you can make any claim you want about how much you know about what Casey is doing. All I'm saying is that if you're not betting on it you're not exactly convincing anyone that you know what he's doing. Or maybe you're independently wealthy and don't like easy money.

The title of this thread is "What is Casey doing?" so obviously people are going to claim they know what he's doing, and others are going to claim something different, like me, which is that yes, unless you're inside Casey's head or talking to him personally it is impossible for you to know what he's doing. You can form a theory based on what you see but that's all it is--a theory. By all means, if it makes you feel better to believe you've got Casey's intentions completely figured out, have at it. But I'm not going to agree with you.

Him getting minutes is on the coaching staff.

Him being on the roster was to match salaries with Luke

Better the devil you know than the devil you don't know might fit here, especially as we race to a bottom 3 finish!

So Syverdis is here because of his agent was/is managements son. McGruder because of Weaver. McGruder played in garbage minutes over all the rookies in a blow out loss. Makes sense. Guy didnt play the entire season, gotta get him out there instead of Bey, Svi, Syverdis.

Better get a new crystal ball, Nostradamus. :lol:

Thats the best you have Manocad. To bad the Pistons were down 25 points in the 3rd quarter.

Plumlee and Wright played 47 **** minutes last night.

Casey decided that even though the Pistons have 5 PGs on the team, we're playing our 15th man in McGruder.

Wright, DRose, Hayes, Saben Lee, Frank Jackson.

So Weaver must be a moron. We used up BOTH of our 2-ways to sign PGs, but instead of playing them, we get Wright for 47 minutes.

And McGruder coming into play part time PG with Josh Jackson.

Is this part of Weaver's 5d chess to help us lose games?

That's all I need. You decided to thump your chest about what you claim you know and you were wrong, which proved me right. Here endeth the lesson.
