    IF he really thought that. He has lost all credibility as a nba insider and writer.

    What an idiot

    you must have missed last season. when the thunder made their coaching change, durant was moved to small forward where he belongs.

    Yep, after starting 1 - 12, the Thunder wisely fired P.J. Carlesimo and replaced him with Scott Brooks. Brooks moved Durant to his natural position of small forward and his production took off. Durant remained at SF for the remainder of the season (69 games).

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Actually, he really only played out of position at shooting guard during his rookie season, under Carlisimo. After Carlisimo was fired early last season, Durant played the rest of the season at small forward and surely will continue to for the foreseeable future.

    Surprised you missed that! :devilwink:

    Also, the clock stops when you're fouled.

    The smart thing would've been to add in the following:

    "At 2 1/2, I have Brandon Roy, the guy who looks like nothing special as he just sort of wanders to the rim and dunks and somehow nobody stops him. In fact, he's so deceptive that I completely overlooked him in my original story. That's why I'm now penciling him in at 2 1/2. Thanks to all the regular readers who caught my....blah blah blah."

    You could actually pull that off and not look like a complete ass. To say you thought of him as a PG is moronic.

    LOL! The editor added a note:

    Jeez. Blazer fans are fucking harsh. Reminds me of how some fans went after Swirsky.

    This just gets better and better. :biglaugh: It's just too f'ing funny.

    Really, I don't see why anyone would be uber-outraged or spit venom all over these guys over it, to me it's just funny. But if no one had, I wouldn't be laughing right now.

    :cheers:
