    Unfortunately, I'm watching Pangos and the Canadian team fuck up Team USA right now, and I caught an interesting fact about Kelly Olynyk. I knew his pops was a respected Canadian coach, but according to the ESPNU announcers, apparently Kelly Olynyk's father cut Steve Nash from the Canadian Junior National Team when Nash was a teenager.

    I don't know if that says more about Olynyk's father or Steve Nash. I mean, how many Canadian teens could have really been better than Steve Nash in high school?

    I really think Steve Nash's legend has grown far too much as a result of Mike D'Antoni and the SSOL offense.

    His body probably hadn't matured much yet. I mean look at what CJ McCollum looked like in the beginning of high school.

    Shit I remember seeing Dunleavy as a Jr in high school and he looked like a pipsqueak that had no business being on the court.

    Just caught a little interview and there's just something that makes me want to root for this kid. He's fun to watch and seems like a good player. I doubt he will be a star, but I also doubt he will flame out.

    Because were NBA fans. He's one of (if not the best) the best rookies. You got the concept of this board a little confused. Its NBA hoops first, politics second.

    Correction. It's trolling first, NBA hoops second.

    You're cute, Zags. You know, you sell being obtuse so well, I'm almost inclined to believe it.

    Trolling?

    I was trolled by almost the entire board when I started this thread.

    Tempted to give Zags his props on this one. Its slowly looking like I'll be wrong - but not wrong enough that we should've traded Aldridge for him. I did, however, alter my "he is worthless" prediction eventually, at some point in this thread.

    Leonard averaged 10/8/1.5 bpg in the Vegas summer league last year, and didn't get 6 fpg like Olynyk did as the primary scoring option for Boston this summer.

    I'll be LOL at Olynyk's defense this year for a 22-win team.
