    Expectations are different. But I agree in general, the hate on Meyers is pretty unreasonable.

    Freeland wasn't the 11th pick, which some people saying prior to the draft that Meyers wasn't worthy of the 11th pick.

    Yeah, I know. Just had to give you a bit of grief. Hopefully, some of the games have been worth watching.

    Freeland is just too small and too slow. But he tries hard and plays semi-decent defense.

    More money.

    Five years older.

    I don't care if he ate his wheaties. One of the worst signings we've had in years.

    I am really not understanding/seeing why you guys think Leonards D is so awful. I am watching him every play and he is playing decent. He keeps good position and bodies up well. He is not amazing by any means and has a lot of room for improvement, but he is actually demonstrating good defensive fundamentals. I do think his trying not to foul is hurting him overall though.

    Freeland might be the least athletic big man I've ever seen.

    Freeland is a fucking waste. It's like I put 5 mil on black and the dealer hit 0. There is absolutely no hope for us to get anything in return. I think everyone agrees on this

    Shit, I really wish we'd had Atlanta's draft. Bebe's good too.

    Everyone is the worst player ever when we're losing and the greatest player ever when we're winning.

    Oh, any of us watching this game are paying a pretty steep price.

    I'm trying to be positive about Leonard, but holy fuck if this three pointer shit continues into the regular season I'm going to lose all hope.

    So why do you keep starting threads speculating what we can get for him?
