    I don't know this nerd language that you are speaking in. Can any of the basement dwellers here fill me in?

    They have different styles of offense. Favors is more inside and rim protector on D. RA is more of distance shooter, and can play some D. He is underrated. Not great, but underrated. He is not a banger and gets muscles out against big 4s and 5s.
    Like I said, if they wanted to switch to the 3 & D model, RA is a better fit. and with Gordon leaving and the team re-building, it's a good time to switch if you are going too.

    NOT saying Utah wants RA, just was an possible. By no means am I a BB expert or run a team. Just a discussion.

    Anderson is a fine role player, but he's drastically overpaid... just like Evan Turner. But I'd much rather have Turner at 17.5 per year than Anderson at 20.

    You too? I have a vagina birthmark on my back. As long as we never meet and stand back to back, we should be ok. I would hate to cause your to change and me get a weird wet spot on me.
    TMI?

    I read a 38-page thread on clutchfans and came away convinced that not a single poster on that forum has ever heard of the Ted Stepien rule, let alone knows who Stepien was and why that rule exists.

    traded all Cavs 1st rd picks away for 5 or 6 consecutive yrs? I knew the rule before the history. Read the history about a month ago when I heard it had a name. The other bad thing people keep bringing up using Kings as a 3rd team. Not realizing Perry came from the Kings so they can't trade for a year.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Now he has to start posting in the OT forum.

    What are your political views, Chupacabra? Your religious views? No, go ahead, just shout them out. You're part of the family, now...

    I learned a good lesson from my pops.

    Never talk about Politics, Religion, or other men's wives at work.

    I use that for forums also. :dupnoevil:

    Ugh. There are no experts or pseudo experts at clutchfans. Most of them weren't even around the last time Houston won a title and one idiot actually said "he's not a Drexler fan. He's a Blazers fan." Geez.

    Yeah. Multiple people seemed to think you were using "drexlerfan" as some kind of deep cover as a Rockets fan and then it slowly dawned on them that Drexler had played for other teams. That was probably the best part of your stint there.

    the guys that got after you are not the ones i was talking about. They did come at you hard the 1st time. Not really sure what that was about, but it fed on itself. Now you do it intentionally, which you know, so ... what happens happens.
    I was a little surprised the mods didn't step up the 1st time, but there are not that many of them.

    That is probably true. He played at UH, then Portland, then the rockets. We try not to hold that against him. /s
    Like Hakeem playing for Vancouver. ... Never happened.
