    Goodwin is a solid defender and a great athlete. Maybe his shot comes around with the confidence and freedom Stotts gives his players. It's a low risk, high reward signing. I think he'll stick.

    Last guard we brought in with 6 letters first name, 7 letters second name was okay for us.

    And that is why you get my respect. I might disagree with most of your thoughts on skill sets and players, but you stick to it: a man of conviction.

    Not by conviction, he really is the type of player I said we should bring and I really think he's a very good signing.

    Now with him, project pat and Napier we have enough backups for the guard positions

    Now I think we're set. We could still use a package of Davis, Aminu and Vonleh to bring another player but we could also keep them and have them earn their minutes. I think between the rookies Swanigan would get more minutes while Collins would play less the first year, I think (or at least hope) Meyers would play better. I think the Crabbe trade not only saved us money but opened up playing time in the SF position and our backcourt is stronger with the addition of Goodwin. So I think we're set

    Neil seems o have a knack for finding diamond in the rough type players that are low risk high reward type guys that turn out to be pretty good pick ups. I am not super impressed with his drafting frankly, but on signings like this he seems to do a pretty good job so I am intrigued by this signing.

    Denny, since you own this dump, do you have any proof of attendance dropping off around here lately because of me. Do you do like annual retention reports? Wondering if you can see of people aren't joining because of me? Guess there are a TON of people sending each other private messages about how I'm bringing this place down. Could you post some stats on here showing us membership info and if traffic here has slowed recently.
    If so, I'll leave and never come back.

    Comeon HCP don't get extra sensitive, everyone loves you. White guys just have peculiar ways of expressing themselves ;)

    This dude is always fun to sign in Nba 2k because he's young and has a lot of potential (at least in the game).

    I'll nerd this out for you real quick, and act like it means anything.

    Just for fun: Since it's offseason, traffic will be slow... what that means is: Correlation does not mean causation.

    So, in summation: Hispanic Caus(ation) panic does not equate here.

    Love you, boo boo.

    You officially have the record for acting like a rookie the longest. I would actually really love to meet you and see what you are like in real life. There's no way this isn't an act.

    What you have a beef with my boy strenuus? he's aight, likes to be an opposition but he inspires you to get better. Like the reviewers that didn't accept my research on Aids and made me do it that much better
