    I don't like being called a liar. Not sure how trivial that is

    Yeah that’s actually pretty fair. Even the team construction is pretty similar - reliant on guards productivity, average elsewhere. Blazers have more depth but it all evens out with the fact that they have better small forwards (Porter and Oubre). Both teams have jammed their salaries too meaning they can’t really do anything with the roster they have.

    Sigh... Man my bad. I really wasn't trying to imply that. It was more said in jest.

    More importantly, what is the most points scored by an American in your league down there? The Boomerang Legue or whatever it is? Like who has captured the most dingos?

    Don't disagree, but as someone eyeing retirement in 11 years and thinking about snowbirding, Austin seems very appealing in February.

    Strictly my personal experience but I thought San Antonio had far more going for it than Austin. It just seemed less dense and easier to get around in. And of course it has the Riverwalk (a genius idea if there ever was one). Plus it’s a fairly short drive to Austin when you need an Austin fix........I could definitely see SA as a “snowbird” destination.

    I fear the Raptors will get swept if they lose tonight, but that's just me.

    You implied that they wouldve struggled with New Orleans too and that they got an easy matchup with OKC that we wouldve won too.

    Raptors really laying an egg at home. They're more like the Blazers than I thought!
