Thanks for the thread, VCW. 5th overall pick here we come, baby! Actually, we probably can't do worse than the Raptors. If only we had sucked sooner rather than later.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AnimeFANatic:</div><div class="quote_post">Or even better, a buzzer beating facial teabag on Dampier. One can hope...</div> He'd haveto jump from the bench because Dampier just plain sucks and Avery knows it. He probably won't be in during cruch time, I'm sure hes happy though, more money and less work.
Dampier IS overpaid a lot. But not as overpaid as Foyle. Foyle is just waste of space on the court. Reason why Monty stresses Diogu's rebounding as a problem is because FOYLE can't grab a rebound to save his life. And we can't have both Murphy and Diogu on court. Murphy makes up for Foyle's lack of ability to do anything, especially rebounding. If we had a center that could grab rebounds, we'd have Ike in the game...
Gawd, I don't which I feel more strongly about: How glad I am that Dampier sucks crap and we didn't sign him, or how sick I feel about having signed Adonal Foyle to Shaq-money. Hmm... nah, it's a no-brainer. I'm going to go hurl now.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AnimeFANatic:</div><div class="quote_post">Monster block on Dirk by Ike!</div> That was nasty, I'm surprised they didnt just randomly call a foul on Ike for being a rookie and blocking the almighty Dirk's shot. I loved the following sequence too where Monta passed it behind the back to Pietrus who passed it behind his back to Ike who got fouled and almost got the 3 point play. The future looks bright...
Man, Foyle had one of his trademark point blank dunk misses Why is Foyle in the game and Diogu out? Monty, you're a GENIUS! *edit Now with Foyle still in the lineup doing practically nothing but taking the oxygen out of the stadium the Mavs are up 5.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Rudeezy:</div><div class="quote_post">I'm glad Monta and Ike are playing extremely well, especially on National TV.</div> I'd rather someone else play well on National TV, now GMs are gonna be trying to get us to put Ellis or Diogu in trades. At least Murphy's looking like a poor man's Dirk tonight.
Golden State's bench > The Dallas Mavericks bench GS's bench has like 43 to Dallas's bench's 11. GG so far.
