Defending Twin and RJ was also always against positive analysis</p> </p>

Anyway I'm not sure what You mean by "honest opinion" since you seem to relish being a disingenuous contrarian

Don't beleive Cpawfan, he's the same guy who beleives in Mateen Cleaves. he also wanted the Nets to draft bellinelli.</p>

I've seen cpaw with his airbrushed shirts of Cleaves and AJ Granger.</p> </p> Of course, he'd want the Nets to draft Belinelli, it's because he wears make-up, they have a lot in common.</p>
