    Yea it reminds me of when Martell Webster waited to meet Ray Allen. That worked out pretty well didn't it? :NOTMARIS:

    It's a lot easier to bring the positive news in when you have realistic expectations for the team. Until certain changes are made, I don't think we'll advance too deep into the playoffs..until then-I just enjoy the personalities we have on this team, whether it's Armon, Patty, or Wesly.

    I do think once they get adjusted to the system completely, Aj and Wesley will be a force off of the bench. They both posses the will to get better and intelligence to find the ways to bring out the best in their talents. Who better to ask then Steve Nash, right?

    6'3" with a body like his and speed that he has. Add with that the desire to be great. I think he's going to be a great ball player in a couple years.

    I counter with....

    I think he took the wrong notes with the turnover king in the NBA over the past two years

    Great stuff. Armon seems like a guy who gets 'it' and appreciates the position he's in.
