    My guess is no, but then again I thought about all we'd be able to trade Felton for was a bag of sweaty gym socks -- if we threw in some money -- miracles do happen.

    I think Lamb could be a 20ppg scorer in the same token as a guy like Kevin Martin. I think Leonard has the potential to be an AS Center. Much more valuable.

    Has Diebler even made a shot? This guy doesn't look good at all.

    Now who's being unrealistic? I think Leonard will be a solid starter, but an All-Star? I thought you were above that :devilwink:

    After the 1st game we were ranting and raving. The 2nd game, well were going to regret not picking Lamb.

    I agree. Nice to hear Smith is being aggressive, but unless something drastically changed, the best we should hope from Smith is some decent play as a back up PG.

    SL can make a lot of players look real good . . . but it is better to look good in SL than bad. Was hoping to hear Babbit eating up SL, what I'm reading isn't good.

    How many legit 7 footers are there? I don't think its far-fetched to think he can be an AS at all.

    Is E Will still injured? I saw him on the bench. Why isn't he out there?

    Lillard is in love with that three.

    One thing I haven't seen much of, does he have a good mid-range game? Something he should definitely work on if he doesn't. That was one thing that made BRoy so great was his pull ups and fade aways.
