    Waiters looks awful.

    Don't think the NOH-CHA game is being televised unfortunately.

    Yawn because it is a pre-season game in which winning the game is the least thing the NBA teams are concerned about.

    Championship NBA teams have lost preseason games against Euro teams. It doesn't mean anything. Your Euro fetish is disturbing.

    Well they did during the Olympics, but they sure don't during pre-season. Heck they don't even care if they win home pre-season games, and that is in front of thier own fans.

    That was my buddy, Fez. He also said "Lillard made him Illard". I wasn't too high on the Lillard pick either, but he looked awesome in summer league.

    Season isn't officially on until Mike Rice enjoys a shrimp cocktail on a team flight.

    Do you think Rice would do a Meet and Greet sometime? Or would he say too many things and get himself in trouble?

    Ask him for sure, maybe suggest he talk to Brian Wheeler for a feel for it, and then give his contact info Sly if he's okay with it.

    Everytime I see you sitting next to Rice on a plance, Rice always has this look of "How the hell do I always get stuck next to this guy?"

    I don't really see much of difference in Brandon from what we saw in 2010-2011. I'm cringing whenever he runs because I don't want his legs to buckle.

    Oooh he looked really good there. Good lift on the hook shot.

    Brandon 13 pts....... not bad. I think as long as they monitor his minutes and hold him out of back to backs, he'll do fine. But knowing Brandon, he will never want to sit.

    I love his Euro fetish. It really turns me on. This board needs expertise in such things. NBA teams used to have too much pride to lose to a foreign team. Rasta, do you have a list of all such losses in history?
