    That's right - I was trying to figure out a way to finagle a draft pick away from HOU to give us 3 picks.

    Leonard is not a stereotypical Big White Stiff who really knows the game....

    he's a Skilled Superathletic Big who has no clue about the game.

    Hopefully, it'll all work out in the end, but I'm not taking that for granted.

    What's your point? You said you wanted Lamb before, during, and after the draft. If he ever amounts to anything, you can say "I told you so" til the cows come home. He hasn't done shit, what's the point of you spewing your opinion about him over and over. Just shut up, seriously.

    That's an idiotic and racist opinion, so it's okay to hate it.

    I think you are taking this a tad out of context. I was asked who I would have taken instead of Leonard and I answered Lamb.

    And don't all of us spew our opinions with most every post?

    I feel like someone is singing Mary Had a Little Lamb over and over again and it's starting to drive me insane.

    It was simply asked of me, so I answered. I didn't bring it up

    best thing to do would be to whine about it some more. Racist? psh.
    If I ask you to name the top 10 players in the league, and you name nothing but black guys, are you being racist by not including any whites in the list? If I ask you to go top 25, and your list is over 90% black, are you a racist for those opinions?

    No.. But if I were to say I picked them partly because they were black, it would be racist, yes.

    Does noticing that all of those top players are black make you racist?

    if you said "we should never draft black people in the lotto", would that be racist?

    I think if you felt you noticed a trend of blacks primarily sucking at basketball, then no.
