    As the bit on ESPN goes, "Come on man!!"

    A team that old was bound to have injuries. Even without injuries, it was a train wreck waiting to happen.

    Fuck yeah! I was pissed we matched Batum's offer sheet. I think I've openly admitted I am glad I was proven wrong though. :D

    I just see all caps as a bad idea. Not as bad as cursing a move in a title thread like "Harrison FUCKING Barnes" but bad none the less.

    I said 32, which is likely to be a couple games shy of correct.

    True, but if you read on, you would understand my concern and even a comment saying I really hope I'm wrong on this one. And to be honest, it's still a concern. Thank God RR7 was right about Lillard, because we would be in a world of shit if our #2 option was shooting 42% from the field. ;)

    In the end, I was very open with me being dead wrong. I think I started my "I love to be proven wrong" comments starting game 5 of the season.

    I read the entire thread, but am not going to read every thread. Just my stance on all caps.

    Half his shots are from 3, so it is not that bad. Add in other categories he is contributing, assists standing out to me, and I still have no problem with the deal.

    Lillards progress has no bearing on whether this was a good deal or not.
