    HCPeezy,

    You're coming up on 30,000 posts in a couple weeks. Are you gonna throw a party? Maybe rent out the Florida Room for a little shin dig?

    Let's see if Denny will pay for a little get together. I'll trade in 3 or 4 thousand reps points for it!

    I know you didn't like him, but he was a double double machine. That's tough to do in this league no matter what.

    We missed the playoffs by 12 games last year. That's what it takes to "almost make the playoffs'?

    Because if I'm not mistaken, they were close with 20 games left before they sat everybody. You have to admit, with only 5 1/2 good players we were close.

    That is the main reason I am pumped for this year. We added alot of depth and gave up NONE of our core. NONE!

    Great. I was asleep after flying back into town. I'll have to go check. Sure there was a bunch of HATORADE splashing around!

    So far, I'm not a fan of how the media day is being run. I liked it better with Casey.

    I agree many fans are under rating Hickson. I'd rather have him than Thomas Robinson as a backup PF off the bench. He has some big limitations on defense but he was a legit rotational player that could score or rebound with anyone in this league. If we had a starting center and only had to play Hickson 20mpg his weaknesses wouldn’t have been magnified.

    This streaming feed is purely a bonus. They have to go thru the rounds of national and local media and these interviews are extra. Not many teams, maybe 3 even do this. Have to wait til they show up.

    Wright said now we have a real playoff level type bench.
