And you always get so bent out of shape about it. It's the offseason. The draft lottery just happened, won by a team who wanted to trade with us last year. It's a point of discussion, and passes time. How many different threads do we need to list the cast of characters availabe for the MLE? You're whining in those also because someone hasn't played in the playoffs. Don't discuss guys to bring in. DOn't discuss guys to trade. So.... What does everyone think Damian is doing this offseason?
I just find it funny that posters who are nowhere to be found during the playoffs suddenly start dominating the board with their "tear it up!" nonsense. Why does it matter to you what I post about, anyhow? These same posters are consistently proven wrong in their offseason opinions, yet it's Groundhog Day again the minute the season ends.
I am going to start to go to LMA's Wikipedia page to remind myself that he's good at anything. The way people talk in here.
It's only a handful of posters. They just happen to post the same negative stuff over and over again, and then act offended when called on it.
There's a lot of draft fever the day after the lotto. Fun to talk about unlikely any major move gets made this summer, unless LA has confided that he really wants to move on.
I'm going to guess that Stotts signing the multi-year extension was a very clear indication that LMA wants to stay with this team and this coach.
I've said that I prefer to keep him, but that I wouldn't be upset if they traded him for the right deal. Griffin is 25. I bet they would trade him for the right deal.
People are taking a smart business decision and running with it as if the sky is falling. We also have another group lookingv at free agency and not thinking about it in terms of providing our coach with players for his system.
If LA got mad enough and played EVERY playoff game like he did Games 1 and 2 in the Houston series, do you think then it would be possible? My concern with LA is his on and off switch. He uses it very liberally. Just Play, LA. That's it. No More, No Less.
Micheal Jordan was considered overrated when he came out of college and nobody would have selected him over Bowie or Olajuwon at the time.
This is not true. No one would have selected him over Olajuwon, but there were heated discussions within the Blazers organization to take him over Bowie. Several people have spoke about it over the years Jordan was the player of the year when he came out of school as well. He averaged 20 ppg on a team loaded with talent while shooting 55% from the floor.
