    Maybe we can trade George Fox for Howard Orlando.

    Don't worry about it so much. I just thought "Howard Orlando" was a funny name. Had really nothing to do with your post at all other than the words Howard and Orlando were mentioned.

    I'm sure 6 is possible but I can do 7.

    Plumlee played with KG (Nets)
    KG played with Terry Porter (Wolves)
    Terry Porter played with Caldwell Jones (Blazers)
    Caldwell Jones played with Flynn Robinson (Conquistadors)
    Flynn Robinson played with Oscar Robertson (Royals)
    Oscar Robertson played with Tom Thacker (Royals)
    Tom Thacker played with Bill Russell (Celtics)

    We keep him, and here is my supporting evidence.... After much research, I discovered a grossly overlooked stat. His 3 point shots. In each of his seasons, he has at least equaled or increased his attempts.....

    2013-14: 3 shots attempted
    2014-15: 3 more tried
    2015-16: Up to 4!
    2016-17: This year is his best! 5 so far, and there's time for more!
    http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/p/plumlma01.html


    Now, given, he has never sank one of those shots.... However, if a professional Zero can make 3 in a row, on the same damn hoop, then why couldn't a professional basketball player do it???

    SO, he just needs to practice a little, and simply sink his next 5 shots. His percentage for this year would be an outstanding 50%, and career would sit at a respectable 33%. THEN, we have no reason to hold onto Meyers. Trade him, and live happily ever after. Well, after we get a rim protector, fix our defense issues, blah, blah, blah.....


    Sound like a good plan??? (Geeze, I've really gotta lay off some of the @Boob-No-More posts. They are always outstanding, and provide so many great facts and information. I think they are rubbing off on me though....)

    :cheers:

    See, when you did it, I was (mildly) amused. When Nik reprised the refrain, I was less so. It's like seeing a Carrot Top routine multiple times.

    Don't be silly, Carrot Top is a genius. His routines never get old.
