    It's an issue based around the pseudo dictator of Turkey.

    You think Kanter is a dictator

    If you can match Gasol on Nards, I think you take that matchup 10 times out of 10.
    If Tor goes small with Ibaka at the 5 I don't think Nards has a place in the game therefore Collins should get the minutes.

    To answer the poll question, you play both Zach and Meyers 5 minutes of Kanter's rotation minutes and stick with the hotter of the two. Let them battle it out for who finishes.

    At least we know he won't sign with Toronto. As for conference, it's the difference between one game in TOR and 2-3 games in TOR... so not a huge deal per se, unless you face TOR in the playoffs.

    Remember to leave Meyer's wife and Zach's girlfriend out of the voting process for who is hotter.

    (Do we need KingSpeed to give us a professional verdict here?)

    Heck, I will go a step further, Add KS to the coaching staff and make him room with HCP.

    I ran into Meyers and his wife heading to the Bahamas at the Atlanta airport. Apparently the Players Union runs a bunch of workouts/seminars/meetings there during the ASG break.... to give non-ASG involved players both some fun time in the sun and some constructive time to better themselves from business and personal standpoints. Anyway, I have first-hand evidence that, yes, Meyers' wife is hot as hell, and very nice. Actually both of them were.

    Imagine we gel even more and Kanter becomes such a focal point of our bench and meet the Raptors in the finals.

    A lot of ifs, of course, but makes you think of how shitty his situation is and how ours could be in the small chance that that would happen.

    Beautiful, chilly ass night here in Toronto...... home to one of my favorite basketball courts I've ever visited.

    Forget Politics. Let's focus on the game. We get to enjoy ML and Zach again. I really missed those two.

    I like that my last memory of Zach is pissing off the warriors. Im not sure I want that to be screwed up, but whatever gets W’s.

    I’d feel the same had we LOST 5 in a row.

    That's my point right there. Much bigger odds of facing Toronto next year in the playoffs if you are on a good team in the east, as opposed to the finals.
