    Glad you asked. I didn’t want to look stupid and not know?

    It was so dumb not to use him that way.

    They have one of the best closers in the history of basketball and they had him sitting around on the perimeter. Griffin was a moron.

    Griffin also didn't get a chance to demonstrate whether that's a smarter approach in the playoffs.

    Have you thought that through fully? Stotts rode Lillard to regular season success by playing the way you're saying Griffin should have. That style of play proved to be pretty ineffective in the playoffs, when anyone not named OKC was prepared for it.

    Stotts and Dame didn't have Giannis. Any team that tries to overload on Dame is going to get killed by Giannis.

    Funny how having a MVP on the roster does that.

    they didn't have Khris Middleton either.

    blaming Dame for the failures of Oshey's roster building 101

    Sly told me I was the MOST blocked person on the site. I am the source of hate and frustration…..the reason people are quitting or choose to use another forum.

    I think the fact that Giannis is the other option changes everything.

    Sly has been known to bend the truth at times. I wonder if this might be one of those times?

    Come to thin of it? Try starting an "Around the NBA" thread and see if he allows it to stay in your name. That will tell you if it's the truth?
