    KP wouldn't have traded Bayless, IMO.

    WWKPND?

    I don't know if you meant that as a joke or not, but I do think more of KP than I do of Cho. If only he had a different agent...

    That's because KP would never make such a short-sighted move. Always looking towards the future like a good GM should.

    That wouldn't have helped us. But I do see your point.

    ZBo had 25/20 tonight. How often do TWO Blazers combine for 25/20?

    One possible justification may be that Nic doesn't have the handles that Roy does, nor is Batum the facilitator that Brandon is. You know how Nate hates turnovers. Dre and Roy are probably the only ball handlers that he trusts. Everyone else, besides the point guard reserves, have shaky handles, and even Mills has his share of dribbling problems.

    A touch of sarcasm, but the reality is that this is his roster for all intents and purposes. Cho may not be anything great either, but when people lay this mess at his feet right now I think they're jumping the gun, give him at least until the deadline to throw rotten tomatoes at him and heap scorn on his head if you want to be fair minded ... or don't, it makes no difference to me.

    This is what we get when a team tries to build a championship team and not a playoff team.

    KP doesn't write the checks. Decision was out of his hands.

    Also, KP didn't negotiate the contract, Larry Miller did under the direction of Vulcan.

    I found the case of beer in her attic, now I'm famished for chocolate. Here's some original Hersheys from the '30s!!!! Good old Mom.

    P.S. I have never been in my own attic. There are birds and hornets there all summer. Truth. They climb in through a gap in the wood where the roof is falling off the pillar over the carport. No problem, except this summer the bees bored a hole to my bedroom so I've been sleeping on the living room sofa the last few months. I go in there now and then and kill dozens at a time. You think I'm making this up? I finished the expensive beer tonight so now I'll have some cheap stuff. I count them as I kill them. Usually about 60-80 at a time. I think the hornets drove the bees into exile into hell, so they tunnelled down to my bedroom. The whole room smells like bees and I don't want to sleep there.

    Yup. KP said it was out of his hands. PA/Vulcan/Miller folded under pressure. There as guilty as anyone for giving him that contract since they knew the condition of his knees as well.

    Just another example PA doesn't know how to win.
