    Well I don't know. Looks like all the players came back, they went to the finals with almost everyone injured. Seems like it went pretty well.

    Would you be happy with us going to the finals?

    Wrong again. Pierce was ready to bolt and Ainge promised him a contender. Brought in Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett. Looks like you need the diva and right GM to massage their ego

    Sure, all divas - but aside from Pierce (who I totally forgot is still active...along with KG), none of those guys have won a Championship. Pierce/KG did - because Ainge did his job. Westbrook might in the right situation. But, to my knowledge, these guys haven't been making roster demands. Maybe they are, and their teams do a better job of keeping it quiet than the Blazers/Cavs. Eh - either way, I still stand behind my "fuck divas" comment. :D

    Bolting and making specific roster demands are two different things. If a player wants out I have no problem with that. But when a player wants to take on the duties of the GM, that's what I have a problem with.

    Aldridge didn't demand players. Where you get this from?!
