    I think it' smore that they'd have to cut someone else to sign him, and they like who they have.

    I hope we sign Dwayne Jones.

    I asked Pendergraph when he would be ready to play basketball on twitter and he said mid-May.

    This of course means that Cho isn't serious about winning a championship if he doesn't sign Pendegraph this year.

    It has been quite some time since we had nobility on the roster!

    (Last time was when we had 8 magical games in 2007-8 to marvel and delight in the presences of that other NBA Baron - the great Von Wafer).

    Will it be better that winner winner Travis Diener? Only time will tell - but I, for one, am stoked - because the magnificent one is very special - A Baron is special - but is the lowest form of nobility, an Earl on the other hand is above Barons and Viscounts. In Continental Europe - an Earl is a "Count". So he is a Count and a Baron!

    I think it was Juwan, when he went ring-shopping with Miami.

    Which is a bit sad for him, since you'd figure he'd go to a team that needed big man help, and where his 2pt/2rpg and PER of 7 would be appreciated. I mean, the Heat are stocked with Ilgauskas, Joel Anthony, Jamaal Magloire, Dexter Pittman and Dampier at the 4/5 spot next to Iron Man Chris Bosh.
