    Sucks when posters come into a new forum and constantly make post concerning a gripe they have.

    Seriously man, you should stop hanging out with that post. He's a bad influence. Your post is really bringing you down. He's like an anchor.

    I remember reading the NO board during the summer about losing Lopez. More were concerned about losing what he brings on the offensive side and not so concerned about losing his defense. I'm slowly understanding this.

    Bottom line for me is LA seems to love Lopez . . . so I love Lopez

    I'm certain there is some algebra involved in that logic.

    I don't hate any posters. I hate stupid opinions. I will speak to my editor. ;)

    Didn't I recently get a lecture from you about not assuming things that aren't said. I don't think that is what I said. :D

    All opinions that disagree with mine are wrong and therefore stupid by default.

    Really then people should follow the sites rules, I have seen threads with moderators calling posters names, numerous threads with direct insults from BF and many others. I have no problem following rules as long as they are selectively enforced.

    I don't think mods are calling people names. Some insults are missed. When that happens please let me know and I will remove them.

    Personally, I don't understand why it's ever necessary to even say that someone's post or opinion is stupid. People could say: "your post doesn't make sense to me" or simply "I disagree with your post" or "I disagree with your logic" etc. Why should it ever be necessary to insult other people and their opinions? Why is it ever necessary to judge other people and their opinions? (ha, ha, I feel like I could be asking these questions to my ex-fiancee'. I think there are just two types of people in the world. Those who think they know absolutely what is right and intelligent; and those who don't think we know absolute answers. Maybe there should be two different forums for these people, but then it probably wouldn't be very interesting.)

    You're smarter than I am. I don't think that's possible.

    Sad story. You should make a thread about it.

    I've thought this several times. You don't have to double every time or every other time, but if you do it at random then the post player never knows when it's coming and is more inclined to rush his shot. I buy into the idea that we don't doubleteam as a rule, but there's a very good strategy of avoiding predictability.

    It's a process. They did it against Josh Smith near the end of the game. He never saw it coming. I think the team just needs more practice at this point.
