    With Layman you could just tell all his shots are horrible. There’s a good miss and a bad miss and literally almost every single one of his attempts is a bad miss. I bet in practice he makes them, but it’s clear that there’s some sort of mental block. Nerves, rushed mechanics, whatever. Right now he doesn’t look like he belongs in the NBA. Since his contract is guaranteed and we have an open roster spot I guess we can be patient, but I’ve personally given up on him and couldn’t care less whether he’s here or not.

    They don't? Fans didn't say Pat needed to go try baseball because he had no future in the NBA...all based on garbage time last year? We do it every year.

    No, you're correct. He showed off his nice hands that he got from using shea butter lotion. Unfortunately, it gave him butter fingers at the same time. :bgrin:

    We have a league equal (with Phoenix) worst 1.34 A/TO ratio.

    This game we had a 1.67 A/TO ratio, which (if we could do it consistently) would be equal with Boston for 11th in the league.

    Making it a point of emphasis to move the ball more, share the scoring, whilst improving our A/TO ratio? Sounds good to me.

    You should be happy. No?

    Yeah, it's silly to determine how good a player is based on PT. Napier barely played last year.

    I know you're so flustered that you took the Lord's name in vain, but he's a married man. Down boy!

    He's a beautiful specimen. After dumb GMs stop giving him 10 million per year to DNPCD, maybe he could play the half brother of the Mountain and the Hound on GOT. Meyers Clegane, the Bust
