    No he can't either. I have said a hundred times I think Hark and Aminu should play PF.
    Jake at SF and ET backing him up. (Although I am fine with trading ET)
    CJ and Hood at SG
    Dame and Curry at PG
    Nurk and either Collins or Meyers at C

    Dame let Wade have this last W in Portland in exchange for his jersey. Felt like our effort just wasn’t there tonight. We’ve been playing well as of late, so I’m not going to get all bent out of shape over this loss. On to the next one!

    Oh, and Jake is becoming one of my favorite guys to watch out there. I’ll be livid if we trade him for anything short of a legit star before the deadline.

    Attending the season ticket holder post game meet and greet. Trent, Aminu, and Leonard showed up for about 200 of us fans.

    Leonard spoke really well. Talked about how high he was a few years ago, then the low he got the last few years. He said his wife really helped him change up his routine and keep a positive attitude. Continuing to put in the hard work. Talked positive about the city and his teammates. Came across as a really normal nice guy, realistic about his challenges.

    These are the type of games you say man our Starting forwards gotta be better. I dont know how anyone could look at it the last month or so and think Moe OR aminu should start over Jake. The problem is Moe and Aminu arent good enough to carry a bench unit, so putting having one of them play with the bench doesnt really make the bench a lot better. Hopefully they make a deal for AD (hahahahhahaha) ok or just a good Forward that is more consistent. 8 Points combined from your starting forwards isnt great..:

    How Terry played Jake tonight was perfect. Did not start but he did finish ....and that's what really counts. Played him at both forward spots as well

    I hope that didnt come off as a shot at Stotts. I agree though. It does hurt that Aminu and Moe still play quite a bit and the only thing consistent about either of them is how inconsistent that are...

    He might put me on ignore because I said something he said was "false" earlier. Apparently that was too "combative" and "immature" for him.

    The sad part is that Eric is a great guy. Caring, giving of his time, super thoughtful.

    Kingspeed, however, is intolerable

    Learned not to take much of anything in here too seriously, especially outside of the forum.
