All I'm saying is that it's premature to write the book on these guys. Kaman, obviously. Frazier, sure. Montero, seems lost, but who knows? But Alexander and Connaughton are two that I'd definitely keep an open mind on.
Rebounding for size is this thing that sticks out to me the most. And I think he lead his team in College in that stat with over 7 a game as a SF. Supposedly his other skill is shooting the rock but I don't think he has really shown that yet.
it would be nice if Cliff and Montero could at least get a few 3-5 minute stints for several games to give them a chance to earn more minutes, I mean isn't that what this season is about in reality?
I'm just saying we can try to invest elsewhere: Seems like a knockdown shooter: Jordan Hamilton is still only 25 yrs old: I'm not saying we need to chase all these guys, i'm just saying that there is some talent available out there.
I felt the same way about Crabbe the first couple of years. Turns out he can play a little bit. Will Connaughton follow the same path? I have no clue, but it's probably a bit early to write him completely just yet (wait at least until next week).
Personally, I actually thought there was an unwritten rule around the league that every team was required to have a marginally talented white stiff with a douche beard at the very end of their bench. Sort of a reverse affirmative action thing. Or maybe it's a Portland hipster requirement Those are the only excuses I can think of....
My friend turned to me the other day and askes happened to Pat Connaughton. Was he playing? I said the Purple People Eater got to him before he off the bench.... because, as you know these things happen. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk
Yeah. Why the hell didn't he stick with baseball? Oh that's right. He was drafted by the Orioles. Between Buck Showalter's endless gum smacking and Manny Machado's ego, I'd f-cking kill myself. Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk
Why Connaughton? Alexander I can see... but Connaughton has looked BRUTAL against the other teams' mop up crew.... Easily the worst blazer on the roster.
Or Frazier. Maybe Paul Allen invested in a company that can see the future and Pat will end up shooting 60 percent from three. Promise to give me a million and you will likely win. It's good karma.
Fuck it! Everyone heard it here first: When I win tomorrow we are ALL millionaires! It's 299,584,000.00(after 39.6% federal tax) What's that like 30-40MM? I GOT YOU.
Remember to make sure this means if you win the whole thing with no other winners. I will still get the full million but everyone else gets prorated amount if the prize ends up smaller.
DX questions his real age. Some say, according to the people they talked to, Montero was 21 when he graduated high school. So that makes him a 24/25 year old rookie.
