    "It was interesting to me. That whole draft in general was kind of weird. And no disrespect, a little weak. To see Andre go, it was kind of like a changing of the guards, it seemed like, a little bit. To get a younger point guard. Dre is a great point guard, a great leader but he's not as vocal as Ray Felton will probably be. That will help, especially I think that might be something they needed. Dre did his thing, he was a great help while he was there. I think they were just looking for a different look while they could. Looking for a more vocal and more intense kind of leader."

    I find this pretty awesome to hear, another positive angle in this trade, I've been very meh about it, but reading this at least gives me something I couldn't have seen with stats, and anything I've read thus far... How do you guys take this comment?

    Hope all is well haven't posted here for about a year. But always lurk.

    Felton for Andre was indeed like a changing of the guards.

    Jeff owned Lassie before Timmy. Speaking of dogs, Mutt & Jeff were in the Sunday funnies. See, there used to be newspapers. Bosco syrup ran a lot of TV ads before Nestle's invaded, and while most adults claimed to prefer vanilla, half of us kids preferred chocolate. It was probably racism, I don't know. Mmmmm..Bosco.

    I don't know who Jeff is. I'm not ashamed to admit that.
