    That monster game last night raised his rebound average by one full rebound. He's now averaging 23.2 ppg and 9.1 rpg, both career highs. Maybe he does have a chance to average a double double and win his bet with Nate.

    I think he has it in him. I think he has the natural instincts to be a good rebounder. I think before, he was just too small to body.

    They will go down tonight! Hopefully! I hope he has 10 and 5 and plays 22 minutes. I want us to blow these guys out and our key players can get some rest. Got to the hotel last night at 3!

    Toronto and Detroit are not that far apart and you have a private plane. What was the delay?

    We've had some strange shit on this trip. In Atlanta, our equipment truck got into a wreck and delayed our flight to Toronto. Last night just getting to the airport thru a snow storm and dealing with customs. Then we waited for like and 1 1/2 for them to finally de-ice the plane. Airport to hotel in same snow storm here took about an hour. I know a lot of people don't believe me, but the travel aspect whether we are on a private charter or not, takes it's toll.

    You're happy if you love misleading stats. This is the best time to trade him. Sell high.

    I guess it is hard to sympathize since most of us do not have the kind of access you have plus the NBA road life being called the longest running orgy by some in the media.
