    He had an expiremental procedure done that could've prolonged his dream of playing NBA ball so he tried to return. That makes him such a fucking asshole. So fuck Brandon Roy and all that he did for us because he tried to prolong his dream and made us use up our PRECIOUS AMNESTY CLAUSE.

    When exactly did he retire??? We amnestied him. I'm not sure how retirement works in the NBA, but I have a feeling it involves not getting your full salary. He didn't give up anything. In fact, he screwed Minny out of more $$$$.

    Now you're catching on.

    The players owe us nothing and we owe them nothing.

    Doesn't mean we should've kept Foye over Roy!

    What if Matthews writes a longer, more comprehensive and defensive "Fuck You" letter in two years time after putting two determined years of thought into it? Would your fandom of Matthews wither, and would your respect for Aldridge rise in contrast?

    I always thought it was a Marshfield logo and that you were from Coos Bay. I suppose it's still possible that you are from Coos Bay and yet chose to represent a non-affiliated pirate to be ironic. That would be bold.

    Negative. I have at least been to Coos Bay, but I am not from there.

    Oddly enough, one of my earliest sexual experiences was on a youthful visit to Coos Bay...

    Oddly enough, I also had some youthful sexual experience during a Coos Bay New Year's. I lost one girl who liked to kiss in the club because I told her I was an atheist and then later on another girl, curious to kiss, attacked my mouth while I had a chew in, which didn't stop her from continuing. I haven't been back. Now that I have provided details, it's your turn.

    Who are our starting five? As far as I can tell nobody even has a clue outside of Dame and maybe Aminu.

    PG: Dame (locked)
    SF: CJ, Hendo (consensus seems to fluctuate), Crabbe?
    SF: Aminu, Crabbe, Harkless?
    PF: Davis, Leonard, Vonleh?
    C: Plumlee (most likely), Leonard, Davis?

    How in the world can anyone assess the starting five when 80% of the lineup will be decided after training camp and likely fluctuate throughout the season.

    It would be fun for someone to set up a poll for people to guess the starting lineup now for the last meaningful game of the season. See if anyone has the golden gut.

    I think Aminu's almost Dame-level lock. I think Davis and Leonard will be the frontcourt. Henderson's my guess for the 2.

    I agree on Aminu, but could see Stotts going with Crabbe if he has a good camp because of his shooting.

    I can totally see Leonard/Davis, but can also see Plumlee/Leonard and could imagine (if V has a great camp) Vonleh/Plumlee or Vonleh/Leonard.

    Plumlee seems like the initial starting center to me considering his experience and what they paid. But he could easily be unseated by someone else showing well.

    I sure hope Vonleh or Leonard play to a level to where they start because they have a much higher ceiling than Plumee and Davis.
