    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I guess no answer right? Okay...

    Well, first of all, I would like to say that I didn't insult anyone in this thread. My post to Mamba was obviously sarcastic, maybe it wasn't needed, but it was in no way shape or form an insult.

    As for kobe23, I would like for you guys (or him for that matter) to dig up a post of mine where I insulted him and give me a link to the thread please.

    As for lakerfan34, when you say that Lamar Odom and Jordan Farmar is a fair deal for Andre Iguodala and Andre Miller, and then proceed to argue with me about it, and how that trade could actually make the Sixers better, I'm sorry but I didn't really have any other way to react especially since I'm also a Sixers fan. And when you tell me that the Kings don't care about the Lakers/Kings rivalries anymore, then yes I'm going to respond pretty harshly because that's just ridiculous.

    *Edit - here's the Lakers/Kings thread I was talking about:

    http://sportstwo.com/forums/ARTEST-TRADE-t118378.html

    Turns out I never even "insulted" him there</div>

    Oh yeah here's the Iguodala thread I was talking about.

    http://sportstwo.com/forums/Summer-Begin-t...20&start=20

    Turns out Jordan Farmar is now a LEGIT STARTER (yes caps) even though he looked like crap half the time as our backup point

    My comment was more just in general, for everyone to follow....

    I wasn't singling out anyone in particular.

    I wasn't targeting you, or anyone really

    I was just pointing out that I don't really "insult" people as frequently as some of you may think, in fact, I don't do it very often at all.

    Brian uses sarcasm alot on these forums, just treat it as such. He is a quality poster on this site.

    I think sometimes when I use it, people may not understand I am joking

    Or maybe after a while it just gets annoying. I'll try to limit it from now on I guess...

    id just like to comment on the odom farmar iguodala andre miller trade

    maybe right now it isnt fair... i agree with anyone on that, and doing it for the present would be nonsense. but it is still possible. simply look at the gasol and shaq trade as your examples.

    the sixers could even be the team that proposes that trade in the future... who knows? maybe they suddenly see that andre miller's career is quickly coming to an end and that they dont see something they like in iguodala (hypothetically)... then they see some upside in trading for farmar and odom, of course they'd try to wrangle the team for picks and considerations and stuff but you never really get fair value in the nba right?

    just by looking at the gasol trade all i can say is that anything is possible. [​IMG]

    peace

    Anything is possible. So why not stop there, let's trade Radmanovic and Walton for Lebron James. Then let's trade Odom and Farmar for Dwight Howard...

    Get my point? It's just ridiculous. I don't have any problem with you, or anyone for that matter. I'm sorry if I acted like a jackass in the past, but try to keep fantasy trades to yourself. There's no problem having them, hell I have like a billion random trades stored in my head too, but I try to refrain from posting about them, unless they actually have a good chance at going through

    I know this offseason is slow as hell. Usually we have like a billion trade rumors surrounding us to discuss, this offseason, we only have an Artest rumor which seems to have died down. Hang in there, the season will begin before you know it!

    Brian is raw.

    Anyway for the topic. There is almost no way something like that could happen, so no point in really discussing it.

    I think with the internet and the whole not being able to HEAR someone say it makes it more difficult to sense sarcasm unless it's blatantly outrageous. But that fault shouldn't be on you. So far I think you've been doing fine with the sarcasm, and I've dealt with you for a couple of seasons now haha.

    Support Kobe on Team USA in the meantime.

    Thursday 8AM ET
    USA vs Turkey

    With this year being the first year Kobe has competed in the Olympics, I seriously sense that some countries fear what he will do to them, despite the diminshed role he has on that team with all the other superstars on there.

    Lets just hope kobe doesnt turn into the Michael Ballack of football! Had a terrific season, but just fell short... twice!

    Ballack made it to the Champions league final (the best club competition in soccer), arguably soccer's version of the nba finals, and lost.
    Then he sought a gold medal in Euro 2008 (2nd best country football tournament) captaining a formidable Germany squad, and lost to a young team (but quality non the less) like Spain.

    Maybe it is cuz I'm from PA, where all those Pennsylvania Germans live, but I HATE German soccer.


    Also, Brian, I don't think your THAT bad, just a little overboard sometimes.
    Black Mamba is worse IMO w/ the insults.

    Thanks for manning up though, Brian.
