Although I’m confident a deal will get worked out, I REALLY REALLY REALLY hope a lockout does NOT happen.[/quote]

I seriously hope that this doesn’t become the biggest story to come out of this summer. The league is asking for big things, but unlike last time the negotiating isn’t happening during the NHL lockout, so the NBA and NBAPA probably isn’t as scared and desperate to avoid the same fate as they were last time.

And if anybody has a good idea of Hakim Warrick’s abilities and weaknesses, I’d love an opinion on whther he’d be better for Phoenix. Because if so the Suns saved a shitload of money.

Can someone fill me in on the backstory between this drewh guy and randman?[/quote]

Way back, many moons ago… There was a young warrior, he was a fierce warrior who battled his enemies to the death. This warrior was immortalized after killing 3000 warriors from the 10 greatest nations. One day this warrior discovered his wife to be pregnant, however the warriors enemies conspired against him and kidnapped his pregnant wife. Fearing for his love’s life the warrior agreed to surrender his life to his enemies so long as they released his wife.

The warrior turned himself in and faced a life of torture and agony and his enemies released his wife after taking turns having their way with her. His wife eventually gave birth to twins and since that time their has been a great battle between the twins. Each of which believes they are the true son of the warrior who laid his life down for his wife and the other is the offspring of the bandits. Nobody knows for sure, but it can definitely be assumed that the warriors son would be a Laker fan, whilst the sone of a bunch of rapist bandits with no backbone or decency would despise a team so great as the Lakers. Now I’m not saying Randman is definitely the warriors son, but we all have our opinions.[/quote]

Can’t believe I read that whole thing

Cmon, it was an entertaining read

Let me tell you the Real story. There was once a douchebag from Boston and like all his brethren he loved his Celtics, his Patriots and his Red Sox that is until he fell in love. Now he always new he had homosexual feelings, but he kept them in the closet since he was a young boy, that is until he laid eyes on a 17 year old black man by the name of Kobe Bryant. And when a Mr. Bryant was drafted to the L.A. Lakers like a little bitch he disowned his team and followed his love to LA. But like a little bitch Rand would stillroot for his other Boston teams. Now it’s easy to see why Rand would do this aside from being a spineless rat he has always been confused about life, his sexuality, what being a sports fan entails. The sports Gods outraged at such faggetry sent down drewh to forever plague randman and show other basketball fans the rat that is Randman.

Oh and this was hilarious.

Def improved his game since his rookie year. Has become a better shooter and ball handler. And he can jump out of the gym.

However, he doesn’t live up to his potential, and can be a lot better than he is, especially defensively. You would expect someone of his athleticism to be a better rebounder and shot blocker, but he isn’t.

At 6’9" he’s a tweener forward and not a true center. He won’t be the guy to take over late in a game, but can flourish if he has good help around him.

Summary: good pickup for PHX, but definitely not a replacement for Amar’e.

NEW: GSW sold to Joe Lacob and Peter Guber. Lacob is BOS minority owner, and Guber is CEO of Mandalay Entertainment. Lacob must now sell his minority ownership of BOS.

Price paid: $450M, record price for an NBA team.

Word has it Oracle CEO Larry Ellison was actually the highest bidder, but ownership decided not to sell it to him. Odd, considering the W’s play at Oracle Arena.

Lacob was actually a 10-year GSW season ticket holder.

This post is coming from a little boy who hides behind multiple online profiles, is labeled a troll by multiple posters and calls me a troll when no one else agrees with him, gets his sensitive little feelings hurt and gets obsessed with posters like me when they call his pathetic life out and who still avoids answering the quesion that he is in fact that little bitch drewh.

NEW: ORL WILL match CHI’s offer for JJ Redick, will remain with Magic

Smart move for ORL

Come on you little bitch. When are you going to admit your Drewh? You think trying to post some ridiculous stuff is going to get the focus off this troll like move? You have absolutely no credibility. Come on bitch, admit it. You’re hiding behind “sardines”. Come on, be a man…if you’re capable of such acts.

I can kind of see him being a homeless man’s Shawn Marion in Phoenix’s system, minus the 3’s.

That would have been decent if you got the team Bryant was drafted by right.

NEW: HOU and Luis Scola agree on 5yr/47M deal.

Uh huh this thread is definitely in its dieing stage.

I think we should be smart about it and let it die with grace. I’ll bet its got 3-4 pages left.

See y’all when the season starts.

^^^ What are you talking about man? Shaq, T-Mac, Allen Iverson AKA the 90’s All Star team are still Free Agents!!!

Well he discussed how other than with the Lakers, you are a Boston guy. That was discussed in the days of his drewh username. So he basically already did admit to being drewh…

no shit you’re all a couple of sherlocks
