Yeah, Ellington's Fisheresque FG% of 40% to 41%, 6 PPG (10ish PP30), and half steal per game are really compelling. He should be a top priority and should be promoted to a starting spot over Carroll and Burks. /smh

Tandem?

You were pre-stoked

The grammar department called, offering you an ample supply of punctuation (with spell check for a limited time)

I think that the pundits call this a "balanced" player ...

There is no "d" in Fre_ette. (And definitely not in Jefferson.)

My name is Mitt Romney, and I approve this message. https://content.usatoday.com/communities/onpolitics/post/2012/06/mitt-romney-rick-scott-florida-job-gains-/1

Well, Verlin, it is entirely possible that there are bigger rip-offs than ESPN Insider ;) ...

Given that Deron had tainted the locker room and the team, I don't think that trading him was overly aggressive. Who knows how hard he had to work to negotiate such a nice combination in return. And the notion of trading for value, Carmelo-style, makes the trade more of intelligence than...

In the case of Portland, having a GM has sometimes been counterproductive ...

Perkins does have hands of stone, given the rock on the Celtics championship ring that he contributed to (in no small part because of his defense, which Jefferson still lacks). KP's still under 30, still shooting near 50%, still logging a block or two, and still doesn't have ridiculously high...

No but he did take a dump in a Holiday Inn Express last night ...

B-Roy can be this year's higher-priced version of Josh Howard for the Jazz <<sigh>>!

As did Larry. And LHM kept saying yes, even when Sloan's lack of enforcement of defense and his inability to make in-game adjustments (not to mention his inconsistent treatment of players) were exposed like an emperor.

I don't know that there are (m)any teams that would have the "assurances" that the coaches tell them when his coaching term is over, not the other way around

Assuming that he would even return anyway, I can think of ~18 million reasons why taking him back would be overpaying for a point guard, especially given the near complete lack of precedence of a maximum-salary point guard (not max-talent; max-salary) who has led a team to a title. The 2 or 3...

Nor do they remember the team who got shellacked in the first round in the name of culture and experience

I guess you could say that depth is relative. https://aol.sportingnews.com/nba/story/2012-05-14/clippers-san-antonio-spurs-prediction-pick-chris-paul-blake-griffin-tony-parker But wow--they are paying 25 million plus to point guards alone (CP3 + Moe Williams (combo))...

Um, a single digit pick in a deep draft looks pretty good now compared to getting "playoff experience" vs. the over-the-hill Spurs.

No--it's not a technicality, because the PG's salary in the year of the title run affects what other players the team can sign. I clearly stated that a near-max-level PG has never been a cornerstone; Rondo is another example of a PG who was crucial in helping to lead a team to a title when he...
