Trey Lyles Signed

are you trying to defend him? Or...?

This place has gone softer than 80-year old dick. I'm gonna have to step up the offensiveness if my light banter is taken in the same manner. At least that way I'll have more fun.

Don't get fracted for a mushroom slap. :(
 
Kevin Pelton and Zach Lowe seem to think it's not a coincidence that Lyles was signed after David Lee was traded. Would have been an interesting pickup, decent backup, although he can't play defense. Would have explained the salary cap thing as well.

DL possibly working angles to get Barnes as a throw in for taking Lee's contract.
 
WTF is wrong with this place?

@ONE LOVE, did you have any problem with our back-and-forth about the New Zealand nursery business?

I dunno man, I mean I can't tell if you're really interested in what you're asking or you're just having me on, but I'm the type of person who gives the benefit of the doubt first and foremost so I tried answering your questions the best I could.


I mean we'll see man, if you're a genuine person why not? It's not like I'm here to make enemies, I'm here to make friends.

I appreciate it, man. I learned something about NZ.

I'm sorry that Hantlers insulted you by referring to you in a diminutive way.

That's alright bro I get everything I deserved for what I did in that Hotttnickkk phase... live and learn I'd say.


Next time you're in the South Island again let me know, we might have a beer and laugh about all this one day..
 
isn't 120% kind of the norm? Is there any evidence that Lindsey was asking the Lyles camp to take less than that? All the evidence of timing seems to be filled with misdirection... when it was probably all about David Lee.

Time to move on.
I read a few teams like the Jazz and Spurs put in a few extra conditions for that 120% instead of it just being automatic. Whatever the delay, no big deal. He'll still play summer league in Vegas.
 
does this Lyles thing remind you of any stuff that has gone down in your family business? If so, what advice would you have for Trey?

harmless, One Love. Completely harmless. This is how a conversation is started by someone who takes a genuine, positive interest in what you do for a living.

NAOSpergers gon' NAOSpergers. Gotta love him trying to spin it, and make Howard sound like the dick.
 
the dude just fundamentally has a problem communicating with people.

ANOS <---- oops, misspelling, accuses me of delusions of grandeur. Here's my psychoanalysis of ANOS <----- oops, again;

He, himself, has delusions of grandeur (too?). His, regarding wanting to be an intellectual elitist. It bugs the **** out of him that no one cares or recognizes. So he goes on the offensive because he's pissed - now the villain.

I personally think NAOS really is a smart guy... maybe even exceptionally smart. A decent mix of book smarts, instincts, and life lessons. Even though I normally have negative interaction with him, I do have some respect. It's just simply minimized by his seemingly incessant need to push everyone else down for the purpose of his own rising... which backfires. If he wants a better board experience, he only need to tone it down a bit and engage in a less snarky, smarter-than-though manner. He will have you believe he doesn't care, but he does.

btw, I'm self-aware enough to be accused of some pot-meet-kettle here (different, but still), so anyone that feels the need to put me in a box, as I've done to NAOS, is certainly welcome.

I looked it up. I had never in my life heard that song.

Something I will regrettably never be able to say again.
