Danny - Follow your instincts. You are considering AI because you know he can help your team.
You *must* sign him if you want to utilize all your advantages to be a contender this year.
Remember that the Eastern Conference is getting tougher, and your veterans can use an extra hand to get the job done.
AI would look *great* in Celtics green.
Posted Wednesday November 25, 2009, About: Iverson intrigues Celtics
Yes, that is a very good assessment of the situation.
And that's why the Celtics are even considering signing Iverson.
I agree that they *should* sign him. The East is getting more competitive, and the Celts need every advantage they can get, even though they already have the "Big 3" and Rasheed.
They were able to sign Marbury and keep him under control, so there should be no problem doing the same with Iverson.
What's there to lose ? If he doesn't work out, you just don't play him. You don't lose much, since it's just a partial-year contract.
Posted Wednesday November 25, 2009, About: Iverson intrigues Celtics
Yes ! That's why the Celtics should *definitely* sign Iverson.
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Report: Donaghy conspired more than NBA knows
The image of a "basketball hanging loosely" - as from a male body part - is a bit, shall we say, overwhelming.
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Does Nellie have swine flu?
Just get to the point.
We've all suspected that Nellie is a sick man.
Now we know it for fact.
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: D'Antoni still mad at Robinson
Precisely !
In face, it goes deeper than that. D'Antoni likes the "stand-up", "straight arrow" type of players. Players like Amare, Nash, and other "heroes" work well with D'Antoni. In fact, Dwight Howard - who donned the Superman outfit at the All Star game - fits in that mold as well.
However, Nate is the *anti-hero* type. He played the "Kryptonite man" against Howard's Superman motive, and as mentioned, he likes the "bad boy" role.
Hence, Nate goes *opposite* to what D'Antoni wants, and it drives D'Antoni crazy !!
Hahaha !!
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Arenas-Butler feud over?
We know that Arenas has had some injuries, and that he has a bloated contract, but as Golden State locals, we would welcome him back to the Warriors to help resurrect our franchise again.
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Arenas-Butler feud over?
No one *needs* to go. Of course, Arenas and Caron worked things out. They are *not* the types of people to disrupt a team. However, they *do* like to hog the ball, and that would probably be the extent of their clash.
In the end, these homeys are supposed to be good friends, and if they say they worked things out, we should believe them.
That been said... trades are still possible...
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Sources: Hornets trade rumors untrue
There's a trade that both Orleans and Golden State should do...
Both franchises should trade away the cheapskate owner.
We all know how bad the Warriors' owner is.
Orleans' owner is proving himself to be pretty bad too - I mean, why would anyone fire coach Byron Scott, who along with Chris Paul made the franchise what it is ?
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Nets putting coach on the clock?
Yes, quite so.
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Arenas: Dissension among Wizards
Actually - no. Arenas may have some problems with his big ego, but he's professional enough NOT to let that interfere with his presence with the team. He's a *good* locker room presence, and he has a strong work ethic. That's something that everyone (all the coaches he's played for) agrees with. (It's also the difference between him and someone like AI or Shaq.)
Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Arenas: Dissension among Wizards
You make a good point, but you are also omitting a crucial detail.
Yes - of course, that detail is the fact that the Cavs are in the *East* - and over the past few years, the East has been *significantly* weaker than the West.
In fact, *good* teams that had winning records were *denied* entry into the Playoffs in the West, while *losing* teams were able to make it to the Eastern Playoffs because there weren't many good teams.
That's not to take anything away from Lebron. Maybe he is better than Kobe in terms of carrying his whole team. However, it's questionable because he's in the weaker conference.
Of course, the situation is starting to change, now that teams like the Bulls, Magic, and Hawks are on the upswing.

Posted Tuesday November 24, 2009, About: Arenas: Dissension among Wizards
Actually, your initial response that "It's the Golden State Warriors" was brilliant and spot-on !
The Wizards are indeed the "Warriors of the East".
It makes perfect sense, since the Warriors sent all their big-name players to the Wizards.
Posted Sunday November 22, 2009, About: Heat willing to trade Jones
Of course Miami should trade Jones.
After all, Miami has traded better players with the name "Jones" in the past.
He's not the first Jones traded by Miami, nor the best Jones traded by Miami.
Posted Saturday November 21, 2009, About: Jackson: Warriors didn't care about winning
"Warriors didn't care about winning" ?

No kidding ! The local fans have been frustrated about the Warriors' lackadaisical attitude for the past 15 years !
Posted Saturday November 21, 2009, About: Why Knicks passed on Iverson
The other article was titled "Can AI attract Lebron to NY".
Well, maybe Walsh figured that the best way for Lebron to be attracted to NY was for AI *not* to be there. Hahaha.
Posted Saturday November 21, 2009, About: Why Knicks passed on Iverson
LOL !! ROFL !!

Good catch on the hidden pun. :)
Posted Friday November 20, 2009, About: Can Iverson lure LeBron to Knicks?
Exactly !! You took the words out of my mouth.

AI *repels*, not *attracts*.
Posted Friday November 20, 2009, About: Can Iverson lure LeBron to Knicks?
Well - not if the Spurs sign AI to a one-year deal.
Then AI will attract LeBron to San Antonio in 2010, and they will
easily win the next the championship for the next few years
after that.
Hahahaha.... Dumb !

Good call - Congrats.

Golden State's "Motto": If you are a good player with NBA experience on the Warriors team, you *will* get shopped.
Posted Tuesday November 17, 2009, About: Nadal: Drug rules too restrictive
I know a lot about tennis - and some other Olympic sports. I was on my high school swim team, and played tennis competitively in community leagues ever since I was ten years old.
More importantly, I've been following tennis ever since the heyday of Borg and Connors.
Nice of you to tell lies and twist and distort what I said. I *never* said that tennis does not need safeguards. In fact, I said the *opposite* - that the safeguards do their job of keeping the players in check. However, tennis players hardly use steroids anyway. My comments explain the evidence - or lack thereof - of steroids in the sport, including the visible lack of bulk in tennis players. Of course, there are other enhancers that are more appropriate to tennis, but those are tested for as well.
So, there's nothing to argue about.
