  1. Ok, just finished. I thought it was very well done. I think the "slant" talk is an overreaction. Of course guys are going to give their side of the story but I dont even think that was over the top. They had Michigan State Troopers who were there that night giving their version of what happened and even the Oakland County AG who was in charge of charging the fans involved. JO never said he would be a top 50 player if not for that night. He said he is still asked about it and know more for it than his playing career and he has a problem with living with that.
  2. I think you get far more authentic opinions and reactions. I would have that the canned/measured responses of other docs. I think we need to see more of players as people with real issues and their real emotions.
  3. Figured with his injury history he wouldn't try and take a 1 yr to get to the supermax level
  4. Yep, EJ proves over and over that he is that dude.
  5. Yeah, the Lakers have basically already moved on with their acquisitions this summer. Can't imagine a situation where they would pay him more than minimum to come back at this point and definitely won't give him any long term money with all their money tied up in LBJ/AD/Russ over the next few yrs. His only hope is to find a team that is willing to do sign him to a bigger deal and do a S&T. By now that team would have stepped up though so he's more than likely gonna have to swallow hard and live with knowing he passed on 84M that he realistically may never see again. Take the one yr at that partial MLE or less and hope he gets into a situation where he can shine to try and cash next yr.
  6. I enjoyed the movie a great deal. Infinitely better than the first one. Thought most of the characters were good and I hate a few were killed off (mostly Flag but then its a superhero movie so he may not actually be dead). Plenty of funny scene and, satisfying action
  7. Harley (or at least Robbie's portrayal) is the best character in DC IMO.
  8. Yep, he looked very good. Hard to put any stock in summer league but its way better to look good there than to look bad.
  9. The league has been cracking down on listing guys at their true heights recently for some reason
  10. Weeeelllll.........he would be an upgrade from Kemba........................kinda...............sorta........maybe..........I guess................
  11. Now I was critical of them trading away their depth but there's no way they would have been able to keep/pay all those guys with KD/Kyrie let alone adding Harden
  12. Very happy he found a home. Always liked his game and thought he got a bad rap in LA.
  13. Nope. Only loss I really have an issue with is KCP. Kuz is never going to be anything more than he is and Trez just didnt fit. I dont love the spacing issues that Russ will bring but overall he is an improvement over any of the guys they lost. The role player additions I really like Ariza, Melo, Nunn, Monk, Baze, Dwight and Ellington.
  14. I joked about the winning by getting rid of Bledsoe but no they made some marginal improvements I guess. I'd say CHI prolly had the best offseason so far. Followed by the Lakers and the Heat
  15. Yeah, the young guys were playing well but that is not Thibbs style generally. If you are going to have him as a coach you are going to have a vet laden lineup
  16. Yep, Presti was able to flip the pick they got with him for 2 more picks but still figured he would try to get more. His agent must've been very convincing. Kemba is from NYC and has always wanted to play there. Not really a Thibs kinda guy but who is their pg now?
