So you'd be willing to give back titles?? Because it's a guarantee that in the games horry hit game winning shots, that he flopped.

Doubt you would

Who throws up 30 shots a game?

I don't know, there were a couple Celtics in good position to get that ball but Andy sold out and jumped on it. That comeback doesn't happen without Andy

I have to say...I am absolutely a terrible fan. Every time they play, I want them to win. Then after they do, I just keep thinking that they need to be losing.

It wouldn't be so frustrating if they were actually a winning team. But going a little below .500 and finishing 9th in the East is just going to be a punch in the dick.

It's the FO's job to make the team better. It's the teams job to try to win games.

That's how I'm looking at it now.

Well right now I believe we are tied for 8th in the east. The only way I want to make the playoffs is to get the heat the first round. It would be the greatest thing ever if we happened to upset the heat in the first round. Cleveland would be a riot

These are my thoughts exactly. They might get swept but Jesus would it be sweet to have that choke artist climbing out on the ledge if the Cavs could shock the world.

Yeah, they will probably overachieve because they play so damn hard. I think they will go into a tailspin though because of trading AV and Jamison(even though he sucks).

Trading Jamison would probably make the team better because he wouldn't be there chucking up horrible shots and getting abused on defense.

Yeah...the defense he plays is really hard to watch these days. Too many younger folk leaving him in a cloud of dust.

Yeah and he will be tough to trade...probably just unload like a salary dump. I think the thing that is likely is that AV gets traded. He has a lot of value to a team that is on the cusp. Everyone loves that high energy guy that pisses off the other team with tenacity and flopping...lol

If they want both it's going to take those picks to get them. No way I'd give them Andy unless they are really giving something up.

19.5 a game for his career. One season more than 25. Glad you know your facts.

Yaeh and who else over his career throws up 19.5 shots per game? What's his shooting percentage? No slick, purists don't enjoy that kind of basketball.

Lakers have nothing to trade, don't see Sessions or AV getting moved to them.

Yeah.

But then again, it wouldn't really surprise me to see a move. I don't really want AV, but Ramon might be ok.
