True, but his mind is always running a hundred miles an hour. A podcast/conversational setting is great for him. A very restricted, very time constrained pre/halftime show? I have my doubts.

Man, I might be a Mavs homer, but I'm glad we didn't get Dwill.

Dirk has swelling in his knee, not getting surgery yet.
I suspect he gets surgery eventually this season. And Delonte West has been suspended due to 'conduct detrimental to the team'.
Whose mom got thirsty this time?

He thinks D Will is overrated?

Pretty much, but also the fact that if we would have signed Dwill, the Mavs wouldn't have a decent player in any position other than PG and PF for a few years. The way they went, they can see if Mayo and/or Collison can play up to their potential then possibly sign them, and if not, there's still money to sign try and sign other FAs. I don't really think any starting spot will be a hindrance to the team the way they are currently constructed.

Because Bucher and Stein follow the sport closely enough to drag Simmons' low level understanding of any non major market team through the duration of it.

Bucher is pretty terrible too.
Then again, the BS reports with Bucher are terrible...
But Ric Bucher does have those sources to confirm how good Kobe and Rose are and how they're better than LeBron and Durant.

Cuban agrees with me though...
At least though he is there to say "Bill, Memphis isn't going to trade Marc Gasol and Rudy Gay for Carlos Boozer and Luol Deng" or whatever other retarded "who says no?" trade offer he is making up.
I want this crew to commentate some games too. Last year that Hawks Heat game they commentated was hilarious
Anything beats peddling nonsense quackery, but this is really the best they could do?

He has like a baker's dozens worth of people at his place at all times anyway, he'd have to bang your mom at your place. That's disrespectful, insult to injury.

C Webb is one the more articulate player analysts out there. He makes a good color commentator. I'm cringing listening Patrick Ewing on this Knicks Real Training Camp episode on NBA TV.

Awesome. Presuming the big market teams didn't want to share their sponsorship dollars with the smaller ones.
Only dead (for now) so it's a minor victory but one I am happy with.

Oh god at that ESPN lineup. I basically have to watch now. Who knew that Tom Tolbert would be considered a great ESPN analyst in comparison.
Hell, even Payton gets along with the others.
One thing I've noticed is those guys (Webber, Payton) along with the Inside guys don't take anything personally or just let their opinion hold. And that none of the modern players really take offense to it. Even Bestbrook was friendly with them as they were savaging him. It's like they know Chuck can bash them for the game and then hang out all night.
But the Dwight and Shaq stuff isn't the only instance where Shaq doesn't do that seperation.
EDIT: Actually maybe Shaq should be on the ESPN panel. I'm sure him, Magic and Simmons would produce fun.
Webber is one of the few "stars" who knows how to play a role, Shaq can't do it. Bring Webber on set, and send Shaq out to do remotes and interviews and crap. Or give him some show.
Hell, even Payton gets along with the others.

Lakers are shopping Steve Blake and Duhon and can apparently sign Fish if they want, not that that would be a good idea.
Shaq is wrecking them though. CWeb is way better. The few times Malone was on he was good too.
Malone is hilarious because he isn't trying too hard to be funny like Shaq. His random southern sayings that don't make any sense are great.
Jalen is pretty bad. Sometimes he'll just start saying shit, and it won't make sense, and he'll keep running with it, as if, the more he talks, the better it is for him.

we need to dump both asap... just to get rid of their contracts and to develop morris... blake and duhon are owed 4 mil a piece this year and next year... and for their production... it isnt worth it for us... especially with nash and kobe controlling the ball.
I would rather see a lineup of Nash, Fisher & Morris at the 1
lots of leadership to control the ball and Morris could become another Dragic or better learning under Nash & Fisher.
plus... Fisher needs to retire a laker. It's only right.
also... with Earl Clark out... we'll need someone to back up the 4 spot.
Time to give Kenyon Martin a call.

Fuck Morris. He isn't even Duhon/Blake tier and has shown almost no improvement. He and Glock should be packaged with Blake/Duhon to get a decent back up. If Mitch can turn Duhon/Glock/Blake/Morris into a decent backup I'll be happy.
Out of all those guys I think Steve Blake is the best option at back up 1.

The less the game matters, the more PJIII beasts. Hopefully someone goes to the game and has a camera to fill Thunder fans with false hope.

What's the Steph Curry ankle watch at right now?
Ankle injury free for 3 games?

He's still raw and could use some d-league time to develop his shot... but i'd rather take him over two overpriced and clearly peaked players.
he's cheap, he has a better upside and he'll learn under nash.
but you're right... if we can get a decent backup PG for blake and duhon then i'd take that too... either way... their contracts got to go.

...and that, kids, was the first time I sucked a dick for crack
I've watched a few.
Here's what I learned:
-Jeremy Lin may have been the biggest bullet New York has dodged since...well, we've never actually dodged any bullets. When shots are fired, we take them straight to the chest. So this is an unknown feeling. I want him to keep sucking and blaming his knee, which is 4 months healed now. I want to experience this once in a lifetime feeling for as long as I can.
Even if it's just preseason.
