Aside from the issues of inefficiency (which we already have plenty of), Ellis is a bad fit with Lowry. Not an option.

This is from the start of game 5. Someone was ready and still is. The question is if he...
I was thinking why all the nicknames, why not just Tortonto Basketball Club, but then again, if we play it would show up at nba.com as TBC.
You can't post attachments on here; just use photobucket or something similar.
Just a few sidenotes:
I think the vet minimum salaries and such are not there because of the owners and Stern, but because of the players union. There are a lot more average players than top...
Half of this 'article' is as much as I've ever read by Doug Smith. Reading what people around here generally say about him that seems one of the perks of not living in Canada and following the local...
Stern's rigging these finals is really sneaky; he might even let the Spurs win again so nobody notices how rigged it is.
Delfino had played in Europe for a year or so and he didn't want to come back to the raptors I believe. We still owned his rights and hence he, or better, his rights, were traded. If I remember...
Not to mentioin that Gay wasn't traded after 9 games and that we already established in another thread that they actually won more close games after Gay left. Anyone who thinks Gay is clutch should...
I'm not. And I'm not exactly close to believing that losing a gm and coach means they have to tank. Does that get them the first pick in the gm draft? I like Karl as a coach, but he isn't superman;...
They didn't let Iguodala go, he opted out and they still might resign him. But Iguodala isn't LeBron and Denver isn't Cleveland. His departure will make but a small dent. The other two guys weren't...
If we 'lose' DeRozan and Gay, we might actually win more games.
I think you are seriously undervalueing Splitter. He has the best defensive rating of the Spurs (per nba.com) and is in the top 10 of the league in that category. Furthermore, if you look at his...
You want Denver to go into tank mode after winning 57 games?
This is so last year: http://www.raptorsrepublic.com/forums/showthread.php?8241-Amir-Johnson-loves-porn-Slightly-NSFW
I don't agree with that. When he signed that five year contract extension there was already talk of starting a rebuild in Boston; it has already lasted a year or two longer before than most people...
Weren't people saying they didn't mention Ed Davis last year? Or am I remembering wrong.
Not much time at hand at the moment for any leaguestuff, but I'm in favour of this as well.
Sidenote: a lot of times people bring up a team like Atlanta, and suggest this is what will happen when you get into that mediocrity territory, that you are somehow stuck there forever, that it is...
Swoosh.
Did you hear that flying directly passed you?
Who the hell is Ron Jeremy? I've absolutely never ever heard of that guy before.
Though I think it's dumb, it's not even close to being racist. Many people favour things they know better and/or are more accustomed to, that's the basis of thinking that.
There is more than one way to look at that. Some would say that with the talent Nelson usually had at his disposal, he had no business even being in the play-offs, but he got them there anyway. It's...
That I'm assuming he can come to that conclusion by himself. Not that he doesn't ask others, but if he has trouble seeing that for himself, he shouldn't be so involved as he appears to be.
