I will also hold of on the LA, San Antonio bet for one reason (actually two).
Parker.
If Parker comes back at full strength, and then we actually have a legitmate back up in Stoudamire on offense. We are better than last year. We also need Barry back (2nd player we need). If those guys make it back at full strength, I will take the bet with you.

I like Stuckey based on today.
Maxiel is a beast. Detroit needed
a tougher guy than R. Wallace and
McDyess.

There are fewer guys tougher than Wallace or McDyess. Maxial is younger and is a tremendous athlete for a guy of his size.

I hate to break it to you but Stoudamire is a shoot first guy who cant guard anybody. I can see him as an instant offense guy off the bench who plays in spurts but it is not playing to his strengths to play a pure point. Barry is never going to be full strength this year. Horry has been pitiful (he is like 60 years old).

I think Wallace is a complete and total pansy.
I am now fat enough to beat him up.

You may be right about Barry.
Horry has not been good but I never
count this guy out. I wanted him let
go every year.

Wallace may be a bit insane but I dont think he is a *****.

Horry is shooting 18% from the field. He should be able to shoot 18% from half court.

I also think that Parker may not get back to 100% especially considering how he depends on his legs for his whole game. A heel spur can be a bitch, a long nagging injury. Storm Cadet could probably give us a little more indepth injury analysis.

I am very worried about Parker.

Wallace has always hacked me off
because he refuses to play down low
in the tough part of games because he
cant handle getting shoved around.

If Wallace could control his temper and realize
he can post up WITHOUT falling away and draw fouls
in the last part of games. Getting to the foul line
in the crunch is not his forte.

I really think he just cant take the physical contact
required by his team at the end of games.
Therefore I think he is pansy as s. I really do.

McDyess has gone thru so many injuries I cant
really pee on him.

Wallace is a better perimeter player and his role has always been to draw a big guy outside but he posts up plenty if teams switch off a smaller guy on him. He is a good player who gets a bad rap because of his bs.
