What are your thoughts on the whole Elbee HC situation?
What was John's decision on this? Was he fired and John still looking for a replacement or he hasn't come to a decision yet? He shouldn't be fired because that's not the HC penalty. What's the point of having rules/consequences in place if we change them up depending on which GM violates the rule. Ellbee is being fired for pretty much being Ellbee. John should just enforce the penalty, and if Ellbee quits before his pick is forfeited due to the HC penalty then just give the new gm those picks back.
According to Elbee, who needs calculators?
Harrison blew up in TC and is having a nice rookie season, just how good do you think he can become?
Harrison is a stud. He can become one of the best PG's in the league especially if I max him out with camps. He's having a great season and is the favorite for ROTY. He's going to be a tripledouble machine. Since the beginning of the season he has improved his 3pt % with the RC's/AC's I've put into him. I'm not entirely sure what I should use his other two RC's/AC's on.
Harrison is looking like a superstar in the making
Harpring was a great find in the 2nd round, were you eyeing him all along through the draft or did you just happen to get him out of luck?
There were a lot of players in the late 1st and early second round that had solid ratings with crap scouting potential. Harping was a lucky selection. He's a great scorer, but turns it over too much. AC's/RC's would be able to fix his handling issue, but I have other players who need their camps.
Meyers Leonard has become one of the best big men in the league, are you even surprised how well he has developed?
Leonard is a complete beast. I knew he was going to be a great player with all of the AC's/RC's that were put into him, but I didn't know he would be this good considering his ratings aren't elite. Leonard is probably the best FT shooting big in the league. He doesn't have any holes in his game either.
The future looks bright in Minnesota, how long do you think it will be until your team becomes real contenders?
Well, next season is my CY so I'll be making the playoffs for sure, but I think we'll be contenders two seasons from now. Harrison should be rounding out then and Leonard would still be in his prime. Hopefully, some of the other players on the team continue developing to help the cause. I have plenty of assets to play with, so getting a big trade done shouldn't be too difficult. Look out for the Wolves in the near future.
What do you have to say about the Boston bombing and that whole ordeal now that its came to an end?
The Boston Bombing is a tragedy that forever altered a lot of people's life's. Now, that some time has passed it will be interesting to see what information the authorities are going to be able to get out of suspect #2. It's crazy that he showed no signs of this violent side his entire life. A sociopath usually shows signs, but from everything I read he was an entirely normal kid. What's even more eerie is that after he committed that bombing he went to the gym and later to a party. Maybe, he didn't realize what he just did or he just felt no empathy, but I could see his older brother being blamed for brainwashing him into committing this heinous crime.
Boston strong never looked so good
The NBA playoffs are finally starting, do you see any possible first round upsets?
I could see the Bulls beating the Nets. In game #2 the defense was just too much for Williams and Johnson to handle and pretty much left Lopez as their only scoring option. Hinrich was pretty much able to shut Deron down. Brooklyn faces a bigger challenge to the Heat so that's why I'm rooting for them. Deron has to play up to his superstar potential if the Nets are going to get out of the 1st round. The Warriors have a chance of beating the Nuggets, but it'll be up to Landry and Bogut to replace Lee's offense/rebounding.
Many people are saying how the Heat have a cakewalk to the Finals, does any team in the East stand a chance against them?
The Knicks and Nets could put up a fight, but I don't see any team winning let alone taking the Heat to seven games. The Knicks could get hot from three and steal a couple of games from the Heat, but the Heat are just too much for the Knicks in a seven game series. The Nets are a huge team and could bully the Heat into submission, but they'll need their backcourt to live up to their potential if they want to challenge the Heat.
Can Deron lead the Nets past the Bulls and upset the Heat?
If you're starting a team right now in the NBA, would you rather have LeBron James or Kevin Durant?
I would choose LeBron without any hesitation. He is the best player in the world that dominates every aspect of the game. You can build any type of team around him and they would be great. Durant is a fantastic player, but LeBron is the best overall player.
Sorry KD, it looks like you're still 2nd best
Cassie, Rihanna and Keri Hilson. Fuck one, kill one, marry one. Go!!!
Had to google Cassie just to find out who she is, so kill her. Fuck Rihanna since she's not dinner material. Marry Keri since she seems the most down to earth.
You don't know who this fine piece of work is? SMH
