Nevermind. he got traded to houston for a future 2nd. Fuck.

There goes my feel-good selection.

LOL...remember what I said about premature talking? I'm waiting until the end of the summer to get an idea of what we will have.

lol

what? pointless trade IMO.

Maybe they made the pick at Houston's request. None of us are behind the scenes, though some of us act like we are.

of course they did. still doesn't make it a good trade.

Why? obviously Joe didnt want the guy. Its only bad to you because you wanted him. But if Joe didnt want him, why would he be drafting him to keep him?? its a trade, but at that spot can't call it a bad trade. If he burns us you can root for the rockets.


on a side note someone got a link on this trade, because i dont see shit.

what are you talking about? are people not allowed to disagree with joe?

you're not even making sense- who said he had to take budinger? he could've taken any number of players who IMO could've helped.

he doesn't have to want budinger. my point is there were other good players WORTH TAKING and KEEPING with that pick IMO. sure, you probably stash them overseas for a year or 2.

but i'd have definitely kept the pick and not put off getting a 2nd rounder for a year or more. my thing is, we need to accumulate assets NOW. not later. and the main point is there WERE players there worth keeping.

you obviously disagree which is fine. or maybe you don't disagree, you just disagree with someone daring to disagree with dumars.....?

that's JMO obviously and we'll see where things end up.

God damn right

So you're mad because he didn't draft anybody in the mid to late 2nd round? Enjoy that line of thinking, i can't relate. If i'm not making sense, maybe its because i'm not narrow minded enough to make a big deal out 2nd round draft picks when track record is mostly mediocre to average as of late.

That doesn't seem sincere when you get all riled up over a pick this low. This wasn't worth it. The guy is a rocket and a second rounder, the amount of convo about him should die down swiftly for he sake of common reasoning.

you're reading too much into things buddy. this is a discussion board and this is what happens. get over yourself. people say things in frustration which is sometimes more colorful than perhaps you're comfortable with hearing.

so i swore a bit and threw in some exclamation points. big deal. i didn't write that the franchise was going to collapse because of one 2nd round pick. i just really disagreed with a pick here or there. so what.

i think it's time YOU put things in perspective and stopped getting so defensive over the criticism of the picks because that is how it seems. you should focus more on what people say as opposed to reading too much into how they say it.

and your comprehension skills are clearly lacking if you think i was pissed about us not having budinger. i don't give a shit about him.

you're reading too much into things buddy.
You're typing waaaayyy too much about this. Move on with no paragraphs about this guy and this pick of all picks and players. if its a last word thing, type "last word" by itself and its yours.

We can change this kids name right?
