No he won't. And if he does, he took 15 shots to get there.Quote:

Flip's best recent stats came in Cleveland.Quote:

If we signed John Stockton and Wilt Chamberlain you'd be complaining like a little girl that Wilt isn't a winner and Stockton can't score.
Seriously, for 1.7 million, there has to be some serious anti-Piston bitterness for anyone to hate this that much.
Fix your face.
But then again, it's no point in aruging with somebody that will hate the on any move we make, no matter what it is.
For fuck's sake, we signed him for 1.7 million, which is a frekain bargain. Even if you don't like him ,you still can't tell me that this was a horrible move.
Would it kill some of you to not hate the team this summer for two seconds?
We get rid of MoEvans and (likely) Delk and end up with Flip?
We're dipping toward 40-something win territory in a hurry...
When I point out that everything you are posting is either contradictory or just plain inaccurate, this is your best? LMAO and weak insults?Quote:

When the teams below you pass on a player, that's a clue. I would suggest you break out a metal detector, a compass and a divining rod so you can locate a few more clues.
Possibly 30 wins.Quote:

Maybe if we're lucky we can avoid not having the worst record of all time.

THEY DRAFTED SHANNON BROWN.
hey, at 1.7 im fine with this move.
but flip has some serious flaws with his game. he's not a shooter, or a finisher (as you call him), he's a scorer. and not an all that great of one, either. hes incredibly streaky. im not sure he has a very high bball iq.
the price is right, though. and he can put points up, which our bench desperately needs. and maybe he'll mature and this move will look like a steal.
but beyond that, this move doesnt make us suddenly a great team again (were you serious when you said this gets us back to the championship? im suddenly thinking you were).
He makes this team a little better. That's all I said.
God forbid anybody could be happy for 2 seconds that we just filled a need.
We needed a player besides Dice that can consistently put points on the board.
Murray can consistently put points on the board off the bench, and he does it in the lane where he can draw fouls, which is another problem we've had offensively.
I don't really care about his defense or assists or whatever. We already have reserves who can fill those roles.
they actually just signed senior citizen david wesley because they didnt want flip back.Quote:
