But you didn't know what went on because you said the Kings traded for him.
They've had at least one game a week on NBAtv for the past three seasons, and every game is shown on the internet.
You do know the NBA has a tv network and a website, right? I shouldn't assume you know about either one.
But you didn't know what went on because you said the Kings traded for him.
No.
At least you wouldn't be caught lying about knowing the court vision of all the D-League point guards.Yeah, I'll get right on watching some streams of the d-league. Should be entertaining television. Right up there with women's volleyball, or Nascar.
Doing the very thing you accuse me of. Nice.
Then do prove your greater mastery of vocabulary and tell me how stats separated pretty much just by shooting percentages equates to Udrih having a better season.
Or you can just keep on twisting this in the current direction it's taking so you can keep avoiding the fact that you got caught lying yet again.
Willful avoidance of all the articles about the Kings wanting to trade him before? Forget head in the sand, more like head up Beno's ass.
Now you are trying to tell us you mistakenly spelled "signed" t-r-a-d-e-d_f-o-r.
I don't think you do much of anything above the brain stem before you hit send.I don't sit there and proof read or analyze the things I say before I hit send.
No, you already put it another way in which you lied.
Now you are trying to tell us you mistakenly TYPED "signed" t-r-a-d-e-d_f-o-r.
You did spell when you typed.
You stated half the point guards in the D-League have better court vision.
I asked you to back it up.
You admitted you just made it up.
No, you stated it as fact -- when the total number of point guards you have seen play in the D-League is, in fact, zero
So you now claim your abject ignorance is a virtue.
I can see how that might make sense to you.
Certainly your displays of ignorance and dishonesty become tedious over time. I suggest you attempt to curtail both.
Wasn't that an attempt at having the last word?Well, like the child you are, I will let you have the last word. Clearly, with a post count like yours, it means a lot more to you.

You have absolutely no chance to buffalo your way around a misstatement with CD. He's gone up against the most obtuse, stubborn poster in the history of ST, whottt, and acquitted himself quite well. You can't change the subject, and you can't just continue to make the same misstatements. Your best bet is a simple "My bad. Meant to say XXXXXX".
Spurstrodamus has far greater problems than misstatements.
Well, he'd be better off saying "I think..." more and "It is a fact..." less, unless it's quantifiably so.
Opinion = Fact is a common message board faux pas, though.
In my opinion, there were maybe four point guards in the D-League that had better court vision than Hill. None of them, however, have the combination of other traits that make him such an intriguing NBA prospect at point guard -- size, speed, athleticism, scoring, shooting, defense, etc. Not surprisingly, many if not most of the point guards in the D-League are trying to make the same transition from shooting guard in which Hill has already noticeably progressed. Were Hill finished with his development as an NBA point guard, I might be willing to write him off -- but I don't think he's anywhere close to that.
Lol Spurstrodamus...
It's not like Spurs PGs put up the dimes, either. It's not a PG centric offense, by design. The PG has three main duties: defend, bring the ball up the court to start the motion offense, and score some. The playmaking duties are spread around amongst the guards, the wings, and Tim.
Is it wrong of me to wish severe carpal tunnel on Spurstrodamus?
Yes. VC is extremely talented. Maybe top 5 in the league.The guy can do anything offensively and shoot from anywhere on the court.
But it never lasts...he either quits on his team or gets injured
Then he'll actually have something to blame 'typing mistakes' on.
1. I'd like you to tell me one PG we could replace him with? Potential wise, salary wise, and character wise.
2. Half the team may be new, but McDyess, Ratliff, and Jefferson are all team players. They aren't egotistical, and although Jefferson may have had his heart questioned before, he doesn't have as big of a chip on his shoulder as Carter does. Not to mention, they are all team players, they are all very well respected veterans character wise, and fit into the Spurs system.
3. Ankle Injuries, Jumper's knee, the list goes on.
4. Jefferson will at least give it a shot. I highly doubt Carter would even contimplate turning into a defensive minded player. He is a one trick pony, and always seems to have a general disinterest in the game as a whole.
I dont think statistics or qualitative observations necessarily back this up.
Per 48 minutes in their rookie years:
Beno: 19 pts, 3.5 rebs. 5.8 assists, 3.4 turnovers
Hill: 16.4 pts, 5.9 rebs, 4.9 assists, 2.7 turnovers
What this shows me is that Beno was a better shooter as a rookie, and better passer perhaps, but also more turnover prone and less capable of rebounding. Also, his defense was VASTLY inferior to Hill's, which isnt really captured in the above stats.
Give me the more athletic, less turnover prone, better defending pg any day of the week. With a guy like Chip on our bench, the shooting skills can be taught. Plus, Hill seems to be a harder worker, at least in the eyes of his coach, and that matters for something too. But to imply that Beno as a rookie far outshined Hill is simply incorrect based on the stats I see here.
