What an Iguodala trade would mean to the Spurs' le hopes

[benefactor]

Yeah you didn't say it the first time. Therefore you didn't say it again. Anger makes you think all screwy, doesn't it? Why are you so angry that I'm in an argument with someone besides you?

You said, in a less coherent way, you don't care if I can access Insider or not. I too said I don't care who does. If you weren't having anger management problems you wouldda read that I've never posted an Insider article and gave a .... but recently was given a hard time for saying to someone that the Rumors part of Insider was worthless instead of just posting the rumor. I thought that was total bull , the attempt to be all, "justice for all, we all share all of our paid privelages with all".

It was lame cause here are these hippies crying because the world isn't fair when what I actually said was

"joke, the rumors suck, jokes, rumor page is totally never gonna happen, joke, here's how to see if a rumor is just a reprint of someone's blog but for free, joke."

A handful of idiots just couldn't take it. I HAD TO PRINT THE RUMOR OR I WAS A ING ASSHOLE. EricB was kind of enough to make a point and I thanked him even though I don't mind posting the articles as long as they're not the lame rumors. Still, none of these events involved you but you had to start this ...

Maybe I should have written it differently so those with paranoid guilt didn't flip out. I could have said,

"Here's today's Insider article about trades(and Iguodala). I normally don't say anything about this but since I was recently accused of being an asshole for not posting a rumor I'd like to remind the heads that I've always posted an Insider article that wasn't already on the board AND NEVER said a word about it. But I want to thank EricB for backing me up because you people are way out of line for cussing me out especially when I wasn't blowing the guy off, I just said that it wasn't worth printing and told him how to get the same info for free."

now who's "holier than thou"? You knew none of that was aimed at you but you have to sniff it out and be involved? I have to word everything around your sensitive temper? A man's got a right to defend himself without some other jerk butting in. Right? If you had to deal with some lame, uncalled-for jabs towards yourself would you want me jumping in and freaking out because I can't handle two other people having a discussion without me?

Dude you weren't even involved in the nonsense that I was referring to. I did say, "you know who you are." You know that wasn't you, right? Are you mega-paranoid with a guilty conscience? Did you steal someone's Insider Login and think I was talking about you? Does that even matter? No it doesn't it. So why get all fussy and start this crap? Do you need attention? Is that some kind of inferiority complex? Someone else is arguing about Insider access and you can't participate so you have to talk Insider and start throwing net-grenades?

"Yeah well, if I can't get Insider, then I don't care about Insider. I'm better than Insider. If I can't play on that team, well, I don't want to play on that team. That's How I Cope!"

This was supposed to be a serious conversation. If Iguodala goes to Dallas or Houston the Spurs could be in trouble. 2% of the post was about my beef with someone that is NOT YOU. 100% of your post was about your feelings towards Insider and my access to it.

this is what we need a shooting guard that can defend.

I think the Spurs have enough of their own issues to deal with without worrying about what potential trades other teams might make. I don't give a what the Dallas Mavericks may or may not do. We just have to beat the other team. It doesn't matter who they put out there, we have to beat them. Do or die. You guys have the wrong at ude. How does Iggy going to another team make the Spurs a better team? It shouldn't effect the Spurs at all. It's completely insignificant.

Stay out of my way.

Or what?

Apologies to PublicOption. I did not intend to quote you there.

I'm angry because you say so? I guess that's the problem with people who have anger management issues. They can't tell the difference between annoyed and angry. Who's the one spending the time to get taunting pictures up not related to Spurs basketball?

Or what?

Remember that part where I said you need to get help for your problem with other people getting attention? Yeah, this is a post for someone else. You have to wait your turn or else you won't get dessert after dinner. Now go eat your vegetables and behave.

Iggy going to another team doesn't make the Spurs a better team. Where did you get that? Iggy going to a rival team can make them better.

Yes, no matter what we have to be the better team but considering this can be a momentum changing trade I'd like to be mentally prepared for it. And since I'm thinking about it, I'd like to have these rated in order of worst to best possible scenarios. I don't want to wake up one day and find out that a rival like the Lakers just got much, much better last night and that instantly there's a much lesser chance of winning it all this year. (I'm obviously referring to the Gasol trade) Those types of transactions affect the whole league, not just the two teams in question, and especially the rivals.

Even though you still have to win, you have to respect the opponent. And as a fan, I want to know what's up with the compe ion. I can't just watch a game saying, "I don't care who they play I just want them to win."

Do you really not care if the Mavericks suddenly become a much harder to team to beat?

No. No, I don't.

You sure do get wound up easily. Too much sugar?

[draft87]

No. No, I don't.

Why do you think I'm wound up? I thought I offered a pretty civil response to your opinion. I acknowledged the points I agreed with and offered a more detailed counter to what I disagreed with...I didn't say anything like, "you guys have the wrong at ude"

[ChumpDumper]

Are we trading Parker or firing Pop?

If so, I'm for it.

[ohmwrecker]

Well, you might be right. I seriously doubt it, but maybe so. It is my sincere hope that the random possibilty of the Dallas Mavericks acquiring Andre Iguodala would not negatively effect any one Spurs player. That is a loser's at ude and it doesn't belong anywhere in professional sports. Just my opinion, so take it or leave it, but I believe this discussion has run it's course.

Hey! We agree on something.

What discussion? Oh...you mean the one where you act like a while posting a useless Chad Ford article using your privileged access to ROFL Insider. You right, I'm not really interested in that discussion.

I'm angry because you say so? I guess that's the problem with people who have anger management issues. They can't tell the difference between annoyed and angry. Who's the one spending the time to get taunting pictures up not related to Spurs basketball?

You are right, this sentence suggest complete and total calm.

I won't speculate on how Iguodala would be the best option for this if they went after him, or how much of a problem he'd be if we encountered him in the playoffs in a rival team, but I do know I could see him in silver and black the same way I could never seen AI in silver and black.

Sheesh people.....

Yes, as a Spurs fan, IMO you should worry about your opponents getting stronger. BUT (he he, I said but), the better conversation is how the Spurs would match up & win against those stronger rivals (especially in playoffs/finals).

It is acceptable to comment that you would like AI2 on the Spurs.

It is acceptable for someone to think you're a .

It is acceptable for you to have a bellybutton.

It is NOT acceptable for you to post something simply to pompously grandstand, which I suspect is the reason you post in the first place.

Deuces......
