I just noticed Terraun forgot to review one team....
(edit)
nevermind.... I found it..
Excellent stuff. Honestly the best sports material I've read in a while. This guys knows the NBA very well and has a hilarious cynical slant to his writing. I agree with timvp, try and get this guy to post here at least once and maybe we can convince him to become monogamous to the Spurs in his basketball coverage.
Even though, this forum is primarily Spurs fans. FSP covers all basketball.
You should ask him if he has any interest in writing articles for the front page of FSP (which also are published on WOAI.com). I have other writers who never write about the Spurs and just write NBA in general.
I know everyone's being all nice and all but that's crap. How the can someone write a team-by-team review when they don't even know who's on the teams? Rafer Alston, contrary to what many think, was a major pickup for the Raptors. As it stands so far that's the centerpiece of their offseason. But i didn't notice that until i skimmed down because i stopped reading after this comment.
Juwan is still being shopped, but until the Lakers mae a stupid play for him (and dont think they won't...they went after him 2 years ago), he's staying put. J. Howard was a major piece of the Tmac deal to houston. How can someone that loves NBA ball not know this?
BTW, how did i get stuck with my Duncan > Garnett thing by my name?
hegamboa anybody that writes that much and makes it still enjoyable to read is doing a great job even if he does slip up on a few facts. Afterall trying painfully to read through a short sickdsm post proves that and the guy thinking Garnett is as good as Duncan can prove he knows little about basketball and the NBA and can prove it in only a few words.
I didn't read all of it, but what I did read seemed funny and smart, though he did get some facts wrong. If the guy knew that his stuff was going to be published anywhere, I'm sure he'd proofread and check all his facts. But this is just in like a email group of his friends, right?
BTW, Sick DSM I put your le that way as a joke until you noticed. I'll switch it back.
Kori, i figured that was the case. I had no idea how long it was like that till i remembered the forum got switched over.
Pic: that's the differnce between you and me. If Dr. Seuss, Dave Barry or Stephen King wrote an article about the NBA that was beautifully written with funny comments and great adjectives but was filled with errors, old stats or basically just crap like this was, you'd find it interesting. Which as an NBA fan is basically embarrasing. I'd rather read a bland boring ole' artcle that's backed up with lots of relevent stats and points out interesting TRUE stuff.
That's the impression I got. I guess if you're a Twolves fan you might view the articles with some bias after reading some of digs he took at the Wolves. Yes there were errors but when reviewing 29 teams, there are going to be errors and based on his intended audience, I don't think the effort merits being denigrated.
sickdsm that's once difference. Another might be you're taking it way too seriously and have lost you're sense of humor which, being a Wolves' fan, is understandable.
THAT is funny!I hear Olowokandi's so far in the doghouse he doesn't talk anymore, he just sniffs your ass and crotch as you give him a Snausage.
You are correct... there are about 8 or 9 of us in this group... we all attended MIT between 1999-2003 and all lived in the same dorm.
I'll let Terraun know about your offer... though he did ask jokingly if he would get paid for me posting his stuff without his permission.
SickDSM.... even though Terraun did criticize your team he did mention (on the post where he talks about Grant Hill) that KG would be one of the few players he would actually pay to see.
So the feeling should be bittersweet and not just bitter.
