We're all moved into our new house. You guys would love it. Our patio is upstairs with windbreak windows overlooking the beach. We're keeping the guest room dog free just in case. What are your guys plans? We're open for business, but if you'd rather wait till after the tournament thats fine. I'm still planning on coming up for the tournament if thats OK. Anyway, give me a heads up on your schedule...
Good talking to you today. How is BSG going? Enjoying it? Let me know if you see any of these conversations.
Well, it looks as if I won't be able to do anything for the draft. We're going to be celebrating Father's day that weekend, so Nicole's parents are coming up that Friday and will be staying with us for the weekend. So, I guess we'll just have to see what happens with summer league, and if it doesn't take place, perhaps we can set up something for later in the summer.
As far as summer league, hopefully we'll hear something in the next week in regards to whether or not it's taking place. And if it doesn't happen we'll have to get together sometime this summer. As far as the draft goes, it would be great to get together for it. It's on a Thursday, so maybe I'll see if I can work something out to get that Friday off and maybe head out there, or of course you're always welcome to come out here for that weekend. As to BSG, I hope that you have a fantastic time watching it. I'm glad you were able to secure all four seasons. You'll have to let me know what you think as the seasons progress. Talk to you soon
Heya, was out of town all weekend. Left Thursday afternoon (so didn't watch the game and stayed off the internet so that I wouldn't find out what happened), so I just got back home, watched the Thursday game then today's game, and now looking at things online for a bit. I'll catch up on the forums and things in regards to the workouts tomorrow and then let you know what I'm thinking, but as of Thursday it seemed as if Petrie was looking at a guard for the 7 spot, which makes me think that he knows what he's going to do for the SF spot. But I'll see if I still think that way after catching up on what's been going on the last few days. I didn't anything from Bricklayer as far as a project. I do remember last year he wanted people to do some in-depth stuff on a lot of the potential prospects, but that seemed to fall through last year.
Hey guy, whats happening? I miss you guys. I'm still hoping for summer league, but it looks like a remote possiblity. What are you thoughts on the draft. Too bad we can't get together for it. Looks like the Kings like Fredette. I think he might be their default pick if Knight or perhaps Leonard are gone. Not sure about Leonard. I like his competitiveness, but I'm a little sceptical about his outside shot. No idea about the international players. I've heard reports that the Kings like Vesely, but its just a rumor. By the way, did Bricky include you in the special projects fourm? I suggested you as one of the most imformed posters on college basketball. I'm disappointed if he didn't. Anyway, let me know whats happening with the two of you. Noel and I are watching season one of Battlestar Galactica. I've already downloaded and burned seasons 2,3 and 4. Lots of intertainment for the summer lined up. Den..
Well tomorrow is the big day. It's been devastating the last two years, with how the lottery has played out, and I've felt ill afterwards in both years. The fact that we were able to come out of the drafts with Evans and Cousins is almost a miracle, but I really do think we're due some good luck. We are nowhere nearly as desparate for talent this year as we have the last two years, but having the ability to draft a star will only make things easier going forward, so that's what I'm hoping will happen. Let's get that #1 pick with our last chance in the lottery for the next decade!
As to the draft, I'll just be glad once the lottery is over and the combine is completed, so we can hone our speculation to things which could actually be relevent. I'm to the point that the perfect offseason for me would be: 1.) Re-sign Dalembert 2.) Re-sign Thorton 3.) Win Lotty and Draft Derrick Williams 4.) Trade for AI. 5.) Westphal not tinker with the line-up. Insert AI as SF, with Udrih, Thompson, Williams heavy bench players and Whiteside getting 10-15 minutes a game. I'm really bummed about Barnes, especially if we end up with the 3rd or 4th pick and find ourselves having to make some hard choices. Barnes would have been great for this team. But I do agree with you that with these guys pulling out, it will make next year stronger, which will push some more talent our way as we have to pick someone from outside the lottery. So we'll see.
It's a bummer about Summer League, but it could still happen, as I don't think that earlier report was official. Of course, I'll be surprised if there isn't a lock-out and we miss some games. I want to be hopeful, but I don't really think the owners are going to give in too much with what they want, and I get the feeling they are willing to endure a long lock-out if necessary. Hopefully, whatever does happen, it will help us out. I'm glad that you're considering re-watching Season 1 with Noel. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the 1st season with you, it's just so good. I hope that you can find seasons 2 and 4. Just so you are aware, both Season 2 and 4 are split into two parts. Season 2.0 & 2.5 and Season 4.0 and 4.5. I see that you can get each of the seasons Used from Amazon for about $20 each, so of course that is another option.
