Hands down I'll go with neither.
Ok, I mean that wasn't really one of the choices but you've made your point. Numerous times this Summer actually.
The post was meant to discuss the merits of using Kemba Walker's contract as means to analyze Bledsoe's. I thought it was a fair post to make. And it's hard to make that post without a reference to a position I've made clear many times before. So I apologize if such a reference irritates you.
Mostly cuz none of our big men will play consistent enough minutes and we have two above average rebounders on the perimeter. We won't be a good rebounding team, but we'll be ok. Tucker and Bledsoe both are great rebounders at their position and plumlee is good in limited minutes.

The bad news is that we don't have anyone who will grab more than 7 boards a game.
that's an unwarranted slam against plumlee.
but let's grant that what you said is true, the suns were already used to this... as if frye was a great rebounder himself, a center who spends half the time in the perimeter, and a quarter of the time chasing the other team's athletic PFs in the perimeter.

That sarcasm doesn't make sense because Carlisle never said Parsons was fat. He made a legitimate observation and Cuban and the Dallas media freaked out.

Unwarranted? Did I insult him?
I'm merely talking about our matchup with the Pelicans. You implied that they're a good matchup for us, and I contested that.

i just emphasized the positive. whether nawhlins will beat the suns depends on whether they play smart basketball.

Well, I think we're the better team, but that Davis/Asik/Anderson trio makes me nervous as hell.

He's been one of my guys for a while. I suggested like a dozen ways to acquire him last year. I think he's ready for the leap, but this Houston team is a bit weird to me.
