Woah, finally some pro Mike D back surfacing (besides JWB and myself, if I may). Nice to see.

Mike D would certainly be better than Earl freaking Watson, I will give you that.

I dunno what you guys are talking about. I personally love the three man weave we run for half the shot clock. It really takes me back to my high school days.

Watson is an offensive genius. :)

I think we need to officially give that a name. When the guards run around the perimeter for 20 out of the 24 seconds, just passing it and handing it off to each other outside of the 3-point line, and then they run out of clock and have to jack up a contested jumper that bricks. Let's call that "The Watson."

But, I do think having a backcourt of Irving and Booker starts to get us in the conversation as an attractive destination for free agents.
Not unless we seriously change our offense. Ain't any shots for anyone else on an Irving-Booker squad. Ain't any defense being played either.
Is Watson even capable of running a Houston/GS type offense? I just felt his coaching tanked the season last year as much as anything did. I don't hate him, but I want better, but do I really this season, hmmm?
I don't care what anyone says, I wish we would have gone after Mike D'Antoni again.
Many of us feel that way.

Cavs wanted to keep James Jones in their front office but he preferred Phoenix:

All the player's girl-friends are making them take this quiz tonight, them being really mad if the guys don't get the test result they wanted.

Bledsoe takes the test:

Test: What position do you play?
Bled: Point Guard
T: Do you like to score or pass?
B: Score!
T: You're Kyrie Irving!
B: Wait just a mother fucking minute!

LOL. Hmm, I just tried the test:

Q: Do you like to play defense?
A: Yes

Q: Are you good at all?
A: Yes

We're sorry, you are not like any Suns players.

Must be extending the season and starting it earlier if we finish preseason by mid October.

This is an interesting Twitter follow:

A lot of clips today showing why he thinks Dragan will be a terrific defender.
