I can think your opinion is stupid, but that does not mean I think YOU are stupid. They are two different things and if people cant separate that or have thin skin, I can't help that.

That's idiotic.

Not sure how we continue a discussion board if we are not allowed to STRONGLY disagree with someones opinion. If in my opinion something is absurd, then I will say that. Again, has no bearing on the way I personally feel about someone as most of you I have never met and know nothing about what kind of people you are.

People need to get thicker skins... I mean if you put an opinion for the "public" to see, then you have to expect some people are going to have strong reactions.

migya is a GREAT example. I mean I have really gone after his opinion... probably too harshly and perhaps I have crossed the line with him from time to time... but he never resorts to peronal attacks and instead just tires to clarify and explain his position. I give migya a lot of respect.

That would give us 4th and 6th. We could then go Wes Johnson at 4 then Cousins/Monroe at 6.

I agree. I think Monta would be seen as a huge asset on any team that mostly plays a half court game, and he showed he can play some sick D when he wants to. Even if it would benefit the Warriors in the long run, it seems wrong to give up Monta for just draft picks. I'd still probably do it, I'd just try to get more first

I keep thinking it would be sick to see Monta on the Celtics. Their style and a Rondo/Monta backcourt....

Too bad they don't have a high draft pick.

If the Wolves would do it, that would be a great deal for the Dubs. It would free up some cap space immediately as well as adding another dynamic young player to the mix.

bada wrote:yeah, just trying to go over all the scenarios with Minnesota as they NEED a guy like Monta. He is the perfect fit and obviously they have things we want.

Trying to think of any way we can address our frontcourt needs WITHOUT it being for Al Jefferson. I just dont want that guy on our team. He is a back to the basket scorer who rebounds just OK, plays no defense and is SLOW SLOW SLOW and is a terrible fit for our high paced offense. He would kill our flow and could not keep up.

That does not even go into his contract and injury situation. And I dont think we can get Love....so that led me to this possibility. Them being substantially under the cap gives us more options.
