6/29 I'm an unintentional Jerk Junk

We had it all planned out, my co-worker and I...the third person in our little cubicircle would be gone for a week and a half, we'd decorate his desk while he was gone, signs bright colors, maybe some ballons to let him know he was loved... and embarrased easily.  He was to return to work today.  Slight problem.

 

He went to Honduras on vacation...

Now his desk is decorated, but he's not back yet... and we look a bit like jerks.

Battier for Outlaw. Hinrich for Blake.

Battier is going to caost more than just Outlaw

Houston appears to be one of the Buyers in the market, so they aren’t going to want to just dump salary in a lopsided trade

I’m a lot more convinced that

Hinrich/Bayless
Roy/Fernandez
Battier/Batum
LMA/dead body
Oden/Przybilla

would win a title.

then who are you giving up in that case?

Blake for Hinrich straight up? And how did you get Battier?

Leave them up

when he finally gets back this will all be something to laugh about.

I had a co-worker that left to go on vacation back in March. While he was gone, this happened:

The friendly neighborhood volcano erupted and he got stuck in Salt Lake for a week. We had a good laugh about it when he got back.

Sergio donated his house in Portland to a poverty stricken family having trouble paying their children’s medical bills.

by staylost on Jun 29, 2009 1:35 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Only to shush them up

He had gotten their sick daughter pregnant upon visiting her in the hospital— and he was only in the hospital for community service because of a vehicular homicide charge he somehow got a lenient punishment for.

(If he really donated his house then don’t mind me, that is very nice of him).

I played too nice?

I am, of course, prone to over-explaining.

And I figured doing a snippy reply back wasn’t gonna be nice.

If he was someone I didn’t know from here, maybe I woulda been more snarky. I am nice to those I know from here. Bedge Brothers and whatnot.

You lose respect from me for losing respect for me. HOW COULD YOU.

I’m not even sure what we were arguing about over there. I dislike being told I should admit I don’t like someone when I do indeed like someone. It surely wasn’t an “epic” argument though, just a lotta talkin’ back n’ forth.

Anybody have experience with lucid dreaming?

I had a crazy sequence of dreams last night in which I became lucid. It was one of the stranger experiences I have ever had. I never really had control of my dream even though I knew it was in fact a dream. Eventually it turned into a nightmare and I remember trying to make myself wake up. I woke up and was in my bed, except that I was actually still dreaming, and didn’t know it. A young girl started clawing violently at my window and bleeding out of her eyes. I could feel my bed vibrating and truly thought I had woken up from my dream. I was just starting to scream when I actually woke up. Strangest ish ever…

Sell that one to Hollywood man!

Yeah, I have lucid dreams frequently.

You know those parts of dreams where something bad happens, like you die, and it is supposed to shock you awake? I just don’t die. I see the terrible thing behind the door and then kill it violently. I fall through the clouds and hit the ground, then get up and go looking for something to eat. I get shot over and over again (and it hurts a lot in my dreams) until I get so mad I find the shooter and murder them. Except for this one time when the shooter turned into a golden retriever when I reached him. Then I couldn’t kill him cause he was just a poor cute dog.

Your lucid dreams sound like they are less fun than mine (unless you are bored and want to watch a horror movie).

An interesting debate in shrink circles

Concerning the large number of people who have reported having much more"active’ dreams when they stoped using pot.Some shrinks poo poo it and others think there must be something to it just from the suprisingly large number of folks who say that how it went in their experience.

funny you mention that

As I have smoked pot habitually for a while now, and stopped about 2 weeks ago to get a better job. I read somewhere that marijuana and alcohol reduce your ability to hit REM sleep(or something like that). I have definitely been dreaming more recently, but the sensations I felt in my dreams last night were like nothing I have ever experienced…

So the last two years, the Rockets had short near-dominant stretches without Yao

But now they’ll likely be without him for (at minimum) a full season, and there’s no Mutombo to back him up. Are the Rockets on the verge of being the odd-team-out next season? Will they make a huge trade this Summer?

by Timmay! on Jun 29, 2009 3:13 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

with their current roster, even without Yao, I still see them as a playoff team, perhaps the 6 or 7 series.

I could even see them winning a series. I have that much respect for the likes of Battier, Scola, Landry, Hayes, Adelman and (most of all) Morey.

by jksnake99 on Jun 29, 2009 3:16 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I can't blame you for respecting them.

After they thumped us, I had to tip my hat to them, especially after seeing them in person twice.

If Yao’s out and they don’t have a good alternative, I have to wonder if they’ll move someone like Shane for younger pieces. I’m wondering if Yao is just the first domino to fall now (hmmm perhaps “falling” isn’t the best term, but yeah).

The question to me isn't so much can they be good for 5 games without Yao/T-Mac

but how good can they be for 82 games? I honestly don’t know

by tingeyga on Jun 29, 2009 3:50 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

The outstanding defense from Hayes, Battier, Landry, etc. isn't going anywhere

I would be shocked if the current Rocket roster, even without Yao, finished outside the playoffs. I’d have them pegged as a 6 seed or so, higher if TMac is reasonably healthy, which seems unlikely.

Will be traded to each team before the Rockets play them, all 82 games.

Brooks will be the new Isiah Thomas.

They will struggle to score, for sure

but Brooks, Wafer and Scola will provide enough offense that their elite defense will still win a lot of games.

That's gotta be a huge if

I mean, he had micro, and is 30, and didn’t look to good this year when he was playing.

I think anything they get from him is a bonus, but I don’t expect him to really play this season. How could he? He’ll need at least 8 months to rehab.

Yeah, I wonder

When the Amare rumors came out, I remembering saying somewhere around here “Maybe Yao’s injury is worse than they thought it’d be”. Of course, that was after it was reported he was out “indefinitely”, so it didn’t a lotta brains on my part to suppose it.

They did well with their small ball lineup of hustlers and role players. As we all saw, took the Lakers to 7 games with it, and usually have a good record doing it otherwise.

I dunno if it just works because teams prepare for Yao and McGrady so much that the role players catch them off guard, or if the role players are good enough to be the “stars” of a blue collar role player team.

I think, either way, they ain’t winning a title, and should start over.

They won't need to clear much cap space.

Even if you figure that Yao picks up his $17.6 million option next summer and they excercise the team options on Hayes and Brooks they will have a good chunk of cap space heading into the summer.

OR
They could try and convince Toronto to trade Bosh instead of lose him for nothing and try to trade TMEC+filler for Bosh+filler

by tingeyga on Jun 29, 2009 3:28 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Even if you figure that Yao picks up his $17.6 million option next summer

Houston heard there’s an option for a career-ending injury exception. They think they heard about it in e-mail from some exec; they’re not sure.

But they also heard it takes two years of inaction. So they retroactively added Yao to the disabled list as of the start of last season.

Does it really take 2 years of inaction?

Perhaps for knee and foot injuries an informal 2-year period is observed

but in cases like when Cuttino Mobley’s heart ailment occur, I was under the impression that the Clippers, could have applied for the career-ending injury exemption much sooner than 2 years.

by tingeyga on Jun 29, 2009 4:24 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

There are different exceptions. One is for players who are out for a season, there you can get one replacement player who makes up to half as much as the to-be-replaced player, but that doesn’t take the injured player off the cap. We could have done that for Oden or Raef, but the league doesn’t always allow it (e.g. Orlando didn’t get one for Grant Hill). The other one is medical retirement, a la Miles.

Who are they going to trade?

Outside of TMEC what assets do they have? They can’t trade Yao because of his foot. Scola,Landry, Hayes, Lowry and Brooks are so cheap they aren’t worth much in terms of salary matching, but are key parts of their team.

I would sell high on Brooks

I think he is overrated and not that great. SELL HIGH.

Hayes could be sold high as well, now that he is so well regarded as a role player. Landy is enuff. Just don’t get shot again.

I still haven’t quite figured out why they were in the first place. I believe it is the only time I’ve had comments deleted here.

btw – thanks for the support on the “Have to make a big move or else” topic. There are times that I think concepts like faith and hard work don’t register with a lot of people. They can’t grasp that as a fan you sometimes have to have faith that your team knows what it is doing and has the ability to accomplish great things. And you also need to understand that numbers can’t tell you everything. Hard work can make up for a lot. I like having guys that are willing to work hard, even if there might be other players out there who are better. Often, being good enough and out working your opponent earns you as much success as simply being better than everybody.

Is there a real blockbuster guy who fits and is available for the Blazers?

I ain’t hating on that guy from Chicago, but if the Blazers traded for him, no one would think the Blazers were instant title contenders. And if you tell me any of the guys who’ve been traded lately, then I would question your opinion on stuff from this day forth.

I doubt there is a blockbuster guy

But I do think the Chicago dude would help make us contenders, since our only weakness (TRUE weakness) is defense and he directly answers that problem.

HOWEVER, to be true contenders, it will come from Oden’s development, along with the other guys. Organic improvements. I see us doing trades, but not for a slam bang superstar type. I don’t think we can get one who really matters THAT much. Only one that fills in our holes we crave to be filled.

The Blazers played like a title team for the last ~25 games last season

Getting Hinrich would instantly make the Blazers fringe title contenders. Far from favorites, but contenders. If you added Hinrich, and this Oden guy gives the Blazers 2500 minutes at the same level he played last year, the Blazers would be legit contenders.

Does the big city emit so much light that the clouds store it and reflect it? I don’t know, but it’s too early to have so much light outside.

I have carried those peeps in my chart too (minus the most recent ones, will update in mid-July)

Problem is, the Blazers might have already cleared some of those holds without people knowing. Some websites track those contracts, but even they admit they can’t know exactly how the books look and which rights are still held. E.g. a player should come off the books a year after his last professional contract is up according to the CBA. This would be the case e.g. for Marcelo Nicola who is now an assistant coach in Italy. But it could also be true for Schrempf & Co. who don’t have a contract anymore for a long time but just never handed in their retirement papers to the NBA for whatever reason. (Schrempf is on Twitter by the way, but I don’t have the link ready. His oldest child just graduated from high school.)

Long jog through parks and forests. I hate huge British dogs. Lots of little rabbits.

Some Earl whose name escapes me again erected a huge 50 ft. obelisk for the birth of their son in the middle of nowhere on a hill. Today they would just send some cards and make a website.

disagree

it is like a long set up for nothing of any substance

seasons 1 and 2 had the formula and it worked

3,4, and 5 dropped that with no gain.

I thought Season 2 was the weakest

although I didn’t think 5 was that great either.

3 > 1 >4 > 5 >2 IMO

I would say 2 not as great as 1

3 was all right, but 4 and 5 are pretty disappointing

moving onto deadwood soon

i liked 4th

and the journalistic view of the 5th. Can’t stand the whole serial killer arc, though.

I am not to a serial killer arc in s5

I am 2 episodes in and hating the introduction of the paper with so many loose ends from back in season 2

and what is with putting less focus on the most interesting characters just to add new and less interesting characters? Cmon
