He is the one real asset this team has left and Rosas needs to be smart in whatever deal he ends up using him in. With all the wings picked up, they are auditioning replacements.

Fuckhead Rosas should have just used him to get Garland, would have had the future PG and could have used Saric for something else at the deadline or right now. Colossal Fuck Up!
What is it about Garland that you like so much? I didn't see enough to feel he was some grand prize as others see him. Hoping you're willing to take the time to sell me on him.
Good luck having Joda explain the ins and outs of Garland’s game to you j2j. He didn’t know who he was until probably a month ago, and now he was the Wolves only hope.

I need to be sold on him too.
Nobody seems to be able to other than "Rosas fucked up."
What is he your husband or something? Gonna be your new one note. LEAVE BRITTNEY ALONE! I mean Rosas. Tried to trade up for Garland, did it too early, tried to bail on it and couldn't. GIANT FUCK UP. If you weren't so all in in love with him for some reason you could stop excuse making and admit it and move on.

And maybe instead of waiting around for someone to explain to you for the 100th time that Garland has a freaky tight handle and was likely the best shooter in the draft you could oh..........watch a game? Or maybe just whine that "yeah, who said he was that good anyway? My husband didn't miss out on anything."

Seemed obvious.

He signed for really cheap, so I would have to think the Lakers arent done yet. Initially I was thinking Blake or Love, but didnt realize the Danny Green signing was $15 mill per. Not sure who fits the mold of a star type, but with a reasonable contract...but I believe they will try to add one more piece.

Answered the question again for the 100th time. That you can't understand is no fault of mine and certainly no surprise. Answered it 200 in the draft thread, but How would you know as you are staring at your husband's picture and knowing he can do no wrong. Why pay attention to facts or watch any basketball. Just keep crying about all the people after your one true love for being shit at his job.

Rosas was the one chasing him, maybe he can explain why he was after him.

I would have been happy with any of the top 3 PG’s, Morant was my favorite, didn’t give a rats ass which one they picked out of the other two....just pick one.

So in not picking one, yes - Rosas fucked up.

Now sell me on Culver, because the footage of him is painful and from what I watched in the Tournament the guy isn’t a #6 pick.

You provide absolutely nothing when you're in full out spaz mode, which is about 90% of your existence. Why should I bother selling you on anything?

Sounds like he's saying he'd have preferred Coby White, which basically screams that he wants anyone that someone has ever labeled a potential point guard, no matter if he's good or not.

Yeah, on the basis of the NCAA tourney play, I don't know what White did that was so impressive.

I wonder if the Wolves worked out some illegal 'under the table' deal with GSW. We'll help you add DLo, if you trade him to us when Klay returns.

This would be completely ridiculous, I'm just so curious to know just how hard the Wolves tried to free up cap space.

The blacktop... Spend a lot of time watching Garland play on the "blacktop"? See a lot of guys whose game translated well from the "blacktop" to the gym, where they actually play? :lol:

Good to know the #5 pick of a weak draft is being compared to one of the all time greats. He should have gone #1!

Looking forward to the Garland Challenge of a first ballot HOF-er, averaging over 41 minutes per game over 14 years, averaging 27 a game as well. Similar builds. From the next down, I imagine. Garland is probably already a better shooter, but will he ever be the scorer AI was? AI 2.0? Nah. Let him be his own dude.

Woah woah woah... Let's not get it twisted. I'm not saying he is the next AI (One of my favorites)

I'm just saying he has some traits that remind me of his. That's all.
