Not much criticism though, love the blog style and the fact that you are still the best funny-association maker (Y)
Would be great if you hold off for a few more days, or a week so i don't have to spend all that time catching up with the plots when i'm finally done with my exams :lol: That's just me though

Thanks Valor. Definitely trying to deviate from long, several paragraph articles about individual games and trades other teams made. Not sure how organized or aesthetically pleasing it is though.

Updates are probably still a few days away. I got New Vegas yesterday and am already 15 hours in. :lol:

I like the recapping style; it's not too long a read, and still very funny. :wink: But I have one request: since McDwyane is no longer active, why don't you rename the "McDwyane Shitass" to something along the lines of "Badger Retard" or something? :lol:

NOVEMBER RECAP

Image
Don't look at the first two weeks and it was a solid month!

November is over, and thanks to a stretch of easy competition, the Craptors aren't in last place. While that will almost certainly change, it is refreshing to be a top 25 team. Just 3.5 games out of eighth place, it playoffs are obviously possible mathematically. Not counting on it though, and thats why I turned down Cleveland's offer of Mo Williams and Ramon Sessions for Jarrett Jack, Reggie Evans and our first. Well, one of the reasons...

Interesting anomalies right now: The Thunder are worse than us at 5-13 (Monta Ellis had 18 points on 5-23 shooting in a loss). Yao Ming (who is averaging 32.6 MPG...) and the Rockets are first in the West with a 14-3 record. Jamal Crawford is fifth in the league in scoring with 25.3 points per game (off the bench no less!). Finally, the Cavs lead the central division, with the Bucks in last, which is the opposite of what most analysts (as well as myself) had predicted.

Good to see my Rockets on top. :headbang: Adelman is not keeping the promise of only playing Yao 24 MPG.

Last couple weeks of November were solid for you. Let's see if you can keep it going like that. :wink:

Dec already... your cRaptors need to get in gear!

DeFrozan > Jamal Crawford

therefore DeMar needs to follow Jamal's example and step up THIS MONTH - give Toronto full momentum going into the new year!

December 2, 2010

We blew out the Wizards by 29 points today. (5 of 8 muthafuckas!) Bargs had a ridiculous career with 30 points and 17 boards, while Barbosa scored 28. Washington was so devastated that I got this text from Ernie Grunfeld after the game:
Ernie Grunfeld wrote:asl? lol jk, this is ernie from washinton. How bout blotch and josh howard for barbosa and the rookie? holla back l-train!

Intriguing offer. I'm mulling it over, as Blatche is likely better than pretty much anybody else on the team. A bit concerned about how he'd fit next to Bargs though. Josh is getting older and is insane, but he's also expiring and may contribute. Leaning towards declining unless I can get another good asset out of the Wizards. Hmm.

TOR (6-12) would get:
Andray Blatche: 16.7 PPG, 10.2 RPG, 35.2 MPG, 18.4 PER, .495% TS (age 24, 6'11", 248 lbs)
Josh Howard: 11.8 PPG, 5.2 RPG, 30.9 MPG, 11.4 PER, .490% TS (age 30, 6'7", 210 lbs)

WAS (6-11) would get:
Ed Davis: 4.2 PPG, 2.6 RPG, 8.7 MPG, 15.7 PER, .510% TS (age 21, 6'10", 215 lbs)
Leandro Barbosa: 15.4 PPG, 2.7 RP, 2.1 APG, 26.2 MPG, 18.5 PER, .527% TS (age 28, 6'3", 202 lbs)

Also, just found this gem on the internet. Had never heard of these guys before, but you know I'm about to spend the evening sifting through their archives!

I'd say decline cause Ed Davis has potential to be good and Barbs is younger than J-Ho.

Accept it, Blatche is a good low post and also have a mid range, I think Howard is an expiring contract

As Martti. said, definitely interesting. I guess I wouldn't do it because of Blatche, but more because of Howard. You'd give up a lot of potential but I think that this trade could help you immediately.

I'm with Clutch; I'd give Davis more chances, then if he doesn't work, would do the trade in a second.
