So you will stop watching at age 65?

Probably be dead by 65.

Early but the Magic have surprised me greatly....but looking at the roster they have some potential. May be headed in the right direction.

Augustin's got talent and I've always liked him since he played well in Chicago I think it was.

Gordon had a crazy 40 point game and might be ready to take the next step.And Fournier has been excellent. Vucevic is a beast.

Payton is hurt so that sucks.....but Simmons was a solid addition.

MMA Fan is happy in the swamp.....

Gordon is playing for a contract.

So, I expect him to go HAM all year...lol

Vuvecic has been excellent too.

Love Simmons.

Think he's coming into his own...finally.

I thought they could get #8.

I still do.

But, Orlando looks like they want to take a step.

So, you might be right.

Orlando would be a great story, Aaron Gordon is thriving at the 4 where he belongs, and they are hitting a ton of 3s. But regression to the mean is a bitch. Lakers were 10-10 last year in the first part of the season too...

That's horrible.

But, I tell my kids all the time, I want to tap out when I can no longer wipe my own ass.

Well yeah with that attitude

I eat bad.....taking a whole regimen of supplements....

Great point.

I don't think Gordon nor Vuvecic play is sustainable for a year.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Well yeah with that attitude

Cancer is brutal, man. I'll probably develop it and put a bunch of pills in my mouth because I don't want to go out on a machine.....and shit.

I'm very Tupac-ish.

Asshole.


















But, valid points.

He wanted a max deal.

Obviously, Orlando balked.

He's betting on himself and proving his worth.

Worked well for guys like Waiters, not so much for guys like Roberson, Noel.

That's kind of dark, basically assuming you will get cancer and then have to kill yourself. Sheesh man, lighten up. The Dodgers aren't done yet! The Raiders might be though.

Taking a daily multi-vitamin, amazing wheat grass, fish oil, Viatmin C, a liver supplement so I can all beer I want, CoQ-10, and a little apple cider 3-4 times a week. Tastes like shit but it's got a shit ton of health benefits.

My mom went out on Hydra-morphone (super strong pain killer) and was basically tired all the time. Even though her mind was still sharp.....sucked seeing her go out like that. Cancer is being far too common, chances are somebody you know will get it.

Not disciplined enough to eat much better, it's hard. So just being realistic.

I could be a hater.

But, outside of the skin color...well, not even that because BG is kinda reddish orange, I don't see the Griffin comparison.

Gordon is a much better athlete, which is really saying something because Blake is a freak.

But, Aaron can't handle the ball and is not comparable at all outside of dunking.

Not sure I compared them?

So, BG is related to Trump?

 

[DJ Fieri]

Was just thinking Gordon might be a BG clone but with better outside shooting......Mecca is my cyber soul mate.

Yeah, several folks in this forum have recently lost loved ones.

I don't want to be insensitive by talking about this further.

L8r all.

Not you, Silly...lol

Coming out of college, that was his player comparison.
