Well no. There isn't a single active poster in message board history that has a 100% record when making predictions far in advance.

I mean heck, thats what these boards are pretty much for, right?
Some are pretty close to 0%

But they tend to run away eventually

Welp, judging the regular season so far....we'll finish with a top 2 or 3 seed, BUT we need to add a ballhandler(Darren Collison?), and a wing defender to solidify the bench. Buyouts should be interesting.

Only team that worries me in the West are the Clips. The Rockets are good,but I think the mix of Dantoni/Harden/Westbrook eventually won't be good for the playoffs. We had the Clips on Christmas, despite Lebron playing scared...but we let it get away. I see that as a possible 7 game series(IF both teams get there), and I'd have to see what the rosters look like as we head into the playoffs

Lue is not a good coach. All his success was because of Lebron. In fact ever since Lebron returned to Cleveland from Miami, up until him going to the Lakers, the Cavs record without LBJ (because of injuries and/or load management) was 4-23.

Was his firing a bit premature? Sure. Would probably have made more sense to wait till at least Christmas.

We don't really know if Lue is a good coach or not. He had Lebron in a weak conference. The Cavs probably get the same result if they never fired Blatt.

Heck, considering how weak the East was and how strong the Warriors were, they probably get the same result no matter who was coaching.

Then, he was left with a team that no one was winning with and they fired him 6 games into the season. I can't think of another coach in history who was fired 6 games into the season following a finals trip...let alone 4 straight and a title. Imo, that says more about the Cavs organization than it does about Lue.

Interestingly, I'm not sure the NBA knows whether Lue is a good coach or not. The Lakers thought enough of him that they were willing to hire him.

But they didn't think enough of him to let him pick all of his own assistants and wanted the length of his contract to be the same as Lebron's.

That tells me folks aren't sure about him yet.

Fuck...what a day.

Found out a co-worker and good friend of mine (since we started working together) has stage 4 mouth cancer.


He'll be 29 in June.....
Found out my coworker burned to death in a apartment fire Monday.

Fucking horrific.

What the fuck
Yeah...

Really shitty situation.

She actually got fired, right before Xmas for making slurs at 2 other nurses, one Hispanic, one Black.

...when I say slurs, I mean THOSE.

Anyway, she apologized to everyone, profusely.

The last thing I said to her before she got fired was " I can work with anyone. But, if it's not about the patients, don't say shit to me ".

Outside of those incidents, she had never done anything that would make me think she was a bad person.

I wish I would have been a bit kinder.

Nobody deserves to die like that.

Collison, Jeff Green.

I know Iggy, Morris are at the top of every teams list.

But, don't sleep on Jae Crowder.

He can help you and his contract is such that you won't need to hit your roster to match salaries.

Not sure how the Griz latest surge will affect their willingness to trade.

They might be in let's make the playoffs mode.

Burning to death? I can't imagine that....horrible way to go.

I think Crowder would be perfect for us.
