Re: Piss poor NBA competition

[Jamey Rallis <rallis@vgi.com>]

Thanx, being the youngest of 6 kids, I know plenty about arguing, in fact,
I love it.  I argue to win.  :)
But when it's just drivel, like Greg and Noah and <fill in many names
here>, there's no way to win.  It's like arguing religion or politics,
people have their minds made up and their ears (and minds) closed.  It's
not worth it.  I'm not a social worker, and I don't want to be one.

Anyway, I'll give ya Toronto, and Philly.  Might even toss in Atlanta.
That's still not many teams overall.  And I personally blame everyone for
the C's not being in this group, from Pitino to players
as well.  But I'll cut em slack for one screw up and toss this season
(it's too short to get in shape, relearn how to coach, and make enough
enough ground to make the playoffs).

But next season they better be ready to roll, because I don't think 80% of
the NBA will be so helter-skelter next year.  Teams will be ready to play
like every other year but this one, and Walker and co. better be ready,
too.  Plus Pitino will have his precious practice time.

This year is a waste, next year is the do or die year.

And one pet pieve I've had to early childhood, I wrote my name out as
JAMEY, not Jamie.  So my mother likes to be different.

But I'll cut ya slack this one time.  :)

Jamie: At least you can respond with some civility. Unsual for this group.
I'll take Toronto. Their over-achievers and doing quite well, we were
supposed to roll over them. The C's should have done much better this
season, seems they were the worst fit and ready to go from the outset, I
blame the players for this. AW is still not in game shape. Rick Pitino has
a lot to learn. I think we win quite a few more games without this fool
pressing game of his. The pros are too good for it. To Pitino's credit, he
did say we are not playoff material early this season. The Knick's had the
bodies and temperament for all the pressing, we don't, that's why he
succeeded there.
