Re: OB wouldnt be down with 3 for 2 deal

Neither. Try good quality cubic zirconia - at times can look like the real thing, at other times like a discount store shopping mistake.

That's the problem - not that there's nothing there worth having, but that it's just teases of sparkle surrounded by a lot of first class imitation of a fade into the background lump of coal. Some of that is almost certainly arrested development because of being too young when we drafted him, followed by a succession of injuries cutting into practice time as well as PT. But after limited minutes and being badly misused on offense in the past, Kedrick is a player who should thrive in the new style, and is finally playing rather than injured at the start of the season. So if he doesn't become more consistent, then I think you've got to consider the likelihood he never will look any more like the diamond than the rough.

Egg,

I think you dabble in stocks. If so better take out a Jan call on Kedrick in
case your gloomy expectations are incorrect...he has been showing a few
signs of improvement...is he coal or a diamond in the rough...
