  1. Yeah, that is actually a great move for Cleveland I believe. Mozgov was the best big man on the market to be moved, and they did what they had to do to get it done. I may be higher on Mozgov than most, but they needed a big, and I think they got the only available one who could actually make a difference for them.

     

    I don't think you can criticize that move much-- if at all.

  2. I'm sending you a maybe unexpired box of Dunkaroos. Something needs to save you because I feel that you're one flaxseed away from yelling at neighborhood kids to get off your lawn.

     

    Don't do it! I ordered a box of Dunkaroos from Amazon, ate one of them, and found out I had cancer the next day. Obviously it wasn't the Dunkaroos, but holy shit that is some terrible joojoo.

  3. I come back to the Squawk more for the people than the team these days now that Zaza is gone so of course i'ma toss out a prayer and a day full of thoughts for you Wretch.

     

    If it's medical-related, feel fre to hi me up if you wanna talk about anything. My cancer dilemma has really changed my outlook on life and I feel like I can be a nice conversation partner if nothing else.

     

    Stay up buddy, your family is lucky to have somebody so concerned for their well-being, safety, and happiness.

  4. I mean, many of us were skeptical when he got signed whether or not he would be able to contribute in the NBA. He looked a bit slow and way too perimeter-oriented even in his highlight tape. Now we are seeing what happens when he doesn't have confidence in his shot-- he often becomes a non-factor on the court. 

     

    I'm bummed to see it though, because I like how he didn't back down from West in the playoffs. He seems like he has grown to enjoy the situation and his teammates here in Atlanta, and I have full faith that he would be one of the first to square up against somebody to protect his teammates.

     

    The European-mobster badass-ness can only go so far though; Pero: hit your shots.

  5. Certain players im money with and ironically its guys who arent great shooters. I play with great shooters and cant hit the ba kside of a barn.

     

    I'm tossing up 1/16 games with Korver non-stop...

  6. I don't enjoy playing online either. It's laggy and there's too many kids on there with too much time to play who are way better, which is really not all that fun lol. 

     

    I like to play franchise mode and create a superstar (whatever it's called) mode and when that gets boring I switch back to Madden or UFC. 

     

    That was me last year. 185-8 online w/ the Pistons, Hawks, and Bucks. Won 100 in a row at one point :')

  7. @Dolfan23- I got it to work on my xBox One-- no problem. Sorry you're still having problems.

     

    My Hawks squad turned out nearly perfect-- besides the fact I only have two Hawks.

     

    PG: Bledsoe
    SG: Korver
    SF: Hayward
    PF: Anthony Davis

    C- Javale McGee

     

    Bench:

    Schröder
    Fournier
    Vince Carter
    Taj Gibson
    Zaza

    Cleanthony Early and Otto Porter.

  8. You can "just say" all you want but I have found dozens of threads of people on PC and new gen consoles with these issues and 2k even confirmed the problems.

    But go ahead, start a new "MyLeague" franchise, set it to fantasy draft, and see how far you make it in before you see that error.

     

    I'ma see if I can get that to work for me right now.

  9. Damn, 2k15 sucks in my opinion. Gameplay, presentation, and fluidity went the NBA Live route, and they messed with the shots just enough to make it annoying. Not a fan at all.

  10. Hey man, I've never talked to you before, but I just lost my left nut from cancer and it just spread to my bones and it is getting worse to the point where they aren't sure if I will survive, but I have one piece of advice: holy shit, enjoy every time you wake up now. Every day you wake up, do something badass before you go to sleep. Shit, if I die at 24 I am certain at this point that i'm going to have enjoyable days before I die.

     

     

    Should have been thinking about it the whole time, but f*** it. Make a point to seek happiness more ever day now. You're in my thoughts bud.

  11. I think Zaza would actually be great in this new ball-movement oriented system. He was #1 or 2 in the NBA last year in assist rate for centers, and really looked to be comfortable on the Bucks at the top of the key initiating the offense at times...

     

    WHY is Zaza not here anymore!?


    On a side note, I also think that Matt Freije coulda been a nice 15th man to rain threes in blowouts.

  12. Someone that can't avoid getting busted given the NBA's easy drug policy either has a problem or is an idiot.  TomAto / TomAHto.  Neighter scenario makes me interested given his very middling performance.

     

    Don't worry, you'll never have me trying to say Beasley isn't an idiot, haha

  13. Beasley and Scott's numbers last season were very similar but Scott has none of the drug or attitude issues that Beasley does.  With similar upside and much better downside for Scott, I prefer to stick with him.

     

    Drug issues? Just because he gets caught with weed a bunch doesn't give him a drug issue, just an intelligence issue. I stil maintain that a large amount of NBA players/MLB players/NFL players pine down; the smarter ones just don't get caught. I will never discount a player for marijuana charges.

  14. why? What does he do so well? He is an absolute horrid defender...he is lazy...he has not improved all these years which means he doesn't work on his game ... he does not take good shots...he doesn't pass...he has low bbiq...he is not a good character guy at all....why do you want him?

     

    Because he can most likely be had for 1/3rd the price of Scott (vet min or 1.5/year), and it will interest me as a fan. I like the fact that Beasley can be an extremely good scorer even when his defense is horrible, and I want to see what he does knowing that this might actually be his last shot. And I have no problem with Beasley's shot selection last season. The biggest thing is that it would excite me as a fan to see how the season plays out.
