Where are Jeff, Brick, MPo etc etc on these questions?

Dipper — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 12:50:47 -0000

Some big questions that are unanswered and perhaps not even thought of:

1. We have heard all the plaudits about signing Sheed...but.... what was K Perkin's reaction (as perhaps the most effected)? Also don't you think that also really encouraged BBD to leave?

2. Have heard all the rumors about Starbury, but what about MMoore? I assume he had a one year deal and has been told "Don't rent a new apartment here" But nobody has said.

3. Anyone interviewed T Allen? HIs thoughts (if any).

4. What is the condition of KPerkin's shoulder? This is a pretty vital piece of the Celtics pie!

5. For that matter, how about PP's ankle (heard a while back he had chips)? And I've only heard a sketchy "his knee is fine" about KG - talk about vital!

6. Has TThibodeaus (Spelling ?) still on the fence looking for a Head Coach job or has he given up and signed? Or maybe he won't sign?

7. Will Semir Erwhatever come over for training camp? I know he's commited to a Euroleague for the next year, but does that preclude him from joining us for the camp?

8. What about our draft choice with the broken finger? All I've heard is he had 'successful surgery'. Did you ever hear of anyone who had surgery that wasn't 'successful'. Even if the patient died! Them Docs gottah protect themselves!

9. Same subject as above: How come our vaunted medical staff let Garnet go all year without determining he would not be able to play?

10. Who are the C's looking for for replacement assistant coaches? We lost someone other then Thibs and still might lose him?

Ok, those ten should give some fodder for the trotters!

What IS actual height of Powe and BBaby?

Dipper — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 12:08:18 -0000

I've heard forever that BB and Leon are undersized, too short, etc., etc., but I have never seen a listing of their actual heights. I know BB is listed at 6'9 (and is prolly around 6'5"?) and Leon is listed at 6'8" (and is prolly around 6'6"?).

Does an inch really matter? Nah. Two inchs? Nah. Three inchs? Maybe...depends of arm length...size and thrust of arse...and other things. 4 Inchs? yeh getting tough now.

Oh, BTW, KG must be the tallest 6'11" in the league...or, as I saw listed somewhere a while back a comment that he was really 7'1". I also always thought Lew Alcindor was taller then his listed 7'2".

Comments? Inform me please - grin

Anyone Seen Semir?

Anyone have any news about Semir Erwhatever, our 6'10" Turkish draftee?

I have looked for info about him with no success, of course I really can never remember his last name.

I suspect he may be a non-prospect since he doesn't appear to be not only not among the leaders of any of the advanced Euro leagues, but I can't even find him down in the dregs. Perhaps one of Danny's few mistakes?

Some thoughts about 'Why Marbury"

Just forget the hate thing for a bit and put yourself in Danny's shoes. Your job is to win. Now what would happen if:

1. Rondo turns a ankle just before the playoffs start?

2. What is Rondo's contract status for next and perhaps the one after (maybe

he told Danny he is opting for warmer weather when he is able?)

3. How about even if House turns a ankle, or has a bad traffic accident, and

has Pruitt in the car with him?
