Let's get one thing straight. Whoever I decide to hook up with for the long run, do not wait for me to ask how your day was. Chances are, I'm not waiting for you to tell me. I don't get this need people have to tell others what emotions you've felt today. But then again, I am your stereotypical introvert. Even if you ask me what I've done, I probably won't answer.
This does not apply to friends. It only applies to a significant other. I mean, if I'm with you long enough, I should be able to describe your day given one look at your face. If I can't do that, something's wrong.
Speaking of which...I think I'll get started on that CD idea I came up with.
Took that test. Eh, I feel alright about it. I know I did well at least. I don't know how well.
There are things I want to say, just not in public.
Wouldn't you know it? Once I get my internet, I run out of things to say on this blog. It just sucks.
Alright, time for some stats...
Looking at rookie point guards in the summer league, taken in the firt round, and here's how they're doing. In PPG, Devin Harris has 18.8 with second going to Ben Gordon with 16. In APG, Harris leads with 6.2 and Jameer Nelson following with 5.7. In SPG, Harris with 3.1 and Nelson with 1.1. In RPG, Harris with 3.8 and Nelson behind with 3.1.
BOliver makes the point that summer league games aren't the real deal. Even so, he is showing better progress than the rest of the litter. He won't log more than 25 minutes a game, if that. But he'll be productive. I like the steals stat. Shows defense. And of course, Harris will be a defensive upgrade at the point. Probably marginal.
In response to the article links sent to me c/o BOliver, I must say I do agree with the idea of trading VC to the Clip. It'll teach him to appreciate all that Toronto did for him. Also, what team could possibly use a SG who jacks up shots all the time? That's why AI won't be traded. Plus his body is bound to break down soon. I agree that he's stuck in Philly, excluding some miracle.
Sheed staying in Detroit is a blessing for them. He is the key piece for that team. Okur is gone, but that's a good thing. He's overpaid now. McDyess will do alright if he can stay light on his feet and not get injured. I have to say, Detroit is the pick to win it all, AT THIS MOMENT. I'll change my opinion come preseason.
I've got no other SOs (Sports Opinions).
Down here in Austin, we have the Austin Music Network. They do a bunch of stuff, but what I watch for is the request show. Usually some really good videos there. But, it's going to be changed into three different public access shows. It really sucks. There's this one VJ who's real crazy and attractive in a non-physical way. Well, she's got something to her, but that isn't what makes her attractive. It sucks to know that the next time I flip on that channel, a dude might be hosting it. That'd really piss me off.

Harris may be showing it now, but my guess is that Gordon is the guy that will show it when it counts. Let's hope he proves me wrong. I like the steals too.
And about Vince --- he makes the shots so you can't hate there. The article hit it right on the head though --- ambition is his problem. I think that is why he doesn' go to the hole anymore, and winds up taking more 3s than FTs. That may change in Clip-town --- with Elton Brand and Cory Maggette
... sorry I accidentially hit the Publish button --- that is what I get for doing this while I eat lunch.
Just to finish up ... like I told you early, I don't like AI, he is over-rated. Can he score ... well, hell yeah. BUT, his inconsistancy and inaccurancy are a detriment to his team. He will never be a team player, it is all about him.
Detriot?? Really your pick (at the moment)?? If I had to say one right now, it would be KG and the Ts (I am committed). During preseason that may switch to Houston.
And I have no idea how you can pick the Ts over the Spurs (as much as I hate the Spurs, they are the top team in the West right now). Duncan or KG? Parker or Hudson? Manu or Cassell? Wally or Brent? Rash or Kandi? Spurs have the better team. Yeah Minn had a great record last year. Yeah, they got to the Conference Finals. But as I say, and I'll stick to it, Cassell won't play nearly the same amount of minutes as last year. This team is down to KG and Spree. If KG averages 30 and 15, I'll concede my argument.
KG may average 26,14,and 8 --- if this happens, the Ts will be a contender.
Last year's MVP stats: 24.4, 13.9, and 5.
