    That's more fair I guess. Bresnahan made it sound worse.

    I think I'd rather not know all these details. Henry Abbot must be like a kid in the candy shop with the news that "LMA and Kobe didn't gel".

    This FO is worthless right now. They probably give the same stupid presentation over and over again. He's 30, not 20, talk basketball, not glamour morons.

    We have 2 Rookies, a Sophmore, & an aging star who has been injured 3 seasons in a row as our main core. How clear can we be?

    LOL. Seriously, what else is there? My goodness. You should tailor your presentations based upon the player. Things outside basketball might work on Howard or Melo. LMA is different.

    Even then, you should still present a solid basketball plan.

    That's pretty much what I expected. Not everyone likes being hit on by a drunken sailor bragging about his past legendary accomplishments.

    On the bright side, with our young core, we're probably better off with someone who IS 20. Bring on Harris, Biyombo, and McDaniels. They'll love that presentation.

    Our presentations must seriously suck some major ***. Whoever is in charge of that department needs to get fired. Oh well, even if we don't land anyone I'm still looking forward to seeing some new blood and letting the young guys loose.

    I said it before I'll say it again, I thought I read Aldridge is more low key. Doesn't care about all that marketing crap. If that is true and Lakers still went all in on outside opportunities, fail on our FO big time.

    I think this means we need to stop trying with cap money and stick to the way that has typically brought us success, trades.

    Get people cheap that are good, make them better and trade.

    NOW I want the Cousins deal to happen.
