I kind of like Damon Jones. At least he'll be a good towel waiver on the bench.

I'm pretty sure GAD was "in" on the insider thing that wichmae was talking about last night. Of course, I could be wrong there.
Who cares who said what? Just because you theorized about something doesn't mean it's anything reputable. Quite obviously wichmae got something from some sort of insider. Insiders aren't correct every single time, but it doesn't mean the information wasn't gotten from an insider source.

One should never be upset with what they got for Christmas until they have opened up all of their presents first. Maybe Aunt May got you that used sweater because she thought it would help you keep warm on that ski trip that you get from her in the card you haven't opened up yet.

I like this move. I think we've needed an outside 3-point specialist for awhile now.

Yes, but what's the point of having four active PGs on the roster?
Luke
Sessions
Lue
DJ
Why?
Does this mean that Bell will be out for a while? I just don't get it.
Well I suppose Jones and Sessions could be used more in a SG role. I guess we'll just see what happens.

You lost me, where does me pointing out facts give me an ego? A bunch of other people were on the Damon Jones thing too. Logic made it make the most sense. Oh and yeah some insiders are not correct every time I understand but if you want to qualify as an insider in my book, you have to get something right once in awhile.

Re: Damon Jones to rejoin team on 12/27
Well already own Jones rights. This is pretty much old news. We knew this when we landed Ridnour and Jones. Bogut and his inside info is old news. Unless were trading a pg for a pf. Not sure why Bogut would be happy? Less touches for him, Jones is a shoot first pg. lol

Is everyone familiar with the expression "can't see the forest for the trees" ?

So through a tale of idioms you're insinuating that there's indeed more to come ?

So, Someone is getting dealt....hence the need for another guard...or he needs to report so he can get dealt.
Which one is it?
I'll guess the latter.

You don't need to report to get dealt.

It means you're not looking at the big picture. Like if you were looking at each individual tree instead of seeing them together as a forest.

Thanks for the definition Mags! I figured it had to be something along those lines but wasn't clear.
