Seriously, I just reminded myself, and I’m very proud of it. BUSTER POSEY THOMAS NEAL WHAT?

Seriously though, thanks for the reminder. I was wondering what the hell I was going to do tonight, and I almost decided to read. READ! Thanks for saving me from that mess.

Gigante is kinda creepy.

Also, he autographed my wife’s hat – my son saw him autographing other kids’ hats, so he stole my mom’s and ran over to give it to him.

I’m not going to talk numbers, but you’re close to that one guy who posts stupid fanposts and then leaves. I seriously can’t remember what his/her name is.

I have no Hometown

But I do have Joe Ritzo on internet radio! Just in time for the big man to go down on three strikes.

Grant you paying attention to this Warriors madness tonight? Sounds like they’re close to giving up too much for Amare, which ends up being a mixed bag because great players largely determine the NBA.

by Stoned Slacker on Jun 25, 2009 8:08 PM PDT reply actions

Too much for Amare? Did Biedrins develop a 20-footer last month? I mean, I love Belly and Branden Wright in their own special, Fred Lewis kind of flawed prospect kind of way, and Biedrins is a heckuva player, but Amare?

Amare!

Amare + what I think Randolph can be = perennial playoff team. One more piece, and they can be much, much more.

by Grant Brisbee on Jun 25, 2009 8:16 PM PDT up reply actions

plus, STEPHEN CURRY!

Brand new adoptive daddy for the Big Unit. Congrats go out to my son for his 300th win. Only 211 more wins until he catches Cy Young!

by Speedforthewin on Jun 25, 2009 8:25 PM PDT up reply actions

Maybe. I’d like to keep him, for sure. I’d hope that the #14 (Clark) would come back to the Warriors if Curry is involved.

by Grant Brisbee on Jun 25, 2009 8:32 PM PDT up reply actions

That's the thing

I warmed up to the Curry pick really quickly. I don’t like the idea of giving them five cheap, young, productive players for 1. Four guys I could accept but still think is a bit much for an expensive, moody player with a massive and somewhat unprecedented surgery in his past.

Three guys – AB, BW, and one of the others even Curry – I think would be most appropriate.

by Stoned Slacker on Jun 25, 2009 8:43 PM PDT up reply actions

I’m kind of with you, but then I ask myself, “Really, is Belinelli a dealbreaker for Amare?” And a Curry/Monta backcourt would be a defensive nightmare, so they couldn’t be on the floor together too much.

by Grant Brisbee on Jun 25, 2009 8:53 PM PDT up reply actions

All true

But its the Suns that are the broke team that desperately needs to shed salary, can’t they let the Ws be the team dealing from the position of strength for once!

by Stoned Slacker on Jun 25, 2009 9:00 PM PDT up reply actions

True enough. It’d be hard for another team to match the Warriors quantity/quality offer. Maybe that’s why Marcus Thompson thinks the Warriors might hold on to Curry.
