Thanks for the tips! I'm gonna have a nice pepper garden next year but for now I'll just go store bought or online ordering!

Here is a basic sriracha type recipe.

I wish I could have seen Meyers on the boards.

Can Dame climb up to a definitive top 10 level this year? Outside of his shot, he looks better. Figured he'd topped out last year, maybe there's more there???

Shooting on the wing, and Nurk inside (and setting picks) opens up so much for him.

Denny has given me powers you just wouldn't understand son.

Nice to know you haven't got ME on ignore.

anyone know if there is a replay of this game available

Which is why it was smart to kick the tires on Crabbe then sell high.

"Selling high" on Crabbe was getting nothing in return, other than a contract that's going to eat a couple million of cap space for the next 5 years? Ouch!

We've been through this before on Crabbe. Hindsight is always 20/20. We rolled the dice thinking he would continue to improve, he didn't and it cost us a few mil in cap. It was worth the risk!

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Fun fact: Blazers have been up by at least 18 points in each of their first 3 preseason games

game 1 max lead: 18
game 2 max lead: 22
game 3 max lead: dunno, but won by 28.

The game wasn't covered son.

At this point we dont know where his ceiling is he just keeps getting better and better (his per over his career is almost perfectly linear). I thought his ceiling was two seasons ago when he was @25ppg but last year he just did more. I expect him to be the same type of dude. Score a ton. Make shit happen for the offense. With Nurk on board not just setting picks but being a reliable roll man who can go get a bucket if you give the ball up. bro. He could have a MVP level season this year if we can stay healthy. It wont get him on the allstar team, but he could be 2nd team all nba again and top 5 mvp balloting.

Yes, we've been through this before.
The smart ones saw before the match that he wasn't worth risk. Yes, we rolled the dice & lost.

Why don't we give CJ Wilcox any chance, I know he's old but I remeber him in College, I think he won the championship, used to be a cool player, very bouncy PF

Pay attention for once. He never won a championship, he's not a PF, and he's been hurt...

"Understand better" lmao..

He's thinking of Chris Wilcox from Maryland. Drafted by the Clippers back in 2002.

some watched the Clipper feed I believe, though there might be a replay somewhere, just asked and perhaps relax a bit "son"

There was NO Clippers feed son......You guys saw the in house arena "big screen show". What made you think I wasn't relaxed. Just helping out, that you would be wasting your time searching for something that doesn't exist......kind of like a HUMAN female for you.
