In comparison
Picture these summer league scrub games with Bassy and Viktor playing instead of Roy and LA.
Minimum 30-40 point wins each time.
See why I'm not excited about draft day?

Because you're absolutely insane and out of touch with reality?
Yeah, it makes sense now.

Hey, I like to win.
Apparently you're okay with losing year after year.
Don't make it personal.
Be happy.

Yes. Clearly you've been reading my posts for the past three seasons.
I apologize for that. But thinking that Telfair and Viktor on this team instead of Roy and Aldridge would make a ~30 points per game difference is absolutely insane.

It might, but the difference would be in the wrong direction.

Re: In comparison
Why Telfair and Khryapa? WHy not Rasheed Wallace, Bonzi Wells and Damon Stoudamire? As veterans, they would probably outplay the assorted rookies and free agents who make up the bulk of summer league rosters. Only I thought the point of summer league was to look at the rookies and free agents and give them a chance to develop getting starter's minutes.
Guess I must be way off... apparently giving the rookies learning experience AND winning games by 4 points is not what is needed...
