    Jus got back from Cali, had an interesting experience with CBD oil.  Do any of y'all have any positive or negative experience with it?  Did some reading, supposed to have some benefits to smoking without the THC, though very unregulated and new so limited research to support my theory this is worth me looking into.  Happy medium between what I'm doing and what I'm risking.

     

    I've had some experience, and quite frankly, it just puts me to bed lol. Doesn't really affect my head too much, but definitely takes a bit of the edge off without going full planet Xenon.

  2. What's getting lost in this conversation... Didn't we bring in Paul Richardson to be a deep threat? Why the heck aren't we using him as one then?!

     

    Look what happened the two times we actually threw the ball deep to him this year -- defensive holding against AZ and a 35 yard gain against the Colts. We need to be taking more shots to him . It is the only way we can open up things in the short passing game for Reed/Thompson/Crowder. And, if we believe Alex is the same QB he was last year, he lead the friggin NFL in downfield passing.

    You guys are seriously overlooking Toronto.  That does not seem to be the same team that flamed out the past couple of years in the playoffs.  They have opened their offense, and they added a lot of athleticism.  There's a reason that they are second in margin of victory, behind only Houston.  

     

     

     

    Yeah, but their third best player is Ibaka or Valanciunas... When one of those guys is your third best option you are going to have some real issues come playoff time.

  4. Beal has crazy trade value. Floating him out there could crack open a bidding war...which is what we want.

     

    This is an awful idea lol. We are literally 7 games into our season and you are actually thinking about trading away our second best player? Everyone needs to calm down a little. Yeah we look bad, but the NBA season is 82 games long and is full of up's and down's. We beat the Spurs a week ago for christ sake.

  5. Long shot here.. I will be in Indianapolis opening weekend for business. Does anyone know/have any idea of where a good spot to catch the game would be? I'm sure there are plenty of bars with Sunday ticket but I am guessing the majority are going to be Colts only. Thanks in advance guys. 

  6. Regardless of what we do at the #3 pick, I would love to see us add some more scorers with our 2nd rounders. A guy that hasn't been talked about absolutely anywhere is Temple's Khalif Wyatt. I saw him play live this past NCAA tournament against Indiana in the 2nd round and absolutley toy with the best definsive player (Oladipo) and team in the country. When you take a look at him he looks the exact opposite of what you would picture a great scorer to be, but he has such a crafty and unique scoring arsenal. More so than Shabazz, Steve, he reminds me of a Paul Pierce type.

     

    If he shows he can get buckets against a great defender in Oladipo I see no reason why he can't come off the bench 8-14 minutes a game to give our bench a much needed scoring spark.

  7. That rumor of Illysova for the 3rd pick (obviously other parts included) scared the hell out of me. Some Bucks beat writer said it was 50/50 on twitter but I saw another tweet that said there's no truth to it. Ernie can't be THAT dumb, can he?

    The Bucks and Wizards have explored a trade involving big man Ersan Ilyasova and the No. 3 pick in this year's draft, according to Sam Amico of FOX Sports (via Twitter).  It's unclear if the Bucks would keep their own first round selection in such a deal, but they currently hold the No. 15 pick.

    Ilyasova, 26, just finished the first year of a five-year, $40MM deal in Milwaukee.  The stretch four averaged 17.2 PPG, 9.3 RPG, and 2.1 APG last season while shooting 44.4% from the outside.  Ilyasova was in high-demand at the trade deadline this year, but the Bucks turned away suitors, including the Hawks, who were dangling Josh Smith.

    No one knows how the top of the draft will shake out yet, but the No. 3 pick could yield a high-level talent for the Wizards, whether it's UNLV power forward Anthony Bennett or Georgetown's Otto Porter.  The Washington front office is reportedly split on which player to take, but they won't have that dilemma if they move the pick. 

    If this trade goes down I might consider turning in my fan card. This move just screams mediocrity. Ilyasova is a decent player, but what are we trying to build a perrenial 4-6th seed? The point of any franchise is to win a championship. The only way we could reach the Finals with a Wall-Beal-Ilyasova core is if both Wall and Beal make metioric rises to stardom. Even then we would get ripped apart by the Heat, Pacers (getting killed against the front court), a returning presumably healthy Derrick Rose and a possible rise of the Cavs with their 1st overall pick.

     

    It is not very often you get the chance to add the 3rd best prospect available, and even in a weak draft you still have the potential to add an All Star at that 3rd pick. No matter what anyone says, Ilyasova will never, ever be an All Star in this league.

     

    Take Porter or Bennett and be happy that the ping pong balls bounced in our favor for once.
