Ahh crap, u beat me to it. Delete my thread Isaac, sorry.

I called it! What's my prize?

Xztatik - nice work re calling Joiner as the first to be booted! We must have read the article at the same time on nbl.com.

I just tried to find the thread where everyone made their guess, but to no avail - you satisfied my curiosity though by posting so quickly. Did anyone else call Joiner?

I guess there will be people lining up for their second pick! Now that the season is two rounds old, does anyone else think some imports may be in the firing line if they don't perform or improve soon?

I personally don't think anyone stands out at this stage, although everyone will always look at Gruber from the Hawks due to his import status, but I understand he comes very cheap and they have him there as a role player not an "import" per se. Actually, now that I think of it, Storey's stats from NZ haven't been super impressive, and he certainly acted like a tool during the game last night. Anyone else want to sharpen their knives for Storey?

I was thinking Storey until I learned how good a defensive player he is.

Statman called Joiner as well, I'll find the thread.

Here's my revised list of imports most likely to be sacked.

1. S.Mills
2. K.Lisch
3. D.Gruber
4. A.Ubaka
5. C.Groves
6. A.Storey
7. R.Melzer
8. E.Maxey
9. R.Roberts
10. T.McKee
11. J.Gilchrist
12. R.Rickert
13. C.Williams

I heard this rumour on Friday night aftr the game - but thought it was BS. Joiner was actually quite good on Friday and has shown a massive improvement in his fitness as well.

Now my even bigger surprise is taht they have gone for someone smaller? We need a NIG (6'10" + please) enforcer to play in teh middle and allow Vandy to come off the bench....

Oh well - if we are bringing in a specialist SF it will hopefully allow Harvs to play at SG, but then we have 2 x PG's who should both be playing 30 mins a game each as well....doesnt leave much court time for poor Ty Demos who was left anchored to teh bench behind Dan J the last 2 seasons. Im sure Joey has a plan...but for the life of me I cant work it out!

I trust you meant BIG? That's very funny, in an accidentally true and inappropriate way. He he

Hahaha apologize to Jesse Jackson immediately.

I might have to offload Gibbo in our fanasy league...

Storey should go......just for the way he behaved against Sixers. Very poor..........almost Hodge like, except can't play as well. About the same degree of team spirit though!!!!!

Awvee seems a square peg in a round hole. Certainly doesn't seem an integral part of team at timeouts and seems to have attidunial problems (which we knew before hand)
Offensive skills are not good enough to carry team, but as a support act which is why why we brought him he is OK. He can rebound and play D. He seems to have the finger pointed at him because of a team malaise giving up dribble penetration.
I would feel a little better about him if he could post up and get something done down the stretch, but at the moment he doesn't seem to accept this role, and tries to contribute, usually not coming off.
I can't understand why we got that type of player in the first place, we desperately need points in paint.

Remember too that Awvee is actually our 1st pick import and must be getting the big dollars, which I don't think will sit too well with Rickert and others.
The balance of the team is all wrong.
Oscar now redundant.
We can't play Oscar and Ronaldson at same time.

Whoops - Isaac - Ill leave it to your discretion whether that typo gets fixed up - it most definately was not deliberate :) as thedoctor said - funny but very innapropriate

I can see Storey being the next one to go too...

Storey next for mine, as much for chemistry as the fact the Breakers need someone who can score, abd Storey can neither shoot nor score in the post.

I don't think the league needs any more "naggers". We hate those people.

Be careful there Michael Richards.

You see, words are like bullets...

Well this thread took an hilarious left turn out of nowhere.

It sure did. Keep up the good work Loco.
