    Feels good to be right again. Patterson and Morris (and their contracts) were not long for this Earth.

    I LOVE IT!

    Patterson is nothing we'll miss.

    He's off to a lame pro career, but I was high as can be on Robinson going into the draft. Maybe he doesn't come around, but hopefully getting out of a toxic environment lets him flourish. He has a better chance of handling the 3 behind Parsons than Morris did.

    WTF is all I can say. You guys lucked out with Robinson. He will probably have better success with you than Sacramento...our coaching and player development sucks.

    So much for not doing anything...

    If we don't do any other deals, I'm curious whom we will call up from the NBDL or elsewhere. Morey has a great track record at that.

    Patterson, two dead bodies and Mook the bust for T-Rob?

    Damn. That's a magic trade for the Rox. Good sign for Beverley, too
