The Goat Pen

I keep hearing that Trey Burke might actually slide to the 8th spot. I've got my fingers crossed.... Rough fucking week. He fell. Joe D went for a SG instead. I'm still a little bit in shock. Then he caps off the week by not buying out Rodney Stuckey. Stuckey has talent but I don't think he's gotte...

I know he still has fewer rings but I'd say LeBron has now passed Kobe in the all-timer rankings. He's just better.

Scottie Pippen finally finds somebody that he could take on:

I think it's okay to laugh at your own.

Thanks guys. I have mixed emotions about him so far. He seems to be a settling influence on offense and has been hitting over 50% of his 3's but I just don't want to see the Pistons overpay him this summer. I also thought they were pulling the plug just a little too early on Brandon Knight being a P...

Now that we in Pistonland have El Matador, I'm wondering what it was that you guys hated so much about him. Was it his lack of D or something in addition to that?

You never know. For better or worse, they are heading there. Missing Brandon Knight along with Drummond means they'll be diving fast. Oladipo would be very useful for Detroit's needs. Possibly Otto Porter Jr. too or Trey Burke, if the Pistons don't resign Jose. If Marcus Smart could shoot, I'd be ve...

Drummond is out 4-6 weeks with a stress fracture in his tailbone. What a pisser.

Time to chase down some ping-pong balls in the lottery!

Speaking of money in the $EC:

FWIW- Drummond measured at 6'11.75" (in shoes, which is usually how they list guys) at the pre-draft camp. However, he's currently hampered with back problems. He didn't play the 2nd half vs. the Knicks and just left the game tonight after giving it a go for 4 minutes. The Pistons are up 13 in ...

I guess Stern disagreed. Crazy Ron is out for the next game.

As a fan of a team that's had Rasheed and Rodman on it, I know that sometimes the reputation overshadows the incident. It wasn't much of a punch but the guy throwing it clouds that judgement.

It's not much. It's just because it's Crazy Ron at the Palace that I think something might happen. A reputation fine.

Earl looks like he might finally be becoming a NBA player.

I'm also wondering if Crazy Ron will be getting in further trouble for that punch. It wasn't much of one but it's Crazy Ron, in the Palace.

Andre needed to go up with two-hands on that oop. It would've been the perfect finish to that game. It was still exciting.

Guy on the crapper kind of looks like Jazzy Jeff.
