is to show Glen Davis what happens when you eat your way out of the NBA. I truly believe Ainge brought in Sweetney for that reason.

Like I said in another thread, it's like bringing the paralyzed guy in to speak to the class about the dangers of drunk driving.

I saw Mike Sweetney for the first time tonight.  :o

Let's just say....I can't help but think that OP may be on to something.

I thought Shelden looked awful tonight--terrified whenever he got the ball and his shot looked like it had zero chance of going in.  He certainly isn't even close to Leon --just can't see him ever making it into a game.

Yeah, Sheldon didn't look as comfortable out there tonight, but he barely had time to warm up (not that even in the best-case, he plays a lot more for us during the season than he did tonight). 

Sheldon isn't going anywhere, though, and the decision whether to keep Sweetney or not is entirely based on whether they have any faith he'll play himself into shape by the end of the season.  I can't see them spending a roster spot on a guy who is completely a project right now.

I agree on Sweetney he just is to overweight to make the team.

He needs to change his jersey number to BBD's old "11" - the vertical lines are slimming!

i honestly dont understand how if you have the chance to make millions of dollars you cant stay in shape. Higher a trainer and nutritionist. Its a once in a lifetime opportunity and its sad to see it blown.

Totally! (love this - TP) ... although I think he'd need to be #1,111 for it to make much difference, lol!

Maybe there are exercises you can do to develop empathy so that you can understand.
