What a great attitude:

So Porzingis laid awake in his bedroom in Sevilla, Spain, and thought to himself, “'When I’m sleeping, someone else is working out.' I’d think that I better get in my work the next day, because I’m already behind.”

Oh look, a young 7-footer who talks a good game. Draft him #1 overall. No, wait, that's Michael Olowokandi I'm thinking about.

Who was the guy on this blog who was pushing him so hard last year before Porzingis withdrew his name?  Someone here was infautated with him.  That blogger deserves some credit as it seems scouts have now caught up and think Porzingis has the potential for stardom.

The conceited, racist guy who got himself banned?  I remember that guy was really big on a few of the Euros.

Either that, or Andy Miller is earning his money.

Lol.  I don't know about that.  Someone here really like him last year, almost obsessed with him.  If it was the guy you are referring to, I have no idea.  What was the name of the racist who got banned?

I was pushing him hard last season, so keep the TP's rolling in, thank you very much.

My observations are that fans from the Baltics often think their players are the greatest thing since sliced bread. It's just the way some of those folks are wired.

Danny wanted to draft him at #17 last year, isn't it?

I gave you a TP, but I don't think you are the one I'm referring to.  It may very well be the guy kozlodoev is referring to as I remember the guy was very argumentative.

Yes, I'm pretty sure that's who I'm thinking of.  Is that the guy who was banned?

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
