I fell for that once. But this time, *I* picked some hot young talent and one in particular has been working out great so far. Now I gotta decide whether I think it'll continue or not.......
That's not always my strategy.
We made a trade like that once that looked good on paper. It just didn't happen to work out for you.
You didn't "fall" for anything. You were getting a bunch of players in that deal who were better than what you had, and if you remember I showed you with their scoring averages that you were improving your team.
It just so happens that the guys I traded you started doing worse, and Lebron started doing better.
If everyone would have kept playing at the same level they were at, it would have been a fair trade.
Who was it you wanted for Ponson again, JL? I forgot :p .
