    That's so good. Here's another: If someone hasn't asked for editorial help, don't impose oneself in that capacity. Because it can make one come across as a total

    Well, when he goes into "stream of consciossness" mode, yeah, but not all his works are like that. Check out "As I Lay Dying." He plays with the reader about who the protagonist and antagonist are, like a who dunnit, as the story unfolds. Never read anything like it, Big win, that one is...

    Steinbeck's writing is "flowery?" LOL. Now, if you want to talk about Henry James or Joseph Conrad, then I can understand. But Steinbeck, seriously? "Technical writing" may not be the goal of every writer or considered by everyone the apex of writing styles for all situations.

    Steinbeck is my favorite American author, but Faulkner's "As I Lay Dying" is da bomb. Hemingway ... meh. My posts are not for everyone, not for those who have succumbed to paragraph-a-phobia. Feel free to skip, 'cause I ain't changing.

    Another question is how much of Miles Kelly's difficulties being a mainstay player last season had to do with Stoudamire's system? I wonder if Pearl will run a ton of double screens for Kelly and make more of an effort to get him open looks than we did?

    G Good! Let's get down to definitions for clarity. I would differentiate role players from mainstay players by the following: A mainstay player will be the focus of the opposition game planning, but the player produces numbers in the teeth of the opposition's efforts to contain that player...

    You are right. But, role players can be starters. Johnny McNeil was a role player, Anthony McHenry was a role player, Q. Stephens was a role player, Anthony Morrow was a role player. They are important players on winning teams but just not players that can get their own shots, or win the...

    He'll be a role player there, which is his natural role. His shooting range means he can create spacing for an offense. There is value in that. If he moves on to some pro league, he will be a role player there also. But if he was a foundational, all-around player that can take control and...

    Head coach and General Manager. Coming out of the NBA, this should not be outside Stoudamire's comfort zone.

    If you look at the players who can take those minutes, it doesn't look so bad. Was Miles Kelly processed or was Gt out-bid for a free agent?
  15. Baye Declares for NBA; Retaining Eligibility

    Correct. I guess that it would be a dilemma if the team is better with him playing a position that is not the one he projects at the next level.
