I'm guessing the editors decided that "NBA preseason is unwatcheable" wouldn't bring in the hits.Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00853171476982157489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7557962466145687400.post-50455044916864194002008-10-14T17:04:00.000-05:002008-10-14T17:04:00.000-05:00I thought pre-season was when you tried out combos...I thought pre-season was when you tried out combos on the floor, assessed rookies, solidified roster spots, and generally did a bunch of stuff in a live game situation that you would never do in a match that counted in the standings.<BR/><BR/>When did this change? <BR/><BR/>Me, I'm thinking Von Wafer would be a useful D-league guy and injury call-up if need be. Also, the name - Von Wafer - is great. I think if he ends up making the team he needs a nickname like Baron Von Wafer, or Herr Doktor Von Wafer.<BR/><BR/>The Rockets want a good long look at Dorsey, too and that makes sense. He's an old rookie, like Landry, or Scola, so the sooner he's useful, the better. My question is, is there really room for Scola, Landry, Dorsey and Hayes? My sense is Dorsey is auditioning for Hayes' job. <BR/><BR/>I wonder what can Hayes do that Dorsey can't do better? This makes me feel bad for Hayes, who is a player I like a lot, but I think he'll land on his feet. He'd make an excellent Spur, unfortunately.Xianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03677200656995584995noreply@blogger.com
