    I don't think I am the oldest around here but I do remember when Jerry West was a rookie, and I ain't lying!!

    Sad thought, I really liked alot of those guys. I do wonder where great posters like therealdeal are. I'm in my 40's and at times I forget that there are posters here with whole generations of viewing more than me. Kudos!

    Real was a good dude to have around. It seemed he made a cameo ever once in a while.

    Do you remember when he was pushing for Westbrook really hard and a lot of us were against it. I know I pushed back pretty hard. He disappeared not long after that if I remember right. Which is about 50/50.

    I remember getting into it with him about Lonzo. I wanted to add Kuzma to the AD trade and keep Ingram. He was adamant we should keep Lonzo. Good times - would be great to get more posters who are active like that.

    And the all time discussion on whether The Last Jedi was any good at all - I argued it was rubbish hehe. Good times!
