Same for Portland taking on LaFrenz's contract. Ainge lucked out there, but if either Oden or Thomas don't declare and he ends up with the #2 pick, it won't end well for him in Boston. Delonte West is nice, but there's something about his decisionmaking that makes me cringe. This year has to be the low point. If it's not, and we're this bad for years to come, then the entire experiment was for not. Paul Pierce...I'd rather have him than Garnett...it sounds crazy, but I believe in this guy.

Delonte West is nice, but there’s something about his decisionmaking that makes me cringe. This year has to be the low point. If it’s not, and we’re this bad for years to come, then the entire experiment was for not.

Paul Pierce…I’d rather have him than Garnett…it sounds crazy, but I believe in this guy.

Your stuff is great over here too. We'll continue to do everything we can to stir the pot! I finally saw the last White Rapper show. I did like John Brown's car wars bit, but Shamrock was great with his act as well. His pointing thing was off the hook! As a Timberwolves fan, you're welcome for that number one pick too. McHale was a great player, shitty front office guy. Thanks for the mad props! Your stuff is great over here too. We’ll continue to do everything we can to stir the pot!

That he attributed his learning of Plame from Russert was what I thought would sink him. I don't know...the defense wasn't really able to refute testimony, but rather it was the opening and closing statements where the 'I forgot' defense was presented mostly. Not being in the courtroom and just relying on transcripts, maybe I missed something, but this one seemed easy compared to other criminal trials I've followed over the years.

If they have to think this hard about whether he lied or not -- a simple question -- then the defense has done its job: make a simple question hard to answer.
