People bash the Pick, but Donnie and MDA are trying to bring in guys that understand Team BB. They've seen enough of the selfish players and so we have a guy that plays with a sense of team and if we had more of that like we did tonight we'd be winning a LOT more games.
The "Gallo is a bust" is a thing that really never existed in the first place.
Many of us were very upset with the back situation, the lack of information, the constant "will re-evaluate in 2 weeks", watching him hobble, grimmace, etc... and let us face facts, THAT ISNT OVER WITH.
However, I don't know anyone that denied that he had great skills.
So you guys need to chill with the whole "GALLO HAD A GREAT GAME LOL HATERS FALL BACK U FOOLS I TOLD YOU!!!" crap because nobody ever said anything that would warrant such a crusade.
Gallo had me hooked with that 3rd quarter summer league game outburst. I knew he had skills right then and there. It's the back that worried me and pissed me off to no end last year...and still worries me.
To turn that into "Yeah you're a hater, you called Gallo a bust!" well then that's on you guys but that's unwarranted and that's not what most any poster was saying (there's always a few that bash because that is what they do).
dude, there were plenty of people around here calling Gallo a bust before he ever played a game in the NBA... just cuz u weren't 1 of them doesn't mean they weren't around calling him the next Boki Nachbar & dissing on his stiff legs, crossed eyes & the fact that the Euro Leagues were inferior competition compared to the NCAA's in their eyes... go ahead & read over the draft threads from last year if u like... i'm not gonna go back & bump them, everyone knows what i'm talking about here.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
