And if you notice guess who else is

Represented by this same agent, they are on this team too


What a freakin joke, you've got to be kidding me


http://hoopshype.com/agents/mark_bartelstein.htm


I knew there was a connection that was agent related

So in a round about way this is almost CAA esque on a smaller scale


I also recall when Phil addressed the media a couple weeks ago

About the season he mentioned agents have communicated to him


New York is still a desirable place for free agents and

He believes they will be able to sign someone


This led me to hone in on this theory of why

We've all of a sudden propped up Lou and Lance after not waiving them


Phil is looking for a summer favor, no doubt about it now

I wouldn't say this is a bad thing to get on the good side of agents just before you would hope to be luring in their clients. It's not the same thing as being controlled by one large Firm. This is just normal business. Scratching backs isn't necessarily a bad thing.

He actually,played his part tonight... He's not a bad back up for 15 a night he hustles and brings energy that's exactly what you want from your back up center

I think Phil wants to bring in professionals. Lou and Lance seemed to have picked up the offense faster than the guys already here. Both are journeyman. Lance has a rep for being great in the locker room. Lou has played hard for like 10 different teams in his career. They both came in and have been pros. We need talent, but we need guys to punch in their clocks and go to work without an agenda. This is why I think they were brought in here.

Poor F500 thinks he cracked the Da VInchi Code and at the same time verified the Illuminatti with his CAA black ops conspiracy!

Which begs to question why the Triangle Moth Dust

Didn't take hold on the rest of team


It works for guys like them because they are entry points

To run the system but they are not asked to convert within the system


The roles are galactic in nature to other players, does Lance or Lou run it any better than

Cole-Acy-Wear-Smith no they don't, they're bringing slightly more energy


Well of course they don't want to be on the curb

With a "why lie i need a beer sign"


Seems like Phil needs more than his presence and 13 rings

To put a hex on dudes, he needs help like all other execs in this league


He would have had us all duped he was of a different fabric though

exactly.. Amundson is pretty good. Some would say he's played for 10 teams and never caught on. Others would notice that 10 teams have given him play. Everyone likes him, he plays hard and knows his role.

Or we could spin it into playa2 land of CAA conspiracy.

No, Amundson is a nice hustle player and continues to be. Well challange a lot of shots. He's as good as Turiaf some people here loved that guy. Dont be suprised if he's on the roster next year. Not every slot should be used on magical growing beans with upside. Amundson knows how to play.

He's had 10 day contracts before, we're not the first team to give one to him

So if he knows his role and done all the things teams need


No way he would be on his 10th team in 9yrs

Math is math even with these metrics

Since we all know your an old poster can you just type normally now?

Amundson is good. Knows how to play a role. He's not sexy and doesnt score but at 32 is still playing in the NBA. Not sure what the point is in making this more than what it is. We need cheap guys next year who can play. He could be one of them.

He's not someone you need to review on 10 day contracts

A known commodity in this league, who can be signed at vet minimum whenever the time arrives


We could have asked him to go to our D-League team if he

Really wanted to earn his way on to a roster, and he's still a liability on offense


Oh and I can always make this real personal with you if you like

I'd rather keep the conversation where it should be

F500, so your saying he is here NOT because of basketball related talent?

Economics and perpetuate some accounting that adds up for you?

Like: "500 reasons why melo is not good for this team"?

Reason number 289: The Lou Amundson conspiracy
We deduct: Phil Jax mind control cannot work on agents!!! He is losing his "Mutant" powers to persuade.
Recomendation: Reset the clock back and don't resign Melo.

Good job F500!

me too. Like on the same line.

10 day contracts arent something to be used if to see if a guy fits in your system or his personality fits with your coach? Your making zero sense.

No I'm making sense but as you fish-flop into 2 line spaced typing with me

We did this with Shannon Brown and MbengedOn where are they now


We should be more interested in looking at players with upside

Or the ones who we sacrificed assets for to know if they will be here long-term


There's nothing to figure out with Lou or Lance
