I ran into LST and his wife in Vegas during this year's Summer League. Great people! LST isn't posting, but he's reading our posts from time to time. Maybe he'll return some day.

Good to know he's alive! This forum has as many or more passionate and knowledgeable basketball fans as any other community. With that said, though, LST and his takes are dearly missed. I consider him one of the true originals of this board and would love to have him back.

If you're reading this, LST, make your return!

Not always. Remember the Houston Rockets teams with Drexler, Barkley and Olajuwaon? They basically created a triangle on one side of the court... and nobody moved. They'd just take turns posting up, passing out and either shooting or dumping it back in for better positioning.

It was three HOFers... playing insufferably boring basketball.
