I've enjoyed this board (here and on ESPN) for over 20 years.
I enjoyed the varied opinions on Rasho's value, Stephon's power play, Hollywood Robinson's amazing quarter, the Sealy shot etc...the internet was young and we were excited to find each other.
I loved this board because I didn't have a lot of friends that were as passionate about the NBA as I was and it was great to find like minded people.
Over the past 20 years we've frankly been dehumanized somewhat by these technologies that were originally intended to bring us together. Our brains have quite literally been somewhat re-programmed by algorithms more designed to increase engagement than improve the human condition and we've been rewarded intermittently for being rude in social media platforms that are not simple open boards like this one.
I say this because it seems like there's been an increase in posts that may be construed as "inconsiderate" and we see shit bleeding onto here from other digital realms....
Be kind now, people are more likely to actually hear your opinion.
And btw, looking back Rasho was mostly overvalued as he was an incomplete center even for the era.

The OP is probably one of those dumbies who thought Darko and Michael Beasley were about to have career rebirths in Minnesota.
