The Lopez injury is noted, but he still only averaged 5 rebounds a game the season before where he played all 82. As for Johnson, I just would have tried to get someone a little better to spend 19 million on. He makes nobody better around him.

They got 1 of the best PGs in the NBA to make people around him better, that isn't really Johnson's role. He is gonna score 18-19 a game and stroke 3s on this team though.

The "could of spent 19 million" a little better on tells me you probably don't understand how the NBA salary cap works and the fact there were no FAs they could sign. He is still a low-end all star shooting guard that shot 48% from 3pt land the last time he played with an all-star PG. I dunno, we'll see what happens...Maybe Indiana, Philly and Chicago w/o DRose for 45 games will all be better.

Kid said said we would both pay betall and he would let me know when. Never let me know when even though I have PM'd him a few times.

C'mon kid, lets get this going....We both agreed to it.

Hate to post this here but he hasn't responded to my PMs.

Wow I'm happy this idiot stiffed me on posting up for our bet cause the Nets look like shit although with Bynum dead and Rose not due back for a bit there is a good chance they still get top 6 seed in the east as long as they stay relatively healthy.

Never rule Boston out. They will be tough to beat in the playoffs as usual.

Im bumping this...3 years later.

I just logged on to this site for the first time in a very long time. I was curious who the sponsors were and I have been thinking about posting up for football season. I decided to look at my inbox and saw some messages between PatsFan and myself from about 4 years ago. I then did a search and saw a thread where I was called a stiff because I agreed to a bet but did not send the money to BetAll. We went back and forth, I was called an angle shooter, etc. In the fall of 2012 I got married, went on a honeymoon, moved from Michigan to St. Louis, took the bar exam, passed the bar exam, got a job at a law firm and apparently made a bet with PatsFan regarding how the Nets would finish in the upcoming 2012-2013 NBA season. We had an agreement on who would hold the money. Nobody sent the money. I was called a stiff and an angle shooter. While I do not agree that I was trying to do any of those things, I honestly do not remember all of the details.

In reading the thread, some agreed with me, Chop did not. We had decided to cancel the bet. I left the site. I had a job in a law firm where I was not allowed to use the internet for anything personal. I worked 80 hours a week and my Rx life no longer existed because I simply did not have time. I noticed today that PatsFan came back a few days later after we cancelled the bet to tell me the bet was still on if I wanted it. I never saw that post. In fact, I did not see that post until today. After reading through the old threads today, I have come to a few conclusions. I could have handled this ordeal better back then. We had a bet. A condition of the bet was to send money for BAS to hold. Neither of us did that. I was not around a lot, but in my mind believed we still had a bet. PatsFan did not think we had a bet because a condition of the bet was not met. I don't really agree with that since the only condition was to have BAS hold money. It did not change the fact that I did not think the Nets would be a top 6 seed and they were.

Look, I don't know PatsFan. In fact, I do not personally know any of you. I have no clue how often I will continue to come and go on this site, but I do know this site gave me quite a bit of fun and information while I was active on a few years ago. All that really matters is now is whether or not I believe we had a bet and I do believe we did. Some may still call me a stiff and that is fine, but I would like to make good on the bet that I lost 3 years ago. If Pats wants to get on here and PM me his address or preferably his ****** address (if he has one), then I will send him the money immediately. He won the bet. I honestly had forgotten all about it until today, and I apologize for that, but I do want to make good.
