Bill Simmons sports guy here, you had a great TC 7 guys had 30+ point improvements and only 2 guys regressed. Do you guys get a discount on deer antler spray because your logo contains well deer antlers?

There are rumor that Ron OPtest is thinking of changing his name to Metta World OPeace. How do you personally feel about this and do you think it will affect his on the court performance?

Most prognosticators have your team as the team to beat. Are you as confidence in your team as the outside world and if not, what do you feel this team may be lacking?

You look to be in the same situation next year as the magic are this year with the tax. What will you do to mitigate this ?

I'm sure they mean 6' 10" tall, but if they can't use Excel, they are pumping you trash. Who's reading this? Who's checking it? As far as I can tell, no one.
Just an observation, if you are confident in their analysis, go ahead, but those numbers look like Amare is about topped out unless some magic happens, but you seem to think there's good room to grow. Setting aside the height and where he was drafted, do you believe what your analytics tell you about Stoudamire? Either way, why?
Ah yes, that faulty formatting. It's something in the code. I don't know. It's some technical mumbo jumbo. But we developed a crosswalk to those weird settings to what we need to know.
Stoudemire was last years MIP. He also has another player on this team that will require many more shots in Chauncey. So his touches may be down this year, but he wholely expects that. Amare is a part of the greater whole, and he knows this. And he knows that we value him very highly and may look past his numbers

I heard your franchise was going to be changing its brand to the Orlando Debtors.

Our greatest weakness is probably financially. We may be pressed to make a move that is best for financial balance of the team... and it may or may not be the best basketball move.

See above. We have a few avenues we can entertain. Or we may have to let some people go. But that's not a focus for this moment in time. It will be addressed when the time is right. Also we are buying 5,000 powerball tickets

The guy who is already tires of this different name gimmick: What is your relationship with the Detroit Pistons? Does the rivalry still have the legs it once thrived on?

The rivalry with the pistons died once their previous GM departed
