so what you are saying is you were making dinner and you got... a phone call? You then answered the phone to a voice that said Jeff Green is coming back? Then you hung up the phone? You didnt ask a single question, like how do you know? How does this person know? You did say its the highest source, was it Jeff Green? John Thompson? I think when Mr. Sixer said, "I'm Not going into details," he was trying to give a subtle hint that he didn't want to go into the details.

Also, why would Jeff cancel a workout??? It makes sense for him to go through it and get feedback and see how it goes. Even if he has decided to come back nothing bad can come from it. It's not like Jeff would be doing the workout and then saying "sorry, you suck, I'm not entering" Who said he was canceling the workout? ? This is deleted asinine This is the last time i share anything on this board Unreal! deleted learn how to read for crying out loud

Actually i think Krey was responding to someone who said that if you were right he would cancel the work out. He wasnt saying that the workout was canceled.

Jeff would never cancel a free performance evaluation from an nba scout who is spending his teams time and money to travel to DC exclusively for him

> Am I senile or did the press conference discussion begin with a mrsixer sendoff to Jeff and Roy? I don't know why people (not you in particular, sleepy) treated the earlier press conference like a be-all-end-all NBA announcement. He has about 10 1/2 days to make a final decision by my count. I'd expect something by then. If not, no news is good news. Cohoya, U may not be senile, but u are ignorant when it comes receiving info prior to any media outlet. When u receive such info, u don't ask questions, u say thank and move on. When I received word of the press conference I assumed both guys were history. Excuse me for trying to keep true fans informed, deleted FYI - your personal attack was directed towards the wrong person (i.e. me). Please read more careful before casting invectives.

Fool me twice, shame on me Once again, leave the name calling out of your posts. For future reference, when you post 'inside info' information without naming a source or providing a link, you must expect that others will question it.

Oh, and i seem to remember you broke the press confrence announcement before anyone else, is this the same source? A much higher power. Now, jeff could still change his mind but I would bet my mortgage that he stays. Is this like when you bet me $1000? ;D Btw, I still haven't gotten it. I'd really like a new TV, so could you please remit it post haste?

Mr Sixer,
I know I appreciate you sharing what you know with us.
I think everyone is just very excited and some of that excitement translates into stupid questions, or requests for more information when you already stated no details.
I was guilty of it too. But I think its safe to say we are all grateful.

Excuse me for trying to keep true fans informed, donkey Wow, picked the wrong day not to check the site. First off, thanks for sharing. I hope you are right. Second, maybe this is how you handle "information" that you receive prior to any media outlet. I, on the other hand, would be damn sure to ask how the person knows, or what changed, or when it would be announced, or SOMETHING. Especially when it is something that I -- and presumably you -- care so much about. So yeah, maybe people were unnecessarily skeptical of you MrSixer, but your vitriol is no more endearing than anyone else's skepticism.

So I was making myself a late night snack (banana sundae, of course), and a "source" inside the refrigerator told me that Jeff is coming back. Now, I realize that I didn't get this by text (as Mr. Sixer did), but I'm considering this a done deal.
Oh yes, and my friend's aunt is a janitor at Wachovia center, and he said that she said she found scribbled note on the floor of Billly King's office saying "Darn -- looks like we're wasting our time on the Green workout of Friday now that he's decided to return to school to win a national championship. I wonder if that Josh McRoberts will still be around for the 12th pick."

I forgot to thank you for adding to my name. It makes me feel like I'm in fifth grade again.
Seriously though, I appreciate whatever INFORMATION you can offer to the board. When you know about a press conference before it's announced and you decide to share the news of its existence, that's a noble thing.
When you speculate as to the content of said press conference, then you're just speculating. You don't need to ask further questions when you hear about a press conference, but to assume the result of the conference isn't very safe.
In the case of this "announcement," it's fine to say "I heard it from someone that Jeff will be staying." But before hearing it from the horse's mouth, it's all speculation to me. Ultimately I will note that you have reported this before its official reporting, but I refuse to be led one way or another based on anything but an official announcement.
