cap closer far light longer situation
We're inching closer and closer to the cap as we go into the future, but we're still not under the cap. But we're no longer in that situation where we're so far over that you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.

bottom commitment drafted fact floor forced high learn line onto people rookie somehow start starting takes talk transition won
That talk is ridiculous. Those are the same people who said Chauncey Billups was a bust. The fact is, it takes a while in the NBA, and it takes a while to make the transition from high school. The bottom line is, when we drafted him, there wasn't any commitment to play him in his rookie year, he was going to sit and learn from the veterans. Yet, somehow he forced his way onto the floor through way of practices. And this year, there was no commitment to start him, but somehow he won the starting job. Then he got injured.

But I will not really attempt to describe this long period of time but rather avoid embarrassment by simply omitting to give the details of truly personal type.

The mental disturbances originated in the early months of 1959, at a time when Alicia happened to be pregnant. And as a consequence I resigned my position as a faculty member at M.I.T. and, ultimately... travelled to Europe and attempted to gain status there as a refugee.
