Because that strikes me as an incredibly absurd claim.
My posts are mostly on another site. But yes, a significant segment of us saw it from the beginning and posted it. The only thing that caught me off guard was Dwight NOT going to Brooklyn. That was weird and inexplicable that he waived his ETO at the deadline. Chris Paul was never a realistic possibility. As DLord can tell you, I was slapping down his 3D and Dwight-to-Dallas BS from the outset. What exact percentage of tuned-in fans sided with me I can't tell you exactly, but there was a moderately-sized minority that agreed.
