[Gronk sent a tweet] Well...didn't see that coming. I was sure that either me or @MTaylor3 would win ROTY. Congratulations, man.

"Glad to say that I have put aside my differences with @Gronk4M13, and I now have my twitter back. Congrats to @SaadShaihk23 for winning ROTY. This season was very humbling and I learned from my mistakes. Can't wait for the next one. #ImReady #reborn #MalikT4MVP"

[Gronk sent a tweet] Yes, everyone, @MTaylor3 and I put aside our differences. Maybe...just maybe..we'll be friends one day. I guess this season just wasn't my year. @BobcatNation, @NBAFans, get ready. Next year, I'm taking the league by storm. #GetReady #ItBegins

Press Conference with Peyton Henry about "The Feud"

Question 1: How do you feel about the feud between Gronk and Tyler?

Question 2: Do you think this will effect all the C.A.P's?

Question 3: Do you enjoy playing for Memphis, averaging 21.9 minutes per game?

Question 4: Who would you love to 1v1 (C.A.P's only)

Question 5: Vote - Gronk or Tyler?


Peyton Henry:
Q1: Well, I think it is unnecessary. Sure, it's entertaining to watch unfold, but they took it to another level, getting their own Twitter accounts deactivated because they can't control themselves.

Q2: It will affect the rookies across the NBA. If two rookies do it, more will be sure to follow. I tried to simmer it down, but obviously Gronk wasn't having none of that.

Q3: Of course! Playing almost 22 minutes as a rookie is a huge deal to me. I am honored. I hope I can improve every year on the way to the Hall of Fame. That's my goal.

Q4: Rob Holt of the Pistons. I'd love to see who the better rookie Center is between us. If the opportunity comes to face him 1 on 1, I will jump on it.

Q5: To be honest, I just want it to end. I don't care who wins, sorry. Just finish it in the court fellas. Quickly.

Press Conference with #1 draft pick, Saad Shaikh (pre-sim)

Question 1: Being a #1 pick, do you feel that you will earn Rookie Of The Year?

Question 2: How did it feel to get traded on draft day, and then again to the Nuggets from Boston?

Question 3: Any pre-game rituals?

Question 4: You're currently at 33-20 with the playoffs in sight. Do you like playing for a team in a playoff race?

Question 5: Averaging 18 minutes per game, do you think this "Strained Hamstring" will affect your chances on winning ROTY?


Shaikh

1 - Yes, I have to win it. Most #1 always win it, so why not win it? I needa work hard for it.

2 - It was crazy. Packing my bags, then unpacking, then packing, and again unpacking. Well it's just life.

3 - A D-Wade Dunk, putting head through the rim.

4- Oh yes, we will work hard to even get to the NBA Finals, IDC what it takes, we will try our best!

5 - I'm currently working on it, you know, I'm practicing a lot. I NEED that ROTY

Press Conference with Paul Thursday of the Dallas Mavericks

Question 1: How does it feel to be the first C.A.P to record a triple-double (17 pts, 11 reb, 10 ast)
Thursday: Great, statsiscs though are really nothing... At the end of the day it's all about wins.
I just want to win, if that comes by me scoring maybe 6 points a game then so be it.
50 years from now id rather tell me grand kids I had 10 rings rather than average 25 and have no rings.

Question 2: You are now a starter for Dallas. Thoughts?
Thursday: I'm living my dream... I've wanted to do this since I was 6.
We're a great team and every needs to expect BIG

Question 3: Last year, you were injured during the rising stars game, do you think you'll make it this year?
Thursday: I don't know. I hope to be! It's always been a good event and it'll be great to participate in.

Question 4: Who do you hope joins the Mavericks in the near future?
Thursday: I love our current team. Whoever the GM decides to bring in though will have my respect.


Question 5: After that amazing game against Shaikh and Denver, how did you celebrate?
Thursday: Go home.. Look at footage and see what I could've done better.
I'm one who follows the motto
"Hard word beats talent when talent doesn't work hard." I want to be the best in this league.

Gronk on the move; Heads to Boston

Colin Gronk of the Charlotte Bobcats has been sent to the Boston Celtics with a 2015 2nd round pick in exchange for Jordan Crawford and Darren Torres. This move allows Boston to clear up some cap room (Crawford: 5yrs | $40.05M) and receive back blooming talent.

"We are happy to have Colin Gronk. We feel that he can help our team win games, and he is a great save for cap space. We feel that he deserved the playing time, which Charlotte didn't give him. We hope to see him excel quickly, as he has a team option at the end of this year." - Boston GM

Gronk is expected to become a starter at SG or SF for Boston.
Stat line: 10.1 MPG, 3.3 PPG, 1.3 RPG, 0.9 APG

This comes to a surprise to everyone, as Crawford just re-signed this past off season. Many people feel that the Celtics, after losing Pierce and Garnett, are looking to rebuild.



-- Gronk's 1st game as a Celtic against OKC. | 38 min, 20 pts, 6 reb, 7 ast, 2 stl, 3 TO | - Seems like Bobcats missed out!
