Cool, this is good news. Having another defense-minded backup is definitely nothing to scoff at.

Thanks for the heads up.

I hope gets to play some, but with the depth of our bench, he may only show up at the end of a blow out

Guess that means Ariza ain't coming back.

I dont think its a direct correlation, it may merely be insurance

well first you have to be going about the same speed, check you mirrors, look over your shoulder and if there is space turn on your blinker and gradually slide on in...
if there's no space try plan b.
by speeding up and shooting into the first gap you see, don't use your blinkers because you know the second you turn the damn thing on some ass is going to speed up and try and block you off... if you have to swap a little paint that's all good "rubbins racing" as they say and don't forget merging is a blood sport! only the strong survive...

stay tuned for gts's traffic tips, next week "yellow lights do they really mean be careful?"
