After getting Nels to give him an interview, NBA Rotoman finally hunted me down to be a part of the latest edition of "Buy or Sell", where we discuss pretty much the entire Miami Heat team as well as a New York Knick that you probably hate (the answer isn't all of them).

It’s bad enough the Sixers ended their 2008-2009 on a low note, after getting blown out but the Orlando Magic 114-89, but was it necessary for their backup center/11th man on the bench to come out and rip the coach after the loss? Theo Ratliff was the last player to leave the locker...
