Did you hear the Titanic sank?

no but last week i heard roy will never play again

 

[SoulPlaya]

Could someone explain to me why the Warriors would trade Lee and Curry for Gasol and Artest?

 

[PhoenixDawn]

As long as it isn't the work of Kahn having some secret meeting with the Lakers while they are in MN, I'll be ok with the trade. Wolves don't need to give up the crazy amount of young players that were in that rumored Gasol trade from earlier...

On a happier note, I'm pumped for this white out game tonight! TC should be rocking especially hard with LA in town and the special event night.

 

[Alrix]

yahoo saying Utah vs Philly for me. NYJ vs Charlotte would be so bad.




So much for that theory about Dirk, brandi. New CBA eliminated all restructures.

I didn't know the Jets play in the NBA.

http://espn.go.com/nba/schedule says NJN/CHA on nbaTV.

Don't worry everyone in the know, knows it's DWill and Humphries for Blake and Gasol.

primarily looking at D Lee's contract.
iirc, has 5yrs left and $11 million and up for the remaining.

You really wanna play the "he still mad" card with a guy whose franchise has 4 rings during the same time your franchise was the joke of the league under Isiah Thomas?

To be fair, the first ring the Spurs got was over the Knicks, meaning we weren't the joke of the league at that time, so they only have 3 rings during the time that we were the joke of the league.

Also, Isiah took over the Knicks in december 2003, which was after the Spurs won their second ring, so that means they only won two while Isiah was busy ruining the Knicks.

Holy shit, his contract is that huge? Then, why would the Lakers want him? The lineup with Lee and Curry isn't going to win a title, and you want to be stuck with Lee for that long? That's worse than Boozer's situation, lol.

EDIT: Nevermind, they could just amnesty him.

I tihnk Id rather have curry+lee than watson+boozer.

 

[diehard]

Lee's contract is fine for the next couple years. Those last 2 years @ 15 mil are painful though.

 

[SoulPlaya]

I tihnk Id rather have curry+lee than watson+boozer.

Boozer is better, and his contract is a year shorter than Lee's. Curry is also injury prone.

 

[giri]

The only reason it happens is mark jackson. He's been wanting a skilled big ever since he got the job.

Boozer is better, and his contract is a year shorter than Lee's. Curry is also injury prone.

Curry is also the best player out of all 4.

 

[diehard]

Boozer is better, and his contract is a year shorter than Lee's. Curry is also injury prone.

Highly, highly debatable. Curry is good, you take a chance on him.

yeah, that trade is looking might sexy with the amnesty.

we get to see more of curry's mom at staples.
you can't beat that.

 

[Black Mamba]

Larry Coon
Still no confirmation on anything Gasol related -- and I checked with one of the best-connected people I know. GMs call HIM to find out.

Boozer is better, and his contract is a year shorter than Lee's. Curry is also injury prone.

get this. Pau is a lot better than Boozer and better contract. And Watson isn't worth the downgrade.

 

[Gully State]

Lacob isn't going to trade David Lee..quote from Lacob a week ago assessing the Warriors' first half

David Lee has had a very good season and outplays his opposite number virtually every game.

 

[SoulPlaya]

get this. Pau is a lot better than Boozer and better contract. And Watson isn't worth the downgrade.

Well, yeah. We're talking Lee/Curry here, though.

 

[SoulPlaya]

That is true. I wonder what Watson's mom looks like.

 

[Black Mamba]

Well, yeah. We're talking Lee/Curry here, though.

And dumping MWP.

I'll do Pau + MWP for Boozer, Gibson, Watson, and Brewer. Maybe.

NBA Logo.

Deal.

Bulls could sign Mike James back, and they get an OK backup for Deng so he can finally rest a bit more. Losing Brewer will be tough, and it'll be a major gamble on Rip, but if we're going all for it this year, then I would do it. Though, those numbers don't work, I believe.

EDIT: Nevermind, numbers work.

EDIT2: Wait a minute, Artest is signed for another 3 years? Damn you guys gave him a terrible contract. This trade really is win or bust for the Bulls this year, lol.

 

[SUPREME1]

That is true. I wonder what Watson's mom looks like.

Like Boozer minus the shoe polish.

 

[Black Mamba]

The Rockets, who also are exploring scenarios that would bring Dwight Howard to Houston on the hope that he could be persuaded to stay beyond this season, have been assertive in their pursuit of Gasol

Nothing has heated up yet for the Trail Blazers, who have three players attracting interest on the trade market: Jamal Crawford, Raymond Felton and Gerald Wallace. One league source said the Blazers have made it clear they're accepting offers for Wallace.

The Cavs have been "aggressive" in seeking future assets for veteran Antawn Jamison, who has earned praise throughout the organization for his professional approach to being part of Cleveland's rebuilding plan, league sources said. Jamison has never complained or asked to be traded, but one team that intrigues his camp is the Lakers. The Cavs and Lakers spoke this week, but L.A. did not express serious interest in Jamsion, one of the sources said.

uhhhhh

In addition to Michael Beasley, who is on the radar for the Lakers, Celtics, Magic and Nets, the Timberwolves are gaging interest in Anthony Tolliver and Wayne Ellington, sources said.

GET ON THE PHONES GMS! ELLINGTON AND TOLLIVER ON THE BLOCK

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏
Lakers front office telling people that "nothing is happening" with Pau Gasol, league sources say. For now, anyway.

no thanks.

 

[SoulPlaya]

Come on Kado, you want Lee?

 

[Herpes Reasons]

Come on Kado, you want Lee?

its a question of principles.
which is the bigger headache.

i'd have to worry about my kidneys being shot to hell if boozer comes to LA

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Come on Kado, you want Lee?

Leave us alone, no one wants stupid Boozer.

 

[charsace]

Knicks teamwork!

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Knicks teamwork!

Why are they chillin' at the club, did they break .500?

 

[SoulPlaya]

You fucks would be lucky, lucky I say, if you ended up with Boozer!!! The Boozer Defense Force doesn't have to take this! Have fun with Lee!!

 

[jordan0386]

At least they have chemistry.

Hopefully it flows to road games.

Lakers fan think Houston taking PoS' contract from hell isn't enough and are demanding Top 3 Western Point Guard Kyle Lowry in return.

Amazing.

A. If you're starting a "Which Players Peaked With the Best Four-Year Runs?" discussion, you'd have to include 1984-87 Bird (3 MVPs, 2 titles); 1987-90 Magic (3 MVPs, 2 titles); 1990-93 Jordan (2 MVPs, 3 titles);17 1961-64 Russell (3 straight MVPs, 4 titles); 1965-1968 Wilt (3 straight MVPs, 1 title); and 1971-74 Kareem (3 MVPs, 1 title).

B. LeBron would have a chance for four straight MVPs if The Decision didn't unleash last spring's "I just don't feel right about voting for him, I'm picking Derrick Rose" backlash that eventually corrupted too many voters and media people. Including me. Nobody has ever won four straight MVP awards. 2009-12 LeBron and 1990-93 Jordan probably came the closest. And Russell was the only one who won four MVPs in five years.

C. You may have noticed that everyone else on that "three MVPs in four years" list won at least one title. So if Miami blows the title this spring, LeBron really will be making history. No pressure or anything.

Simmons mentions Nash + gortat for Bynum.

I would do that.

Nash
Kobe
MWP/Barnes
Pau
Gortat.

That's a contender. DO IT MITCH.

That's fucking highway robbery and the Phoenix Suns should be contracted if they let that happen. Veto that shit Stern if it happens. Fuck you, Sarver, don't let that happen.
