I don't know if the NBA has an agreement set up yet to trade with teams in Turkey.

Note to EG, this is the Timberwolves and they are missing Al Jefferson. Don't not make a trade because they all of a sudden look good tonight.

On a side note, $20 bucks says Ivan Carter reads this board on a daily basis. Did you read his blog today? It was complete rebuttle to the thread created about Arenas practicing yesterday.

all of u doubting dixon and sayin he should play overseas. hes better han every starter we have as a guard and u dont even know it. heres a look at the one season where he got a good amount of playing time wich was bout 2 years ago. hes a fromer acc player of the year, all acc first team 3 straigh tyears. maryland leader in 3 pointers, poiints n steals.. first team all america and oh yea that national championship n wich he had the highest point total in the tourbament in 14 years.

Blatche looks real sharp tonight. He's moving around a lot on D and really making an effort to control the paint. It's not a coincidence that the Wizards are +14 with him on the court.

Oh DeShawn, you're so clever with your selection of bow-ties! Dude's an embarrassment.

Apparently not. It doesn't say much that we're going to limp to a victory over the Jefferson-less Timberwolves.

After the trade deadline, I want Jamison's and Butler's minutes cut to about 34 a game, Songaila around 20, and James not to see the light of day. The odds of that happening I realize are slim and none, and slim just left town.

So, Butler had to head to the back after that nasty fall? Man, oh man that's rotten.
Always remember, my friend: the world will change again. And you may have to come back through everywhere you've been.
