Yeah, we're better off playing him, since we can possibly get the best of both worlds, but oh well I guess, that's obviously not an option.

BTW, Suns are losing right now, meaning we would have been tied for 3rd place..

I still doubt Philly would even give us Iggy, if we took Dalembert. Only if we took on Brand, and that's an obvious "no," on our part. It seems like those Washington rumors are the most legit, involving Butler. But yeah, I have no clue either, knowing Morey, it'd probably be something no one even expected.

Agreed. People need to lay off the Iggy + Dalembert pipe dream.

Either play Tracy or Trade him ASAP, because these are the times we need someone that can create and execute to find a player in the corner or a player that can aggressively do something....that was just absolutely horrible.

don't think we will get any valuable player in return from trade

:lol: Posey said he knew what Landry was going to do.

Posey said he'd recognized the play Houston was running and moved into Landry's path.

"He didn't even slow down and he just ran me over and I was able to get the call," Posey said. "It was just one of those heady plays, just saving it for a stretch like that."

And Landry admits to "trying" to flop on Posey. :lol: LOL@ him actually admitting what he tried to do and it backfired.

“I knew (Posey) was going to be there,” Landry said. “I tried to flop a little bit and get the call to go my way. They were at home. I guess it didn’t go our way.”

And I'm also laughing at Adelman how he's complaining about offensive fouls when Trevor Ariza traveled around the world a few times in this game. He says he wants to know what an offensive foul is. Well I'd like to know what a travel is. I must say though, the refs sucked in this game. On both sides of the ball.

ahh, landry aint our closer. he's been good in the 4th quarter but doesnt change the fact that houston struggles to close games. tmac needs to be traded asap, this team is screaming for an all star (andre iguodala)
