sleeper team..


Iggy's playmaking will help Lawson on the perimeter.


Denver just helped the lakers fix the one disadvantage the lakers had against Denver. Slow bigs.

Also made them worse at their biggest weakness: outside shooting
Relying on Gallo as your only perimeter threat is a recipe for disaster.

I'm much more concerned about the new look Sixers.

C: Bynum / Hawes / K. Brown
PF: Allen / Moultrie
SF: Turner / T. Young
SG: N. Young / Wright
PG: Jrue Holiday / Ivey

That's a dangerous team in both transition and the half court.

Hold your horses there champ. I'm on the phone with Europe (yes, all of Europe) negotiating buyout deals for Macije Lampe and Milos Vujanic. The Knicks are back.

[quote="blumatic"]

I hate Dolan because Dolan is awful in all facets. It has nothing to do with Jeremy Lin.

Who would have Lin's 3rd year hurt the most? The Knicks? They're capped out anyway. The only person it was hurting was James Dolan's pocket. There was no reason he should not have been on this team other than sheer stupidity or pettiness. Either way, that argument is long gone.

The argument here is that the Knicks once had the cache of the Lakers (ofcourse, not even close to them but more respectable than what they have now) before Dolan came around and buried it all. They were able to lure great coaches and players to their team and built championship ballclubs. Now? After 10 years of incompetence, no player is putting their career and chances of a title in the hands of James Dolan. Jerry Buss is a proven winner. Dolan is not. If the Knicks had Dr. Buss we would be the ones making these moves. Alas, here we are with our Felton's and Kidd's.

I am in shock that Orl gave up Dwight and got trash in return.

Harrington, Afflalo, 2 scrubs and 3 PROTECTED picks = Dwight?


They had way better deals. Feel bad for Orl fans and that GM should be fired on the spot.

Harrington, ok, he sucks. Afflalo is solid (bad -> meh contract). Harkless/Vucevic are not scrubs. But yeah...the 3 protected picks has me confused.

Yes, it's called Plan C after failing to get Dwight or Bynum and will now be an all out pursuit of Al Jefferson.

Similarly, I expect trade rumors regarding the Rockets trying to peel Rondo away from the Celtics. After all, it wouldn't be an NBA season without the Celtics needing to blow it all up according to everyone.
