Is the NBA (Please Use More Appropriate Word)? 

Post#1 » by Islanders82 » Wed Feb 13, 2008 9:19 pm

It's becoming laughable with all these fixed moves. Shaq to the Suns to refuel the Kobe/Shaq-LA/Phoenix rivalry is the funniest one i've seen in a while.

It's like everything is ran by one big committee :noway:

Domino effect. Celtics got a big three, now every other team wants a big three to compete for the championship.

"Fixed moves"? You make it sound like the NBA is the one pulling the trigger on these trades.

It's weird. Wherever the fans want to see players, it seems that's where the player ends up. :nonono:

Why the heck would these Gm's keep trading their stars to good teams? Bury the guy, send them to Memphis or Seattle or Charlotte or something. Aren't you trying to compete for a ring too? I mean come on.

So wait... the Heat won the Marion trade yet did it to help out the Suns? Please explain. Also, didn't as many fans want to see Gasol in Chicago as LA?

Please stop with these dumbass conspiracey theory.

There is not theory to this, no fixed trades, it is a effect after 1 big trade now everybody wants to compete so they trade to get better. Ever thought of that uah.

BTW what type of retarted topic this is.
