Thats ok, otis wasn't interested in a PG who runs a great offense, has playoff experience, and isn't a shot first guy. Instead, he just him to into the division. what an ass smith is.

Stfu. Aside from the playoff experience, Bibby isn't any of those things anymore.

The Kings have reached an agreement in principle to send veteran guard Mike Bibby to the Atlanta Hawks for guards Anthony Johnson and Tyronn Lue and forwards Lorenzen Wright and Sheldon Williams, sources told The Bee on Saturday



they got em for nothing...

anymore? bibby is 29. if orlando throws in expirings and redick, orlando's deal would have be been. sheldon williams is garbage. otis is an idiot

im glad for the hawks, they arent afraid to make themselves better like the rest of the league.. now orlando..... is another story.

It doesn't matter. Ask Kings fans, Bibby sucks now. This move wouldn't help at all. Mark my words, the Hawks will still be a bad team.

I'm happy Otis is focusing on getting a big to help us improve. What would getting Bibby do? Nothing. He would just be another point guard Magic fans would complain about.

bibby is coming off an injury, give him a break. his track record deserves it.

the silver lining is that anthony johnson is gone, so now he cant light up nelson again.

Bad news for us but I am not sure about him being a good fit here. Our division is going to be scary for the upcoming years...

Hawks: Bibby, JJ, J-Smith, Horford, Williams
Bobcats: Richardson, Wallace, Felton, Okafor (May if healthy)
Heat: Wade, Marion, Rose/Beasly?
Wizards: Unsure what they will look like, but if Gilbert goes they have plenty of cap, losing Jamison as well.

We are going to have to make moves just to stay competitive in our own division.

I would have criticized Otis if he had traded for Bibby. Guys, I know he's young, but he's just not very good these days.

Dumbest thing a GM can do is let his expiring contracts expire when you could use them to get an allstar.

I think trashing Otis is pointless. However...I also think that when a trade like this happens, or the one like Pau to Memphis...you have to think just how hard your team's GM is working to improve through trades.

Pau goes to LA for basically nothing & now Bibby to Atlanta for basically nothing. In both cases, we could have offered more and still would not have been offering much. So of course people are going to come out and wonder why we are not making deals. That being said, the ones that are bashing Otis, it is too early. You should be waiting until after it is all over (the deadline passes) until you make your opinion. If that time comes and goes and we still have not made a move to improve the team, then bash away.

Anything that takes the ball out of Joe Johnson's hands can only help the Magic. He kills us.
