Camby got traded for the right to trade 2nd round spots with Clips.
Nothing yet
Childress in Greece
Dirk moved homes in dallas but not much else

[studcrackers]

howard bass and terry got traded, everything got real heated around here resulting in several bans and every thread about it has been deleted. in fact i may get banned for even mentioning it

And the Dark Knight came out.

In a shocking move, Atlanta traded Joe Johnson and Josh Smith for Eddie Jones

Next nba season got cancelled due to a majority of all stars moving to play in the growing middle eastern league

And the Dark Knight came out.

Mark Cuban bought the Cubs,signed Biedrins,Josh Smith and JR Smith as outfielders,then assigned them to the Mavs for conditioning.

Or the Knicks gave cash to trade Balkman for Taurean Green, Bobby Jones and a future 2nd.

Which the Knicks will waive Green and Jones and squander the 2nd rounder for a half eaten bag o' beans...

Italy 23,
To be honest I hit the Dallas board by mistake last night. decided to check a few posts and saw yours. The responses were pretty funny so I tried to add one. This morning I wanted to see what others had written,started to do a top ten,that became a dozen. After posting,went to work,and thought of a few others,before customers started in I edited in a hurry and tried to think of what each team had done-or not done-so far. Roughly 90 odd minutes.
Probably the most unbelieveable thing that really happened while you were away is some die-hard Laker fans actually believe Kobe will opt out and take less money to help out the team finances.

[italy_23]

lol, major props to you tisbee!

[your_dallas_mavericks]

tisbee, you rock! You are welcome on this board anytime! Love that humor!
