Harden 18pts 22% 4asts and 5TOs. Beginning to look like the first couple games was a fluke.

He's definitely not a first option guy but I would love to have him here as our SG.

He'll be fine. the first few games were not necessarily flukes, but he could never maintain that sort of production. he was on one helluva streak

No doubt. He would be the perfect guy next to Knight.

Hard to believe Jerry Stackhouse is still playing in the NBA

Or that Sheed is back in the NBA. You have to figure a bunch of vets watched Juwan Howard do his thing last year and think "god, i could do that".

Looks like Charlotte just made a trade...Even though the two players that were traded are bums, I wish Dumars could make something happen...

Yes, let's trade one bum for another. Then we'll have really accomplished something.

Didnt we already do that during the offseason but we gave up an extra draft pick to get rid of our bum?

I feel bad for Bobcats fans. They think BG is going to maintain his decent production.

I hope he does. Finishing worse then the Cats will mean we are in good position for a top pick.

Anyone watch the griz game v NY??
they are looking really good now. even with gay struggling with his shot, he had some key defensive plays and hit some big shots at the end. I hope they can make some noise come playoff time.
Good to see sheed in action again too.

Yeah I watched the game...I guess all my Rudy Gay trade scenarios are out-the-window because the Griz are looking good this season...It looks like Randolph is fully healthy and he's really meshing well with Gay...Gasol is playing well too...

Sheed is still the same, even at the age of 38...

that's too bad jodi. You were hell bent on those Gay trades, but if the griz keep this kind of play up they'll keep that core together for a while. The gasol randolph combo is brutal to defend. and when gay is defending like he did tonight, they're so hard to play against.
Ellington was a great pick up too.

I wonder if we could trade some minor assets to the Magic for Harkless.

joseph mamah · Post #17 » by **joseph mamah** » Sat Nov 17, 2012 5:12 pm

^^nice sig :lol:

we dont have anything Orlando would want for Harkless. nothing we'd be willing to give up anyway.

Irvings starting to look a little injury prone.

This one is even better....

1. July 2008: Obtains Jermaine O'Neal for TJ Ford, Rasho and Hibbert. “Adding six-time all-star Jermaine O'Neal to this team puts us at another level with regard to talent, experience and competitiveness in the Eastern Conference,” said Bryan Colangelo, Raptors President and General Manager.

2. Feb 2009: trades O'Neal (the guy BC said only 6 months ago would put the Raptors at another level), Moon and a 1st round pick for Marion, Marcus Banks and cash. (Remember this 1st round pick :wink:

)

3. July 2009: Marion's contract expires and BC signs Turkoglu to big contract

4. July 2010: O'Neal's huge contract expired and Miami uses the cap room to take Bosh from Toronto and forces BC into a sign-and-trade and Riley, in an act of charity, gives BC his own 1st round pick back. //

this made me lol courtesy of the raptors :lol:
