It's out the 22nd in the states.. 21st everywhere else.. They're streaming the entire album on their website right now. Check it out.

Would rather wait until the release, but thanks for the heads up.

I know that there is no chance of this happening and a lot of cap problems with this too- but imagine a scenario where the Heat get knocked off in the first round the next two years and Lebron starts to realize that he and Wade are the same player and arent going to win in the playoffs, gets frustrated and wants to be traded. His buddy Jay-Z is in his ear about how he would run Brooklyn and the Nets trade Lopez and other pieces for Lebron and then sign Howard in that same off-season. Would basically have the perfect team of williams, Morrow, James, Hump (probably) and Howard. This actually wouldnt be terrible for Miami having a legit center to go with D-Wade and Bosh. I know there is no chance- but just saying...

I'm so glad we got Petro/Farmar/Outlaw instead, at least they're healthy.

I tell myself the same thing every time Dwyane Wade gets injured.

I'm so effing glad we weren't able to complete a trade for Anthony.

He's a good player but in the worst possible situation. To get the best out of Melo he has always needed to be pushed not coddled.

Leave it to the Bricks for not figuring that out though :lol:

At least the Knicks and Celtics are losing in seasons that actually mean something to them.

imagine a scenario where there was no cap, and Prok doubled what anyone offered for DWill and Howard.

In all seriousness, Hawks need to rebuild. They aren't going anywhere with that group...trade us Horford.

I think Josh Smith will be a much more realistic target then one would think.

That said, not a huge fan, but I'm sure he would look good next to Lopez and Deron.

I'd soil my pants if they got him.

As bad as we are... At least we're not Minnesota bad. Not even Johan Petro would have made the kind of stupid mistakes the Wolves did down the stretch of their last game...

I think if we got josh smith and put him at the 4 it would be great for the nets, itd allow them to stretch the floor and lopez to iso on the post

With that being said if we can trade for josh smith, sign wilson chandler and draft marshon brooks or david lighty, id be a happy man

Dwill
Morrow/Draft
Chandler/D. James
Smith/Outlaw
Lopez

Why not? He's a great athlete and could play small forward as well.

I've watched so many Hawk games this season.

The guy does NOT take it to the basket whatsoever anymore.

He has a low bball iq and he settles for long range 2's all game which he can't make.

He's regressed. A lot. Ask Hawk fans if you want to know what he's like

Post #278 » by **NyCeEvO** » Tue Mar 29, 2011 2:33 am

Wow, the Knicks can only win a game by cheating! Complete crap!

Fair enough.

Who do you think they should go after this summer at power forward?
