I can't see the Bulls trading Deng to get younger. They're going to be trying to win it all next year, and trying to go through Miami. Deng is just another solid option to throw at Lebron. And if...

Added to the strangeness is the fact that he made BC rep the Raptors at the lottery. I wonder if he had someone cut off his balls as well.

Except that in this case, the GM is sticking around as the president. Which means that he's going to be overseeing (kind of? or whatever the hell it is he'll be doing) his own team getting...

Another interesting point, which I hadn't really considered: by replacing Colangelo, management is essentially saying that they do not believe in the team that he's built, and that the incumbent...

Which makes me hope that this will be the final. It'd be a great contrast of old vs new school. I was at the Heat game in Toronto in March, and I remember being amazed at how thin Miami's front line...

They also have a big advantage at the point with Conley over Cole/Chalmers, which combines nicely with their inside advantage. It would be interesting to see how Miami would handle their pick and...

But the idea is that Dwight's presence is scaring players off of those interior shots, which is why a smaller percentage of the shots he faces are coming from there. We know that this is not the case...

He should have just got those chunky hipster goggles that Stoudemire has, those are dope.

Ahh I'm not so sure. I mean, he'd already made like 12 mil or whatever off of his rookie contract. Anything after that won't make any real difference to his day to day life. If anything, it'll just...

I think Thibs is being a little humble in that interview. I think that the tone he sets with his personality and his (legendary) work ethic goes a long way towards getting his players to fall in...

The fact that Demar has essentially the same defensive rating as Tony Allen is enough to tell me that this stat is completely meaningless.

After reading this, I'm genuinely wondering if he has a cognitive disability.

When you talk about his time in Houston, the issue isn't lack of success, it's how he behaved. Specifically, when he came out and said (and I'm paraphrasing) "Either McChale goes or I go"...

Which is why is said "basically". The caveat being, if you're a shooting guard who is also a first ballot hall of famer, then no, 3pt shooting is not essential.

Because it's basically essential for his position.

Perfect timing!

The same reason that many of the best foreign players play high school ball in the US: better competition and more exposure, which makes it more likely that they'll play at a major US university,...

But this potential talent has already held their own against the top players in the world of their own age, whether it be in international play or in college/high school, and success at those levels...

Just to keep things off topic :)...

I just disagree that Spain never had a chance. Pau Gasol was playing incredibly, and the thing about basketball seems to be, if you have the best player on the...

I gotta say I disagree with you on this one. Did you see the gold medal game last summer? It was damn close, and Marc Gasol had to miss a bunch of time because of foul trouble. AND they were minus...

I'm down.

You could throw Ettore Messina onto that list for shits and giggles.

If you're going to be honest, you'll admit that Demar himself sure hasn't done much to un-cripple this team over the past four years.

Exactly my point; these arguments will be happening! Up till now, all we could do was hope that the NBA guys would play.

When you think about his potential, the difference between his ceiling/basement as a player can seem to be vast. All-Star? Maaaaaybe. Absolute best-case scenario. But on the flip-side, he's already...

I'm just not sure. It's really hard to say what Demar's worth at this moment. Yes, he's a near 20ppg scorer. But if I'm Minnesota, I look at this trade and say, do I really want to be paying a...
