A 4th quarter collapse that only spared the Raps because the Pacers played their worst quarter as well. It is a win under circumstances when they could have mailed it on on the heels of the...
I don't see the point in speculating on trades before the trade lottery. I'd be a little hesitant about Deng because of his involvement in the Olympics and the impending wrist surgery. 2012-13 has...
Agreed. Those types of proposals show the type of intelligence that I'd normally associate with sports radio in Philadelphia or Chicago. If there are moves to be made it would be among the bigs...
I'd keep the pick. I think it would be hard to trade it for two mid round picks, at least in this year's draft, and I'd prefer to keep building from within. With the log jam imminent among the bigs...
Another vote for keeping Jose. He has improved his defense and as the trade rumours percolate, it is evident that he is easy to covet and hard to replace.
Given the depth of the draft, I'd be cool with creeping into the playoffs and would not regard it as something that upsets "the plan" whatever that may be. A mid first-round pick will still bring...
Thanks but no thanks.
Neither of these guys have the pedigree that Colangelo said he was looking for. Frank is a little closer on that measure but only on the strength of time of service. I suspect cost is a bigger...
Way to flaunt the rookie status.
I agree that BC has to stay. His patience with this protracted process at MLSE alone is reason for him to rise in the estimation of Raps fans, but he has set the table for steady progress in the...
I don't know if his rebounding would improve anymore if he were at the "4." The combo of him and Reggie Evans showed promise but at the end of the day, he has to do his bit on defense and the glass.
Guys, Spinal Tap is big in Japan too. If he's worth a shot give him a long look in Summer League or the D. I concur with Heinz 57, however.
Who's team was the Detroit Pistons in the middle of the last decade or the current Celtics? There doesn't always have to be an alpha male in the locker room for a team to be good. In answer to the...
Depending on the Raps placement in the draft they could conceivably add a point guard that would be a strong contender for a lot of playing time, if not starting. The challenge with moving Calderon...
No point musing about this until Colangelo's status is settled. Is someone looking for a gig writing for Bleacher Report?
You have to decide how may to keep before addressing this in any detail. My thoughts on order of value:
Ed Davis - young, lots of upside and he play defense (you know, the thing in your zone). He...
I like what I've seen of him on the floor. He moves well and is comfortable and assertive on the floor. I'd like to see a bit more of a trad big man role and a bit more D from him, though. Let's...
The Celtics biological clock is ticking loud but they will find away to reboot quicker than the others.
NYK has names but no depth and they'll likely float around 48-52 wins a season.
Philadelphia...
Chill people. There's no point making a trade for trade's sake. If it doesn't work it is like taking your ugly sister to the prom because you don't wanna go stag.
Colourful quote but nothing to stake a lot on regarding the season or Jay's status. The guys were out of it coming off the break and basically the yawning intensity didn't make much of a game.
Does that $66.8 Million include the TPE? I reviewed the contracts and it just adds up to $54-55M. Is there someone they're paying to be elsewhere, or are they getting docked for the Peja buyout?
I think that is a bit of an impulse move based on a small sample. Amir's history is what it is but he is showing big improvement in his game. I'd say a few of the calls against Amir were of the...
I'm pretty high on Ed. It is just a matter of time for him play with that intensity on a consistent basis. With the setbacks at the start of the season costing hm training camp, it would have been...
Aside from the typical musings about weather it works or not, Mr. Sloan deserves the time to himself more than anything else. The more significant thing to ponder is how poorly the Jazz have treated...
