I'm enjoying the last days of bosh in Toronto, big win against Dallas...bosh is the best raptor ever its said that this will be his last year in T.O.

Agreed, he's been nothing but class the whole time too, unlike many other players in Toronto who bolted out of the city.

lebron vs kobe was fun to watch yesterday.

 

[thedon]

kobe youngest to 25,000 points, think he can top kareem?

 

[thedon]

Big win for the raps over the lakers!

 

[Ironslave]

Easily, easily the worst dunk contest ever... I mean, Kobe throwing a simple alley-oop is supposed to be a dunk contest dunk? A jump from below the circle in the paint a long distance jump? That was awful.

The Cavs are all over the place in trade rumors. They are very close to trading JJ Hickson and Big Z for Amare Stoudemire. There's also possibilities of them picking up Antawn Jamison, Troy Murphy, or Corey Maggette.

They admit they are picking up all this talent to keep Lebron in Cleveland.

Imagine this...

PG - Mo Williams
SG - Corey Maggette
SF - Lebron James
PF - Amare Stoudemire
C - Shaquille O'neal

New NBA Trade


Wizards get
1.) Josh Howard
2.) Drew Gooden
3.) Quinton Ross
4.) James Singleton

Mavericks get
1.) Caron Butler
2.) Brandon Haywood
3.) Deshawn Stevenson


Good trade for the Mavs IMO.

The Nets can offer better if they win the lottery. :music:

 

[Oloz]

That all-star game was fucking pathetic. What a joke, throwing the ball up against the back board and no one played any defense. The NBA is pathetic now.

doubt it if these trades go through

Why do black people love basketball?

Because it involves running, shooting, and stealing.

 

[Ironslave]

No way,

Lopez
Bosh
Lebron
Harris
Wall

would put the nasty in dynasty!

 

[thedon]

76ers showing interest in amare, they would have to give up igudala and dalembert, but the suns would have to package barbosa with amare

 

[Justwonderin]

I think though a team of Wall, Harris, Lebron, Li, and Lopez would be the immediate favorite to win the league, certainly much more than Lebron, Mo Williams, Delante West and whatever else they use to fill out the roster.

The Heat could be good too though, and I agree they do have a shot at Bosh.

yeah im sure lebron wants to go to THE worst team in the league. lebron aint goin no where

unless you REALLY follow you can't fully appreciate the impact this trade has. and possibly the trully biggest impact this has- Brandon Haywood. The mavs now have something they have never had and thats a true good center. In the past decade it was sean bradly and eric dampier. suck city. now they have a big man. being one of the top tier teams over the past decade this will greatly improve them. dont think it will pay off this far into the season, but hopefully next year if kidd and nowitski can psyche themselves up for this I could see them being a contender for real. yes they would contend w/ LA, Denver, Orlando, and who ever lebron ends up w/

LeBron is not going to a team that is 5-48, nor is Bosh. There is nothing else needed to understand this besides common sense.

 

[Flex]

Cavs got Antawn Jamison.

Amare > Antawn.

 

[Flex]

New lineup?

PG - Mo Williams
SG - Anthony Parker
SF - Lebron James
PF - Antawn Jamison
C - Shaquille O'neal

 

[Rageking]

i guess the cavs didnt want to get rid of hickson.
shouldve did all they could to get amare imo
