This team is bipolar.

You can't trade Gortat to the Mavs for a full year since he signed their offer sheet.

Double pits to chesty

22. Brandon Bass is, in fact, alive. Saw the camera pan over him on the bench for 2 seconds.

60% of the time we win every time

21. Vince Carter and Jameer Nelson form the worst defensive backcourt in the history of organized basketball

Yeah, I didn't plan on posting much

They have, seriously, the best future in the league with LAL being next in line...Maybe OKC after them... If he does leave during FA though, I expect him to go to a winning team. Although I still think Charlotte and Philly would be good situations for him. I'd put Portland up there too, even though Oden's status is up in the air.

So, I could easily see JJ getting a $20 mil deal. We all know there are lots (I mean LOTS) of worse deals out there today. Yeah, the teams with leftover cap space that miss out will just spend it elsewhere. Look at Portland this year, could have saved the 7 mil but signed Andre Miller for the hell of it.

He is a power Pietrus.

Redick rumors... quote: Ludwig Hasbauer in Germany: seems to me the magic get it done now, do you expect any trades for them? Alex Kennedy: As I said before, if they do make a deal it would likely involve one of their role players. Teams are calling about J.J. Redick but he has been playing so well lately. He has really made Vince Carter's struggles easier for the Magic because he can come in a contribute off of the bench. His play has attract suitors but Orlando may not want to move him since he's done so well as an insurance policy to Carter. I've heard that Chicago is interested in Redick and could offer John Salmons and his expiring contract for Redick and a filler (probably Bass or Johnson). If Orlando makes a move, it's going to be something smaller like this that doesn't change the face of the team but could still make an impact. Salmons for Redick AND a filler? Shouldn't that read: Salmons and a filler for Redick? Salary wise, we would have to send somebody else. Would need a draft pick back to even consider it, IMO.

Everyone...except for the one who must not be named,Pietrus...and well, Bass has yet to be 'on track' in my book. Peaches was good against Detroit. Hope the ankle isn't too bad.

He is such a mismatch when he wants to be. Good to see.

Magic - Kings trade I dunno. Would have to find a backup C somewhere and the defense would take a hit. Leaves the Kings with a lineup of: C: Gortat / Hawes PF: Thompson / Bass SF: Pietrus / Cassipi / Greene SG: Evans / Garcia PG: Udrih / Rodriguez Orlando: C: Howard / Brockman - Would need someone else PF: Lewis / Anderson / Nocioni SF: Carter / Barnes / Nocioni SG: Martin / Redick PG: Nelson / JWill Put Carter out to pasture: Howard/Lewis/Barnes/Martin/Nelson Center/Anderson/Nocioni/Redick/Williams

They got smoked by Luke Ridnour. It's not just Deron Williams.

AT THE DISCO!

LOL. Iverson.

But **** did he play good for 47 minutes You can tell he was missing the second one. They should have had a Southwest Airlines logo underneath his face in between the shots.

Did you see Williams' face? He looked terrified.

It's so decadent.

The team is so deep that nobody has to force anything. Take what comes to you, if your shot is off you have 8-9 guys to pick up the slack. The only thing they have to consistently bring is effort.
