Nyce_1 311 Report post Posted December 7, 2008 I think there was a rumor he wanted to sign with us this past summer but we had no money to offer him. Also, don't think Otis was interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eyriq 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2008 As good a fit as Lewis is for us at the 4, Josh Smith is far and away the Perfect fit. My god, that would be completely nasty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While this contract was enormous and he may never live up to the money we paid him, I am sure that in two years when Lebron leaves Cleveland, Cavs fans will be so unbelievabally jealous that we went out and got the best available free agent at any cost to keep our dominant player happy But I do agree that if we had Josh Smith on this team, we'd be unstoppable. We'd be the best team in the league with a freakish frontcourt like that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
no_ma'am 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2008 if we had smith instead of shard we would be better on D and worse on O. He can't spread the floor for dwight the same way shard can. His jumpshot is extremely streaky. He also develops a case of the stupids from time to time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRevTy 6 Report post Posted December 7, 2008 Magical on EBS said Otis did his due diligence this summer and really tried for a sign and trade, but Atlanta wasn't letting Smith go to a division rival, no way no how. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berto 338 Report post Posted December 7, 2008 Josh Smith would be perfect for this team. I'd do anything to sign and trade Hedo next year for Josh. It would never happen, but it would be amazing. You could just hand us the title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My god, that would be completely nasty. I strongly disagree! Rashard is the most proficient power forward in the league according to the plus minus ratio. With Tony Battie learning the Run and Gundy so quick we will get past the first round this year cuz of Batman! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
