There was a 'Let's fake a trade' thing on ESPN, and one of the trades went something like this.Miami Heat get: Kevin Garnett
T Wolves get: Chris Bosh, and somebody else I forget
Raptors get: a whole lot of people. I forget all of them but i remeber Udonis Haslem, James Posey, Jason Williams, and thats all I remeber, but I think there was 3 more players.I would like it if that happened. Flash, Shaq, and KG = WOW. Chrish Bosh would actually be somewhere where he'll be known more because he is really good. And the Raptors, well, I guess it's an OK trade for them.
This was just a "What if" thing though. There is no chance that this would happen.
Yeah everybody gets a good trade, aside from the Raptors. What reporters and anaylist's dont understand is that if they trade away Bosh, the fans will go nuts and the Raptors will probalby be out of Toronto in 5 years. They're hanging on a thread with Bosh, they need to sign him at all costs and not trade him away for anybody (aside from Lebron).
I would love to see that Heat team.
Now, for real life, I hope Darko develops to be a stud. I doubt it, but I want Dwight to have somebody next to him to help develop the Magic. As for Francis, they are talking about him to NY for Hardaway (for cap space) and maybe Crawford as well to fill the physical gap. I can't see Marbury and Francis co-existing. I hope that trade happens and it goes even further downhill for the Knicks. 🙂
And now for the first legal problem for the Blazers this year:
On the team's plane, the flight attendant found a handgun in Telfair's pillow. Authorities are believing his story that he grabbed his girlfriend's bag and discovered the gun on the plane so he tried to hide it in a pillow. I believe his story (why else would he put it in a pillow?) but it sounds all too familiar to Staudamire blaming his drugs on somebody else.

Im a Howard fan to but i havent seen any of Darko's skills to know how they are gonna work together. What position does he play? I cant imagine him playing Center or PF even though he has the height, he is just too skinny. If he has the skills he could be a SF (like Odom) but as i said im not sure of his skill set.
Francis and Marbury is a definite possibility, but like you i cant see how they will complement each other. Both are SG's in PG's bodies, Isiah might be trying to recreate the famous Piston backcourt of the 80's and 90's but someone needs to tell him that neither can play defense.
Speaking of defense or lack of, im really disappointed with the Lakers D of late. They hit a new low when they allowed the Hawks to clock up 114pts against them and lost the game. Kobe had his average pts and 9 dimes so it wasnt like we couldnt score, but our defense has been pathetic. No effort and bad fundamentals (reaching) are the main problem, hopefully Phil will correct this after the ASW.
lol @ Telfair, that reminds me of the time when James Worthy got caught with 2 hookers and his wife went on Oprah saying the weren't both for him.
vince... if that is you... then why did you leave toronto like that🙁 it coulda been a dynasty, you coulda took the trophy out of the usa... and you would have been why they'd won. but no, you wanted out. i dont hate you, i just wonder what if.....
and if thats mrs carter... shut up and stop biggin ur son up all the bloody time!!!

Thats a great team, add a few shooters (Korver) and a lock down perimeter defender (Iggy) and its championship parade.
Thought you'd like the fact i added Sixer players.
As a matter of fact, I had them too. I also had Jameer Nelson and Ben Gordon, thats all I remeber though.

Ford is eligible? He was drafted in 03. Weird, I guess last year didn't count for him.
They still are nothing compaired to a usual draft year.
2004:
Iggy
Gordon
Ford (really a 2003 draft)
Howard
Deng
Okafor (injured)
are the top 6 pretty much
2005:
Paul
Bogut
Frye
Granger
Villanueva
Nate Robinson
Salim Staudamire
Jasikevicius
Just for comparing sake 2003 (makes these 2 years look like shit):
LeBron
Wade
Carmelo
Bosh
Josh Howard
Hinrich
Ford
All i know is im stoked that BSPN will be showing the whole weekend. I got myself a blank tape to video the whole thing and im just about to have a 😮💨 and sit back and watch the Rookie vs Sophomores game. Im going with the Sophomores, 1 years more experience in the NBA may help if its a close game.
Enjoy everyone!
