Balta1701 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 QUOTE (DBAHO @ Feb 5, 2010 -> 09:18 AM) I think they'll try very hard to dump either Hamilton or Prince at the deadline / off-seaso without much success also. If Dumars hadn't lost his mind, he'd have been trying to do that last offseason instead of blowing his cap space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Trade offer, would it be fair? Heat trade: Michael Beasley Dorell Wright Udonis Haslem Quentin Richardson 1st round pick Wizards trade: Caron Butler Antawn Jamison Wizards get a ton of cap space open next year and a young guy in Beasley to build around. Heat get two good veterans to pair with Wade. Heat would still have enough cap space to go after Chris Bosh next year with Jermaine O'Neal's salary leaving the books. PG: Chalmers, Alston SG: Wade, Cook SF: Butler, Jones PF: Jamison, 1st round pick(Brackins?) C: Bosh, Anthony Think that might win some games :-).

DBAHO Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I'd honestly just hang onto Beasley instead of bringing in Butler and Jamison. If you could get Jamison by dealing those other guys though (although I've always liked Haslem as a glue guy), that's something I think the Heat should definitely look at.

Felix Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Wolves beat the Mavericks in Dallas tonight, 117-108. Johnny Flynn had a pretty solid game, as did the rest of our starters and Kevin Love. I think this was the first time the Wolves have won in Dallas in five years (or something ridiculous), so that's pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Derrick Rose made me jump like a little kid with that massive one handed dunk against the Hawks... too bad that was the only play and thing the Bulls did right the entire game. Man if anyone can make a freaking shot, Rose's assist numbers would be as high as Rondos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 A PG.. with a 40 inch vertical... I gotta say I love how the ESPN analyst were pretty much ripping VDN for using a half court offense when you got a PG who is pretty much unguardable and your using him in a pick-n-roll (instead of isolation), pretty much double-teaming him and giving up the ball to the horrid shooters on our team.

Quin Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 (edited) Other thoughts from the loss: Man, I miss Joakim. Also, the Bulls signed Chris Richard for 10 days as a stop gap. Since he's in town, anyone know if we could afford another minimum salary? Byars would be nice for 3 point shooting. Edit: Wow, just checked BG's 3pt%. Salmons is worlds better than him this year.

They'll sign him once they are able to trade Hinrich, Salmons or both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Stoudemire says he's leaning towards NOT opting out of his contract. If the Bulls were to deal for him expecting to be able to maintain cap space when he opts out, and thus be able to offer 2 large deals by using Amare's bird rights, that would kill any chance of that happening.

When 3 different coaches get sick of you, something is up. I hear what you're saying. Problem is...in the NBA, if you want to be an effective coach, you can't just get sick of those type of players, you have to develop them. Want a great example? Look how Phil Jackson has taken Kobe Bryant from being a total crybaby in 2003-2004 to being an iceman today. Look how many talented guys have languished with crappy coaching and then snapped out of it when they got out of there. Zach Randolph, Jamal Crawford come to mind as examples just from this year. By the time the 3rd straight coach was responding to every situation, whether I was playing well or not, by benching me, I'd be pretty sick of it too.

I guess its possible to see the argument from both sides. Also, that Richard dunk was exciting. I like the guy, with his Noah style hair and the fact that he was Noah's backup before, and if I remember right from the postseason, he hustles a lot. Edit: Noah's suit does not disappoint.

If I got no other (blockbuster) offers at the deadline, probably, but I'd rather Harrington (as was speculated earlier this year) as they'd need a forward and Duhon would be purely a bench player in what would be a recreation of our Guard Logjam from a few years ago that sent Duhon out.

Yeah, and not because of the players involved...because if we rescind the QO for TT we can't use him in a sign-and-trade to help match anything, but we'd be able to do that with Duhon under the Veteran's exemption/Bird Rights, if I know the rules right.
