Rowand44 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 08:27 PM) My brother is saddening to me. He, like me, loves Kirk. He ONLY wanted D-Wade as a FA. He really DOES NOT want LBJ, Bosh, or JJ. Ha, really? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 09:11 PM) Ok. A guy who shoots 41% on the floor on mostly open jump shots is not a good shooter and while Hinrich tries hard and is a good defender he is far from a lock down defender and that is what it takes for me to consider someone great on that end of the floor.

Quin Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 09:29 PM) Ha, really? Yes. He hates LeBron and thinks he's a choker who can't do anything and thinks Bosh is only good on bad teams. He thinks only Wade would lead them to the promised land, even after Wade slammed the Bulls.

I've probably said it to him...he also wanted to keep JD over Rios (trade for a rock!) and sign Pods to the $7M deal. It's sad, he used to be sport smart, but as he used to tell me when I was little "Don't fall in love with players." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps "streaky" is a better adjective, but I still think he's a good shooter. And name 5 "lock-down" defenders in the NBA now-a-days. It doesn't exist.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 What the f*** is this s***? Magic May Be Near Deal For Chris Paul Orlando Would Send Vince Carter, Jameer Nelson To New Orleans POSTED: Thursday, June 24, 2010 UPDATED: 9:19 pm EDT June 24, 2010 New Magic Logo ORLANDO, Fla. -- It is draft night in the NBA, and it seems the Orlando Magic are in the mood to make a deal. Rumors of New Orleans point guard Chris Paul coming to Orlando for Vince Carter and Jameer Nelson seem to be more real than the Magic are saying. http://www.clickorlando.com/magic/24029691/detail.html This is some serious bad news for the eastern conference.

But I'm certainly not counting chickens yet. Hopefully that report is bulls***. That's a scary f***ing thought. The Hornets could certainly do better than a washed up Vince and good but hardly great PG for arguably the best all-around PG in the game when healthy.

Just the thought of Howard/Paul on the same team made me s*** myself. It doesn't make basketball sense; it makes $$$ sense. Chris Paul costs $15M/year for the next 3 and New Orleans can't sustain a franchise even with him. The Hornets' owner is cheap enough to drop his franchise player to save some bucks.

SoxAce Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 The Hinrich trade off-setted the Byfuglien loss from my end tremendously (though the same friend who loved Byfuglien yesterday liked Hinrich alot too so he's having a bad week) One of the top 10 most happiest days of my life as far as sports in Chicago.

If LeBron signs, that is top 3 for me behind only the Bulls and Sox championships.

A healthy Chris Paul and Howard? I could see Collison... but Paul?! Hornets would be one of the stupidest franchises to do this (way worse than the Gasol rape LA gave to Memphis) For the record, Chris Paul is the only PG I would trade Rose straight up for. People forget how incredible he was prior to the injury.
