This. Some good suggestions in this thread.. Monta Ellis and Beasley are the two I'd keep my eye on. Monta could probably win right now with...
+1 Easy-- it was irrelevant because it was 100% unrealistic. Your view of the trade is too narrow and simplistic -- ie, refusing to look at...
The Aaron Brooks trade. As Dragon Girl knows, I was not a big fan of the trade, but I said I would reserve judgment until I saw who the draft pick...
No, he didn't. Easy gave an irrelevant example that has nothing to do with the trade at hand. The fact you aren't counting WHO the Grizzlies...
Lot of hype about the anthem singer.. and I thought he sucked. I'll stick to basketball.
OK -- how about using what actually happened and not a ridiculous hypothetical? It's still a bad trade because most people didn't realize how...
You're assuming that we would have the supporting cast ready to win immediately if we traded for a franchise player using our current roster; I...

A new novel concept I like to call "watching both players." Rockets fans and their love for TS% -- it is adorable. Rudy Gay is a better...
:grin: I like to sell my idea to those who are slow to come around, sorry. The funny part about your comment is that superstars don't want to...
You just compared Kevin Martin to Dwayne Wade and Derrick Rose. Any point you were trying to make just went out the window, sorry. If Kevin Martin...
I think that's exactly what we've done -- putzing around the last two seasons as pretenders. The last two years were centered around the hope that...
He can't. I wish the OP would have made this a public poll so we could ridicule those that actually believe Scola is comparable to Zach. ;)
Either way, your point was right.
Two final points: 1) It doesn't take an evaluation of Martin's past injuries to expect a decline. Martin was brought in to play second fiddle...
