Well then if you did that the Pistons would be a lottery team for years. Boozer would get [expletive] upon, he plays no defense and is undersized at the C. Wow at you thinking he is better at C then players like Amil Johnson or Antonio McDyess.

Wow. This franchise is stupid............

Ok. Think about this. Andrea can be definitely compared to superstar Dirk Nowitzki, right? Well if you agree then compare both of their careers as of Dirks to his 3rd NBA year as Andrea just completed his 3rd NBA year. Now tell me, why not sign this guy to 10 million a year when he is comparable at a young age to Dirk, he may in fact be just as good as him when he gets to play in the next couple of years if Bosh leaves Toronto. This guy is only 23! .. Dirk Nowitzki averaged 8 ppg, 3 rpg and played 20 mpg in his rookie season. Andrea Bargnani averaged 11 ppg, 4 rpg and played 25 mpg in his rookie season. Dirk started half the season also in his rookie year, Andrea started 2. So already you can see Andrea is a better player if you compare both of their first years in the NBA. In no way did he under preform, he was only adjusting to the NBA in incredibly small minutes provided which led to 11 ppg and 4 rpg for his team from him, i think that alone is impressive. In his 2nd season his points per game dropped as did his minutes but both didn't drop by much. Yes he did have a bad year but don't forget he was 21 or so, he is playing beside a star big man in Chris Bosh and was still adjusting a bit to a roster that was changed up often .. Now i'll compare Dirks 2nd season in the NBA to Andreas which doesn't do Andrea justice because Dirk indeed started all games for the Mavs in his 2nd season and played massive minutes; 35 mpg. Which in comparison to Andreas 59 starts and playing only 31 mpg. However Dirk averaged with the upper hand over Andrea; 17 ppg and 6.5 rpg. Andrea averaged 15.5 ppg, 5 rpg and 1.2 bpg. Tell me now is it worth signing him? I infact think it is.. you trade him and you will see in the next 2 years that he will blossom into a Dirk like player, mark my words on that.

http://i.cdn.turner.com/nba/nba/2009/news/features/07/07/summer.league.day.2/anderson608.jpg Personally, i think he was a loss to us, i would have much rather seen Yi depart. Anderson is proving to be a good player, this isn't my judgment of him because of two outstanding summer league games, if you watch him end of last season where he had some starts etc. he showed that he has potential to be a big man scorer, he rebounds well too. His defense might be lacking however, this isn't a concern when you have a player like Dwight Howard in the post. I think this might come back and bite us hard if Courtney Lee doesn't perform next season up to expectations and Anderson does..

lol Durant wouldn't work. Aldridge and Nash would be good for the Heat however + if you sign Camby that is. Nash Wade Beasley Aldridge Camby

Great performance today against OKC also .. 23 points, 60% shooting .

http://www.nba.com/media/magic/utanjnphi_boxscore_070709.pdf Guess it wasn't one game either, another impressive performance and evident that this guy is improving.

http://www.nba.com/media/magic/utanjnphi_boxscore_070709.pdf CDR putting up another impressive 27 point performance .. Speights fell off hard this game ..

lol i don't know about him making the ASG anytime during his career .. that's a stretch ..

God Jordan is a moron, unprofessional of him.

I ain't on his dick dumbass, I was saying that why would we even think about starting Lee at the SF? .. The guy is 6'5" .. he would get massacred .. T-Will is suitable but he needs to get a few NBA games under his belt before he can even be considered a starter.. CDR is the suitable player for us for the SF position, either him or Hayes will start but like i said if Hayes goes down then we will see CDR starting .. Hayes will most likely start SF this season for us ..

Yes i did, it was the Nets/76ers vs Pacers and CDR had 20 points.. he was impressive.. Well he is going to have opportunities to start this season regardless.. if you didn't know that which you obviously didn't then you shouldn't be coming to me with them smart [expletive] comments .. CDR is the only player other then Hayes or T-Will that is suitable to play the SF position for us.. If Hayes goes down then CDR will start guaranteed.. T-Will is a little undersized so he would only play SF when the other team we play changes up rotations and has a smaller SF for him to guard .. Speights? .. 26 or 28 shot attempts? .. CDR did more then him for the team ..

Really? lol I don't think he will reach a Ron Artest level ... there is a chance but that's a bit of a longhaul..

Who knows man, 20 ppg could be possible lol. I wouldn't be surprised because a lot of guys just have mad break out seasons .. his jump shot is on point though, he needs to improve small things because his offensive games is decent, also NJ runs a dribble drive offense.. Lee can slash well and has hops with that jump shot he can be open and Harris will find him you know .. He has the potential to be good ..

Oh right then, didn't see that dude bring up Courtney Lee. Well i think it's obvious Simmons won't be with us for long .. is he on a expiring contract?

http://i.cdn.turner.com/si/2009/writers/bryan_armen_graham/03/31/rookie.rankings/Magic.jpg I don't know about 'dominant' but i think he will show the Nets fans this upcoming season what he is made of, he seems to be a very focused player which i like, he researches his opponents which is always a plus for a player to have that attitude towards the game. Thoughts?

Well Courtney Lee was never brought up in this discussion .. it was about CDR and T-Will regarding how CDR has improved and that he should start if he continues to improve..

Westbrook beasted in the first game ..

Honestly what are you trying to point out here? It's obvious Wade won't demand a trade, your talking about one of the most professional guys compared to one who wasn't professional at all; Kobe (now he has changed obviously) .. Wade won't demand a trade but just simply won't resign if things don't happen fast in Miami. Beasley is the key factor though, if he can improve to a borderline all-star player then by the time 2010 comes along and Miami have a chance at signing someone like Chris Bosh or Carmelo Anthony then Wade will know it is best to stay in Miami. Not to mention the Heat have great young prospects in Chalmers and Cook.

Courtney Lee starting the SF wouldn't work though.. it's a general throw up between Hayes, T-Will or CDR and CDR would be most ideal.. Lee is pretty much out of the question because he would be incredibly undersized playing SF. Because you obviously didn't watch the Summer League now did you?.. Don't lie either because if you did you would have seen what CDR did and he had a great performance .. too bad that Speights is playing and ball hogging .. lmao 26 shots by Speights when CDR was shooting better ..

Have to agree with him there, or possibly starting Charlie at the C would work as he is a legit 6'11"ner.. I think however this trade works out great for both parties.. Jazz would have a great player to work with Deron on screens etc. Deron Hamilton Kirilenko Millsap Okur -- Stuckey Gordon Prince Boozer Villinuava

^ lol scared of the C's

You haven't watched CDR to make a valid statement about who starts .. CDR is gonna be a solid defender in this league, watch him in the Summer League.. he is going to show what he's got to some doubters ..

It's obvious Ratner won't sell. The Brooklyn project is on it's way so besides other financial troubles which the Nets are prepared for he won't need to sell unless decides for a personal reason to sell.. -- Also if we sign Bosh in 2010 i am one happy dude .. Harris Lee T-Will/CDR Bosh Lopez That is a contender regardless of not having LeBron or Wade.

Nice
