Ahh fair enough. Thanks anyway. :glasses:

Seriously, what's wrong with Earl Barron? He averaged a double-double in his stint with the Knicks last season. Yes, I know it was a small sample size and yes, it was the Knicks who at that time had no one else but David Lee who is a scorer in the post, but he should be on an NBA team if dudes like Shawne Williams and Maurice Ager can get another chance.

We would have been over the cap with Kirk though and probably wouldn't have been able to get all these role players in along with Boozer.

We can't get any of the guys you mentioned unfortunately, all for the common reason that their team needs them (yes, even Afflalo). I hope we can get Marcus Thornton since he is getting no love at NO, but no matter what, we really don't have any expendable pieces that other teams would be interested in. Also, we only got 1.4 mil left of cap space, so that's only enough for a vet minimum. Danthay Jones could be another option given how he is not even in the rotation for Indy, but he's only a better version of Keith Bogans. To be honest, I wished we re-signed Flip Murray because he can really score.

I like it quite a bit, actually. Any chance you can put CP3 in the center though? I'll still use this one if you can't, but it looks better IMO if he is at the center with that shaded bubble.

How does B-Diddy to Bobcats for Nazr Mohammad's expiring, DJ Augustin and Najera sound? Surprisingly enough, the ESPN trade machine predicted 8 less wins for the BOBCATS and 4 more wins for the Clippers if this deal is done.

Yeahh but truth is, if we want to get the 3rd/4th seed then Rose will have to score over or equal to 20 points so the PPG won't drop by much. 20-10 and a team with around 50 wins definitely deserves some consideration for MVP. Back to the topic, Rondo probably won't win MVP or be in the mix, but it's not his fault. He just got some darn good players around him.

Anyone else thinks that the Hornets are for real now?

I would have just taken Beverly if we are getting back Shaun Livingston or Sherron Collins from the Bobcats, to be honest.

I wouldn't mind trading JJ. He has shown improvement, but he will be redundant when Boozer comes back. Scal seems to be getting some minutes still (and it still puzzles me why) so he doesn't get consistent PT. I think we need to add another player into the roster though, whether it be through free agency or through trade, to give us that comfortable level of depth.

Alright, how much did he pay you to make you type that?

Alright. Looking forward to it mate.

Nice disguise there. What happened to the offer anyway?

Mavs with DeShawn Stevenson's expiring and a 2nd round pick for Solomon Jones and Danthay?

Maybe it's cause I just looked at the thread about him, but Earl Barron doesn't have a team yet and I am still surprised that no team has snapped him up yet. Maybe the Blazers should consider him. I wish Oberto the best, by the way.

^ Westbrook was just stunning today. I only started watching from the last two minutes of the 4th quarter and he grabbed like 4-5 offensive rebounds.

I am desperate for a new sig right now so if anyone can make me a sig of D-Rose or CP3 or Jeff Green that would be great. Cheers in advance.

Bledsoe did a good job today, is it too soon to say Baron Davis will not be missed if he gets traded? As for the Thunder, I am really surprised by this start. I know teams won't underestimate them now, but still, losing to the Clippers this bad is bad.

^Yeah, he was playing so bad that Semih Erden could have taken his spot. No offense to Erden, but Jermaine is suppose to be way better than that.

I would be very, very shocked if this is true.

Keep it coming guys. Haven't been updating the list but I'll update when I got some free time on my hands.

C-Webb said that on Fan Night. Made me

No surprise there. I don't think, even with a complete product, the game will attract many people. By the way, now NBA Elite is passed onto Tiburon, who handles the Madden franchise as well as the Fight Night franchise.

Get in line Charlie V. You'll be behind Francisco Elson.

^ Didn't help much on D there though. Henry just dribbled all the way to the other side of the court and hit a runner. He's a good player, but he had trouble defending Kobe in the first half, where was Tony Allen?
