huh? so who has a better chance to make the second round in the west than the lakers and mavs?I know Spurs and Suns are two of those but who else?

Oh, no I didnt mean in that way. It was the "hypothetical" world, where nothing is really true. I was just saying though, that teams in theWest absolutely have to stack their respective team before the deadline, while teams in the East can literally sit back and watch it happen, and have the samesuccess.

Pietrus and Harrington to the Kings for Ron Artest

Yeah, he's indispensable. If there was any Wizard who I could see retiring here with the franchise, it's Tuff Juice. Odom for Butler

what's next, Kobe for Songaila?

Word.. when I saw dude post Lamar is far more gifted than Caron on the last page I was

 

[arog27]

Nice to see the Chicago Bulls involving themselves........actually....i dont see any good deals for us to make.....we blew the Kobe and Gasol deals...

[noblekane]

odom can play the 3 and 4...

Man stop it. Lamar Odom is not as good as Caron Butler. Period. How many minutes will Lamar spend at the 4 anyways? Unless Pau gets hurt again or gets in foul trouble, not many.

its called depth at the position. something the mavs dont have

Good one... Laker fans so full of themselves since they won the Pau Gasol garbage sale...

you mad?

garbage sale? yea, you mad....

the irony of you saying laker fans are full of themselves

You Laker fans are really relishing in the chance that you might get back to the Finals?

Not a chance.

Bounced in the Western Conference Finals by the Spurs, whether you like it or not.

The Spurs are still the elite team in the West and I'll give you 2 wins before you wave the white flag.

thanks for giving us a glimpse of the 2008 playoffs Captain Future..... what EVER would we do without you around here?

 

[youngjordan23]

L.A is good right now. The only trade i would like to make to team is something for another defender.

 

[beats05]

Ron Artest increased his trade value tonight. 24 points on >50% shooting, 5 assists, 5 rebounds, 3 steals, and a victory. Brandon Roy? 5-18. NY needs tohand over David Lee or Balkman

and odom isnt?

 

[mrmossyman84]

I want the t-wolves to make some kind of deal but I doubt it happens...

I would love to see them package Ratliff's expiring with Jaric's contract for some players...

 

[ballinboykz]

Saw this on a Raptors forum, and pray to god this isnt true.

Parker + Andrea for Okafor

I dont like this trade.

 

[enlightened thought]

and odom isnt?
no.

 

[barondavis5]

I pray VC doesnt get traded for the sake i have his authentic nets jersey. Mike Miller would be a great addition to the Cavs but not sure how likely he is toget traded there within the next 2 days.

 

[jdmfanatic]

GSW, land Artest already!

Dude, Lamar is one of the top 5 GIFTED players in the league.
6'11, left-handed, good dribbles, excellent rebounder, great passer, etc.
The problem with him is he's just lazy and inconsistent.
One game he'll put up damn near a triple-double, the next game he'll put up 2 points with 6 boards.
It's quite frustrating to say the least. Dude is just way too inconsistent to lead a team,
However, Lamar will thrive as a 3rd/4th option.

 

[enlightened thought]

^you pretty much explained why everyone in the L would much rather have butler than odom.

while he might be talented, it hardly ever shows. he has glimpses, but he's inconsistent.

 

[Hijo Del Promo]

lamar did good tonite, keep im, do not trade him!

 

[sensation87]

Multiple sources told ESPN.com that talks with the Indiana Pacers regarding a Carter-for-Jermaine O'Neal swap were dormant, but not dead, after the Netsspent nearly a week devoting their attention to the Kidd deal with Dallas.

Another source said there had been preliminary discussions on a three-way trade that would include, among other things, Carter going to the New York Knicks,Eddy Curry to Miami and the expiring contracts of Jason Williams and Ricky Davis to New Jersey.

Yeah I know, but the question was if Lamar is more gifted than Caron.

 

[barondavis5]

Butler>>>>>>Odumb

 

[denni5themenace]

I don't buy for one second that if the rest of the league knew Pau Gasol was available, there wouldn't have been a package that blew that deal out of the water. But, it is what it is.


actually, a lot of GM's knew gasol was on the market.
teams such as the cavs and bulls were dangling offers to memphis but none of those teams had what they really wanted (large expiring contract + draft picks)

yeah the lakers got a GREAT deal, but you guys act like memphis didnt get anything out of it.
and quite frankly, im tired of the whining.
