    Is It Too Early To Try To Move Up in the 2007 Draft

    That's pretty much the problem right there. The only way to get him is to wait and see who has the #1 pick and offer a trade with them. But nobody is going to trade Oden. He's already too hyped for any franchise to pass up. We could try to make an offer to Atlanta (i.e., give back their...

    New Pat Burke Web Site

    That sounds like a good plan to get published. Maybe someday you can do a piece on Arkansas' Track Coach John McDonnell. He never gets enough press for his accomplishments.

    McKie to Lakers, Traylor to Nets...

    Here's a view from the LA Times I thought it was odd they chose a lifelong SG for their PG spot. And his 3-pt% isn't Phil Jackson quality (at least not what PJax liked when he ran the Bulls, which is the template I thought he would be using for this version of the Lakers). BTW-McKie's...

    Hawks disturbed by Joe Johnson's desire to play for them

    "leadership abilities" LOL, that is funny.

    Houston Not being waived. Possibly Williams?

    Great eplaination, Baltimorer. I was laughing at the Knicks when I heard this on the radio. I'm still laughing at the Knicks, but at least this particular move makes sense now. :D

    Ted Turner to get involved?

    They added that info after I had posted the link. Or I would have quoted it as well. That makes sense, and I've been wondering why we haven't heard other S&T offers. This could end up working out well for us and JJ. That would be an interesting twist.

    Ted Turner to get involved?

    I wonder if this is right. Has anyone else heard of anything like this? LINK

    Belkin is cheap

    I agree. Some Hawks fans are actually wieghing the pros and cons of the deal. Thats the wrong way to look at it for them. Its not like there are any other FA's even wanting to go to ATL, much less one with real talent. The price is a max deal, Diaw, and 2 1st rounders. They have been living...

    Check this out! We think things are bad! ;)

    From 13 wins to the playoffs? Wouldn't that be better than what the Suns did last season? No way. :D I personally think Joe may be a legitimately special player. I don't think anyone else has his combination of huge frame, midrange, 3-point shot, passing, and ball handling. And his...

    Belkin Sues Other Hawks Owners

    As much as I complain of my own bosses' incompetence, I'd have to think about that offer first. :D

    Belkin Sues Other Hawks Owners

    I wonder if JJ realizes he has been strung along more by the Hawks in these past few weeks than he has for the entire past year with the Suns.

    Hawks managment news

    I'd wager in that case JJ plays out the remaining year of his contract. He still has bargaining power in that regard if this falls through.

    All of a sudden, Sarver's ownership looks much better.:D [/color][/size][/font]

    Hawks managment news

    Joe would be an All-Star triangle PG. And I'm impressed that he has the ability to be a good backup in a fast break offense. But Atlanta, given their small size (and great athetes), are going to get a walk-it-up PG in JJ. So I'll agree that he should struggle. I think he would be a great PG...

    Hawks managment news

    That's what I'm wondering. $70 million is a lot of cash to be offered without knowing if everyone is on board. Especially the guy that must sign off on the deal. And here I thought we were going to have a boring offseason. :D

    I think Bell already is the steal of the offseason so far. We nabbed him before the market for swingmen skyrocketed. Score one for Sarver.

    Hawks managment news

    I didn't realize what kind of hassle it was to get anything done inside the Hawks organization until recently. What a messed up organization! If they are really about to take an issue to court in order to settle something that they should be able to handle themselves, I can't see anyone...

    Three Team Trade Turns to FIVE Teamer!!!...

    My JJ history/thoughts

    JJ was being mentioned as a ROY candidate (along with tinsley) during the first part of his rookie year. He did worse and worse as O'Brien gave him less and less minutes leading up to his trade to the Suns. I've always felt JJ was a rythym shooter and needed minutes (and the ball, often)...

    Coro on the Amnesty rule

    LINK This is the first I've heard of teams splitting the difference of the new contract above the minimum. In the Finley scenario above, does all $3.1 million still count against Chicago's cap?

    POLL: Will they Match or Not?

    This is a good poll. :thumbup: I voted yes simply because the pros outweigh the cons for re-signing him.

    All weirdness aside, Michael Jackson

    I agree that Jacko can sing. In fact, in his early solo career he had an amazing pop singer's voice. But his later music was nowhere near the quality. It seems that his earlier music (like Off The Wall and Thriller) showcased a more masculine, edgy voice, and after that his music became...

    Deal for JJ no sure bet

    I'm not saying JJ is upset with how things turned out financially. But if he is upset with Sarver's refusal to sign his extension it was probably because it showed little faith in JJ's abilities. JJ doen't need to thank Sarver or even appreciate him for that, just because it turned out to be...

    Deal for JJ no sure bet

    Now that's just bad math. And as for all those saying he just isn't worth it, I would like to find a copy of this "Athletes Price Guide" you have. Because the market for top quality wings has been set. In 2005 JJ is worth the max.
