    J.R Smith To Denver

    I said He had "ridiculous hops" not handle, but he still has good ball handling skills. As listed by ESPN.com J.R is 6'6 220 and McGrady is 6'8 223 (And thats now, not when he came in the league when he was a twig) And J.R Smiths stats in just about the same amount of playing time as McGrady...

    No they wouldnt Damn people overvalue Kurt Thomas way too much. Foster is hands down better than Thomas on defense and rebounding, hes bigger and he makes less money. Foster averaged almost 10rpg in 25mpg. Now to Ely... This guy has the potential to be a rock if given the chance, and...

    J.R Smith To Denver

    I think J.R Smith is exactly like Tracy McGrady. Both came out of Highschool and got drafted because of their tremendous athletic ability, big size as guards and the ability to drain the 3. Both were very raw and everyone knew it would take a few years to develope all of their basketball...

    I'd take Foster,Ely,Haywood and Joe Smith over Kurt, and all of them make less money and are younger.

    J.R Smith To Denver

    Big thing with J.R Smith is that he would fit in perfectly in our system. The guy is a athletic freak that can bomb from long range. Maybe he just needed to get away from New Orleans and Byron Scott.

    J.R Smith To Denver

    http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=rotowire-mithxpectedtobeentto&prov=rotowire&type=lgns I wonder if D'Antoni is on vacation or something. First Snyder now Smith go for 2nd rounders, and we're no where to be found. Smith has a crazy potential and might turn into another McGrady if he...

    There are names on that list that are younger, cheaper and still just as good.

    Are you serious? There is a boatload of defensive minded Forwards that make around the MLE (slightly more or slightly less). Hell the Mavs picked one up for cheap in Diop last offseason. The only reason Kurt Thomas is on this team is because we found a sucker in Isiah Thomas to take...

    We were sitting comfortable in the standings, guys were probably starting to feel fatigue since everyone was playing more minutes than usual with both bigmen injured and the smaller injuries to guys like Barbosa and Jones earlier in the season. All those things piled up together probably put...

    Suns Offer Lucas Contract & Interested in Gooden

    But isnt Gooden a RFA? the MLE can't be offered to him? And agreed on Lucas about his size and defense, but still the guy looks explosive in the summer league and should fit in with our style of play if he signs with us.

    Yeah Kurt Thomas put us on pace for 60 wins with those 8ppg/7rpg , Its impossible to find players with those numbers making less than $8mil per year. :rolleyes: And Amare just didnt want to play center, so we could've gotten any warm body to start at center and he probably would've been happy...

    Suns Offer Lucas Contract & Interested in Gooden

    "The Suns are thought to be offering their trade exception, and draft picks in the Gooden sign and trade. " I think that is a little off It should probably say we're offering our MLE right? I don't see how this will work without sending them a contract like Thomas or Jones.

    I would :notworthy Sarver if he okayed these moves, and take back every cheap comment i made about him.(Well atleast for a little awhile :lol: )

    I'm not a good fan because i don't want Kurt Thomas? I love every player on this team, and i root for all of them. (I don't think Marion is worth max money, but i still root for him) But i didnt want Kurt Thomas, and now i hope they get rid of him. I live in New York and watched Knicks...

    Suns Offer Lucas Contract & Interested in Gooden

    http://www.sportingnews.com/blog/gamepass/23822 The Suns have reportedly tendered a two year guaranteed contract to John Lucas. Lucas who had a great summer league in Las Vegas playing for the Huston Rockets entry would fit into the Suns style perfectly, and would be a great back up for Steve...

    Old Gambo Rumor

    How did Kurt Thomas prove he could run with us? Did he finish the season running with us? Cause last i checked he missed most of the second half and the entire playoffs with a busted foot. All he proved was that at 34years of age, he couldnt stay on the court playing our style of ball. And...

    I Miss this Guy

    Wishful thinking, but the best thing that could've happend was us resigning JJ to $50 the year before, still sign Bell and trade for Kurt Thomas in the offseason, then trade something small like a 2nd rounder for Diaw. Remember Diaw had no value and the Hawks probably would've considered...

    Old Gambo Rumor

    He also never had to play on a team that ran at this pace. With Van Gundy and Herb Williams the Knicks had the slowest offense in the NBA. Thomas has no athletic ability(I can count the amount of times he dunked the ball on one hand !IN HIS CAREER!), Hes 34 years old, and he already suffered...

    Old Gambo Rumor

    I think Kurt Thomas is a disaster waiting to happen. Trade him before he blows out another wheel trying to keep up with the team for an entire season. Like i said earlier in the thread... 6 straight years with New York in that slow offense and he never missed more than 5 games in a season...

    I'd take Leo over all those guards that got big contracts this offseason. On potential alone Leo will get a $5-6Mil per year contract from some team trying to steal him from us when he becomes a RFA. He might have alot of holes in his game, but hes only 23 years old and he can put points on...

    Doesnt matter, thats what the market says he should be paid. Look what older players than him got this offseason (S.Claxton,B.jackson,J.Salmon and M.James)
  22. NastyOne

    Old Gambo Rumor

    Just cause a player wants $10Mil doesnt mean he'll get it. Look at Barbosa, really think he'll get the $7-8 per he wants? And trading Marion would allow us to keep Diaw and Gooden without going to much over the cap. Our big contracts would be Amare,Nash,Diaw and Gooden. Barbosa and Bell...

    I Miss this Guy

    Most of the time we doubled Dirk and Brand, it was Nash or another guard who came to help. But when Diaw did leave Diop every once in awhile to help, Diop got an easy dunk or put himself in perfect position to get the offensive rebound.Same with Kaman in the LAC series. Thats the reason...

    I Miss this Guy

    Yes it was, cause TT atleast could keep bigmen from backing him down. Hell, he was our best defender on Dirk and Brand.(Even though thats not saying much) Diaw's shot is good enough to play SF, and it keeps getting better. Plus hes longer than most SF's so he can post them up, but still...

    Old Gambo Rumor

    Who said Gooden will get $10Mil per? He'll get somewhere between $7-9Mil. And Even if we trade Kurt Thomas, we won't get the cap relief Marion would give us, cause no team will take on his contract without sending money back our way. Thats the reason for the Thomas for Gooden deal. Its big...
