  1. Jermaine should be classified as a PF as well then, no?
  2. According to Art Garcia, Amundson's going to the Warriors. Here's to hope that Hornets get Barron instead and Emeka can get a Paul Millsap-type of role.
  3. Harper was like 36/37 years old by the Lakers era and unlike Fisher, Harper rely a lot on his strong body and his athleticism. Sure, his role in the Lakers team was minimal, but he did have an impact with the Bulls and that's still 3 championship teams.
  4. What's wrong with what I said?
  5. Yup same. Going to be the holidays when it comes out so probably just gonna stay at home and play like 2-3 games everyday.
  6. MJ, no doubt. Off-topic: Had MJ not retire for 2 years, I bet you the Bulls would have won two more championships, which is truly a shame.
  7. Boston: B+ Great signings to address the interior problem for when Perkins is gone. Losing Sheed and Tony Allen hurts a bit but nonetheless still a nice off-season. Wing depth could be a problem though as to who plays back-up SF (not a fan of Daniels) LA: A They improved their bench without losing anyone of significant impact. Blake > Farmar and so, really nice offseason. Not to mention the two rookies got potential to enter the rotation in this deep squad, which is another +.
  8. They just take links from all around the world wide web anyway, so it was quite unlucky of you to encounter one with virus.
  9. Kobe v Michael. The most successful swingman in the 2000s era against the most successful swingman in the 1990s era.
  10. Jason Kidd is with PEAK and KG is now with ANTA, another Chinese shoe brand. Looks like the Chinese are trying to break the duopoly in the basketball shoes market.
  11. Well the first thing that came to my mind that associates with passing is assists...and hence, the greatest passer IMO is John Stockton.
  12. I can see Deng, Taj Gibson and James Johnson + picks gone for Melo. This would be the 'best' care scenario for us to obtain Melo without trading Noah.
  13. Still, I expected Spain's B-team to give up a fight, not concede soft goals like Reina did and lose 1-4. Spain's A-team > Argentina's A-team, however.
  14. I don't think Khedira will do well in Real Madrid but that's just a feeling I got. I would much prefer Lassana Diarra playing instead of Khedira. I like the 4-3-3, but Di Maria would be better than Benzema on the wing because he is a natural winger. The biggest issue is still chemistry of the team, let's see whether Mourinho can guide them through.
  15. Ron Harper, most people would remember him as the PG for the second Bulls' three-peat but he was a threat before then.
  16. One thing of note is that while defense is part of the determinants for a grade, offense is not, which may explain why Warriors got a low grade.
  17. I thought Barron would get more offers than Amundson because of his size and what he has done with the Knicks when given time last year, but he would not be a bad back-up plan for Pacers/Warriors. I like Amundson with the Hornets though, more of an inside guy than Songaila and Sean Marks (or whoever they had for back-up)
  18. Just thought this is of note...good to see him back in the NBA circle. Source I still remember Nick the Quick being one of my favourite players back in the day and with Eddie Jones form my all time favourite backcourt.
  19. The jaw of life was used on the other driver, so hope he/she is okay. If Brady have enough time to think that he didn't need to be taken to the hospital, I guess he is okay.
  20. Shaun Livingston will take the PG spot during the season for the Bobcats, Augustin is just not a Larry Brown type of PG. Love will be a double-double player but I am talking about 15-10 so I am not sure whether that classifies as a break-out season considering he posted similar stats this season I believe. Nonetheless, he is a good player already. The rest I agree with having breakout seasons because their minutes will increase significantly.
  21. Definitely in Sports games' case yes because they have to release a new game every year and only by adding 'new' features would they be able to attract buyers.
  22. Portland are really being patient with this Fernandez issue. I highly doubt that he is in their future plans, but I suppose they would rather let him rot on the bench then to send him to the Knicks or some other team where he might flourish.
  23. This sounds amazing. Finally, I don't have to take 3-4 seconds just to set up a pick and roll.
