John Wall when healthy is a top-5 point guard in the league. He showed us his talent last season when returning to full health off of that injury and really impressed quite a few people. He was able to put up big numbers both for himself, as well as assisting his teammates. There's always a...
I'm a big fan of Terrence Jones and what I saw in the Summer League games. He's gotten stronger and developed a much better all-around game. He may not be ready to start every day for an NBA team, but he's close. I'd give him a shot and see if he can prove himself during the preseason. He's the...
Very happy with my Cubs win this evening over the Cards. Gregg scared me terribly bad in the 9th, but we held on for the 6-4 win. Definitely looking MUCH better than last year. Really hope we lock Garza up with an extension, but I know that he will be traded in the near future. 6-1 isn't bad.
Jennings would be a solid pickup for the Atlanta Hawks. Will be interesting to see if these talks proceed and end up happening. Teague is a great fit with Larry Drew, and would be a good fit in Milwaukee as well. The Hawks are not wanting to completely re-build for some reason, so they need to...
The Clippers are negotiating with both Shaw and Scott. Will be interesting to see how this situation plays out. My guess is that the Clippers will end up bringing Scott in to try and help please CP3, as the two have had a very close relationship since they were in New Orleans together. Shaw...
It would certainly be a sad day to see Kenny leave his broadcasting job, but he would be a great GM. He's got great knowledge of the game. Would be interesting to see what he would do out there in Sac-Town. Oh well, won't mind either way.
Love this move by the Colts. The one weakness that they've had consistently the last few years ever since Edgerrin James left really was the rushing attack, and adding Bradshaw really helps that offense. He's a legit option that can make plays and also be used as a pass-catcher out of the...
It sounds like Ellis just wants to find his way out of Milwaukee, and to be honest, I can't blame him. Yes, they finally brought in a good head coach in Larry Drew, but they're a few years at least away from being title contenders. He's going to be looking for a 4-5 year deal this offseason...
This would be a very interesting trade for both teams. The question becomes what do the Bucks do with that 3rd overall pick? I'm guessing that they're very comfortable with John Henson taking over the PF spot. My guess would be that they go after a guy like Otto Porter to take over the small...
Very surprising move by the Nuggets. Not sure exactly what happened to make them let him go this off-season, but they should've given him the extension. He's been very loyal to that team, and the players love him. Hope things work out for Denver. As for where Karl's next job is, don't be...
Was reading on Twitter earlier this evening that the Kings are meeting with Larry Bird over dinner this evening to discuss him taking over as the teams new GM. Would be a very nice move for Sacramento, but as a Pacers fan I'd absolutely hate to see him head somewhere else. Really hoping he comes...
Is Flacco overrated? Absolutely he is. That being said, he is a superior QB to Schaub. He's got a bigger arm and as Bosox said a couple posts earlier he has "great games" in him while Schaub just doesn't.
Bosox is 100% right. Their offense has talent, but they're not a top-3 NFL offense. They're a high powered offense, that's true, but nothing too special. As for their defense, it leaves a TON to be desire. They're going to get killed in their secondary as they didn't really improve it like they...
Personally, I've got the Spurs winning this series in 6 games. If it goes to a Game 7, then I have the Heat taking it in 7. Wade and Bosh are the keys to this series. If they play the series like the played Indiana, then the Heat aren't going to have a chance against San Antonio. Even LeBron...
This is a great hire for the Milwaukee Bucks. They've been needing a guy with a strong, stern voice in the lockerroom, and neither Skiles nor Boylan had it. The question now becomes, what does the roster look like for him? They've got a very talented team, no doubt about that. Drew knows how to...
Would be very interesting to see how much better his career numbers would look had he been able to stay healthy. He found a way to put together a very nice career even with all the injury issues that plagued him the majority of his NBA career. Was one of my favorite players, and I wish him the...
