possibility of finishing higher than the wolves... I didn't specifically say playoffs...
on paper they are better than the wolves as of right now...

............................

btw any hawks fans?

looks legit .. but u never know

With the attendance they are getting I won't be surprised if they give away free tickets.

The Wolves will finish with a better record than the Clippers next season, that's common sense.

Trade between Atlanta and Phoenix
Joe Johnson to Atlanta for 5 years and 70M$ <==> Boris Diaw + 2 first round picks and 6M$

Gr8 for Bobo! :rockman: It was almost done since 3 weeks but Steven Belkin didn't agree. He's out now

man... how do the Hawks manage to splash those kinda cash with the average attendance they have? 70M contract for one player and giving away 6M in a trade?!

I bet the Hawks own every strip club in Hotalanta.

They have a bunch of cap room or well had before wasting $16 mil on this trade.

I think JJ is good.. but man...70mil for 5 years.......an average of 14 mil per year?? also 20mil the first year? wow..

that's a star player salary... I mean JJ can become a star but he's not there yet...

oh.. and bonner re-signed with the raptors... 2mil per year for 2 years.. a reasonable contract for a fan fave and bench player.. and his jumpshot is almost automatic.. and he's a character guy..

finally found sth on Green's finger

"When he was 11, Green was playing in his Houston home, where he had put up a makeshift hoop over a doorway. While wearing his mother's class ring, he caught the ring on a nail that was holding up the basket. "I was trying to see how high I could jump," he said. Almost a decade later, Green's father, Gerald Sr., still cringes when talking about the accident. "They couldn't re-attach it," the elder Green said. "So they had to shave off part of his finger. I had nightmares about it." "It was amazing that no one (from the NBA teams) asked me about it," agent Andrew Vye said. "I brought it up because I didn't want it to be a surprise to people when he was in Chicago (for pre-daft camp)." Oregonian

Fox news reports that Yao just got a 5 year extension..

5 year $75m
considering this summer JJ/Redd/Hughes got huge deals, this one is a bargain.
he's a legit center, 18-8 and improving!!

and who says yao can't run on the break? :rockman: :rockman:

Yeah too bad it's only 3 minutes into the 1st quarter and he's not completely exhausted yet which takes 4 minutes.

Yao, despite his hype, actually deserves the max. How many legit centres are there in the NBA now? They're a rare commodity, and Yao is still young and improving FAST. he could still use a lot of bulking up but he still makes a huge impact on both ends of the court.

And if the likes of Okur can get ridiculous contracts I don't see why Yao can't.
 

Jacky

Senior Squad
yeah... about his endurance is true.. he gets exhausted a lot...he has hired a conditioning trainer and should be better in that department..

now imagine if he doesn't tire out as much!!

well and he also had commitments to his national team.. so he did play ball year round while other players gets some rest in the summer...

oh yeah, updated news said his deal was closer to 80m

jeez is that yao ming or magic johnson with that behind the back wraparound!!! make him the point guard!!

looks like the hornets will play elsewhere for the 2005/06 season..... due to the distruction caused by katrina
 

Frostwolf

Starting XI
St. Louis might be a good alternative. It can't be too far, because it's most likely not going to be a permanent move.

Is that Shareef he's going around (H)



:nape:


he'll be good this season. by the law of averages, the kings should have no players injured for the rest of the decades. we've used them all up in the past 3 years.
