Sounds reasonable.

I dont get what Memphis is thinking, believing they could get #2 for # 28, Miller and Lowry

If Portland could land David Lee...wow, just WOW! To top that off, the 6th pick too? You just know Portland is going to do something. All these picks...wow,just WOW!

Yeah Yeah I know he's good I just don't see killer instinct in him....I'm not gonna let myself start on this again... I just don't see us winning a Chip with this guy....

jersey did a solid job of overhauling that roster in a hurry.

i thought the bucks were set on Yi over vill.

the nets now have a decent young core around a veteran scorer.

If Bobby Simmons is healthy then the Nets just fleeced the Bucks with future cap considerations.

Even if he isn't dealt, O'Neal's deal comes off the cap in time to re-sign Bosh, and for some shopping.

And I thought Isiah was the worst GM ever.
McHale is an idiot, he is completely infatuated with Kevin Love.... pathetic

 

[starbury03]

Whoa..I didn't see mayo to Memphis coming at ALL.

 

[mjshoefanatic]

I'm glad to hear that Mayo is in a better situation

He's really not, in terms of basketball, at least.

Grizz>Sota

Plus, he'll get way more PT

He would have got PT regardless

O.J. and Jefferson = DOMINANT.

O.J. and Gay = nothing.

Jefferson would make O.J.'s overall game so much better.

He'll be able to score more in Memphis, but doesn't have better players around him than he would have in Minnesota. The key is post presence, whichMemphis doesn't really have.

 

[thasoleful1]

how is mayo in a better situation he would look better with jefferson

edit* oh snap Wolves got Mike Miller too i didnt see that

OJ and Jefferson? How does that work? Jefferson is in Milwaukee.


And McHale isn't an idiot for this move, he got Mike Miller as well. Got rid of three cancers ('Toine, Jaric and Buckner) for an expiring (JasonCollins) and another cancer.

I'll give you time to think about that.
