I have heard a few people say the Blazers next year will make it as far as the West Finals (never know the Jazz made the West Finals in 07 after having a few down yrs) I dont think they will yet. I do think however they are a playoff team but will bow out in a close series 1st rd or will get swept in beat in 5 in the Conf Semis

Wow, Davis just turned down almost 17 million by opting out. Has plenty of money obviously but still, that's A LOT to turn down. Guess he really wants that long term deal.

They don't really need him though. I think he could potentially go to the Clippers, I heard that Elton Brand only opted out so he could resign for less and help the organization...that leaves more money for Davis (plus Corey Maggette just opted out as well, so I think the Clippers would have some money freed up)
I have no idea that Brand thing is true though, if not, imagine Brand going to a team like the Suns? Last edited by Jesus Shuttlesworth; 07-01-2008 at 01:00 AM. |

I think Kyle Korver is gunna man up and rape a girl this season. I think he has it in him. It'd be some good ole fashion street cred. He'd be the toughest white guy in Utah. Especially if it ends up being Matt Harprings wife.

Heard the Celtics are offering the mid-level exception to Corey Maggette, I dunno, we'll see. Probably would mean Posey is out though? I dunno about all that...

Brandon Rush does remind me of Pierce. I think he has that kind of game and could possibly turn into that type of player, the problem is, we have like 4 SF's. Wheres Rush gunna fit in? Play him at 2guard behind Dunleavy? Dunleavy will get atleast 80% of the minutes. You'd think something was in the works. If you draft Rush, you're telling me that you'll be trading Dunleavy or Granger. Because why else would you draft Rush? You dont draft a back up over a potential superstar PG/SG who would start right away. I like Rush. He might be the best perimeter defender in the draft. His defense is fantastic and he supposedly showed a ton of Offensive skill in the draft camps that no one knew he had because he was mostly being a " team player " at Kansas. I hope thats true. The guy was a top 5 pick a year ago before he tore his knee up. I like Rush alot, but why draft him if he aint got a shot at starting? Why over Bayless?

RP, You can ask "Why" about every aspect of the Pacers franchise. Larry Bird is terrible, and I feel sorry for all Pacer fans.

I think I've seen what the jerseys could look like. They may have been made by some fans but if its legit the jerseys look really nice. The main colors are black and gold and white. Gold being the accent color. There's a possibility that other NBA teams could move to other cities in the future too. If the Hornet's average attendance is below a certain number next year then they can opt out on their lease or whatever and leave town. Sacramento could move too especially since the Maloofs spend most of their time in Las Vegas. I've always wondered why LV didn't have a professional team and like the idea. I also like the idea of a team in OK so there could be more teams in the midwest but I'd rather have a team in Kansas City instead of OK. I thought driving through Kansas was boring but Oklahoma is pretty awful compared to it. At least near KC there's lots of cities and populated areas where people can come from to support the team instead of farm land galore in Oklahoma. |

Good, getting him outta the Western Conference. Davis and Brand would be way too much to handle.

Is that Brand thing gonna happen? I haven't seen it anywhere but on message boards
Also just read on Sportsline that Maggette is going to the Warriors, wonder if that means Posey will be back in Boston? |

Warriors offer Ronny 17 mil over 4 years. I personally hope we don't match that offer sheet, let him walk, he's not THAT good... Also that frees up more money for us to try to get Artest. We already have offered L.O. For Ron.

I wonder if the Pacers can find a way to trade Tinsley to the Warriors for a small contingent of there average fags.

Poor Clips? Livingston is coming back, isn't he? Kaman is a good underrated center, and they got B-Diddy now...
What sucks is that they lost Maggette. |

Nah Livingston is a free agent. So from last years team they lost Maggette and added Baron Davis (since Brand only played 8 games) probably going to finish with around the same record.

he's no Brand, but he's pretty good. |

Is it just me or does the East look like it might be the best conference. Not only all the superstars on the East side, but alot of teams drafted bright futures.. I guess Indiana might be one. Beasly and Rose both in the East. Lebron, Arenas, KG, Pierce, Bosh, Travis Diener, Wade, Howard.

lol Travis Diener
The West top to bottom is the better conference but I would take the top teams from the East over any team from the West (basing it off last season anyway) Western Conference teams don't play D like the Celtics or Pistons do. |
