Just in my opinion, Steve Nash was put into a team with four other guys who could run the ball, and thats what made them so great. There is no way they can be a running team and there is no way Amare can penetrate the inside like he did with Kurt Thomas clogging it up. Steve Nash was just a great basketball player in Dallas, but he was an MVP with the guys who can run in Phoenix. That being said, I don't think Kurt Thomas is the guy you get to play an important role in a playoff run. I liked the run and gun :sad:

Not trying to say Loren Woods is good or anything, but it really is impressive that he is staying around. I remember the Wolves taking him as a 2nd round DP, and its rare for them to last a few seasons.
Anyway, the last two mocks that I saw had him going 6th to the Jazz and 10th to the Knicks, so I guess he is pretty high up. How come Salim isn't anywhere to be seen? There are so many guys who were the shit in college but like aren't NBA prospects at all this year. Its weird. |

Salim looks to be an early 2nd rounder.
Diogu might be taken by PHX. Frye better be taken by the Warriors!! |

Warriors will take that Martynas Adriusvienckiasytliabakaaitis guy and he will sit in the bench in 06 and 07 and go back to Lithuania in 08.

That one guy, not sure if its who Da Miz is talking about, but he's some foreign point guard, he is looking suddenly pretty interesting to me. He seems to have good size and a lot of good things said about him.
Also, tell me why I shouldn't like Jarret Jack? I don't think the Wolves could move down to like around No. 20 in the draft and get a good player, like Jack or McCants, but my friends try to convince me that Sean May is amazing and so is Danny Granger. I still like Jack, convince me why I shouldn't. |

No, I really think the Warriors won't fuck up this draft. They need a guy like Frye. And there are a few mocks which I have seen that show them choosing Frye.
I wish it was Tuesday. |

His bio on the site I look at a lot says he is a great playmaker and a great defender with good speed. I don't know why the Wolves would draft a wing man with Ebi, Hassell, Szczerbiak, and even Sprewell still looking like they are going to be there next year, and I would prefer to get a role player/Kurt Thomas

So in a thread about the Suns and the Knicks, BCWWF has made 5 posts that have some sort of Wolves reference in them. Go figure.

Kurt Thomas is a modern day Horace Grant. He can stand up and hit jumpers. He's actually one of the best big man shooters in the league. He crashes the boards and has decent passing skills for a big man. He's also a rough charachter. He plays tuff and muscles up alot. I think he would be a perfect fit for the Suns, but not at center. He's no Ben Wallace.
As far as the other side of this " alleged trade". ( ESPN is a horrible source.) If you have Stephon Marbury and Quentin Richardson in your starting backcourt. You just dont want to win championships. I like Marbury alot. I've liked him since his days in Georgia Tech. Stephon just doesnt work unless he has a superstar teamate. He's the key to the Bentley. Now you just need the Bentley. Get it? When him and Garnett were together. They were great. Imagine if they matured together and played together up to this point. The Timberwolves would have atleast 3 titles. No doubt about it. Put Stephon with Lebron James. Cleveland wins a title within 3 years, but put Stephon with Jamal Crawford. You get consistant 29-40 win seasons. You never get a decent draft pick because Marbury is always just good enough to keep you challenging for a 8th seed. This is facts. He did it with the Suns. He did it with New Jersey. So why in the hell would Isiah Thomas think that trading your best big man ( Most underrated PF in the league, which will be seen once he is Pheoenix , because the west coast knows nothing about Kurt Thomas), your second best player, your most reliable and consistant player, for Quentin Richardson. The inventor of the bull horns hand gesture. If New York ever wants to get in the playoffs again, fire Isiah Thomas. |

I think this is a great trade for the Suns. I would bet that they play around with Thomas starting but eventually move him to the bench.

Completely off topic, but where do you think Shareef ends up? I saw one report mentioning Cleveland. I think if they retained Z, he would help them a lot. One that I thought of would be Milwaukee. A lineup of TJ Ford, Mike Redd, Desmond Mason, Shareef, Bogut could put up some wins (assuming TJ is alive and Redd resigns). Does anybody know if Milwaukee is looking at him?

Rumor about Shareef is that he wants to go to Cleveland if they resign Z. He wants to play with a true center and I'm sure the Lebron factor is huge.
I heard Ray Allen would also sign with Cleveland for less money than he is demanding for the Lebron factor. |
