1. Kevin Garnett isn't being traded to the Bulls

2. I think I like the TJ Ford trade for both teams. Villanueva was kind of a risky draft pick by the Raptors and ended up being one of the top two or three rookies. Well, there is a reason why he was such a risky draft pick and there is a reason why Colangelo is such a good GM. So instead of banking that Charlie continues to be a good player without problems, trade him for a direct need. TJ Ford is a very solid point guard who I think still has a lot of upside. I was a big fan of him at Texas and was disappointed to see him sidelined for so long. On Milwaukees front, a guy like Villanueva is probably of more use to them. I don't forsee him getting any worse, because I don't think his problems are like that, but if he can still be a solid forward for the Bucks it could lead to good things.

Man, if New Orleans can get PJ Brown to come back they should have a pretty solid squad.

Desomnd Mason = crap
Kirk Snyder =?
Peja = Wait until he disapeers in the playoffs with some mysterious knee injury. I will be laughing my ass off. It will happen.

West and Simmons = Nice players, but still pretty far from playoff caliber. Maybe a year or so away.

Tyson Chandler= One hugely overrated peice of crap.

This team isnt playoff caliber imo. In the East maybe, but not the West. Unless Chris Paul just totally blows up like Steve Nash or something.

Not according to some genius at ESPN.com. One of their "Insiders" had a big column about the Hornets acting like they are legit when they are not. I would call a team that consists of a rookie and PJ Brown nearly making the playoffs very close to legit. I don't think they'll win a title, but I'd be pretty shocked if they aren't in the final 16 next year.

I wouldn't go as far as to call Desmond Mason "crap". A front court of Hilton Armstrong, Tyson Chandler and Cedric Simmons can easily survive in the new Western Conference. Houston will still be awful and I am not holding my breathe for Pau Gasol to do anything spectacular. The Hornets will finish third in the division and seventh in the West.

Good picks. I think almost every team in the West has possible playoffs teams, The 8 you listed and Memphis, Houston, Utah, Seattle and GS. Minnesota is still too young and Portland has been trading guys like they are Pokemon lately.

I forgot New Orleans was in the West. Nevermind

Golden State could be pretty damn good if Baron Davis could not get injured all the time. They probably won't contend until they get rid of Dunleavy and Foyle though

Getting Marquis Daniels is a very interesting aquisition for Indiana. I've liked this guy alot. I'm not sure why he got burried in Dallas for. He was hot his rookie season and then they paid him big money and burried him. Indiana is apprently going athletic and getting rid of there white guys. I think this move could be a sleeper pick for move of the year once next season is about done. Now if we can just get rid of Stephen Jackson, Jamal Tinsley, and get David Harrisons head screwed on straight. We might contend . Oh yah. Maybe get Jermaine O'neal out of diapers for a full season would be nice too. He seriously needs to man up from day one of next season or i guarantee you he'll be traded before the deadline. I promise that.

Jermaine sucks, he was on the verge a couple years ago but he is done. You should trade him while he still has some value. Marquis Daniels for Croshere isn't a bad trade for either team I think. Dallas was just loaded with the swingmen.

This is my East:
1. New Jersey
2. Cleveland
3. Miami
4. Chicago
5. Washington
6. Detroit
7. Orlando
8. Milwaukee

LeBron resigned, not too surprised. Much ado about nothing if you ask me.

Also, I was just reading a Pat Forde column on ESPN.com and this stood out.

Quote:
Class of 2007 star O.J. Mayo, from Cincinnati, reportedly has made a surprising oral commitment to Southern California (an arrangement that, if consummated, won't last longer than the Trojans' final dribble of the 2007-08 season). Class of 2009 star Renardo Sidney -- whose father, a former school security guard, is now a paid Reebok "consultant" -- has moved from Mississippi to L.A., according to several media reports.
Lol, college basketball is fucked up.

Apparently Miami is in the Mike James lottery now too, although I don't know why he would go there when they will still have Jason Williams, Gary Payton and Dwayne Wade (to an extent) next year.

Huggins wasn't ever going to get a recruit like Mayo to spend a year in Manhattan, Kansas. Cincinnati was out of the question when Huggins left. As for UCF, is that Central Florida? Do they even have a basketball team.

Marijuana found in Carmelo Anthony's car

Associated Press
7/11/2006 6:48:02 PM

LOCHBUIE, Colo. (AP) - Police found marijuana in Carmelo Anthony's car during a traffic stop, but the Denver Nuggets star wasn't in the vehicle at the time, officers said Tuesday.
Anthony and team officials refused to comment. Anthony is set to sign an $80-million US, five-year contract extension on Wednesday.
Police said Tyler Brandon Smith, who identified himself as Anthony's friend and roommate, was pulled over late Sunday in this small town 32 kilometres northeast of Denver and cited for marijuana possession and three traffic infractions.
Police said Smith was driving the 2005 Dodge Magnum, which was registered to Anthony's company, Melo Enterprises. Police said two other men were in the car, but they were not cited and their names were not released.
Police Sgt. Dan Boyle said Smith was pulled over just before 11 p.m. Sunday on Interstate 76 in Lochbuie, a town of 3,300. An officer smelled marijuana and found a small amount in the centre console of the car, Boyle said.


Smith was issued summonses for possession of less than an ounce of marijuana, driving in the passing lane when prohibited, failing to drive in a single lane and failing to present proof of vehicle insurance.
Each charge is a misdemeanour. The marijuana charge carries a fine of up to $100 US for conviction but no jail time.
Smith was released and the car was returned to him because his address was the same as Melo Enterprises, Boyle said.
No phone numbers were available for Smith or Melo Enterprises.
Bill Duffy, president of BDA Sports Management, which represents Anthony, told the Rocky Mountain News that Anthony was out of town Sunday and had nothing to do with the incident. Duffy did not immediately return a call from The Associated Press.
It was the second time Anthony has been linked to marijuana. In October 2004, Denver airport inspectors found marijuana in his backpack, but prosecutors dropped a drug charge after a friend said the marijuana was his and Anthony didn't know about it.
Anthony has also made headlines for a bar fight in New York and an appearance in a bootleg DVD in Baltimore in which a man threatened to kill drug snitches.
He averaged a career high in points last season and led the Nuggets to the top of the Northwest Division despite a rash of injuries.

I am just a little skeptical because he had career numbers, not even close, last year. If he can put up 15-5 a game though, assume 22 from Garnett, 20 from Davis, 14 from Foye, we'd be a decent center away from the playoffs.

Although it's not the first time something like this has happened, doesn't the fact that he was not even in the car make the story somewhat irrelivant? Or at least not this sensational.

Rumors are Al Harrington to GS which would be a HUGE pickup for them, now if they can get a good center.

ESPN insider says that both the Raptors and Suns are offering John Salmons 5 year contracts for 27 and 22 million respectively. This seems pretty ridic but I guess this is the new trend in the NBA
