No.

So was Deron just a prop to help the GM force out Sloan?

Not sure about that. I do think that the Nets got a better player than the Knicks did this week, and gave up less going forward.

 

agreed, but they didn't get him to sign an extension. not sure who made out better. it will depend on whether or not deron ultimately stays in NJ.

 

but yea, i lol'd when i checked espn.com and saw that the nets ended up getting a better player anyways

 

I think him not signing the extension is a good thing. If he does sign it will be after the new CBA so the price will almost certainly be lower. If not they can probably flip him somewhere next year and at least bring back what they gave up to acquire him.

Come on, Rip Hamilton has to be tradeable in some deal. Baron and Arenas have both been dealt in the past month.

if you aren't cheating you aren't trying duh

 

also it's not his fault he's dumb. instead of bashing him for cheating, we should praise him for using the little intelligence he has to agree to cheat. the guy just continues to defy the odds even when things are stacked against him.

I don't really give a poop. He shouldn't have had to go to college for a year anyways when it was clear he didn't want or need to. But let's not make him a saint or anything because he's really good at basketball.

 

He didn't go to college, he went to Memphis

I thought I read that he wasn't able to sign an extension until 7/1 (which is after the CBA expires)

When you play basketball for John Calipari, you don't have to be a student.

He had three one and dones in his 10 years at Memphis.

I hear Joey Dorsey was magna [expletive] laude.

The 5 people in the entire world who care about that post on this forum

 

I don't think anyone actually cares about it (even imb and ssr).

 

I care but that's because Memphis beat UCLA in the Final 4.

This gets funnier and funnier depending on the expletive I imagine being there.

Sorry, apparently it's Kendrick Perkins AND Nate Robinson for Green, Kristic and a pick.

[rawaction]

Does that help Boston this year?

[bukie]

Phoenix sends Goran Dragic + 1st round pick to Houston for Aaron Brooks.

OKC acquires Nazr Mohammed from Charlotte for Mo Peterson and DJ White.

The Cavs couldn't find a deal for Parker? Lame.

[SouthSideRyan]

Getting rid of Nate Robinson always helps. IMB, please sell me on Krstic. I'm not real excited about counting on Shaq to play 30 minutes come playoff time.

[bukie]
