razazteca Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 Who has Potopinko, did he go back to the Celtics? Maybe Olowakandi has the specific brain type that Danny Ainge likes and they could make a deal.
Guest JohnnySwift Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 Who has Potopinko, did he go back to the Celtics? Maybe Olowakandi has the specific brain type that Danny Ainge likes and they could make a deal. Potopinko is still with Seattle thankfully. I don't see where Ainge would have room for Olowakandi since the C's have Blount returning, Mihm (an Ainge favorite) and La Frenz coming back from injury. I doubt Olowakandi would be any more effective in the east then he is currently.
nogoodnick Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 Twolves match Blazers offer for Trenton Hassell.
Steviekick Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 from sixers.com Philadelphia 76ers President and General Manager Billy King announced today that the Sixers have acquired forward Corliss Williamson and an undisclosed amount of cash in exchange for forward Derrick Coleman and center Amal McCaskill. McCaskill, a free agent who played for the 76ers in 2003-04, was re-signed to a contract today prior to the trade with the Detroit Pistons. --------------------------------------------------------------- I'm guessing Darko will get a lot of playing time. All Philly has to do is get Glenn Robinson to have a good season or trade him off.
Krankor Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 I had completely forgot that Amal McCaskill was even in the league anymore. Why on earth would Detroit want him?
Cuban Linx Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Someone to keep Darko company on the bench.
therealworldschampion Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 I guess Larry Brown "fell in love" with Coleman again. The should've tried to send him McKie too.
Krankor Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Damn Detroit is starting to collect a lot of hosses from around the league.  Ben Wallace Elden Campbell Derrick Coleman Antonio McDyess Rasheed Wallace Amal McCaskill  Too bad Cleveland scooped up Robert Traylor. He would have fit right into the mix of hosses. Darko was intentionally left out of the list of Detroit hosses.
bobobrazil1984 Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 ^ well Shaq IS in the east now. Need bodies and fouls to play against him.
The Electrifyer Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Maybe Corliss is just still being punished for throwing that errand behind the back pass.
Steviekick Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Maybe. The best part of that deal for the Sixers is that they got paid cash as well as getting him.
Precious Roy Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Shareef is just a horrible fit for Minnesota. He's not a very good defender, all he does very well is score, and Minnesota has no shortage of capable scorers with KG, Spree, Cassell, Wally and Hudson. He'll get 8 boards a game on a weak inside team but he's not very agressive on the glass, gets them more due to length and good read of the carems. IF there is a better rebounder on the team he will not make an impact. Look at his stats once he started playing with Randolph, he went down to like 4 or 5 boards a game. Â KG shouldn't play center because he's simply more effective at the four. Â And as for Kandi Man, he's a good player who had some bad luck last year. If you watched the Playoffs you'll notice that he turned in some very good performances in a limited role. Even with Shaq gone you need a capable big man in the West to compete with Yao and Duncan and when Olowokandi is healthy and on his game he can give those guys a tough matchup. This was also the first real injury of his career so it's too early to write him off as injury prone and I suspect he'll have a very productive year this season, not to mention that Ervin Johnson offers nothing except 15-20 minutes of effort a game. McHale would be a fool to take "the first offer," but thankfully he understands the value of a skilled big man.
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 too bad he doesn't have any  The Crawford trade is finally official  Knicks get:  Crawford (7 years, at least $56 million) Williams (3 years, $18 million)  Bulls get:  Mutumbo (1 year, $4.5 million) Harrington (1 year, $3.85 million) Trybanski (1 year, $1.8 million) Williams (1 year, $1 million)  now the Knicks are trying to package Thomas and Mohammed for Erick Dampier   just for the hell of it, here's the Knicks if all this goes through  Marbury Crawford Thomas Sweetney Dampier  Houston Penny Anderson Norris
therealworldschampion Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Maybe. The best part of that deal for the Sixers is that they got paid cash as well as getting him. Â I'm suprised they got more than a rack of basketballs for Coleman.
The Fett Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Looks like Peja wants out of Sacramento. Â http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/bask...c.ap/index.html
alfdogg Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Ouch. Â Mark Cuban must be drooling all over himself right about now.
razazteca Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Spurs need to send Robert Horry and 2 draft picks for Peja.
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Apparently Detroit will cut both Coleman and....uh...the other guy. They just wanted to get rid of the Big Nasty Contract  I know Peja's pissed off about Webber and Vlade, but I can't think of a better fit for him in the whole league then the Kings. I hope he stays put. Because you know the Kings will want Dirk, and Cuban will say hell no.
The Electrifyer Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 I wouldn't mind a trade with Peja for Vince Carter. It'd please me.
Krankor Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 I must bring this up... Kidd for Peja? Â I know the Kings already have Mike Bibby at PG but he is expendable and can be used as trade bait to get a SF from another team.
Krankor Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 The Crawford trade is finally official Knicks get:  Crawford (7 years, at least $56 million) Williams (3 years, $18 million)  Bulls get:  Mutumbo (1 year, $4.5 million) Harrington (1 year, $3.85 million) Trybanski (1 year, $1.8 million) Williams (1 year, $1 million) Thank god Jerome Williams is gone. He only ever had one good game in a Bulls uniform.  Cezary Trybanski can teach the big men in the windy city how to have no talent and yet stay employed.  I'm happy about the additions of Harrington and Mutumbo. They should bring something useful to the team. I'm very excited about Chandler being able to work with Mutumbo. This could mean great things for Chandler in the future in terms of his defense.  Also Frank Williams might want to play decent like he did in college now that he's back in his home state. I'm not counting on anything useful out of him or Trybanski though.
nogoodnick Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 The Blazers #1 priority is to land a sharpshooter this offseason and Peja is on of the best obviously. They could trade SAR to Sacto for him straight up if theyre contracts match. SAR could start at SF with the Kings if he wanted to play it.
The Electrifyer Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Cezary Trybanski can teach the big men in the windy city how to have no talent and yet stay employed. I think most big men in Chicago were already taught that lesson.
The Czech Republic Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Cezary Trybanski can teach the big men in the windy city how to have no talent and yet stay employed. Oh so he works at the DMV.
Krankor Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 He does have the same blank stare that most people working at the DMV have.
Vern Gagne Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Wally for Peja or Wally and Magic for Rahim
The Czech Republic Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 He does have the same blank stare that most people working at the DMV have. Probably has the same grasp of English as the people waiting in line.
Cuban Linx Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 If Peja wants out of Sacramento i hope Portland makes a move for him, Stojakovic will top just about anything else the Blazers could get for Abdur-Rahim. Maybe throw in another player or two and they should have as good a deal available as anyone else, Stojakovic outside, Randolph inside and Ratliff clogging the middle defensively with the likes of Anderson and Miles around them sounds good to me.
