QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 05:19 PM) Pistons extend Stuckey Jeff Green (Celtics) is now scheduled for a heart surgery in a couple weeks (non life threatening) but he'll miss the entire year. That Perkins trade was terrible for Boston.

Wow, the Padres absolutely robbed Cincy in this deal. Grandal and Alonso? Damn.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Dec 17, 2011 -> 02:18 AM) And I love Ellen Page. That's the first thing I noticed was that the girl looked and sounded like Ellen Page.

QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 16, 2011 -> 01:51 PM) 2 more teams! Come on, hacks! I got the last spot.

Need about 4 more for an ESPN league. Head 2 Head, draft is subject to change, but right now I have it on December 23rd at 6:45. Shoot me a PM with your email if you're interested.

Jimmy Butler looks pretty good.

Cuddyer got overpaid big time. Kubel's a mediocre DH. They just seem glorified to us because the Twins usually kick our ass.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 15, 2011 -> 03:14 PM) I mean, how you gonna mock Crawford's D (which I admit is awful) and not recognize that Hamilton's is just as bad? There's no Ben Wallace, Rasheed Wallace, Prince, Billups and 2004 rules aiding him. Hamilton at least knows how to play defense and is capable of fitting well into the Bulls' defensive scheme. I'm not sure I can say the same for Crawford.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 15, 2011 -> 01:23 PM) Crawford to the Blazers. Same price as Hamilton... Can't say that I'm pissed off or anything because Hamilton's a better all-around player, but I'd take Crawford over Korver any day.

If he was making $20 mil a year off drugs, why the hell was he still playing football...?

Apparently, the CP3 to LAC deal is back on. ESPNSteinLine Marc Stein Just filed w/@Chris_Broussard: Sources close to talks tell ESPN there is renewed momentum to seal @CP3 trade to Clippers as soon as Tueday

I thought Billups said he wouldn't report to the team that claimed him on waivers...?

I don't even want to think about Dwight. The whole LeBron crap from last year taught me not to get my hopes up. Especially since our front office is conservative as hell.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Dec 11, 2011 -> 12:17 AM) David Stern is the hero we deserve, but not the one we need right now. So we'll hate him, becuase he can take it. Batman quote FTW.

KC Johnson is saying that the Bulls will give Rip Hamilton a 2 year $10 million deal by tomorrow. Not bad for a stop-gap and a definite improvement over Bogans. I really wished that JR wouldn't be such a greedy bastard though. Apparently, they didn't even offer Jason Richardson the full MLE contract. SMH.

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 09:20 PM) Bass and Davis is pretty much a wash, Davis is probably a little better defensively because of his bulk, while Bass probably has the better mid-range jumper. But paying $6.5M annually for Big Baby is a waste IMO. A guy who shoots 44% at the PF position isn't really going to be a huge asset unless that improves. EDIT: And we got Von Wafer also. Well Dwight will definitely be staying now! Davis' TS%: 50% Bass' TS%: 57% You're talking about an above average shooter vs. a piss poor shooter. Especially considering the fact that Davis takes a lot of high percentage shots. I really don't think Dwight's coming back. And if that is the case, then this move was just a serious WTF.

QUOTE (3E8 @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 06:22 PM) I didn't realize how stacked the DBacks were with pitching prospects. Dang. I like Cahill, good trade for them. They're a strong team. Cahill's high GB rate is a good fit for that park. However, that Arizona infield isn't the 2010 Oakland defense. Cahill was great in 2010 because the A's had a hell of a infield defense to support his high GB rates. Arizona's rotation is looking good, Cahill is a pretty good pitcher for a #3 guy.

QUOTE (Cali @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 06:57 PM) The hitters were so baffled by his resemblance to Bobby Hill that they just couldn't hit the ball with any authority...

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 06:22 PM) Wished we tried to go after him on that deal except for signing Big Baby @ 26/4 in a S&T deal with Brandon Bass. But apparently Davis was one of the guys Howard demanded Otis Smith sign this off-season to have any chance of keeping him, so that's what they've done. Before you know it, Monta Ellis or Josh Smith will be on our roster just to appease Dwight also. That is flat out stupid. When you know Howard's most likely going to be gone, why the hell sign his buddy, who IMO, is far worse than Bass? Glen Davis is terrible.

I wouldn't mind Crawford playing 25 min a game off the bench as the 6th man if the Bulls are getting him. JRich would be more of a 30-36 min full-time guy since he can actually play some defense. I think right now, he is the most ideal FA for the Bulls, but he might be out of our price range. I definitely would not mind starting Brewer and giving him 20 min a game as a SG/SF and having Crawford come off the bench as a 25 min player. It would lessen the minutes load on Deng (he shouldn't be playing 40 min a game, more like 34-36). Korver's role would also be reduced, which wouldn't be a bad thing. So basically, you have a 4 man rotation at SF/SG with Deng: 36 min at SF Crawford: 25 min at SG Brewer: 20 min (8 at SG, 12 at SF) Korver: 15 min at SG The defense will take a slight hit, but I think the offensive production will outweigh that.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 9, 2011 -> 03:53 PM) Ya, so one of my friends wrote this article. Good kid but he's one of the worst writers I've ever seen and he has a complete lack of sports knowledge, enjoy and please leave comments on how big of a moron he is: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=ycn-10640141 Bogans a defensive liability? Oh really...?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Dec 8, 2011 -> 08:26 PM) Why would anyone want Odom anymore. Two words: Khloe Kardashian.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 8, 2011 -> 05:50 PM) If not Howard, then Okafor or something has to be coming back from the Hornets. I doubt Derrick Caracter will be their new starting 4. Probably. The salaries don't match at this point. Maybe Ariza will go back to LA if it's not Okafor.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 8, 2011 -> 05:45 PM) At this point it's a foregone conclusion. The Lakers don't swing and miss. How the hell will they get Dwight? They have nothing to trade except Bynum. The only real chance they have at Howard is signing him next off-season.
