Although, it could help us a bit, more youth and all, but it would be a big drop off in talent, I guess that's what rebuilding is.....

He was a GREAT streak scorer but honestly, do you think a guy thats never been consistant in his life is suddenly going to change in his thirties?</div>Mike James wasn't just playing well in Toronto, he was playing well in Houston before he got to Toronto as well. He might not have had the 20 points per game that he had in Toronto, but that wasn't his role with that team. His role was to compliment Shaq and Yao. He could hit his shots, drive to the rack, and often provided the spark for Houston to get them hot. Anyone that watched even a few of the Rockets games later in the season last year when he got there, would have realized that he was a good scorer.
He was a great scorer some nights for the Bucks but you have to realize that it's a bit strange that he keeps getting traded if he's such a nice player.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>James has lately come under fire for allegedly using the media as leverage for a contract. He has indicated that he would be willing to take a 2 year contract with an option for a third year to prove that he can still play at a high level. He has drawn criticism recently for using personal monetary benefits as excuses for wins.</div> - Wikipedia
I think he could be a nice scoring option for a team but he's going to want a huge contract. Somehow I see him ending up on the Knicks, some way or another.
