Gerald Wallace!!!

Great trade.

I suspect Wallace and that fat contract didn't have much trading value around the league. If this is the most Bobcats could get for Wallace, his contract must have left many GMs in a position they couldn't offer a good young prospect for him.

I read an article today about how mad Cuban was at the NBA for the Landry trade. He basically critized the NBA for taking on salary saying there are so many other teams that are not willing to do taht at this time, how can the NBA ethically do that(basically billing the other owners):

Cuban went on to say that because most of the owners can't take back salary in trades right now, New Orleans shouldn't be able to either.


So I think a large part of this trade is there is only a small pool of teams willing to take on Wallace's contract. And here we are in little old Portland Oregon being one of the few teams willing to take on salary at this juncture of the NBA . . . Thank you Paul Allen (or is that Al Davis, I get confused on this board)

 

RoyToy is my new BoyToy. Jealous much?

 

Pretty much guarantees Przy will be back, IMO.

 

4 years of play vs. not even giving a GM a trade deadline, or draft day to prove his worth.

Very much similar, yes.

 

That's great if it happens, but what's the plan for the next month?

 

Funny how that works, isn't it?

Some people just never grow up.

 

If I was gay, I might be. Hobbits can be fun, I'm guessing.

Since I'm not, I'll just point out your contradiction of yourself.

 

When I read it, I read he had two cats, a 4 month girl and a 3 month boy. I thought he was another Shawn Kemp!

 

well we have 2 roster spots. one for tj ford, one for dalembert? not sure who else is avail or talked of being bought out...

 

Anyhow, thinking about past years, I was opposed to getting Wallace because Batum was always involved as a part of the trade.

Getting Wallace without having to give up Batum? Simple awesome. Cho really did his job well at the deadlline. I can't believe Charlotte gave up Wallace w/out getting Batum.

 

Just read his first game will be Sunday against ATL.

 

What RoyToy and MediocreMan going to do now? Half of their material is gone.

Back to the drawing board, eh?

 

the top 3 Bigs on the team are Wallace, LA and Camby. I'd bring Wallace off the bench and play him almost exclusively at the 4 sliding LA over to the 5 when Marcus is seated. There are 96 minutes a night at the 4 & 5 spots, give LA 37 GW 35 & MC 28... I'm projecting a few minutes with Wallace at the 3

if Joel is to come back, give Wallace some more SF minutes

STOMP

 

I wonder if "the fragrant one" (har-fuckin'-har, get it!?) is "still evaluating" the merits of this Gerald Wallace deal?

 

the fragrant one? That was good!~

Speaking of MediocreMan, he seems to be saving face around here.

 

Without naming names, I'll say I think one guy has a little more range

 

Other than post about Kevin Love and stalk other posters, what's your game here, Zags?

 

To obsess over you, cutie pie. And get your little panties in a wad.
