    I hope not. Nico is a much better defender and shot blocker. :)

    Edit: Ah, fudge. BP got to you first.

    First he needs to develop a high school jump shot. But ya. That kid with any type of scoring ability will be a steal

    You are definitely talking about Batum. (Unless Marshall played for SLUC Nancy)

    I think the team might be regretting not giving him a decent offer when they had a chance. His value is skyrocketing right now.

    They balked at paying him 9 million or so a year ... they might need to shell out 11/yr now. C'est la vie'

    How crazy would it be if he made more then LA? How much was Aldridge's contract?

    Something like 12 million per year ... and I don't think he'll make quite that much.

    Well, if Nate had done the right thing earlier, they'd have realized it in time. They should dock Nate's pay for the difference.

    Look where Ramon Sessions is on that list. The Lakers think they're going to get him for just a pick. I will be seriously pissed off if that happens.

    He's certainly upping his trade value

    Monta Ellis or Rondo sounds good right about now
