    That's an oxymoron.

    I don't think that word means what you think it means.

    Would you do this 3 way trade, it works on the ESPN trade machine...Portland gets Terrence Ross and Rip Hamilton Chicago gets Andrea Bargnani and Wes Mathews Toronto gets Carlos Boozer Nolan Smith and a 2nd round pick from Portland.

    I'm a blue collar worker, I don't know much.

    It means contradiction.

    It would be nice if you could keep your insecurities on the OT board.

    There is no apostrophe in "Republicans", btw. Or in "Democrats", either.

    Are we playing alphabet soup Papa Daddio?

    I started the insecurity burn, nice to see you follow suit.

    You already know who I am. Is it too much to ask to keep this on the OT board?

    No, it doesn't mean contradiction.

    "is a figure of speech that combines contradictory terms"

    Sweet sorrow.

    Dark light.

    Living dead.

    Jumbo shrimp.

    It's usually two words that don't usually belong together that are put together.

    Several teams willing to part with first-round picks for Cavs PF Marreese Speights, but most in 20-30 range. Nothing enticing Cavs at moment


    Maybe JJ would be a good fall back plan for some of those teams?

    I have completely accepted that we most likely won't make a trade before the deadline.

    We would get a better deal this summer in a sign and trade.

    Maybe, but who's to say? Maybe JJ goes down with an injury, or gets busted for something stupid? You never know?

    True but in this scenario it's not for talent for talent. It would be more like resigning hickson for a lop sided trade to make salaries work. We are looking at free agents; but we may see a deal for an existing contract player.

    That could be applied to any player. You can't assume it is likely.
