    Do you care where he has played his whole fucking career of college and NBA? The dude is too fat to play SF. He is a PF.

    Tell me Diane Downs . . . how do you know what being on parole is like. :D

    (Am I losing points with you:( . . . I was just wainting to use a Diane Downs reference and you gave me the opportunity . . . I wouldn't dare pick on you)

    Actually, he has played SF more than PF in the NBA.

    And just because a guy played one position in college doesn't mean that is his NBA position. Pretty different games.

    Re: OT: PHX/CHA trade

    Kerr presser just ended. Key points;

    1. The trade was in the works for a couple of weeks but really got traction in the past two days.

    2. He said Richardson is a 20 ppg scorer, but also an excellent defender. His words, not mine.

    3. It was obvious that Bell was unsure of his place/role on the team.

    4. Trade is meant to inject some life into the team as well as the fans. AWA has been very quiet.

    5. Diaw's contract did not fit into the Sun's salary structure.

    +1, well I hope he never gets fired, but becomes known as part of the Thomas/McHale GM Hall of Shame.

    That's it, make him coach the team!

    When has JRich ever locked down anybody? If I had a choice of who I would rather guard Brandon in a late-game situation -- Bell or JRich -- it'd be JRich all the way.

    I don't have any personal knowledge of being on parole mainly because I'm incarcerated now and typing on the prison computer.

    And you WOULD SO dare to pick on me. Everybody knows it and they're all impressed that you really know how to sweet talk to the ladies. :pimp:

    Jordan has one of the worst eyes for talent I've ever seen.

    Btw, I'd rather have Brandon Wright than either Bell or Diaw. Great trade, MJ.

    If they are having a fire sale, Emeka Okafor is exactly what we need in a backup PF.

    Yea, I know how to sweet talk the ladies:

    "$$$$, $$$$$, $$$$!"

    OR

    "is that a Blazer floor ticket in my pocket or am I just trying to get you to reach your hand in there?"

    Don Juan baby . . . Don Juan

    (BTW- could someone help a Blazer poster out, I'm trying to get someone to tell us to get a room . . . maybe if spud hears it from someone besides me, she might just do it)

    Okafor is too good to be a backup. And his contract is not a backup contract either.

    The only guy I would be interested in is Gerald Wallace

    Re: OT: PHX/CHA trade

    If by "exactly what we need in a backup PF" you mean a $10 million a year player getting 20 minutes a game, then by all means, that's "exactly what we need in a backup PF."

    Jordan, Bird, McHale, Thomas . . . these ex NBA superstars turn GM don't seem to work out. Anyone think of one that did?

    yes blowing our future cap space and any chance to upgrade SF or PG to pay someone 70 million to sulk on the bench is exactly what this team needs to do.
