    Dwight Jaynes is probably the laziest basketball journalist around.

    I'd trade GO for Paul.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    As much as I like Oden, I absolutely would. Oden is a potential once per generation center. Paul is already a once per generation point guard. And point guards are important enough that it cancels out the "big for small" injunction, IMO. You definitely trade potential for realized ability.

    I can't see New Orleans going for it, even to save money. But if you add in Rudy and Bayless...I don't know. It depends on how much they want to shed salary and their own evaluations of those three players.

    The fact that he claims to have "friends" is a bit of a tip-off. :drumroll:

    Fuck that! New Orleans is a dump. KP should just sign me this summer and we'd be set!

    That guy in your sig needs to get some real rims. Is that supposed to impress me? Anything under a 6 foot diameter doesn't do it for me.
