    Gomes + Bab for Marty isn't bad at all.

    Re: Webster traded for Babbitt

    Now that Gomes is involved, I like this deal. Gomes > Webster.

    Gomes has a partially gauranteed contract. That could be HUGE in a trade for CP3!

    Holy S***, we get Gomes too? I really like that kid. This could really end up a steal.

    Re: Webster traded for Babbitt

    Ya, I was thinking the same. This is a much better deal than just Marty for Bab

    Well I do like Gomes. He seemed to always kill us. I will miss Martel. Babbitt looks great

    Re: Webster traded for Babbitt

    I don't like this trade at all. Webster did well off of the bench, and filled in fairly well in the starting lineup while Batum was out. I don't see Babbit having that kind of ability, but maybe he will be more consistent. Hopefully Gomes can fill in at back-up PF. Whatever. This draft started off poorly for me with the effed-up timing of the KP firing, and I like Webster, so I'm just being a bit pessimistic.

    And that, right there, is why KP was canned. Either that or dumping Sergio. You can't recover from such screw-ups.

    Haha. You can name two PGs that have flopped big-time at age 20 or younger. I can name a dozen 21 years or older.

    Do you really want to keep talking out of your ass or admit you're ignorant on the topic?

    I've got some bad news everyone.

    Luke Babbitt just retired.

    So sad.
