<div class="quote_poster">Quoting wizard21:</div><div class="quote_post">Nobody in the East needs a center, cos nobody apart from the Cavs (who suck) and the Bulls (who are still young) have true centers.</div> Hello, the Cavs are the youngest team in the league, lead the NBA in rebounds, are 2nd in blocks, and are in the game until the final minutes with an 18 year old rookie point guard. No Wagner all year either. You want to debate? Better bring it harder.
^ Saw that one coming. hehehe. I wouldn't like Sheed on my team. They invested so much on K-Mart so they better reap the future benefits. Yes they are disappointing but you know them. They've owned the East the past two years. They'll do it again this year.
No way would I deal K-Mart for Sheed, I know both of their contracts will be up too. I keep K-Mart, he is an impact player that has got better the last few seasons. I may not like his personality, but I deal with him before I would ever deal with Rollblunt Wallace.
Rasheed is a headcase but playing with Kidd would really help him.A new start would help his career.I would rather have Sheed it would also help the Nets cap situation with the Mourning thing is in a bad state at this current moment in time.People don't realise how good Sheed will be in the eastern conference playing with a guard like Kidd.He is on a team that is loaded with talent and a guy who has taken his power forward spot in Zach Randolph.Sheed=more complete player.
Don't get me wrong. I like Sheed as a player before (he seems to be taking too many outside shots now), but him for K-Mart? I don't think so. K-Mart is on his way up. Plus, I don't want Sheed to influence NJ's young ones in a bad sort of way.

Second youngest? Utah. Utah dont suck, they are above .500 in the West. The Grizzlies are fourth. Also above .500 in the West. And Cleveland may have the youngest team, but Utah have the least average experience. Cleveland are second. The other 3 teams in the Top 5 least experienced squads (Seattle, Memphis and Denver) are all above .500 in the West. First in rebounds, 2nd in blocks. Again, who cares? The Lakers arent top 10 in either category. They are the best team in the league at the moment! Here are my stats to back up my opinion that Cleveland suck: 5-15. No road wins. Tied for bottom of the division. They wouldnt be a playoff team in the EASTERN CONFERENCE if the season ended today. They have an 18 year old rookie point guard who is playing very well. The way you phrased it, it makes it seem like you are placing some of the blame for Clevelands record on the fact that they have an 18 year old point guard. Lets just get away from all of the LeBron hype and say this: Cleveland are not a very good basketball team. Maybe i made an error in blaming the Bulls record on their youth. So is this better: The Bulls also suck.
I was not debating on if they are playing good basketball or not. I will just not stand for people saying that any team "sucks", that is immature and lazy. We are going to be a more professional board here. What a genius, you can look at a teams record and say that they suck, I commend you.
I like the Pistons in the East. They may not have a true superstar on their team, but guys like Chauncey Billups, Rip Hamilton, Ben Wallace, Mehmet Okur, and Co. step up every night and they contribute well as a team. They also play great defense which is something that every team needs to succeed. The Pacers to me are a fluke. I know their record may be the tops of the Eastern Conference, but when they play the teams of the West, like the Kings last week or the Lakers, they just stink it up. New Orleans should be right there behind the Pistons once they get Mashburn back.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting wizard21:</div><div class="quote_post"> The Bulls also suck.</div> I'm no Bulls fan, but I'm curious to know your personal opinion on why the Bulls suck.
Oh, so you didnt like the way i phrased it? Okay, well Cleveland arent a good basketball team. Is that any better? Ditto the Bulls. That Jalen Rose trade was HORRIBLE! Yeah i looked at their record. Because surely that is a pretty great indication of how good a team is! Their RESULTS against other basketball teams? And as for "What a genius, you can look at a teams record and say that they suck, I commend you", you asked me to back it up, and i feel i did. Sorry, who is being lazy and immature? Damn, man. You gotta be a Cleveland fan. If so, then i'm sorry i offended you in any way by ripping on your team. But an internet message board where you have no right to argue each others opinions?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting ThaLord:</div><div class="quote_post">I didn't understand a word what you just said </div>
About the KMart for Sheed thing, no way. KMart is far too good and athletic to get rid of. He's still developing a little bit, but, he's very good. Sheed may be good, but, it's like something that was already mentioned, he's really beginning to take too many outside shots. He needs to go to the post. And, if they trade KMart from him, they lose their best post prescence.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Sandman:</div><div class="quote_post"></div> Ha. And i thought this was a "professional" basketball board. Bitches. I might be back one day when i think y'all know enough about ball to even bother arguing with. Peace.
