Would you rather have KT for Keon or KT for LaFrentz? Rumor has it that it is another option that Layden is concocting.

C - LaFrentz or Keon
PF - Lampe/Sweetney
SF - Van Horn
SG - Houston
PG - Eisley/Williams

Hmmm. Zone Defense?

Anything Scott LayDown is doing, I believe will be detrimental to the team. He has officially gotten my vote of "No Confidence". I don't know what LayDown is trying to do to my team. Raef LaFrentz??? Oh, boy...

Gimme Keon. Fire LayDown.

I am glad you asked. Yes, I have thought about it. The Mavs are dying for some inside toughness that KT can give them, to at least slow down the big men in the West. Nellie has stated in more than 1 occasion that one of the biggest blunders the Mavs have done in recent years is not trying hard enough to keep KT. This move for the Mavs can work on different levels.

1. In offense KT is not your back-to-the-basket type of big man. He is a mid-range shooter that will pull the oposing big man away from the basket and he is quick enough to get rebounds since he hangs around near the basket in offense from the box to the shoulders to the top of the key.

2. In defense KT will work his opponent to get good position thus making his opponents lose some energy during the course of the game. Everytime we played the Lakers he gave Shaq some trouble taking Shaq down a notch from demigod status. I consider KT a poor mans Rick Mahorn. Hey, necrom33! You weren't talking about Mahorn were you?

3. In special teams...ooops...sorry thinking about my Jints again. GO BIG BLUE!!!

4. Those EYES! Man, he can make Shaq cower in fear or at least fall down laughing.

Wait, why are we trying to trade KT again? Oh, that's right. We have about 6-7 PFs in the roster with no legitimate center (Sorry Doleac )

I agree about Layden. Although, I am not opposed ot the Spree trade, Layden has lost my trust.

In regards with the 2 players, Keon or LaFrentz, I have not seen a lot of Keon games and cannot make a decision on him. With LaFrentz, I like is shotblocking skilss and I am a little worried with his rebounding skills.

nykbocker i see you took the bait but you still don't get it. you don't have to give me all those reasons of what you think thomas is gonna do cause i'm not scott layden

the mavs are willing to send lafrentz to the knicks and take the last toughness the knicks have.

if you don't think doleac is a legit center then wait til you see lafrentz

anyways the contracts don't match

i hope the knicks do get lafrentz. you deserve him

Actually, I don't get this statement. Also, you asked me if I asked myself why the Mavs would do such a deal.

OK

I don't think Doleac is a legit center. I said we have no legit center and was merely sending my apologies to Doleac.

anyways the contracts don't match
Just talking about the primaries of a rumored trade. Obviously players would be added to make the deal. Harrington and KT for LaFrentz works.

i hope the knicks do get lafrentz. you deserve him
Thank you.


If this trade goes down my only wish is for the Knicks to get the "Pre-Injury Denver version" of LaFrentz.

If not then we get another member of the SUNSHINE Boys!

Would you rather have KT at center or Keon/Raef/Theo? I would rather have one of the three because they are all true centers, good shot-blockers, and top-5 centers in the east.

you were trying to sell me on kurt
you don't have to sell me on kurt thomas i'm not scott layden. or should i say
i'm not a "scott layden"

you have got to ask yourself why the mavs would want to ship lafrentz for thomas. then if you are honest with yourself you will see that thomas is a much better post player than lafrentz. lafrentz blocks shots and is a 7 footer so ... that doesn't make sense "if" lafrentz is a legit center and thomas is not. you follow me?

if the knicks wanna put lafrentz as a center and the mavs want a shorter kurt thomas inside then something don't add up then do it

and harrington and thomas for lafrentz don't match. i caught you in a lie

I wasn't trying to sell you on KT. I was merely stating why the Mavs would want KT.

Where did they play LaFrentz last year? Center when Bradley is on the bench. PF when playing alongside Bradley. If they get him their starting lineup would be...
C-Bradley
PF-KT
SF-Dirk
SG-Finley
PG-Nash/NVE

Not bad.

In Bradley and LaFrentz you have two good shot blockers but not the physical post defender you need. I am using another Shaq example but when LaFrentz guarded Shaq it was lights out. Shaq just overpowers Raef all the way inside. With KT when he played Shaq he pushed him away from his comfort zone and when Shaq decided to score Shaq was using a dimmer.

In regards with the lie, I don't think so. Maybe you should call realgm.com a liar since that is where I got my info. Trade ID number 1157135

P.S. I would never call you a "Scott Layden". That is a dirty word(s)

okay. go back and read my post. i know why th mavs would want kurt. that we agree on

my thing was if lafrentz trade was worth it then why would they be giving up a legit to get a non-legit presence.

the shaq vs lafrentz scenario is so played ou it's not even funny. don't use the dominant presence to make a point. shaq is not the problem with lafrentz, lafrentz is. but i hope the knicks do get lafrentz. and kurt goes to the mavericks.

all that back to the basket stuff is ridiculous when you are discussing the mavs. and you know it

the mavs want to get rid of lafrentz because he is weak minded. they want kurt because he is willing to try and mix it up

your post exclusively shows kurt's value.

this a lafrentz quote: Raef LaFrentz: "If they're looking at me to be a dominator underneath the goal, I never have been that and probably won't be that."

feel that

and the trade doesn't work. lafrentz is due to make 7.5 mil this season thomas and harrington are due to make 8.3 million

real gm lied to you

all those years as a fan and now i'm the anti-knick. life is crazy aint it.
