That's what the Jamrio Moons, Anthony Parkers of the world are for. JC is known to get bargain players to play for his team. Plus he has the MLE and LLE to work with along with Kapono and possibly Bargs.

He needs to demand the Pacers second round draft pick and start buying other picks in the draft with cash.


I don't know why they haven't contacted the two of us for GMing internships?

because their intent is to put together good teams....


Hey I thought J.O. should have been the Raps target before the summer ended. Me and DJ along with a few others discussed some scenarios involving us and the Raps situation in general and as witnessed we had some very realistic and plausible ideas. I'm kind of surprised they were able to acquire O'neal though. If he stays healthy then Colangelo will have put together a good team.

i think there are alot of people that can seriously work for nba front offices...but we're not aware of how much politics go on which could dictate alot of decisions.

all i know is that if o'neal + bosh gel and the increase in minutes to calderon propel him to another level point guard...the raps are going to be tough next season.

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

they can live w/o defense from the pg spot w/ parker, moon, bosh and o'neal providing enough d to compensate. i think jose playing w/ bosh + jermaine and for 30+ minutes is going to put up close to 10 assists a night.

No different than what happens to Tony Parker and Steve Nash on a nightly basis. For every Whiff Calderon has on defense he more than makes up for it on the other end by having a ridiculous Assist/Turnover Ratio. Fans act like point guards play defense. There might be 5(Rondo, Paul, Deron, Kidd, Billups, Hinrich) in this league who play it, 2 of them are declining the rest are mediocre to garbage, turn the ball over, low assist totals, ball mongers, and/or have no respectable jumper or offensive game.

I'd be surprised if he didn't put up at least 10 assists. Calderon is a great passer and efficient shooter. But you can also count on all-day penetration from the opposing team's PG. They will do whatever they want.

I'm just not sure that he is really a better player than Ford, who can also put up 10+ assists, penetrate at will, play some decent D, and straight up take over games with his scoring ability.

But I understand that Ford was risky with his health and all.

i like ford alot also but i don't think they lose too much production while exponential gain a staggering improvement at the center position.

I did not realize Kris Humphries was that good! Don't forget, you have Jermaine "The Ambulance" O'neal!

On a side note, I respect Tommy John and elder players like him, but today is the NBA Draft. They couldn't find somebody to cover the Mikes who fit a little bit better being what the news of the day will be?

yeah really... bring in Isola for crying out loud... anyone but Tommy John.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
