You think Sweetney can be counted on for 17 and 10? I see a guy who is overweight and foul prone, which will make him very inconsistent and unlikely to put up those kind of numbers. As for getting a PF from the draft who will walk in and start, don't count on it. The fact is, KT was valuable for rebounds and stability. It could get worse before it gets better without him.

keep it simpler:

tim + #8 for boozer + #6

but i think this is his next move and why he moved kurt now. i think boozer is a knick as of next tuesday night.

Yeah this works.

Granger at 6 tho. I don't care what our needs are, let all these wings battle it out and trade who we are not keeping to fill out our front court. This is the best way to do it. YOu don't take a big at 6 and there are none projected to be that good at 6.

I think Green and Granger will be gone at 3 and 4. Chad has Frye going #6 to Utah. If I am 99.9% sure that Frye will get drafted by the Knicks. Moving up the board is just making sure that it happens

Green will not be selected at 3 if the Blazers are picking there. Nash already has problems with him and his agent, and he likes both Wright and Webster just as much.

For anyone who thinks Sweetney is some guarenteed double/double man think again. Like KT or not, and I didn't love him and thought he was kind of soft, when was the last time he blocked a shot or dunked?, he did give you numbers.

i don't get this. in 19.6 mins a game last season, he averaged 8.4 points, and 5.4 rebounds. how does that not translate to double double if given 35 mins a night?

to be fair, there's a reason he only averaged 19.6 mpg...he gets into early foul trouble, his conditioning is poor, & he has lapses on the defensive end...you can't simply project a guy's #'s over a shorter stretch & assume he's going to put up a double double if given more minutes.

Personally I think Boozer is a little overrated.

I think if you are one Boozer trade away from turning your team into a championship team then you make the trade for him... otherwise I'b be a little more patient and wait for something better.

something better? What better player are you gonna get for Tim Thomas??

For once, Bonn, I think we're on the same page. Better than
Boozer for TT? I don't think so. (I'd trade him for zilch
for addition by subtraction). The only thing you might be able
to argue is that you don't want Boozer's contract, but don't tell
me you'll get a better player for him.
