The Perpetual NBA Thread

Don't forget NOK, Houston and Minny in the West and Boston and Philly in the East....it's so early to come up with predictions. Jeeez, we're only in the first week of the FA season.

only positive i see from the daniels trade (aside from financial flexibility) is...byebye KrapVanHorn! ;D

oops sori po, yep new orleans is a sure candidate for the playoffs this coming season

but one thing is for sure, spurs and detroit are not the top dogs anymore!!

power rankings na ba?

IMO minny didn't do anything significant to improve its team so far in the off-season. there's a great chance they'll miss the playoffs again. i read about a kenyon martin-ricky davis trade but then that'll just create scorings probs for the wolves.

he he what denver desperately needs is a top-caliber perimeter shooter!! -dapat sila ang nag-snatch kay peja!!! pwede rin kunin nila si bonzi via a sign and trade (ruben patterson, kenyon martin,1st rd draft pick for kenny thomas,bonzi wells,alex garcia)!!!

Big rumor na ba yang KMart for Ricky Ricky? ...maybe this is the reason why KG won't budge at least for 1 more year. With their 1st pick(Randy Foye) and Troy Hudson plus a motivated Kmart & KG....wow!

they have carmelo already...who plays the same position as peja...
sila pa lang dalawa 140M na...

denver needs a banger (Drew Gooden?) and a 2 guard (Bonzi Wells)

**zidane21** · July 6th, 2006 04:39 PM

with a mediocre point guard (slash-1st type pg in form of hudson plus injury-prone) minnesota will have a lot of problems in chemistry regarding point distribution, what they need is a very good pg who is a court leader (like cassell before) and of course a good coach who will motivate them and give them a winning attitude!!

denver lacks a shooter to spread the floor, at least that was their key problem last season. imo they have post presence with camby and k-mart or nene.

there are rumors that damon jones might be traded and magloire is going to the spurs..

Troy Hudson's ankle won't be 100% for the rest of his career. Makes me wonder why Minesotta gave him that big contract. He's not a point guard, he's a combo guard. He'd be better off comming of the bench.

Peja to Denver? Well he already signed with New Orleans. For arguments sake, Peja to Denver won't and will not happen, they've already committed 60M to an unproven Nene, 80M to their franchise player Melo, they're paying K-Mart Max money, Camby gets 10M/year, Andre Miller gets around 8M/year, Ruben Patterson around 7M/year, so in short, they're capped out. If its a sign and trade, it won't happen, Denver doesn't have anyone other than K-Mart to offer, Indiana won't take K-Mart's Max contract.

Big rumor na ba yang KMart for Ricky Ricky? ...maybe this is the reason why KG won't budge at least for 1 more year. With their 1st pick(Randy Foye) and Troy Hudson plus a motivated Kmart & KG....wow!

Mmm... Maybe its K-Mart for Ricky Davis + scrubs, their salaries don't match. I wouldn't count on Troy Hudson if I'm a Wolves fan, he hasn't played a full season for two years right now because of that troublesome ankle. Will that trend change, highly unlikely. As for K-Mart, two words -> Microfracture Surgery.
