Patrick +3So, it appears that Mike Bibby is being followed more closely than Britney at a child custody hearing. -
RedBaron I'd like to see the Warriors use that trade exception to swap Brandan Wright for Jason Richardson.

A. kursieren, hat Henry Abbott anhand einer einfachen Rechnung erklärt: die Lakers liegen derzeit 1.2 Millionen $ über dem Cap, d. h. sie müssten Ende Oktober 2008 einerseits 1.2 Millionen luxury tax zahlen, andererseits bekämen sie nicht die 2.5 Millionen $, die ein Verein dann erhält, wenn er unterhalb des Caps bleibt. Wenn das Management der Lakers nun also einen Trade initiieren würde, in dem 1.2 Millionen oder mehr an Gehaltsausgaben abgebaut ...

Meanwhile, mathematics say that Portland will simply have to free up some roster spots either before the deadline or come summer time. Mr. Abbott (aka H.Abb the AbBot, HoodyHoo!) makes the point that the ...

The Shaquille O'Neal to the Suns for Marcus Banks and Shawn Marion trade sure did come out of nowhere, right? Lots of questions, so let's get to them (and maybe provide an answer or two): 1. Let's start with the Heat... how did they do on this trade? This is a pretty easy one to answer. Most everyone thinks they did well, and that's correct. The general consensus seems that getting rid of Shaq's enormous contract was a great move. But they did better than that. In essence, they laid the foundation for the rebuilding of the Heat into a championship contender. No NBA team has ever gone from last ...
