Jalen Rose is a fcuking cancer and I guarantee him and Carter clash sooner than later. Everywhere Rose has gone, he gets into this mindset that he is "da man" and usually demands the ball more than he probably deserves it. The only situation he was useful in was back with Indy, when he was surrounded with vets like Jackson, Miller, the Davises and Smits. They kept his crybaby ass in line. Once they were gone, Jalen went back to being the biggest coach-killer in the league, as he nearly ruined Isiah (although Isiah completed the kill in his own unique way) and basically got Cartwright fired.
I guess this trade is good for Toronto because I believe Davis is on a steep decline and JYD is straight garbage. He makes a lot of hustle plays, but doesn't play with much discipline and has zero offense. Chicago has a ton of forwards already so I don't understand why they wanted to pick up two more front-court guys - although I think it was pretty clear that Paxson just wanted to get Rose the hell out before he became an even worse influence on the "Baby Bulls".
If Rose can keep himself in line, which probably won't happen, Toronto got a steal of a deal. My guess is that he plays about 1-2 months of second fiddle to Carter, and at the first sign of Vince going soft (and there are a lot of those signs), he starts questioning the leadership and the direction of the team. Just a guess.

Sensei,
I think this is the year Carter establishes himself as a go to guy for the entire season. I dont see him fading away like he did the last couple of years. He has taken alot of shite from the media, fans, and his own teamates for being to soft, and every indication so far in this young season has him playing harder and stronger. He looks healthy , which has not been the case over the last couple of seasons. I think especially last year, he was being pushed to hard to get back in the lineup because they were losing and he was taking alot of the blame. It is kinda hard to play strong every night when your being forced to play and your not even close to being healthy.
I like Jalen Rose. He is a great ball-player but his attitude stinks. He gives the Raptors alot more options on offence and he is a pretty decent defender. He is comfortable bringing the ball up the court and should combine for a scary 1-2 punch with Carter. Your right about him though, if he starts to bitch and complain there will be problems in Toronto.
Hopefully JYD will have time in Chicago to see a decent dentist and get his teeth fixed. Davis was a good player for a long time in the NBA but his time is done, good to see him be able to end his career close to home, I hope he enjoys losing 60 games a year.

Antonio Davis is a bitch. I was getting really tired of hearing him whine about his children having to be raised "Canadian" like that was somehow going to fcuk over their future. The guy is an idiot, but I'll give him credit for always playing hard, even if he wasn't thrilled about his situation. I don't know where he really fits in Chicago, if they're planning to give all the minutes to Curry and Chandler, but I guess he'll be a good mentor to them.
JYD is a fan favourite and gives you his all, but that's not much and I think the Bulls got killed on this end of the deal. Marshall is a much more useful forward and has way more offensive ability than JYD. My guess is that he goes to Chicago and gets less PT than he did in Toronto.
I do agree with what you're saying about Carter. But the big "if" is in regards to his health, which has been a problem now for two straight years. It is hard to maintain an explosive and athletic style of play, especially when you are prone to a certain type of injury. Look at Grant Hill and his ankles. Anyways, if Rose can take some of the pressure off Vince, and doesn't mind being second fiddle, then this trade is a steal for Toronto.

I like this trade from the Raptors perspective. It simply gives them a proven secondary scorer behind Carter. Rose should fit in nicely if he realizes that Vince runs the show in T.O. and he will still get plenty of oppertunities to put the ball up. Davis is the biggest cry baby I have ever seen and if you tell me he gives it 100% all the time I say bullshite. There is no way a one time all-star can go from where he was to the non factor he is now. 8pts a game is a joke from a proven power forward. Good rididance hope your kids grow up to hate Canada to you overpaid putz.
The addition of Marshall also adds some scoring punch off the bench. Look for the Raptors to now go to an up tempo fastbreak style of game which you would think would fit Carter to a tee.

Grizz Get Bonzi Wells
Even though Wells comes off as a dickhead, he's a really solid SG and will give the Grizz even more depth on the perimeter. They basically get an upgrade from Person for a draft pick they don't really need, given how young they are. West makes another solid move. Too bad he wasn't in charge when the Grizz were here, instead of the retard GM duo of Jackson and Versace.

Good to see another cnuting TrailBLAZER arrested for Driving Under the Influence. Well done, Zach Randolph. You are now an official member of the largest gathering of criminals impersonating an NBA team. Fcuking cnut. Poor Mo Cheeks looks like he was smoking some of the funny stuff at the press conference yesterday.

"NEW YORK -- Rasheed Wallace, the Portland Trail Blazers' talented but temperamental forward, on Saturday was suspended seven games by the National Basketball Association for confronting and threatening a referee.
The incident allegedly took place in a parking lot outside the Rose Garden in Portland following the Trail Blazers' 100-92 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday." 01/20/03
Damon Stoudamire: Police discover bunch of marijuana in his house during response to a burglar alarm where his door was open 02/23/02 So far a court ruled the cops had no right to search inside his home, even though the door was open, even though there may have been a victim inside or the intruder.
Cited for possessing marijuana during a traffic stop in Washington 11/22/02
On 03/21/03 charges are dropped as long as he stays out of trouble for 12 months.
July 3, 2003 Stoudamire gets caught at Tucson Airport with Illegal Drugs. He had it in foil which kept setting off the metal detector. See kids, drugs make you stupid. NOW his lawyers claim that once again it's an illegal search and seizure. You see, He's special, he's above the law. Court set for September 29, 2003.
Zach Randolph: While in High School, 30 days Juvenile detention for Shoplifting. 30 Days Of House Arrest for a BATTERY Charge. 30 Days Juvenile Detention for receiving stolen property such as guns, of which he sold one.
Arrested and charged for underage drinking. 05/02 He pleaded GUILTY.
April 2003 2 game suspension for sucker-punching Ruben Patterson, breaking his left eye-socket.
Arrested for DUII 12/02/03 0219 booked into Justice center and released at 0513. Not staying in 1 lane, smell of drugs, no valid Oregon Drivers License.
Reuben Patterson: PORTLAND, Ore. - Trail Blazers forward Ruben Patterson was arrested Monday night on a felony domestic assault charge, the latest Portland player in trouble with the law.
Tualatin police spokesman Sgt. Doug Nafziger said the former Cincinnati Bearcats player was taken into custody after his wife, Shannon, called 911 and said he assaulted her at their home.
Nafziger said that when police got to the couple's home Monday evening, "They found that Mrs. Patterson had minor (injuries)."
Patterson was taken to the Washington County Jail and released after teammate Derek Anderson posted $1,000 bail.
"I made a statement that was accurate but in the heat of the moment was incomplete," Mrs. Patterson said. "Ruben and I had a disagreement this evening. I want the public to know that Ruben did not assault me. I love my husband, and this is a private family matter. I'm embarrassed it became public, and this is something we are working out privately. I respectfully request that we be allowed to do so."
It's not Patterson's first run-in with the law. In 2001, Patterson entered a modified guilty plea in Washington state to attempted rape. Patterson allegedly forced the then-24-year-old nanny of his children to perform a sex act on him the previous year.
Under the agreement, Patterson did not admit guilt, but acknowledged there was enough evidence to convict him.
He was sentenced to a year in jail, but the judge suspended all but 15 days of the sentence, which Patterson served in his Cleveland home. The NBA suspended him for the first five games of last season, his first with the Blazers after signing a six-year, $33.8 million free agent contract following two years with the SuperSonics.
''I'm not no bad guy,'' Patterson said at the news conference in August of 2001 introducing him as a Blazer. ''I'm not no rapist. I'm a great guy.''
Patterson also was convicted of misdemeanor assault in February 2001 for attacking a man who had scratched his car outside a Cleveland nightclub in June 2000.
''Ruben's a good guy. He really is,'' Shannon Patterson said at that same news conference. ''He just made some bad choices and made mistakes. Everyone does.''

I like this trade from a grizzlies point if they can resign Wells at the end of the season. He might be a typical dickhead but for the Grizz's sake let's hope that he was just trying to fit in with his Portland chain gang. He can flat out score and with the players around him he should put up good numbers. For atleast this year anyways because next year when Kobe is in Memphis he might take a backseat.

Re: Radoslav Nesterovic
After watching the Spurs blow it against the Lakers tonight, I have to concur. Rasho is fcuking brutal. I think this clearly brings to light what Robinson mean to the team (especially now that they're 9-10), which was more than just a warm body at the center spot. The Admiral did all the little, intangible things playing off Duncan that evolved from working alongside him for so many years.
Rasho, it seems, does not have a goddamn clue. At the quarter mark of the season he is easily one of the biggest culprits for the Spurs' mediocre start.
On a semi-related note, I could not be more pleased with that crybaby bitch McGrady suffering through a Vancouver Grizzlie-like losing streak which hit 17 games tonite. The Magic are terrible and it's all his fault.
well I suppose the coaching mess and Juwan Howard have something to do with it, but for brevity's sake, let's blame the bitch......

Rasha...NBA update
I am not trying to slag my man Todd Maculloch (sp) but Rasha seems to run the same way Maculloch ran. You know that over 7' foot white boy run...the one where it looks like they are jumping from cobblestone to cobblestone. I honestly think they signed him because he can run up and down the floor and looks like he doesn't limp or have knee problems.
I watched the Clips game last night and besides the hype about Lebron, Darius Miles, Q and how much Miles meant to the community and fans of LA, the Clips rookie post Kaman (sp), not looking too bad. Have seen him twice. He hustles, looks like he has some defensive ability and can score and rebound a little. Plus he's fukcing ugly and has a Toppy's $8 haircut.
Spurs look out matched against the Lakers.
TO...won't last. They cannot have four 6'9- 6'8 players shoot 16 trifecta's a night while 6'10 beanpole Bosh sits inside waiting for rebounds and put-backs. They do however have a more potent offence right now and I can see matchup problems until Jalen starts preaching about his fab five days and how much he was (is) the man.
Still hoping my Sonics can get a reliable big man for a playoff run?

Even if the sonics get a big man they are no match for DALLAS or the LAKERS, the lakers are going to clear house in the playoffs, i hate shaq but am a big payton fan so i hope gary can win a championship!
Unlike the RANGERS OF THE NHL, THE LAKERS SEEM TO BE BUYING THE CHAMPIONSHIP NOW!

The difference is one man CAN win in the NBA where as in the NHL a system can win. Whether the sonics get a big man or not they are still 6-8th best in the west. But if this was the NHL they would trap and play shitty hockey and advance. Where as in the NBA one man can take over and influence things on his own. In the end unfortunately SHAQ is the difference and as far as he wants to go the Lakers will follow.

Kobe's game-winning J against the Nugs last night was a pretty good example of why the Lakers are going to be a dynasty when this season is all said and done.
When push comes to shove, they have four different guys who can beat you when the game is on the line....while other good Denver defenders were matching up against Shaq, Payton and Malone (who would all have been decent choices for taking the last shot in their own right), poor ol' Jon Barry was left to defend KB8 on the perimeter, mano-a-mano.
That didn't turn out so well for Rick Barry's kid.
As for other NBA teams....howabout them Grizz. I believe they're something like 9-1 in their past 10, and are back on a mini two-game winning streak with victories over Sacramento (huge) and Miami (not so huge). After spending all of his time in Vancouver languishing on the end of the bench, Stromile Swift finally looks like he's going to be as good as advertised. Nice to see it only took him four years to figure that out.

Leon Smith back in the NBA?
Captain,
I seem to recall us speaking about Smith in the Auld Forums...apparently he's set to join the Knicks sometime this week. Isiah makin' moves:

Isiah is trying to save a kid that grew up on the same streets he did as a kid. Looking out for his fellow Chicagotonian.
What Isiah's first goal should be to do ist to try and get to the bottom of Antonio MCDyss. This guys was going to be one of the best power forwards in basketball until his knee injuries that have cost him already 3 years of his career. They say he is better but just watching him on the court it is quite obvious he is just a shell of himself. He looks to be in great shape but just can't move or get off the floor. I expected his timing to be offf clearly, but it seems he has completely forgotten how to play basketball. I am sure some of this is just rust but I don't know. If I were the Knicks I would be worried because I am sure they have quite a lot invested in him.

Parkhead (Kreskin),
Apparently you and Isiah are of the same mind. Zeke bringing back Coney Island's favourite Starbury was a great move for the Knicks. Although I do seem to remember Van Horn and Marbury being at each others throats during their brief time together in New Jersey...should be interesting to see how they co-exist now.
The Knicks can throw out a starting five of Marbury, Houston, Penny, KVH and Thomas - that's about as good as it gets in the east. They're still fcuked for cap space and won't have a first-round draft pick for the next two years, but at least the Knicks are interesting, and have some star power (which they really haven't had since Ewing was in his prime, or maybe during the brief hayday of Spree).
Phoenix have waved the proverbial white flag on this season. Early word says all the cap room they spared with this trade is to make a run at Kobe in the off-season.

Yes and No. Isiah had to make this trade to shake things up. But I would want no part of Me Myself Marbury. No question he is a talented player but he is a door knob!! All he cares about is his money and his numbers. Never changed from his days in Minnesota. Traded how many times now?
Give till next year then he will dirubt the Knicks too.Parkhead

Sweet.
Drug Abuse. It's not just for the Portland Trailblazers anymore.
Laettner's new "let's load up the VW bus and follow Phish around for the summer" Jesus-tribute hairdo would leave me to believe the former Dookie has been heavy into the hippie lettuce. Laettner was the epitome of clean-cut cornbread for a while there...hopefully Mark Madsen doesn't get addicted to crack. He's all we have left.
