OKC has something like 4-5 FIRST round picks in the next 2 drafts - how did we not even work a deal for one of those.
We will get TC back - when healthy, I see him playing with more fire (the whole league saw how bad our front court is). Worst case - we try to trade him in the offseason, for better quality players/1st rd draft pick/starter.
Behind D West - Armstrong, Marks, Ely, Wilcox, Bowen, 86 year old Joe Smith (who B Scott would probably have ridin pine anyway) - that doesn't sound like a solution in the frontline for a West Conf playoff team.
Not to mention, offseason - See ya Wilcox and Smith - then what? who? regroup and wait for the class of '10?
You own an NBA franchise G Shinn - you have a window when you have a special player like CP3 (much like Saints and Brees) - do what it takes to win a title, your revenue will follow.
You are high. I rest my case.Quote:

Do you pay attention. Smith and Wilcox have expiring contracts.Quote:

Can I get a link or qoute of what Hartvey Hornet said, I missed it.Quote:

/sarcasmoff
Now I am convinced these two are the same guy
after this year we'd have NOTHING to show for tyson chandlerQuote:

No, but we would be out of the luxury tax and we'd have expiring contracts to move forward with. Does that compute?Quote:

keep tyson we are out after the first round, we get the lux tax, and we get to hold on to a busted piece of equipment.
the luxury tax is gonna murder us...
we have a starting center??? u mean we have a injured center thats going to be on the bench for a while :hihi: :hihi: :hihi: how does that help usQuote:

I'm done responding to you.Quote:

IMO Tyson is better than Hibbert who plays 12 minutes a game and Javale Magee who plays 15 minutes per game.Quote:

FYI
I wish this trade would have went through
you didn't read the articleQuote:

sometimes guys can't get insurance on their contracts. i believe baron davis and the clippers just ran into that problem

This is suspicious...the thunder could still take chandler if they wanted
define "move forward with"Quote:

I hope they tell TC he cannot sit on the bench as long as he is not playing. Make him feel like the chit he is.
I love how everybody was so willing to give Drew Brees the benefit of the doubt after his THROWING SHOULDER got torn up and the Dolphins rejected him after examining him, but you won't give TC a shot.
You guys are ridiculous. He needs to shut it down this year and we'll be great for next season. Trade Posey - the guy's a bum and MoPete/Sual/JuJu/Peja can combine to do everything he does for us.
It still only pays if a player is forced to retire because of his injuries. What are you missing?Quote:
