@Bullets4ever: Wizards just traded for Cassell, going all-out this year, they still need to address that thin frontcourt, but their backcourt is amazing

@Bullets4ever: Sources says Wizards are not yet done tweaking their roster, more frontcourt depth is still needed
@JeezyF.Baby: Looks like the Sun isn't ready to set just yet. You gotta wonder if the weakened state of the West factored into this move.
@BucksNation: Question for @JeezyFBaby... Where did this move come from? Do you feel this could stunt Deng's growth?
Suns didnt give up much. Good move.

@RicBucherESPN: Several teams have inquired about Shaquille O'Neal but the Pacers have been firm, they dont want long term salary and would need a lottery pick. Expect him to stay with Indiana for the rest of the season unless someone makes an offer out of nowhere.
@JeezyF.Baby: I definitely think it could. But my sources in the Suns organization have let it slip that they've been extremely disappointed with Shane Battier, which no doubt led to this move. Given that the Suns were able to pull off such a low-risk deal, I suppose this is another "Play now, pay later" move. If Mash asks for more than the Suns' think he's worth, they have no reservations about dumping him and going forward with Luol.
@SportsGuy This LA two step seems like first trade out of the flurry of trades which isnt easy to see a clear winner.
@lakernation: hearing trade talks heating up but it could be a snoozer. Hearing lakers quietly confident. Don't expect to see many moves. Highly value their picks.
@chadford: Suns have sheed on the block but put themselves in a bad position waiting this long to deal. Look for some teams trying to become legit title contenders to give them a call.
@greasemypiston: pistons gm active again in a trade getting good to make front court more solid. Will be a important offseason for this GM.
@drJinyourface: 76ers know they need to upgrade to make a run in the playoffs. Only question is if they can find a good deal.
@mountmyantlers: bucks unhappy with current direction of team. Always active Ian Quailman may be looking to conjure another magic trick.
@thewolfhide: gm was openly shopping a few players earlier this year but talks have cooled down substantially.

@nwamilwakee : welcome our newest member Latrell and his sponsor, Gilbert
@JeezyF.Baby: *snort* Heh. So I hear that their GM heard about this deal while he was on vacation, and flew all the way back to Phoenix just to scream "WHAT THE HECK DID YOU JUST DOOOOOOO" at the owner. Never a dull moment with this dysfunctional bunch.

@ESPNInsider: Some rumors floating around about Kobe house hunting in Milwaukee... Sources reporting Kobe would be willing to take substantially less money (MLE-level) for a 1-year deal with the Bucks... More to come... #Whoa
On a serious note, I wouldn't be opposed to commish not allowing MLE bids on Max level guys so they game doesn't do something silly.
Max-level is objective, homey.
...or is the word i'm looking for subjective? I always get them mixed up
No it's not. It's computer logic. :hihi:
But 1 person may consider, for example, Okur a max money guy... then another may consider him only a 8-9mil/yr guy.
And they probably won't... i'm just being retarded LOL i'm sure people across the baord have thrown MLEs in the FA to good players and were all turned down.
You know what, I'll take the time and address this further.
You should be applauded for the incredible job you have done this past season. You worked hard, gathered assets, and turned those assets into some true beasts. I'm sure there are plenty of us that feel somehow we made a better offer for so-and-so, boo-hoo, but you sealed the deal. You made the offer and got it done. Quit being defensive and take some credit for the bad @$$ job you did this season. You deserve it.
Yes, I've made a crack or two or four about the trades and players you've obtained. I had your 1st, I had to pull against you. If anyone should feel defensive, it's the other party. I truly mean it as a compliment to you. And for you to take it any other way is way too humble or touchy.
If you want to talk about luck, it's a cpu generated sim so a little luck is gonna be involved. But you need to make some things happen so that luck turns your way. You were down 1-3 in both finals, made some adjustments, and won. You made it happen.
I want to see some damn championship swagger from you. YOU'RE NOT A VICTIM, YOU'RE THE F"N CHAMP!
Now get out there and defend it!
*There goes my pep talk for the day.
The first time we did these, instead of making up a silly name like Ian (It's actually really clever), I went with the ESPN truehoop blog for Memphis: http://www.3sob.com/
