Love it for Portland. We get a guy to fill in at center for us for the rest of the season, and fight for a playoff spot. Outlaw could've been good, but he was injured early, hasn't gotten back yet, and needs the ball to score. He didn't really fit in the system we had. Downside with the loss of Outlaw is that he and Roy were good buddies. Blake, well, no one likes him. Except for Nate. This also gives Bayless and maybe Mills time to shine. I'd love to see Camby maybe be re-signed next year too, if things work out for the rest of this season.

Bulls and Knicks as the favorites to land T-Mac and his 23 million dollar expiring contract. According to this report, the Rockets will decide tommorow. sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4920108For all I care, the Knicks can have him

Jeezus, there's a whole lot of 1st round picks being talked about for old ass has-beens or nobody youngsters...so sad The contract is whats valuable here. The Bulls would just dump T-Mac in the off-season. They want to dump Hinrich off to a 3rd party for expirings (most likely Lakers or Celtics). If that happens the Bulls have money to sign 2 of the 2010 FA's (Joe Johnson and Bosh would be ideal) Rose - Johnson - Deng - Bosh - Noah I just hope 2010 isnt a disappointment and players actually opt out. Loading up for it is a bad idea, but its better than being a mediocre team ever year.

I think the Bulls talk is just fluff from the Rockets to use as leverage. Knicks are the only ones willing to give anything close to what the Rockets want for TMac. I agree 100% with the last sentence OKC said though. The Knicks could stay the course right now and probably be a mediocre team, for certain, challenge for the playoffs and get booted for years in a row...OR, they can just go for it, go for the home run.
This was basically the plan all along, so the Knicks fans getting cold feet now need to take a step back and realize this was really what was supposed to happen all along.
Also, assuming the Rockets take Hughes instead of Harrington, Knicks may then trade Harrington to the Bulls for Tyrus Thomas. That would be fun to watch in D'Antoni's system.
And, Celtics apparently still want nate Robinson. I say give him to the Celts for whatever small contracts are needed (like Giddens/Bill Walker type guys), and just get a future 1st round pick.
Should be a fun next couple of days.

His most likely destination is Chicago. If Chicago got Wade I don't see how they don't also get Bosh or LeBron as they both want to win and win now and playing alongside Wade has to be very enticing.

Jamison to ClevelandSalmons to MilwaukeeI think that puts Cleveland over the Lakers as favorites for the title. And the chances of LeBron staying in Cleveland just increased tremendously. Mo-West-LeBron-Jamison-Shaq is gonna be hard to beat. Personally, I would've loved to see Amare and LeBron play together.

The moment CLE lose, the entire Cavs fan base will disappear forever.

He could be playing for the last contract of his career, so it doesn't matter if he's happy or not, he's gotta play.

Eh, would seem that way considering what's gone down this season (our centers ). If that were to happen, I wouldn't mind tanking for a guard to play alongside Roy. A la John Wall or Evan Turner.

Wizards gonna get Ed Davis now? I don't know what's going to happen with us this season.. I know I want us to get a C or a SG.. I still want Arenas to come back, and some people are saying he may.

The more Stephen Curry plays the more I'm convinced Monta Ellis should be traded. Curry continues to flirt with triple-doubles while putting up 20+ppg. He's already outproducing him (when Ellis is out) and is a much better point guard. Watson also blew up last game.

My guy Tyrus traded to Charlotte. Disappointing. But might as well get something for him because we were not going to offer him a contract after the season.
2010 Friendly!

When has he choked? He took a bad Cavs team to the Finals and didn't get enough help against the Magic last year. How is that choking?
