Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Suns bonding off the court

One game can be a fluke...Don't forget Orlando beat them down like a drunk in a cage match. Beat both Boston and the Lakers on the road and you've got peoples's attention...

Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Warriors players want Jackson traded

Hllywd;
Besides the standing on stop of a car and brandishing a gun incident...Jackson had made a general nuisance of himself...Bewteeen Tinsley, Artest, and Jackson, the Pacers had some characters...

It has to be a team with a no-nonsense leader that will jack him up when he gets out of line...Kobe's Lakers, and Garnett's Celts are great examples...

Let's get this straight...Stephen Jackson has a LOT of baggage...Sometimes skills don't seem so great when you bring the sideshow that Jackson does...

Actually, anybody that signs him should have a good health clause in his contract, because chances are they are going to need it...

Sorry, you may have to pay someone to "haul" Curry off....Metro Houston has a strict "NO LUMBERING BEHEMOTHS" policy...

We should have a good idea of the Suns team when they play the Lakers on the 13th..

Their only saving grace is that this team does have some nice talent and with the mad scientist at the helm, they will score a lot of points....This high octane offense translates into numbers for their players and thus should make them more marketable...I think...

That Tracy McGrady is gone...What is left is a unmotivated, passive injury machine with a sneaker contract...To be honest, the Rockets have done better than I expected with their "no-name" squad without TMAC...I say ship Tracy to New York for scraps and let's see if this overachieving team can make it to the playoffs..

Well..Ol' Nellie needs to be gone..Most would agree that the mad rantings and line-up concoctions does not substitute for decent coaching.....Once Golden State gets on board with some decent leadership, perhaps a nice **** can find his way there...

Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Grizzlies not waiting for Iverson

Maybe...but with the Warriors around, never say never....Then Don Nelson could start like four small guards and a SF and claim to be competitive...

Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Suns bonding off the court

Well the Suns need a good break after last year...I just hope they can keep up a decent level of play to make the playoffs...Nobody is kidding themselves that the SPurs, Denver, LA, Utah, Portland and New Orleans won't make the playoffs...Bottom Line is the Suns will have to fight for one of the remaining spots..

jgb, you know we got plenty of Idiot GMs still left...The more your fire them, the more some clueless owner hires his best buddy from Kindergarden to be an NBA GM...Someone will give him more than a one year deal...

Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Jackson's agent: Nellie can't be trusted

In that case, I'm misunderstood and I want appreciation more money...Then again my mom used to say "you can want in one hand and crap in the other...and see which one fills up first.."

Not sure what it means but sounded cool...

Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Jackson's agent: Nellie can't be trusted

Trust in Nellie is probably not the whole scope of the issue...Ol' Nellie is well...cuck-ooo for cocoa puffs...Not sure what caused it..could be Dementia, Alzheimers or an all PG line-up experiment gone bad...Bottom line, I am not sure what this guy is capable of right now...(Well, actually I am sure he ain't capable of coaching an NBA team...), but probably he's borderline insane....

That being sad, having Captain Jackass and crazy uncle Nellie on the same team can't be good...Its kind of like checking your fuel level in your gas tank with a match...Something's going to blown up real bad...

Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Warriors players want Jackson traded

Jackson will only be happy once he's initially poisoned a locker room...After that, all the thrill is gone...

Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Warriors players want Jackson traded

Agreed, Hllywd....What this team needs to do is to cart Dr. Demento off to the looney bin and hire a real coach...An owner that had a clue would be nice as well..

Posted Tuesday November 10, 2009, About: Rockets, McGrady at odds again

Well, thing thing about this is that some team out there will be will to fork over big money to TMAC...He will get more than the MLE...

Posted Monday November 09, 2009, About: Source: Iverson considering retirement

A word of wisdom...Typing with all CAPS does not get your point across any better....And since it's your first post...This is what we do on FANNATION.. debate and talk about sports and players...If you can't deal with it, try YAHOO Sports...

Posted Monday November 09, 2009, About: Source: Iverson considering retirement

I am glad you believe...For what purpose? To squess out an extra 3 or 4 wins for this abyssmal team? And stunt the growth of Mike Conley and O.J.Mayo? It's not like A.I. can get this collection of talent to the playoffs...

And if A.I. didn't realize this before the season started, shame on him...and the stuff he was smoking....
