OK

So far we have Antawn Jameson to the Wizards for Jerry Stackhouse, Christian Laettner and the draft rights to Devin Harris

And the big kahones, T-Mac is going to Houston for Steve Francis, Cuttino Mobley and Kelvin Cato. Going to the Rockets is Juwan Howard, Tyronn Lue and Reece Gaines as well.

Also a couple of questions. Where will Kobe/Shaq end up? Any other crazy rumors floating around? I heard a straight up trade AI for Vincalamar Carter, but won't happen because AI would hate it up here in Canada. Will the Raptors make the playoffs? laugh.gif

Up too now it has been a very interesting off season, and I have a feeling it is just going to get more so.

McGrady on the Rockets = I will watch more Rockets games
Francis and Jameer Nelson on the Magic = I will watch more Magic games

Conclusion..

Me happy! laugh.gif

I think the Rockets are going to definately be a team to watch this year. T-Mac and Yao, also Jowan Howard will help.

As for the Magic, I don't know if they really got all that much better. Francis can be a force sometimes but commits waaaay too many turnovers. Of course they did get the #1 draft pick overall, so I could be talking out of my ass.

I heard another trade rumor. Shaq for Jason Kidd, Kenyon Martin, and Richard Jefferson. RIDICULOUS.

houston will probably be a contender, depending on the dallas/shaq deal, in the midwest divison. san antonio will stick with manu, they'll talk with kobe but he wont come here, he'll probably go to LAC. magic will do pretty good with stevie franchise and that high schooler they got (i forgot his name.) and new orleans is screwed!
MoeMan949222
what would've been nice if steve francis stayed with the rockets so there can be a combination of all three of them (yao, t-mac, and steve) but hey t-mac isn't for free!!
darth stuart
derek (fisher) may go to houston as well. and phoenix withdraws their chase at kobe.

Any news for Shaq going to Mavs? Something I dont understand is that suns got steve nash and starburry, right? They are both great PG's... Why?
Spency234
If by Starburry you mean Stephon Marbury, he plays for the Knicks now. Did for about half of last season too.

Okei, I am bit of. I cant watch nba where I live :'(
Spency234
Coach K is staying in Duke.

Sooooo, that probably means Kobe will leave Shaq will stay. Just my guess.
darth stuart
hopefully they both will leave
MoeMan949222
you know what! I am really looking forward to the knicks this year. Hopefully Allen Houston will be back. Because he is a very well respected player.
Spency234
Ginobili going to the Nuggets?
darth stuart
i don't care what those stories are from manu isn't going anywhere. he's staying put in SA. They will match any offer made by nuggets. the spurs are also going to resign bowen, or as i like to say "bruce bruce". and the suns are gonna make a move for hedo.
Spency234
Shaq to Miami
darth stuart
shaq is going to miami, manu is staying in SA, brent barry to SA, bruce bowen is staying in SA, kobe is making his demands to 2/3- he's going to memphis
Spency234
Payton most likely gone.
darth stuart
the spurs are also trying to sign malone
Spency234
Haha I'm going to laugh if Kobe still leaves.
darth stuart
yea, i read that he's interested in the 2 LA teams and Mephis. the only one that he isnt making demands at is mephis...it'll be funny if he went there. and heard on leno: it was really hot in la today, like 100 degrees? we already lost someone to the heat...shaq! but the Spurs are trying to court malone into coming to SA
Spency234
KILL MEE NOWWW sad.gif

EDIT: PLEASE quit being a bitch Vince.
Spency234

MoeMan949222

The thing about that is, that the team that played really well together just went to the Lakers! TO also got Alston. It's not the same team at all. tongue.gif
darth stuart
well, even if the new heat is the team that plays well, they still have to deal with detroit and idianna in east not to mention orlando who got a lilttle bit better this offseason. so i dont think they'll make it to the finals. the spurs will probably do well, but im not going to make a bold prediction like that with all these signings in the west. phoenix, houston, denver and others are all lookin better.
Spency234
Even with Shaq on Miami, your Pistons are looking pretty DAMN good in the East, especially with K-Mart going to the West.

Only time will tell though..
darth stuart
yea detroit to the fullest resigning 'sheed wallace! ne other major deals goin on so far spency?
Spency234
The Nets are going down the SHITTER.
blinksoad07
yea, no martin, no kittles and a sucky kidd
Spency234
Interesting twist on the Kobe case, and the Shaq/Kobe relationship.
AnThRaX
If he did it I hope he gets a long sentence.
blinksoad07
if u know nething about the way the prison sytem works, the you'd know that if ure rich or famous, you either get sentenced for little or no time with a small fine (to the person.) so even if he is found guilty then he'll be out by LA's first game and will pay a couple grand.
Spency234
Payton gone.
blinksoad07
fox is too
Spency234
Bye bye "Dream Team Era"
Spency234
And you thought the offseason craziness was done. tongue.gif

Carter HIMSELF says he wants out. (I don't know what I'm going to do. First the Leafs, now this)

Kidd going to Timberwolves?
MoeMan949222
My favorite team (NJ Nets) are done for. They lost K-mart, now KIDD!!!! holllllllllly shittttttttt. And even Jay-z wants a piece of them to bring back to Brooklyn. dry.gif



There's always Knick's! ph34r.gif
Timberpup
Did somebody forget about the T-Wolves? biggrin.gif
blinksoad07
yea the t'wolves are alright, but see this is about the offseason. and they didn't do much this offseason, so.... and what about kidd?
Spency234
He's not goin anywhere, just looked like he was for a while.
