I'm eagerly anticipating all the "GarPax, why you no trade no one!?" threads that are bound to pop up now. :smug:

I don't believe Perk was involved in that trade. What I've heard is he's being bought out now & likely heading to the Clippers.

But then again, so much just happened in the last 5 minutes of the deadline, my head is spinning right now so I could be totally wrong about this.

Yea see that's just a stupid move imho. The team is in the thick of the playoff hunt BECAUSE of Knight's play. So now they've completely thrown the chemistry for a loop, added MCW who is good but is a BALL DOMINANT PG with a terrible shot. This could potentially derail the success they've had so far. I get that it's a move for the future and maybe they didn't see Knight as a part of it, but I can't think for the life of me why because he's having a career year & loved playing for J Kidd.


Well this may be why too..

Eh I'd hold off on that one. They still are terrible against winning teams and they just shook up their roster in the middle of their playoff hunt.

I think the true dark horse now is Miami. They just got A LOT better.

building =/= are currently


I'll stick to what I said. Milwaukee's one season turnaround has been very good for a team without a super-star (factoring in that Jabari is both hurt and far from being a super-star, unless you grade players on hype, then :cookiemonster: everyone with good PR is a super-star, LOL)

Miami, yes. They are now a real threat again. The best thing that could happen for the East for NBA ratings will be that 1st round Heat-Cavs matchup.

That would be awesome if it happens.

Yea I agree the Bucks turnaround has been pretty remarkable but at the same time Knight was BIG part of that. We'll see how it all shakes out. These final 30 games or so are going to be interesting in both conferences.

Knight was going to want a lot of money. They probably felt like they didn't need him in the future because they have 2 future superstars.

Philly is being run into the ground. I feel bad for their fans.

No Gerald Green either...sorry knoxville :(

haha yeah I noticed. phoenix traded just about everybody but green surprisingly. I figured he would be a part of the dragic or Thomas deal at the very least. bulls im sure could of had him for some 2nd round draft picks, unfortunate

I'm one of those fans. My entire family is from Philly & they've been a favorite team of mine my entire life. Yes, it indeed does suck. At this point, I have no clue what the hell their FO is thinking. I guess they want to field a team of all Centers next season... :dunno:

Tayshaun Prince.... Come on down....

im sorry but i have made up my own rule

its called "**** the 2004 pistons...do not sign any player from that team"

Ben Wallace and Rip Hamilton have brought enough shitty play and diva attitudes to our organization

i don't know if Tay is that type of player but hes was on that team and i have banned any player from that team

Well he does seem like less of a douche then Wallace & Rip, but honestly, I don't really want him on the team. As you are well aware, I'm pretty satisfied with the roster as is. Now that it's fully healthy, I think we're going to see a lot of W's in the next two months.

Oh, please enlighten us with your vast knowledge of why the Bulls can't win either, especially since we're fielding a full healthy roster for the 1st time coming up. This should be amusing........
