    this kid has really come along. I almost would like to see the rockets pick him up to replace Shandon.. my only problem is that he is kind of like shandon. a little undersized. ohh and Jordan loves him, so they will likely keep the kid.

    just an idea

    I thought Hamilton was a 2. If he can play the 3, (or if he is a 3 and I'm a dumbass) then he would probably be an excellent addition to the young nucleus.

    yes Rip is a 2, that's why he was strictly a 6th man until Mitch Richmond went down. At 6'6 and only 185 pounds, he's a Kerry Kittles type, only hopefully less prone to injury.

    speaking of Wizards, former Wiz Felipe Lopez seems like a very savvy pick-up for the T'wolves. He's been a legit scoring option as of late.

    Jordan is comfortable with Hamilton. He's not impressed. He's not dismayed. Michael is very aware of the kid's limitations. Hamilton is a lock to stay...for the simple reason that Jordan is trying to build a young team that can grow together.

    I think Alexander will become a right handed version of Mobley. Man that dude can score. I think in college he averaged 27pts a game.

    actually, Jordan seems to be infatuated with Courtney Alexander, the shot-happy rookie guard they picked up in the Howard deal.

    since Alexander and Rip basically play the same position, one of them has to go, and reports are saying that it may be HAmilton.

    as of late, they've been playing together b/c the Wiz are out of point guards.

    in my opinion, the Wiz would be nuts to let Hamilton go now. It would be a typical Wiz move to lose a young rising star to a contending team though. See Wallace, Rasheed and Webber, Chris.
