    The issue was not about how knowledgeable we are. I was referring to your inability to argue the point. If we know nothing about what you were referring, why don't you enlighten us.



    That's right. Go to a Rocket's fan site and piss and moan about fans with Rocket-colored glasses. - typical troll response




    Wow, you can read a media guide. Congratulations!:D

    So predictable...your responses prove my point and what's funny is that you don't even know it. Enjoy your little make-believe kingdom you have set up here cause that's all it is. I'm off to look for REAL and insiteful conversation.

    Carry on with your pathetic ways....they are a laugh to the sensible fan.

    oops. Sorry, I must have mistook you for all those unintelligent and biased Mavs fans here who think Nitwitz defense is fine, and he can pass.

    Actually they wouldn't. The only way Rashard could come to Dallas is to sign for the exception. By trading for KG they would still be over the salary cap so they would still have the exception to sign Rashard. It may take Nash, and Finley to get KG in Dallas but as a Dallas fan I could live with that. Rashard would be our starting SG, and KG's leadership would more than make up for Finley's. Dallas would end up with a younger, more athletic, better rebounding, better defending lineup that can still score just as well.

    PG - NVE
    SG - 'Shard
    SF - Dirk
    PF - KG
    C - Raef

    I don't care who you root for you have to admit that's a pretty damn good lineup.

    With all that being said, I don't think KG will be comming to Dallas. Even if the Wolves wanted to trade KG why would they trade him to a division rival? If their goal is to rebuild and eventually get out of the first round I don't think trading KG to a team where they'll have to face him in the playoffs (not to mention several times a year) would be the smartest move.

    Why not? He's athletic enough. Most 2's are in the 6'6" range (Lewis is 6'10"). He has the range, and would be an outstanding rebounder at the 2. He may get beat by some of the smaller guards like Mobley but when Mobley (or any other smaller 2 guard) gets by 'Shard they will have to deal with 3 guys in the paint that can blcok shots (including 2 of the top 5 shot blockers in the NBA in Raef, and KG).

    He's really not quick enough for the two, and would get beat by...everybody. And also, he has no handles. At all.

    And most importantly, Rashard wouldn't want to play the 2.

    What's up Texas G?? It's been awhile.

    LOL....It's funny how fans here a couple of months ago said that adding Lewis would make the Rockets true contenders are now saying that Lewis sucks. Only after Rashard told Houston to f-off do you change your opinion.

    Now there's an intelligent, unbiased comment from a Dallas fan.

    Nellie,
    We know about your posts at the Dallas BBS where you said that you're becoming the arch nemisis of cc.net. If you actually believe that we care that much of opposing fans, and you turn your posting career into calling cc.net pathetic and generalizing everyone like a troll who enjoys the arch nemesis Internet role (like you are doing right now), you will get booted from here.

    Consider this an intelligent, unbiased prediction from a long-time cc.net poster.

    I call it like it is and fans here don't like that because you want to make up your own truth and reality. That's the bottom line. If you wanna boot me...fine, I don't come here that much anyway and it ends up being a waste of time when I do. But let's call it what it is...biggetry.

    Actually, Dirk would be a better fit at SG than 'Shard.

    But that's certainly an intriguing lineup.

    If you have ever watched Finley play you will notice that the exact same can be said about him. Although his handles were much better in the playoffs last year. Finley didn't really develope (decent at best) ball handling skills until last year when he was 27 years old. Rashard is only 22 so by that estimate he has plenty of time to develope that part of his game.

    Nellie,

    (BTW, if\when you're kicked out of CC.net, or as you see it, 'DumbassRocketFans.net', and you're trolling withdrawals compell you to re-register here, choose another screen name. Nellie's actually cool.)

    Since we're all stupid and delusional around here, care to actually address the topic as a 'long-time Mavs fan', i.e. bring some civility to the savages?

    IMHO, if the TWolves trade KG, they should be kicked out of the league. You don't trade players of KG's caliber, you get them better teammates.

    It's already been pointed out to me that Nellie is posting quite a bunch of slanderous garbage this morning about people here and the site on other forums. Looks like he got very frustrated because a Rocket fan troll unleashed a tirade on a 10-visitor site he frequents and he's looking for revenge. Please don't give trolls the light of day. Morons like Nellie are frustrated in life... championship envy, they're ugly as sin, pecker measurement comes up in millimeters ... who knows what the reason is, but the internet is the only place for them to get any satisfaction. Just don't give it to them. Fans of other teams are always welcome here, but not if they are here with zero respect to solely defame the team and/or site.

    If we're a waste of time, Nellie, then why don't you troll through a dictionary and improve your spelling? That would be a more useful pursuit than searching for someone here that cares about your opinions.

    Here's a smilie face for you. :)
