    Yep

    Rafer led Orlando to the finals with the big "1-1/2"

    He'd be pretty good in Minny, they have some scorers that needs a set up guy.

    I hope New York gets swept. Melo won't lead you anywher, neither will amare' without nash.

    Ironically if new york went after nash instead of melo, does anyone believe they'd be on the verge of getting swept?

    If Billups didn't get hurt they probably wouldn't be on the verge of getting swept.

    D'Antoni is an idiot. He can't get this group to play hard because he doesn't care about defense. I have NEVER liked him as a coach and as long as he's there Knicks will be losing

    that and he is far from the offensive genius that everyone claims him to be. He was damned lucky to have Nash all those years in Phoenix.

    Mr. Pringles knows that his job is in jeopardy, so he's trying to downplay getting swept any way he can.

    LOL @ Dantoni. Mind of a 12 year old.

    The guy lacks class and has a huge ego for someone who hasn't really done anything in the NBA.

    Watching him flail and yell during timeouts is always entertaining.

    Until D'antoni involves defense in his style of play, we will never hear the end of his whinning when his teams get beat in the 1st round... which by the way, is pretty damn often... :rolleyes:

    I also wonder if Dirk is really a lesbian...

    The point is, no one will ever know and really, who cares? Worry about your team.

    I think Rondo would have better stats in Minny.

    Who cares? With the right players, Rondo's proved himself capable of being a starting point guard on a championship caliber team. How many point guards can you say that about?

    Rondo did what a player is supposed to do when surrounded by superior talent and knowledge. He listened, learned and deferred. So, instead of jocking and riding coattails, he improved his game. Long after they are retired, he will have a fruitful career.

    He owes a debt, not for a ring, but rather for the teaching moments. And he is a better player for it.

    There was a reason why Rondo and Pierce were the only untouchables in the KG/Allen trades. Everyone involved in the deals to create the big three knew about Rando. The Celtics were willing to give up Al Jefferson pre-injury and not Rondo. That should tell you something.
